A charming and comfortable stay in a perfect Medina location with warm hospitality and a lovely trad
Pros: Riad Andalla is ideally located in the heart of Marrakech’s Medina, it is a very just a short walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa square, making it perfect for exploring the city’s main attractions. We enjoyed the traditional Moroccan breakfast served daily, often on the terrace with views over the Medina. The rooms are comfortable and tastefully decorated in authentic riad style, with air conditioning and private bathrooms for a relaxing stay.
Cons: I only have one issue and this may be mine alone but I found the beds to slightly on the firm side, and given the amount of walking you do, a medium fell matress would have been my preference.

Outstanding, wonderful staff, excellent cook, beautiful room cleaned daily, Riad smells amazing.
Pros: The location is great for exploring the Medina and Jemaa el Fnaa. As a solo female visitor, I felt safe walking around and seeing all the activity in the plaza after dark and knowing I was never far from my accommodation. It was also perfect for getting to the early morning pick up point for excursions.
Cons: I couldn't find fault with anything other than my pillows were too firm for my comfort, personally.

Overall we had a nice time but just felt a little underwhelmed compared to previous visits.
Pros: The location and terrace with view of the square were second to none.
Cons: Service was a bit hit and miss - eg. we ordered the lunch time panini which was advertised on the board but no-one seemed to know what it was and it took over an hour to arrive. The incense was overpowering. I’ve stayed at this Riad 3 times before but I didn’t find it as friendly this time. However, Abdul was excellent!

Beautiful place but I would shop around for better options because there are loads.
Pros: The staff were super helpful and kind. The rooms were beautifully designed with comfy beds. There is a rooftop which we accessed for chilling and breakfast and it had a great view of the central plaza area.
Cons: I stayed in two different rooms and the bathrooms/toilet areas are pretty crampy so if you're a bigger person it's not gonna be comfy when using. The included breakfast was not great. It was the same everyday and mostly just bread and cakes. No fruit or eggs. It's not hard to give a boiled egg or two and slice of a couple pieces of fruit. We mostly just drank the coffee, ate the yoghurt and left all the bread and cakes behind because we wanted something fresher. They have a kitchen and you can pay for other breakfast options like a cafe but what's the point if you've already paid for the included breakfast? This was a little disappointing and it's very easily fixed. Also, the hammam via teh hotel wasn't the most amazing experience. The lady who ran it for us was so so lovely and sweet but it was in a tiny room and sadly not what we were hoping for.
