Bra läge

Trevlig riad några minuter från torget i median. De har en trevlig takterrass där man kan sitta och äta frukost. Rummet var rent men det blev väldigt kallt på nätterna. Vi ville ändra vår bokning men det gick inte för ägaren finns inte där, och killen som sköter om stället kunde inte heller få tag på honom på annat sätt än mejl, så det var väldigt dåligt. Riaden är omöjlig att hitta på egen hand eftersom den ligger på en bakgata och det finns ingen skylt! Man måste få hjälp av någon på torget att hitta men var beredd på att betala en slant. Jag skulle inte rekommendera någon att bo i medinan med än 1 natt, efter det blir myllret och människorna för mycket.

Riad bien situé - Personnel sympathique - Bruit

Le Riad (maison marocaine en fait) est très bien situé à proximité de la place de Jamaa El fna. On a apprécié la terrasse le soir et l'amabilité des personnes qui tiennent le lieu (Youssef & Fatima). Seul point faible : le bruit dans les chambres supérieures à cause de la proximité des travaux, de la rue passante et l'appel à la prière tôt le matin.

Prima ligging in de medina.

Ben er 3 jaar eerder geweest. nu kwam het mij wat " vergane glorie " over. Vriendelijk personeel. ligging goed. Wel in achteraf steegje, maar goed te vinden. als jongens je naar het adres willen brengen vanaf de taxiplaats, spreek dan van te voren de prijs af.

Troisieme sejour dans ce riad ,bien situe au calme.accueil parfait d aicha et youssef,excellents petits dejeuners sur la terrasse.mais...car il y a un mais,beaucoup de difficultes de la part de la proprietaire(absente)pour obtenir la chambre decrite sur le site,a savoir ,celles a l etage au prix reservé.il a fallu envoyer le descriptif d hotels.com pour obtenir le tarif prevu,pas cool du tout et contrairement aux autres riads,nous a fait payé la taxe de sejour(qu hotels.com s est engagé a nous rembourser),alors qu elle etait incluse.bref,des problemes,les premiers depuis que nous reservons,qui gachentun peu le plaisir,surtout que ce riad,tres joli au demeurant,aurait malgré tout besoin d un petit rafraichissement.donc,en conclusion,pour le meme prix,nous choisirons un autre lieu.dommage.

schönes Riad mit super Dachterrasse

Wir hatten eigentlich nur eine Nacht gebucht, sind dann aber noch ein paar Nächte länger geblieben. Das Riad ist nicht weit weg vom Jemaa el fna gelegen und trotzdem sehr ruhig. Das Zimmer war gut, ebenso das Frühstück. Unser Zimmer war im Erggeschoss und hatte Fenster und eine Glastür zum Innenhof. Es war relativ hellhörig und durch die Lage im Erdgeschoss liefen des öfteren Leute an unseren Fenstern vorbei. Durch die vorhandenen Vorhänge war das aber nicht wirklich störend. Ich würde trotzdem ein Zimmer im Obergeschoss empfehlen, da man dort mehr Privatsphäre hat. Die Angestellten waren alle sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Das beste an diesem Riad ist die große Dachterrasse, auf der nicht nur ein paar Stühle stehen, sondern eine richtige Lounge Ecke vorhanden ist. Dort ließ es sich wunderbar frühstücken und am Abend sitzen und ein Glas Wein trinken.

Nothing special

I was glad I booked an airport transfer. It would be a real challenge to find this Riad, otherwise. I was pleased with the initial welcome, but I soon realised that the range and quality of the facilities had been overdescribed. My stay was pleasant enough but it seems you have to pay a lot more for a quality Riad experience in Marrakech

Det værste af 4 steder i Marroko

Traditionel Riad, men meget misligeholdt. Beskidt, middelmådig service. Morgenmad, ikke noget særligt. Beliggenhed tæt på Djemaa el Fna. Eneste positive er en dejlig tagterrasse, og god wi-fi. PS forlangte 5% ekstra for kredit kort

Wonderful place to stay in a great location.

Really enjoyed our stay and cant rate this riad highly enough. We arranged to be collected from the airport which saved hassle and we were then escorted directly to the hotel. We were then shown the way to the square (less than 10 mins away!).Its actually in a great location close to all of the sites. The hotel is really romantic and our room was very clean. Being on the ground floor we also benefitted from wifi. No shortage of good eateries all within walking distance. Superb!

en unik oplevelse

man kan vælge, når man rejser at bo på nybyggede luksushoteller, der er ens verden over.På Riad al Faras fik vi en unik marokkansk oplevelse: en smuk oase tæt på Djemma el Fna, så solen gå ned fra tagterrassen til bønnen fra minareterne og blev godt forkælet.

Et fristed i en kaotisk verden

Når man ankom til Riaden, var det som at træde ud af det kaotiske Marakesh, og ind i en drømme verden - det eneste man kunne høre var små fugles sang og vinden i blomsterne. Morgenmaden var god og mere end tilstrækkelig - god kaffe og mynte the, til en billig penge.

Riad al Faras

Flott riad "midt i smørøyet"! Passe stor/liten! For oss nordboere er det VELDIG kalde rom å ha, når man drar i vinter-sesong! Dvs. nov., des., jan. feb.,?! Størrelsen på både rom og bad var fine. men det kunne absolutt være å spandere en varme-ovn , spes. på baderommet! Det var GRISE-kaldt å både dusje og stelle seg der! Burde også vært avlukket med noe mer enn bare et forheng mellom bad og sove-rom!

Riad al Faras in Maracesh/ small cosy paradise .

In the narrow streets of Maracesh behind a small door you will find a beautifull cosy paradise in original Marrocan style. The atmosphere brings you back in the old day's of Marroco with very nice service oriented staff. Compaire the price quality relation we where very suprised. We can recoment this place to every body...
