Riad la Cigale

I will be back!!

Pros: Brilliant location - authentic Riad - oasis of calm away from the noise and bustle of the souk

Pros: It was great to stay in a riad in the heart of Marrakech - it's close to but separate from the souk, so it was nice to be able to get away from the crowds. Our room was comfortable, there's a nice roof terrace and we loved the buntings that visited during breakfast! Yassmine very helpfully organised an airport transfer for us, even though we only asked at the last minute.

Stunning riad, perfect for a boutique getaway

Pros: The style, boutique hotel. The breakfast. And the rooms are beautiful and clean.

Cons: We were a bit disappointed by the hammam experience. Even though I booked it in advance they forgot, and then it wasn’t as long as stated on their website and we weren’t offered any other packages except for basic.

Amazing location and staff.

Pros: We spent 4 days and 3 nights at the Riad. The staff there, Zac and Sayed, took great care of us. We ran into some problems with our train tickets but Yasmine helped us get rebooked at the last minute. She was really helpful with all our inquiries and just wonderful.

A lovely place to stay in Marrakech!

Pros: We had a great stay at Riad la Cigale. The staff is very warm, welcoming and really takes care of you during your stay! The Riad is beautifully decorated and has a good rooftop area. It is conveniently located about a 5 minute walk from the famous Jemaa El-Fnaa square, and all the souks around it. The freshky cooked delicious breakfast was something we looked forward to everyday! Special shout out to Yassmine (the manager) and Syed (the night manager) for their exceptional customer service.

Pros: Excellent location, close to everything but the Riad itself was very quiet and calm. Beautiful decoration and would recommed the Hammam. Really nice and helpful personnel.

Peaceful haven in the heart of the Medina, authentic decor and family atmosphere.

Pros: I chose this property due to great reviews from other guests. Great location, I couldn’t believe it was in the chaotic medina but was very quiet and lovely decor. Nice roof terrace to watch the sun rise with birdsong. Friendly and helpful staff.

Cons: A lot of steps if you want the room with the best view but not a problem as staff helped with bags 🙏

Good

Pros: Easy communication with the host who was always very responsive. Great breakfast, clean room. Let me leave my stuff in reception after check out for a few hours. WiFi was fine (though would not reach in the bathroom, no big deal for me).

Cons: Just about the bathroom. It was quite smelly, especially in the shower. I would suggest some form of cover of the shower because it’s open and it’s a mess when showering (all the water goes on the floor and it becomes slippery). Also there is probably poor air flow, which is why it’s difficult to get the smell out, would need proper drying after cleaning.

Pros: Staff was lovely and very helpful and accommodating. They arranged for a taxi and ensured we left safely for a very early flight. The riad is beautiful with a lovely rooftop to enjoy the sunset. Excellent location.

Pros: Warm welcome with tea and pastries. Great communication with host, great position near Jemaa el Fna, comfy room. But the highlight ofthe stay is the amazing homemade breakfast served on the sunny terrace. It made my day, each day :)
