An amazing relaxing stay

Pros: Tue riad is beautiful and clean, and the breakfast is amazing! Our stay was wonderful, but what truly made the experience unforgettable was Youssef. From the very first moment, he welcomed us with genuine kindness, professionalism and warmth. He was always available, attentive to every detail, and ready to help with anything we needed, always with a sincere smile. Thanks to him, we felt cared for and at home throughout our entire stay. His dedication, discretion and positive energy represent the highest level of hospitality. People like Youssef make the difference between a good hotel and an exceptional experience. We sincerely hope the management recognizes how valuable he is. Thank you again for making our stay in Marrakech so special.

Perfect stay . Four days of Marrakesh, loved it .

Pros: The hotel was very central to the main square in the medina , nice area . Youssef was a fabulous host. Helped with everything from advice on attractions and how to get there to making sure we were back safely and had everything we needed in our rooms. Couldn’t have been more accommodating on our last day, holding our bags and giving a room to change etc. Definitely recommend for anyone travelling to Marrakesh.

Lovely, would come back in a heartbeat.

Pros: The Riad was beautiful, with a comfortable bed. The true highlight, though, was Yussef’s incredible hospitality. He made us feel so welcome and went out of his way to help us navigate to taxi ranks, which can be tricky in the area. One morning we slept in past 10 a.m., yet he still prepared breakfast for us, and another night he stayed up until 2 a.m. to greet us when we returned. Yussef is truly the heart and soul of the Riad—if you want to be genuinely looked after, this is the place to stay. The location is excellent as well!

Cons: N/A

Beautiful Riad with wonderful staff

Pros: Riad Meriem is a beautiful property a few minutes walk from the souks . You hear the call to prayer from the nearby mosque but apart from that , the property is incredibly quiet with just 5 rooms. The room was large with a wonderful bathroom with fresh towels daily. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. What made our trip was the assistance of Youssef, the manager. He was so attentive and helpful , arranging our airport transfers, providing mint tea, and leaving us a breakfast to take away on a day we had a trip with an early start. His approachable manner and smiley character meant we felt very at home.

Cons: The riad is tucked away down some alleyways so could be hard to find, but after a couple of trips we had no problems. Use the maps.me app and you will be fine! Although the property was in a very quiet area our room, Matisse , was on the ground floor so if someone was outside in the courtyard the sound travelled - this didn't spoil our stay however.

Clean, great location and excellent staff really enjoyed our stay here.

Pros: We really enjoyed our stay here. Five minute walk to the souks. Our room was really lovely, always clean and fresh towels provided daily. Youssef was exceptional - always making sure we were ok, ready to help and really made us feel welcome. He offered to prepare food for us before our early flight out, making an extra effort to accommodate us which we really appreciated. Breakfast was really good each morning. I would definitely recommend staying here and if I am ever in Marrakech again I would be booking to stay here.

Cons: everything was great

Pros: We had a lovely stay at Riad Meriem. The riad was very clean, beautiful, and tranquil, and our room was comfortable with great water pressure (so needed!). A special thank you to our host Youssef, who was incredibly kind, helpful, and hospitable, and made our stay feel easy and comfortable from start to finish. We would happily stay here again.

Amazing

Pros: Adel and Yousuf were very helpful and kind from the moment we arrived. They were always there when needed, made us feel comfortable, and went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly. Their professionalism and positive attitude truly made a difference in our experience. Highly recommended!

Cons: Only thing is the location, as it’s through alley ways and it’s a little hard to get to, but as the days go by you will know the roads.

Perfect stay, would definitely recommend.

Pros: Our stay at the Riad was perfect from start to finish. The Riad itself is beautiful, and Yousef was incredibly attentive and always at hand whenever we needed anything. The beds were extremely comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Cons: If we had to mention anything, it was a little hard to find at first as the Riad is quite hidden, though this was on us as they did offer airport transport. Also, as it was winter, we would have appreciated the room being a bit warmer.

Pros: I had a wonderful stay at Riad Meriem in Marrakech. The staff were absolutely amazing—always kind, attentive, and genuinely helpful. They were happy to assist with everything, whether it was calling a taxi, offering local advice, or bringing a coffee or tea at any time of the day. Their hospitality really made the stay special. The location is exactly what you’d expect from a traditional riad: just a 2–3 minute walk from the souks, yet tucked away in an old neighborhood that feels authentic and full of character. It’s not a modern area, but that’s what makes it the true Marrakech experience. I would definitely recommend Riad Meriem to anyone looking for warm hospitality and an authentic stay in the heart of the city.

Great place, need to upgrade wifi.

Pros: We really liked the staff. Yusuf woke up at 6am to take us breakfast before our flight. We didn’t expect that. Really top notch staff.

Cons: The WiFi barely worked. I had to work and I had no cell signal or wifi. It should work for the price we paid. It’s not even that it was slow, it didn’t work half the time. That was problematic.
