Pros: This riad is exactly like the pictures – very clean and absolutely beautiful. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the old city, within walking distance of the souks, restaurants, and many other attractions. Our host, Hassan, was truly exceptional. He gave us many great suggestions, assisted us with booking trips, and even walked us to the taxis he arranged for us (we booked our airport transfers through him, which made everything so easy and stress-free). He really went the extra mile. Hassan was incredibly thoughtful and attentive, and he made sure we had the best possible experience in Marrakesh. We couldn’t have asked for a better host.

An unforgettable stay in a beautiful, peaceful riad with exceptional hospitality!

Pros: Our stay at Riad Darchica was absolutely incredible. The riad was extremely clean, in a fantastic location, and the rooms were beautiful and peaceful. The rooftop is truly stunning and the perfect place to relax. We also had dinner at the riad on our first night, and it was genuinely the best meal of our entire trip. A special mention to their very kind and affectionate cat, Kiri, who made us smile every day. Above all, Hassan was an incredibly caring and attentive manager, a spectacular host who made our stay even more memorable. He gave us wonderful recommendations that helped us make the most of our time and organised an excellent airport transfer service that made everything seamless. Thank you for such an amazing experience. We will definitely be back!

Great place to stay :)

Pros: Our stay at this riad was very nice. The rooms were clean, well maintained, and cleaned every day. The interiors are nice and made the stay more comfortable. Breakfast was very good and fresh. Special thanks to Khalil, who took great care of us. He was always helpful, kind, and friendly, and made us feel welcome. We recommend this riad and would gladly stay here again.

Very plesent and genuine; a home away from home

Pros: We really enjoyed the genuine hospitality of the riad. Khalid was super friendly and ready to help us out with anything. Morning breakfast, the sunny and comfortable rooftop, a clean room with kingsize bed; it is a very welcoming Riad where they make you feel at home. They even got a birthday cake for my partner! Also the location is perfect, walk into the old town and new.

Cons: Note that the kitchen is not a communal kitchen where you can cook yourself (we misinterpreted this from the picture) and the pool is not heated, only refreshing in the summer season.

Pros: Hassan was super helpful, picking us up at the taxi drop off, suggesting what to see and where to eat around Marrakech, and waking up really early to provide breakfast ahead of the van pickup for our next stop. The riad is very nice, clean and in a great central location.

Bulgaria 🇧🇬

Pros: Hassan. He was in contact with me over Whats up before we left, when we arrived on the airport, gave us a few tips before we even reached the Riad. Note that we arrived early in the morning, but he made sure for our room to be ready, we had tea, discussed our plans and he advised us as to where to go, what to see, where to eat, general advises about the city. Breakfast was amazing and Hassan made sure we had it even when we needed to be up at 7 AM... ot 11AM (do you even count it as breakfast at that point?). The location of the Riad is also amazing, close to the medina an honestly, 30 minutes walk to around everything we wanted to see, yet it felt relaxing and it was quiet when in it.

Cons: Note that a taxi cannot leave you directly in front of the Riad due to the narrow streets. Depending on whether you or your driver know the place it can take you between 2 and 15 minutes to locate the building as they might stop close to it or (as it was in our case) 10 minutes away. Google Maps helps a lot however and is accurate.

Hassan will make your holiday so memorable, the rooms are stylish, clean and quiet.

Pros: Hassan is an incredible host, he went above and beyond to ensure our trip was amazing, breakfast was great and so varied. And the Riad was gorgeous. I can’t rave enough about our stay, it was excellent. Breakfast on the rooftop in the sun was a highlight too. The only thing that could be improved in the temperature of the pool. When we booked it states that the pool is heated. However it’s not. In the winter months, you can’t swim unless the pool is heated, so this was disappointing, but didn’t take away from the beautiful riad and incredible host.

Cons: Heated pool.
