Demeures d'Orient Riad & Spa

lovely

the massage

Everything in the hotel

The access to the hotel is far from ideal and many people would not want to come or go except by taxi, although the hotel is not far from the centre of the Medina. Motorcycles are a nightmare and the city authorities should ban them within the Medina.

The Riad had been built to very high standards using local craftsmen and materials, the woodwork was exceptional. Our room was large , comfortable and well lit with plenty of storage. Breakfast was great and served around the pool on the central courtyard, evening meals was served around the pool or on the roof terrace, the food was very good. All the staff were helpful and welcoming, I enjoyed the Hamman

Nothing really.

Impressive , Moroccan but in good taste and spotless . Super

It's hard to adequately portray this oasis in the centre of Marrakech. It's beautiful, serene and the staff were amazing. Happy, helpful and professional. Thank you all so much for a stay that will be hard to match.

Nothing to dislike at all

The Riad is a lot prettier in real than the photo, especially at Night once they put the candles on the central chandelier. The Riad is quiet, and not many rooms for a homy feeling. The staff was very pleasant and discreet.

The massage I booked was really bad and expensive. But that's just because the masseur was not really trained, and i'm very picky as I have massage every week. The owner was present during our stay, maybe a bit too obvious. The location is further up in the medina, not really central located, there is nothing to do outside; it takes at least 5 minutes walking through dodgy streets. Overall it is a very pleasant experience !

Breakfast was generous and the staff at the spa were lovely.

The riad is a 30 minutes walk away from all the places of interest, when taking a taxi back to the hotel it was always a battle with drivers to find where the hotel is and on multiple occasions we just had to give them our phone so they can follow directions on google. The riad's pool is in the main courtyard, it's lovely, however when there are noisy guests who are ultimately trying to get drunk, you will not be able to rest even when you are in your own room. Lastely, the cleaning staff kept trying to get into our room to clean when we were inside and resting, it's very annoying when you're just trying to rest and sleep and someone comes banging at the door!

The design of the facility, the staff, the lovely owner and the great service… this Riad is an experience by itself

It stay in mind for long time…

The Demeures is beautiful, relaxing and well run. The courtyard around the pool is delightful- breakfast, lunch dinner or just hanging out. Food is delicious. We liked it even better than the other great restaurants we ate at. The staff is wonderful and simply superb! Nothing was too much trouble. Booking taxis, reservations, helping with everything! Rooms are large and comfortable. We met Zoë, the owner/manager who explained that her mother and grandmother had designed and built this special retreat and many of the staff have been with them from the beginning. All that love for their business and commitment to perfect service surely showed in our experience of staying there!

The only thing to be aware of is that the hotel is tucked away in a maze of small streets. Taxis can easily find it. But don’t plan to go out walking. Traffic on main streets is downright scary😁
