The staff were incredibly kind, friendly and helpful. The hotel was beautifully designed and decorated, it felt like a tranquil refuge from the craziness of the medina. We also had dinner at the hotel once as well and this ended up being one of our best meals in our two-week stay in Morocco.

It was excellent

It was very close to the square. The breakfast was excellent every morning , and the staff was phenomenal they provided instructions on how to get to places and also ordered taxis for us that would actually go to the riad and pick us up at the door step. Elsa, the owner, when above and beyond to make our stay wonderful she didn't hesitate to go meet us on her day off when I had a meltdown she walked with us to the square Jemma el Fna and showed us around this action was not part of .the reservation, and yet Elsa took it upon herself to make sure we felt safe and comfortable with our stay in Marraquech. THANK YOU Riad up for all your kindness and service. You really made the difference

We had a great stay! On arrival, we were offered some mint tea while we sorted out the check-in, and Hadid provided us with a city map and pointed out a few key locations. Besides being very close to the city centre, the area was quiet at night. Breakfast was served in their indoor patio, which was a lovely and calming space

The terrasse was a little small, compared with other riads I stayed at. Doors and windows of the rooms need some renovation.

The staff, location, breakfast, quietness.

Stayed in May 2025

Nothing to suggest.

The interior styling and general feel of the place was relaxed but chic. It is remarkable how the Riad feels so calm and yet it is only a few minutes away from the main square and all of the action. The breakfast was excellent and beautifully presented. The taxi pick up was smooth as was the check out process. I would not hesitate recommending this to others or returning.

Liked everything disliked nothing!

A member of the staff liaised with our taxi driver and was in the street to meet us, which was a massive help. The place is nicely decorated and quite stylish. Dinner was excellent and breakfast was exceptional.

Nothing to dislike. It is a haven from the hustle and bustle of the Medina.

Breakfast superb. Location excellent, albeit a bit scruffy, but quiet yet near the main Square. Fabulously helpful staff.

We had an amazing time at Elsa’s Riad. Everyone, including Elsa, was wonderful. Great breakfast and view. I would definitely recommend it.

The Riad was beautiful and immaculately maintained. A small oasis in the heart of the city. The staff were brilliant, kind and nothing was too much trouble for them. Breakfast was delicious also. I will be recommending this Riad to anyone looking to stay in Marrakech.

Nothing. I know its a muslim country so i cant ask for sausage on breakfast🤣

Lovely staff & the owner is hands on to the guests and very accomodating. We had to extend our booking because its good to stay! Overall 100% satisfaction.

It was extremely difficult to find .Not well sign posted and it cost us €15 euros for a guy to help us find the Riad after paying a taxi from the bus stop which also was expensive… We were concerned that the bedroom could not be locked from the inside and a small padlock was the only mechanism to secure the bedroom door from the outside.This issue needs to be addressed.

The breakfast was superb. The courtyard was stunning, with the dipping pool and the banana palm tree which had bananas on it…

Noise from guests coming home late at night, knocking on the entrance door to gain entry.

Gorgeous interior and lovely staff. A member of staff kindly came to meet us from the taxi rank so we didn’t get lost in the medina. Tasty breakfast.

We loved our stay at Riad UP! The atmosphere was absolutely beautiful, especially the design and attention to detail. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, as was the owner, Elsa. The location is also perfect—you feel very safe and are just a short walk from the famous streets of Marrakech, filled with great shopping, restaurants, and more.

The light, and it was really calm

Sometimes at night the souk is a bit daunting. Trying to find your way home was a challenge.

The Riad UP is beautiful,calm and relaxing space. The room was well equipped, clean with excellent bedding. The breakfast was exceptional, simple and healthy. Coffee great too. I highly recommend the Road Up.

Breakfast was simple but nice. The style of the Riad was beautiful. Very calm. The terrace and the central court yard were beautiful spaces away from the busy Marrakesh streets.

The location is excellent for the Medina. The quality of the rooms and furnishings are very high and very stylish. The staff were attentive and very helpful and the breakfast lovely

There is nothing not to like about Riad Up. It would be good to have a drinks menu to order drinks/snacks if possible.

The Riad was a place of tranquility and calm within the centre of the Medina, offering a clean and comfortable place to relax.

My first time to Marrakesh and I especially wanted to stay in a Riad. It was just gorgeous and right in the heart of it. Although when you were in the Riad you felt like you were in pure tranquillity. I absolutely LOVED everything about it. The breakfast was sublime. I'm happy xx

Think it would’ve been nice to have roof top pool but not sure if that’s the norm . Also an outdoor key. Had to knock to get back in but there was someone there even at 11 at night . Also unclear about buying drink . We sort of had to ask if they had wine . The lady there was friendly but seemed a bit unclear what to offerus but found us a bottle of wine from the fridge . Everything else was pretty much perfect .

Breakfast was lovely Pancakes , yoghurt , fresh fruit, squeezed orange juice just beautifully presented . We had it on the roof top terrace . Dinner was absolutely unbeatable . The chicken just “ fell off the bone” . Perfectly quiet in the room, despite being a stones throw from the market streets with excellent air-con Elsa recommended a fab spa which we used and ordered us a taxi 🙂
