“A Wonderful Oasis in the Souk”

We chose this Riad based on tripadvisor reviews and we were not disappointed. I suggest that you have the Riad collect you and deliver you to the Riad as this is palace not easy to find alone. The staff INSISTED on carrying our bags through the Souk from the drop-off point and welcomed us with a refreshing drink when we arrived at the Riad. Later, when we were going out, they took us to the main square showing us landmarks to help us find our way back. The breakfasts were lovely, as were the traditional local meals provided at additional and reasonable cost. The Riad provides an Oasis of peacefulness and calm away from the hustle and bustle of the Souk just outside the doors. I would like to thank all the staff for their very high standard of care and their friendly demeanour throughout our stay.

“So Peaceful”

We've booked this riad for our whole family 4 nights and we had an amazing stay.

We've booked this riad for our whole family 4 nights and we had an amazing stay. Ali, the driver welcomed us at the airport for our pickup, it would be difficult to find the first time but after it's quite easy, and dropped us off at Main Square Jeema Al Fna where we met Hasia (hope it's ok for her name), she is in charge of the riad. We walked together with a guy taking our bags and met the owner Patrick for the first time. We exchanged a lot of e-mails with him because in several books we saw that staying in the Medina could be hard sometimes with kids, but it was just wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Thank you so much. All children definitely want to come back asap.

“Such a nice surprise.”

Spent 6 days in this riad and had great vacation. Nice room, nice food, very well located in the heart of the souks. Warm in summer time, about 49° celcius but AC was ok, perhaps we'll come back with friends in april or november. Jeema el fna main square was amazing, women take care about your ha... lisää

Spent 6 days in this riad and had great vacation. Nice room, nice food, very well located in the heart of the souks. Warm in summer time, about 49° celcius but AC was ok, perhaps we'll come back with friends in april or november. Jeema el fna main square was amazing, women take care about your hands, a lot of strange women are trying to draw henna for an expensive price. Definitly come back, thanks every body.

“beautiful, great location but a bit weird”

This is a lovely Riad. We have been to Marrakech several times and this Riad is gorgeous and spacious. The location is also fantastic, it's easy to walk to just about everything Marrakech has to offer.

This is a lovely Riad. We have been to Marrakech several times and this Riad is gorgeous and spacious. The location is also fantastic, it's easy to walk to just about everything Marrakech has to offer. The staff was very helpful and friendly but also did a fair amount of entertaining in the Riad which we thought we had rented in it's entirety. The common areas--which in other riads is generally used by the paying guests--was used by the staff to hang out, watch tv, smoke, and chat. Also, the staff had friends over to use the showers. It was all a little weird, especially for the price. That said, when we asked that the gang refrain for smoking, blasting the tv, and inviting friends around to freshen up, they were very open to our requests. No problem at all. And we left all kinds of stuff (ipods, computers, cameras, etc) around during our stay and, despite the traffic, nothing went missing. All and all a nice stay but I would not do it again unless the price dropped. And significantly.
