    We were welcomed so warmly. They were very accommodating and helpful. Loved the cool dip in the pool after a very hot summer's day. A big breakfast each morning kept us fuelled each day for exploring.

    Money in Morocco is a constant challenge and at every turn there's someone trying to get more money out of you. Whilst we didn't experience that from the staff, the hotel policy converts EUR to Moroccan dirhams at 10.9 to 1 EUR regardless of the actual exchange rate (which was 10.5 at the time). As we couldn't pay in EUR we lost out on their bad exchange rate. So advice is to bring enough EUR to pay the hotel bill or you'll spend more on a bad conversion.

    The staff were wonderfully friendly and helped us plan trips to enjoy our time in Marrakech. The pool was excellent to cool down in after a hot morning and the rooftop terrace helped us dry off quickly. The team were fantastic with our kids as well

    Leaving

    An absolute gem, the Riad is lovely and the staff exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble, The welcome was warm, Rashid spent time with us to explain the city highlights and ensuring that we wouldn't get lost again in the labyrinth of Marrakech. Our room was comfortable, clean and spacious, Breakfast was filling, with cakes, pastries, pancakes, fresh orange juice, jams and Pekmez. The Riads location was perfect for exploring, though the traffic on the main road can be a little alarming, we soon got used to dodging mopeds and cycles on the little market streets. The beauty of Marrakech is that you spot something new on every turn. Thank you for hosting us on our holiday, we miss it already.

    We loved our stay here, from the transfer from the airport until the day we left. The staff were so friendly, the room was great and had everything we needed, and the hammam was fabulous and great value. We would return without hesitation next time we are in Marrakech

    This is a lovely Riad to stay in Marrakesh! It’s a great size and feels like a calm and cool retreat while in the bustling city. The rooms are clean and comfortable and staff were so welcoming and friendly. Said and Rashid were wonderful, as well as the hammam and massage team! Breakfast every morning on the terrace is a peaceful, sunny start to the day. My friends and I went for the hammam and massage treatments on offer and it was an amazing part of our trip and we appreciated the convenience of experiencing them at our accommodation. The location is really convenient as well, super easy to explore the Medina and other spots. Thanks to the team at the Riad!

    It was not that easy to find the location of the Riad, specifically using the gps. May be some additional information may help the future guests.

    Shower didn't really work. I couldn't give them the opportunity to rectify this however as we were running for the airport and it might have been a temporary issue.

    Lovely hospitality. Stunning architecture. Comfortable rooms and really enjoyed breakfast on the rooftop terrace. We were only there for a night but they made us feel very welcome

    The room felt a bit exposed at night as we could hear people coming in late at night, twice trying to get into our room.

    The staff were so friendly. The food was amazing. I'm glad the hotel contacted us to arrange dinner for the night we arrived. Great tagine and breakfast excellent too. We liked the location. Loved the terrace for a bit of relaxing, coffee, sunshine.

    Nothing.

    This is a beautiful riad located in the old city medina just a quick walk from the square by the main souk. The room was comfortable and there's a terrace on the top floor with a view of the city. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed every minute of our time there.

    It was difficult to find. It might be easier to find if you drive to the Medina first and then click the directions link from the bookings.com app. Be sure not to arrive during the call to prayer. The cook who answered the door does not speak English and kept saying no to all of our questions. Just wait until the prayer is over. All of the men speak English and are very friendly. It was our favorite hotel stay in Morocco.

    It is exactly like the photos, maybe better! The rooms are comfortable, the staff is great! Breakfast has multiple styles of breads and pancakes, fruit, fresh squeezed OJ, coffee and tea. It is very close to the Medina but in a quiet neighborhood.

    A really lovely Riad just outside the Medina which is nice after exploring the fun but noisy square and souks. The Manager/owner of the Riad was so welcoming to our family of 4, happy to help us with any extra requests in preparation for our flight the following day - he even had a baggage weight so we could check our luggage weights which was great. We had a nice big room - beds were really comfortable (not hard like they often can be in Morocco), and our bathroom was very spacious, complete with a big bath. Breakfast on the terrace was good with fresh fruit salad, juice, coffee/tra etc - kids loved the fresh pancakes. This was our second stay in Marrakech, previously staying inside the Medina but should we return we would choose this Riad again for comfort and service.
