The service at Riad Hotel has been very good. I liked the support I received from staff like Hassan, Toufik and Zize. They gave me good traditional Morrocan food options at the hotel and places to visit in town. Very safe place to stay whilst in Marrakesh.

Location is prime, entertainment was great, the connected rooftop restaurant was good quality. The entertainment resonated into the hotel unfortunately making it hard to get to sleep as it went on until quite late but stopped before midnight. Overall positive experience here

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We were right off Jamaa al Fnaa, the shopping and dining was great, loud and always busy. It's worth noting that the square is only open to cars/taxis in the morning, so if you arrive in the afternoon or evening you'll have to walk approx 10-15 min to reach the riad. Something to bear in mind if you have elderly travellers. Staff were amazing, they helped me book private tours for my parents to atlas mountains and agafay desert.

Wonderful time in Marrakech

Our family of five (2 grandparents and 3 grandsons) loved this Riad. The rooms were terrific, the breakfasts were a delight and the service was incomparable. Our transportation was arranged and our two tours were great. We couldn’t have asked for a better time in Marrakech.

Great location but noisy!

Hotel is very centrally located however downside is the restaurant on the terrace which has very loud music until late evenings plus lots of street noise from outside. Room was ok, but bathroom lacks basic facilities, needs upgraded and is tiny. Great location though as only 3 minutes walk from the square. Staff is good and breakfast is nice and filling, although a little variety would be good rather than same breakfast every day.

Noisy

Very noisy. They have a rooftop restaurant and open kitchen, where guest have to go through the riad. Door and window to the room doesn't help to stop the noise. You can clearly hear when other guest are using their toilet. It was possible to sleep from 23 to 6.30. The staff was very friendly and the room was clean.

Joy

Liked: Cleanliness
Staff is friendly, however they do try to hustle you a bit. Also are a little too flirty for women traveling alone. Pricing for extra amenities (transport, laundry, iron) changes depending on who you talk with or when you talk with them. Bathroom is shared and very public, I recommend making sure you have your own while staying. Not a horrible stay, but will not be returning.

Koselig men bråkete

Greit sted å være hvis man liker at det er musikk rundt seg hele tiden. De har også en restaurant som stenger ved midnatt, så det var bråk fram til da, med live musikk og kunder som går inn og ut av bygget. Strømmen gikk 3 ganger på de 4 nettene jeg var der, så det var kjipt, men de fikset det nokså fort. Bra, tradisjonell frokost derimot, med takterasse.

This property is inside the medina, near the square, the street is inaccessible by taxi so be prepared to walk with your luggage a good 10 minutes from drop off point. But, you will be nicely greeted by Jesu and served welcome Moroccan mint tea when you arrive. Also walkable to Koutoubia Mosque.
