"The riad in the middle I would say of the new Marrakesh and the old. It’s walkable journey to any parts of Marrakesh and is nestled in a quiet neighbourhood that has all amenities you would need "
"Riad Kniza is a jewel in the Medina in Marrakesh. The architecture of the Riad is stunning, the accommodations are luxurious, and the service is exceptional. We enjoyed breakfast and dinner at Riad Kniza and the meals were delicious."
"The staff was very helpful. Aziz and Imaan helped me figure out transportation and answered any questions I had. The breakfast was amazing! Loved the room - it was a bit small - but worked out perfectly for 3 people. Would definitely recommend."
"This property was fantastic! We definitely felt like the Moroccan culture was present here. We loved everything about this accommodation. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would do so."
"Beautiful quiet riad off the busy areas. Hosts and staff were lovely and very helpful, including meeting us where the taxi could drop us and walking us to the riad, and helping us carry luggage when we left (even if we didn't need it!). Location can be a bit hard to find without guide so accept the help on arrival. Also be aware in Marrakesh some walkways in the medina near the square are closed at night so know your routes.
In the riad one feels constantly pampered. Tea and nibbles appeared...
"Great stay and very helpful and knowledgable owner. Nice place with a short walk to the main square. Owner helped us setup a day trip and we had a great driver to show us. Would definitely recommend and stay here again."
"An absolute gem of a Riad-with beautifully presented rooms. I stayed over the course of my stay in three different rooms: the Berber Suite, the Comfort Room and Deluxe Room and all the rooms were really comfortable. Hassan helped us with many aspects of our trip in Morocco. He was gentle and sweet and we enjoyed many conversations together."
"We had the most fantastic stay. The staff were wonderful and couldn’t do enough to help us. The riad was immaculate and our room was cleaned to the highest standard everyday. Great location also "
"The hotel is really lovely and everyone is really friendly. Unfortunately I didn’t have any hot water for four days in my room, otherwise my scores for the hotel would be higher!"

"Our stay at the Four Seasons was nothing short of exceptional. The resort itself is absolutely stunning - from the beautifully maintained grounds to the luxurious, spotless rooms.
All the restaurants in the hotel including breakfast was amazing. The waiters at breakfast were warm, attentive, and made us feel so welcome each morning (they even remembered how we liked our coffee served). The pool staff also went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time by pool
We did have one small hiccup when booking a spa treatment - due to a miscommunication, we were booked into the wrong treatment. However, the way the situation was handled truly stood out. The spa manager personally greeted me at breakfast the next day, corrected the booking, and generously offered a massage as a gesture of goodwill. This level of care turned what could have been a minor disappointment into yet another reason to recommend this hotel.
Overall, this was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The combination of beautiful surroundings, exceptional food, and genuinely lovely staff makes the Four Seasons a place I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking a truly memorable stay."
"I’m writing this review mainly because of Ilhan at reception and how awesome she is (give her a raise!) she hosted us for Moroccan tea every day and is a ray of sunshine and a wealth of information.
The hostel itself is beautiful, safe, walking distance to everything you need and has a nice pool.
My only downside was that there was smoking everywhere outside…
Would stay again. "
"We had an amazing stay, the staff are super friendly, very helpful, nothing was ever a problem, and the place is absolutely gorgeous, and super close to lots of the sites. We would definitely return, highly recommend "

"An Unforgettable Oasis of Luxury and Perfection
Our stay at Nobu Hotel Marrakech were nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, every detail exuded sophistication, warmth, and impeccable craftsmanship. The hotel masterfully blends Moroccan elegance with Nobu’s signature Japanese minimalism—creating a serene, visually stunning retreat just minutes from the Medina’s energy.
The architecture and interiors are breathtaking—think textured walls, reflective pools and lush palms. Our upgrade suite was a sanctuary of understated luxury, with bespoke furnishings, a dreamy terrace, and a bathroom that felt like a spa.
The staff anticipated every need with genuine warmth. Special shout-out to Redouane and Habibi, who made us feel like royalty. Every request was met with a smile and flawless execution.
Dining at Nobu Restaurant and Nobu Rooftop Bar were the highlights. The Japanese-Peruvian-Moroccan fusion dishes were inventive and sublime. Breakfasts, with fresh pastries and local specialties, were pure bliss.
The spa is a haven of calm—treatments merged traditional Moroccan rituals with modern techniques. The pools offered perfect spaces to unwind under the Marrakech sun.
Sophisticated yet unpretentious. Whether relaxing in a cabana, sipping cocktails at sunset in the lounge, or strolling through the lantern-lit gardens at night, the atmosphere was magical and deeply restorative.
