Our AC wasn't working properly, the staff did try to fix it but I think there was some problem with the coolant so probably need to get a service person in! We slept with the window open into the centre of the Riad which helped cool the room down and we weren't particularly bothered by any noise - but of course depends what you are used to.

We really enjoyed our stay at Riad Bab Lakhmiss! It is such good value for money and the owner Frank and the night manager Abdel are so lovely. Big shout out to Abdel who sat down with us on the first evening and explained some tips and tricks for the area, and showed us an offline map app to use. We really appreciated this! The breakfast was lovely warm pastries and bread, with a selection of jams and some cream cheese, alongside orange juice and either tea or coffee. Its simple but yummy! The pool was actually slightly bigger than I expected, and was perfect for cooling off in during the very hot June weather! The interiors were lovely and you really do get that riad experience at such a low price point. Would highly recommend for your stay in Marrakech.

Some of the surfaces could do with a more thorough clean, like the bedroom floors and bathroom counters/shower.

The staff were so lovely and helpful. Abdel stayed awake for us as our plane was delayed, and we checked in late. He showed us an app to navigate the area offline and bookmarked all the highlights in Marrakech for us. The lovely man running the breakfast service remembered our drink order and had it ready for us without asking the following mornings. Clean sheets and towels, and they made the bed for us each day while we were out :)

The location! Download maps.me before you come because google maps and other maps will never show you the correct route. We got lost for almost an hour in the medina in the middle of the night because our taxi driver couldn’t get any closer to the riad. Thankfully, the staff are so wonderful they guided us step by step and we arrived safely.

The Riad is located inside the medina in a residential area. It’s beautifully decorated, rooms are well equipped and cleaning takes place daily. The breakfast is also very reasonable and delicious. There is a terrace as well and offers good views. Staff are very friendly and always ready to help! Rooms overall feel very cozy and comfortable.

Breakfast

Stayed in December 2024

The pool is rather a decoration than a facility (it is located in the hall and it’s quite dirty). So it’s not a private pool as the description says.

Everyone was very polite and we liked the breakfast. The room was clean and comfortable. The interior design was pretty.

Riad Bab Lakhmiss & its people are great! I stayed for 2 weeks - longer than the usual guest, but it was a great place to explore Morocco from. Breakfast is different every day, and my bed got made and received fresh and clean towels each day, too! The staff are very friendly, helpful, and caring. They can help you navigate the medina streets & think of where to go. Most guests spend the whole day outside, but because of my chronic illness I also spent quite some time at the riad & could enjoy the quiet rooftop and the refreshing pool. The dinners they offer are delicious & great value for the price - they make it vegetarian upon request :) The daytrips (I took 4) were also easily arranged and are definitely worth checking out!

Close to town

Clean

Stayed in October 2024

Cleaniless was generally acceptable (no horrors). But rooms could be little cleaner (e.g. the floors needed a sweep, and the bathroom was reasonable but could be better). The pool however was not clean and I decided not to use it (the water looked green and you couldn't see the bottom). Water was replaced during last day of my stay.

Excellent location in the medina of Marrakesh. Great value for the price. Very tasty 3 course meal on my first night cooked by the riad staff, I would highly recommending a meal there. Breakfast on terrace was lovely, and a very helpful team throughout my stay. Small bedroom but comfortable.

The breakfast included was very good although very high in carbs

The property was very central and the staff were extremely helpful in helping us organise a taxi back to the airport

Stayed in September 2024

Surrounding area felt kind of dangerous and taxis could never find the place. Breakfast was not the best. Extra charges at the end. Was difficult to find your way to town

It was peaceful and the staff were nice. Felt homely. They organised transport to the riad

Stayed in August 2024

The pool was dirty ,and the staff doesn’t know English so it was little bit complicated to communicate.

The property was very comfortable .

Only downside is the narrow streets of the Medina and the hawkers trying to take advantage of lost tourists. Just use google maps and ignore them and you will be fine.

Lovely riad in the Medina. Lovely courtyard and roof terrace and a plunge pool for when it gets too hot. The air con is a lifesaver and comfortable rooms. Owner and staff are friendly and helpful.

I could only mention that is hard to find, but it is like that in the entire Medina.

The Riad was really good, we enjoyed our stayed. For being at the Medina, the location was in a quiter area which was a relief. The personal was really kind and helpful. Everything was clean and tidy. If anyone is looking for experiencing a riad style and being close the Medina, I would totally recommend it.
