Reviews

Christophe 10/10

Phenomenal experience in a traditional but modern and very clean riat

Pros: From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcomed. The place was spotless, calm, and really well taken care of. You can tell they truly care about their guests. What stood out most was how helpful they were. They arranged a shuttle that dropped us right at the door and also took us back to the airport. Everything was smooth and stress free. They even provided a phone with data so we could stay connected. That level of service is rare. The riat was very clean and truly guest focused. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to Marrakech.

Memorable stay in Marrakech in beautiful Riad with the best, most attentive staff you could wish for.

Pros: Incredible friendly staff led by Soufiane. Go out of their way to provide all services and assistance to make stay comfortable, memorable and safe getting around. Taxi to and from airport, mobile phone for directions and constant contact as needed included - a real bonus. Beautifully restored building retaining character. Comfortable rooms, good quality bed linen. At edge of medina so quiet but safe area. Loved the roof terrace.

Cons: Nothing at all.

Riad is fantastic, but the best thing about this place are the people who look after you - the staff

Pros: Breakfast OK, too reliant on bread to fill you up, dinner very good. While the Riad is great in its cleanliness, comfort, amenities etc... what really makes this place a stand out are the staff. The three guys and one lady we interacted with were the absolute best, they would go out of their way to make your stay unforgettable from an experience perspective but also their down to earth advice and recommendations. Not the Riad itself, but it's location: 15-20mins walk from the main action, but for us that was a positive being in a quieter residential area. Initially you may think the local backstreets where this Riad is presents some personal security issues, but we found the complete opposite. In our walks from the centre to the Riad we felt more safe than anywhere else we've been - and we're very well travelled. 10/10 staff.

Cons: Breakfast OK but could do with more fresh fruit. Don't forget this isn't western with cereals etc... but what they do is good.

A perfect place to rest our heads on our last night in Marrakesh.

Pros: The team were extremely friendly and helpful. They went out their way to help us with our luggage and welcome us. The bed was really comfortable, which is a rare thing in Morocco! Rooftop was secluded and chilled.

I wish I could stay longer…

Pros: Excellent location, taxi could pick me up outside the door. Excellent staff. Delicious dinner and breakfast. Beautiful room and outdoor area. Highly recommended

Cons: Maybe not better, but pillows was too hard to my taste, but it’s very personal choice and absolutely not a problem.

Incredible Marrakech Riad

An absolute gem!

Pros: We stayed at this Riad for 4 nights and it really was one of the highlights of our trip to Marrakech. The property is beautiful, authentic and comfortable. However, it was the staff who made all the difference. They were beyond welcoming and simply could not do enough for us, all in an effort to give us a memorable holiday. And what struck us most was the genuine pride they seemed to take in this. From the airport transport to the mobile phone provided, they really had thought of everything. We ate breakfast there every day and also had dinner on a number of nights. The food was delicious and carefully prepared. They even managed to cater for my gluten free needs! We would not hesitate to stay here again and would encourage anyone to do the same.

Cons: The Riad is in the Medina approx 15 minutes walk from the main square. This was no problem for us and we liked the fact that it was in a slightly quieter area. However, may be a consideration for some.

Pros: The hilight of this place is the amazingly helpful staff who are so kind and make you feel so welcome, and provide many helpful tips. Having a phone for directions is also really helpful. Our room was great and the meals (breakfasts and dinners) we had at the Riad were all superb and some of the best food we had in our stay in Morocco.
