Riad Dar Bounouar

Just returned from a wonderful holiday here with friends. I contacted the rhiad in advance and Osama made sure our airport transfer went smoothly as it would have been tricky to find otherwise. Great location and a wonderful authentic experience. Osama went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, including making sure we had what we needed when I took ill on our last night, very grateful to him. The rhiad is a calm oasis after the hustle and bustle of daily life in the medina. Would highly recommend staying here.

Had a wonderful holiday in Morocco and we could not have had such a wonderful experience without the help of Osama. He organised everything for us from Airport pickup and helped us with our trips to Aqadir, Casablanca, Altas mountains, the desert and local tours. Thanks also to Mohamed who took care of meeting us at the taxi drop off point in the Medina. This hotel is very lucky to have such helpful and loyal employees who really know customer service. Thanks again Osama, Mohamed and our taxi man for all to help and kindness to ensure we had a wonderful time in your beautiful country Your Irish friends Marian & gang🙏

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Dar Bounouar and were so glad that we chose this riad. Christian (French speaking owner) was incredibly welcoming to us and my children, it felt like we were staying with family. Oussama (English and Arabic speaking manager) was so helpful too and kindly coordinated anything we required in the riad or outside. Our room was very kindly upgraded to a suite, and we loved the authentic decor with modern bathroom facilities (although the room did not have a tv, fridge, kettle or safe). In the late August heat, it was a little too hot to sleep on the upper level so after the first night we all relocated to the lower floor and could feel the benefit of the air conditioning better too. Everyday we were spoilt by a lovely lady that kindly provided the most plentiful breakfast. This was best way to start the day, in the calm of the riad and in the shade of a banana tree, before starting a busy day of sightseeing or shopping! One of the highlights of our trip recommended by Christian and organised by Oussama was a day trip to a Berber village and Ourika waterfalls with Muhammad. The guide we had for the waterfall was particularly amazing to help us navigate the rocky parts and lead the way with my daughter. Although lunch in Ourika was included, in hindsight we should have saved our appetite for the restaurants near the riad instead. We look forward to coming back to your riad to explore more of the wonders of Marrakesh, as we unfortunately out of time! Thanks again for having us!

An amazing stay with friendly and helpful staff! The hotel itself is a little hard to find but the hotel offer many helping hands the days before arrival making it easier to navigate. We had a problem with our air con which the hotel owner made sure was sorted asap which was very helpful due to the heat in September. If you are ever too hot the pool solves all problems and is extremely refreshing. Had the bestest time here thank you to everyone at the Riad Dar Bounouar!

Oussama and his team were excellent and made us feel at home. They also helped with taxis when EasyJet let us down with transfer back to the airport - which was invaluable. Beds were comfortable and room had air con. Breakfast was tasty. Whole place was relaxed and peaceful. Pool was cold, but required in 40 degrees! Although a little hard to find first time, once you’re there, location is great and perfect to explore the Medina on foot. Altogether a lovely experience.

Very helpful staff, perfect location. Would recommend to stay here for an Authentic stay in the medina. Ousama and staff thank you.

Osama the manager was lovely, very helpful. The breakfast was delicious good range of food to choose from. The pool was cold but nice after sunbathing on the sun loungers on the rooftop. Rooms were clean and comfy beds. 10/10 recommended !!

Oussama was a brilliant host who took his time explaining everything to us and making sure we enjoyed Marrakesh in the short stay we had.

A very friendly Riad with staff always available to help and answer questions. The swimming pool is refreshing and provides much-needed relief after walking on hot days. Breakfast is plentiful and amazing, offering a wide variety of breads, fruits, jams, juices, and more. Whenever we had any issues, the staff were quick to attend to them. For example, when we had problems with our airport transfer, they went out of their way to help us. The markets and souks are only a few minutes’ walk away, and the Riad is also very close to many attractions and restaurants.

We have just come back from a stay at the Riad Dar Bounouar. This guesthouse is defintely 5 stars. The staff are amazing - there is nothing that is too much trouble. Mohammed always got us to our detination, brought drinks without asking Osama (sorry if I have spelt it wrong) the manager was absoutley fantastic - met us with a morrocan mint tea and we were upgraded to a suite on our arrival, and the room was ready as soon as we arrived. It was amazing - very clean and spacious. Osama gave us his number in case we needed him whilst expolring Marrakesh. Honestly you are treated like royalty. We fell in love with Marrakesh because of the Riad Dar Bounouar, and the staff (Christian - this is a credit to you) I highly reccomend a stay here. Riad Dar Bounoubar we will be back.
