    Marrakech was a bit of a culture shock and would have been great for three nights. The bed could have been better.

    The staff were amazing and really looked after us. Very professional. The place was spotless.

    Staying at Riad Ekla Boutique for the second time felt like returning to a home away from home. The charm of this riad is undeniable, with its stunning traditional Moroccan architecture. What truly sets Riad Ekla apart is the exceptional hospitality, the staff goes above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed and cared for. I want to extend a special thank to the entire team for making our stay so memorable.

    Nothing to mention

    Definitely recommend this riad for anyone visiting Marrakech! It’s beautifully decorated, has a little pool inside and the terrace upstairs. Everything looks like in the photos and even better. Location is great, everything is reachable by foot. Delicious breakfast is included. People working here are so helpful and kind, they make you feel like home. Special thanks to Ilyas!

    It was our first time staying in Marrakech, and wow—what a pleasant surprise! This was all thanks to Ilyas and the crew at Ekla Boutique Hotel, located in the heart of the old city (Medina). The riad itself is centrally situated, within walking distance of all the major attractions such as the souks and many historical landmarks and buildings. Our room was spacious, very well maintained, and equipped with everything we needed. Breakfast was sufficiently varied, and the other amenities of the riad—such as the pool and the on-site restaurant—added great value to our stay. Ilyas and his team truly went above and beyond throughout our visit. Nothing was ever too much for them, and thanks to their deep knowledge of the city, we received countless local tips and tricks that allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in Moroccan culture. We couldn't have asked for a better introduction to Morocco. Thank you, Ilyas and Ekla Boutique Hotel!

    We wanted to drink a glass of wine (our own) on the terrace, but were told to only drink in the room. We were staying a lot in Riads and it was accepted to drink "away" from other guests if possible.

    The staff is excellent and so friendly. They make you feel like home.

    Our stay at Riad Ekla Boutique was simply incredible. The riad's location was perfect, providing easy access to many places. The riad is extremely clean and well-maintained, with the scent of orange blossom that fills the Entire Riad. The rooms are beautifully appointed, blending traditional Moroccan design with modern comforts. What truly sets Riad Ekla Boutique apart is its exceptional hospitality. The staff go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels welcomed and cared for. Whether it's serving a delicious breakfast on the rooftop terrace or simply offering a friendly smile and helpful advice. We had an unforgettable stay in this beautiful Riad, thanks to all the teams, including the cooks who were super nice and who made super delicious breakfasts. Thanks a lot to Mustapha, the waiter, who was super attentive and friendly. The reception staff was also exceptional, especially Mustapha at the reception, who was very friendly and careful during his service, and who helped us a lot and guided us very well. We can't wait to come back!

    My room was next to the entrance so sometimes when people walked past it was a little noisy but nothing too loud and disruptive

    The location for me was perfect along with some lovely sitting areas where you could just sit and relax after a long day in the sun But most of all the staff were absolutely lovely and welcoming and so kind, always willing to help and say hello and good morning. Which a lovely group of people

    We read a few comments about the Riad and the staff and this made us feel more confortable. It is all true: staff are really helpfull. The food was good. Love the bread they served on a daily basis, for breakfast and dinner. We woke up very estou in the morning due to the prayers, which is something fully understandable. For those who are light sleepers, please take ear plugs and this Will help. All the transfers were confortable and Nice. Once you get aquainted with the location and how to walk around inside de Medina, ir gets easier for sure. The mint tea and the smell of Orange blossom were amazing. Ahh, and the cats too! So sweet and friendly. If you have a chance, go to gueliz and have dinner at La Pallette and try the tiramisu with amlou! Amazing There is plenty to see in Marraquexe. Dont rush Plan before and book some places before Thank you guys for everything

    The shower pressure was not good and the holder doesn’t hold it at a good angle to shower. One morning we couldn’t get any hot water after waiting 15 minutes.

    They only provide 1 water bottle doesn't matter how many days you stay. We stayed for 3 nights and were charged for extra water, whereas on the website it says free water. Hamam and massage- the staff was not very welcoming and was rushing. It was our first time so we were clueless the staff didn't explained anything to begin with and were rushing alot.

    Riad staff were very friendly and welcoming.
