    Riad is in a very good location of Medina. It is close to everywhere by walking distance. Also all stuff was very friendly and helpful. Especially Ismael was very helpful from the beginning.

    Excellent communication with the host who always replied promptly to all our questions prior to arriving and was always respectful. We were offered a private transport service, which was extremely convenient, and a home made dinner on the first night. Upon arrival at the riad, we were welcomed by Mohamed who very kindly checked us in, showed us around the riad and gave us a map of Marrakech. Mohamed also served us breakfast every morning and always went the extra mile to ensure we had everything we needed during our stay. Samira, was also extremely kind and always greeted us with a warm smile. The tagine and tangia cooked by her on the first day were by far the best dishes we had during our entire stay in Marrakech. The location of this riad was particularly great, everything was within a 15-30 min walk. The neighbourhood was busy both during the day (with many tourists wondering around) and at night (with mostly locals). The room was fairly spacious and kept clean, we were provided a cot for our baby and the bed was comfortable. Overall, the staff were the highlight of our stay and made the whole experience so much better!

    The transport service was more expensive compared to local taxis, however, we were happy to pay the extra fee as we were able to travel worry-free at a time that was convenient to us. The fixed menu, although delicious, was overpriced and there were no drinks included- for the price paid, we expected at least a glass of water (we paid separately for water). There were many restaurants nearby which offered delicious meals for a third of the price and far more options.

    We had a wonderful stay at Riad Jakoura in Marrakech. The place is modest but exceptionally clean and well cared for. What truly made our experience special was the warm and attentive hospitality of Mohamed and Samira. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable, always with a smile and genuine kindness. If we ever return to Marrakech, we would definitely choose Riad Jakoura again. Highly recommended for those looking for a simple, clean, and warmly hosted stay in the heart of the city.

    Mohamed was very helpful, breakfast was good, certainly enough to set me up for the day, lovely terrace area and room large enough for one and to do some yoga on the mat

    The room was quite hot with no air, would have preferred a thicker curtain on the window as I felt it was see through when the light was on, steps to the terrace were quite difficult to navigate

    The staff were all great as was the breakfast. Other rooms are probably different but I booked a single and it was small. I found it charming as was the doorway to it, which requires stooping. Some might find that a problem. The breakfast area is beautiful and the location excellent.

    This Riad is located right in the heart of The Medina and so outside it was the expected hustle and bustle of Marrakech but once inside it was cool, quiet and peaceful. the two members of staff were great answering questions and sorting out our airport transfers. definitely recommend this Riad

    The reception of Mohamed was very good and kind. His friendly service and Information about Morocco in general was so interesting. it was much more than just 'handing out the keys'.

    The roof terrace needs some refurbish, some items are quite worn and dusty. it would be nice if the management gave out a bit more and different stuff for breakfast. The location is in a side street of an extremely busy and loud road with LOTS of traffic and Fußes.

    The facilities need a face lift as the wall paint appears fading, and we have too many red curtains, which can be changed to a brighter colour to give the room a better appearance. But in all, Samera(apologies if I get the spelling of the name wrong) and Mohammed are wonderful staff who went the extra mile to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Thanks both. You are wonderful.

    As a solo traveller I was bit nervous. Mohammad was amazing!. He walked me at night to the ATM because I was scared to go alone at night. He showed me a map and told me where I should and shouldn't go and what scams to look out for. Breakfast is 8- 10 but he got up early to make me breakfast before my tours. Mohammad went above and beyond for me and everyone else, he made my holiday more enjoyable as he was just a text away if I needed him. I came for a holiday and gained a great friend. Samira cleaned my room and always did a great job. When I return to Morroco I will stay at those Riad again. It was really authentic and the rooftop terrace was a bonus. I would highly recommend to others looking for a Riad in Marrakesh. They booked my transfers to and feom the airport and

    I would have liked to have been able to open a window to let some fresh air in but it wasn't a major problem. My single room was dark but again not a major problem. I also think the red paint could be replaced with a lighter colour but this is just constructive criticism. Samira was so helpful before I even arrived. Thank you!

    Mohammed was a fantastic asset to the riad. He made our stay there.

    The room was very dark and not particularly pleasant to spend time in unless sleeping

    Property response:

    Good evening dear customer regarding the lighting in this room, it was enough to simply point it out, we could have used a stronger bulb which is not always to the taste of other customers, but the customer remains king. Regarding the equipment, can you tell me what is missing? I would be happy to help. Kind regards
