Enchanting stay with wonderful hosts.

Pros: What’s not to love. Hassan and the team were incredibly welcoming and we spent a special New Year’s Eve here. Food is excellent!

Cons: Loved everything. Perhaps I’d say for a romantic couple there isn’t much privacy because the Riad is small and all rooms face the courtyard.

Can't wait to get back.

Pros: Everyone can see the beauty of this place through the pictures so my words about that would be redundant. But what can't be seen, until you get your own experience, is the amazing staff who makes this riad different from the others. The communication before my arrival was absolutely great, very smooth and very fast. During my stay, I had the chance to meet Hamza and Adil who were absolutely phenomenal! You feel with them like you met your friends from many years ago. And then, I tried the dinner made by Karima, what an unforgettable culinary experience! If you're looking for a place where you don't want to feel just like another guest, and if you appreciate deeper human connection, this is the place to stay.

Cons: The terrace room wasn't spacious and it was a bit challenging to move around there but you probably will spend most of your time outside exploring the mesmerizing Marrakech. Plus, riads are old traditional buildings so it's not that the rooms can be expanded easily.

Great starting point for a road trip

Pros: The riad is really nice and everyone is pretty welcoming from our arrival until our departure. Since we were the only hosts, we got the terrace room, that allowed us to chill before our road trip to Merzouga. Riad Dar Zaman certainly raised the bar for our next accomodations. Breakfast had a lot of fresh and homemade things that I will for sure look for in the souks or try to find recipes for. Make sure to use the local app suggested by the host to get around and understand the closing times for the medina and you'll be fine walking around.

Cons: I only booked for one night. I would probably extend that on a next visit.

A warm welcome to riad life!

Pros: The staff with so helpful! Adil gave us such a warm welcome, and Hassane was so helpful with recommendations and directions - they really made our stay so enjoyable. The riad was very sweet and had a great roof terrace. We were only there for one night before we were heading on a trek, but I would have happily stayed for longer

Cons: Nothing. The water went off in the whole area, but this wasn’t a Riad dad zaman issue, it was all of the area, but the staff did everything they could to get it back on quickly.
