Guest Reviews

• Sandra (10/5): - Love this location as it was close to the entrance of the medina so getting a taxi with all our luggage was easy inconvenient and we didn’t have to walk a long way at all to get our things to this Medina. The staff was friendly. The rooms were really comfortable and we couldn’t be happier with or stay there. One of the reviews said there were no locks on the outside of the door, which is true but they do provide a padlock with key and it’s so safe that I wouldn’t even worry about that. Would highly recommend this place.
• Sayona Tiya (10/5): - Staff was lovely, very accommodating. Riad was in a good location
• Verified traveler (10/5): Très bien ! - Très bon séjour au riad Awa Seul bémol : les chambres ne se ferment pas et la piscine est tout de même assez petite. Mais le personnel est adorable, on vous accueille avec un thé marocain et surtout à chaque fois qu'on vous ouvre la porte c'est avec le sourire ! A proximité de tout, tout se fait à pieds, mais ne tombez pas sur les restaurants à proximité qui sont pur touristique et pas authentiques.
• Adele (6/5): - Iv stayed here before and as always staff are excellent and very kind people. Although the riad is beautiful they do need to deep clean it including light shades lamps and curtains as they were very dusty. A different washing powder and less of it should be used to wash sheets as the one they have makes the bedding smell. Tissues and handwash was not replenished when needed or asked for. Breakfast was the same everyday consisting of bread choco pain jam and butter, tea and coffee. This needs to be reviewed. The riad and customers would benefit from an evening meal being offered at a cost as food in the medina is very poor.
• Eva Maria (8/5): - Das Riad hatte einen schönen Pool auf der Dachterrasse. Das Frühstück war durchschnittlich und leider jeden Tag sehr ähnlich. Für den Preis jedoch in Ordnung.
• Rovasoa (10/5): - Le Riad Awa est très agréable avec une superbe terrasse et piscine. Le personnel est très gentil et n'a pas hésité à être au petit soin pour nous. Son emplacement est très bien situé car tout peut être fait à pied. Nous recommandons bien évidemment cet hébergement !
• JOAO HENRIQUE (8/5): Boa! - Achei o café da manha razoável, muito barulho vindo da cozinha do riad, o chuveiro não era muito bom, a água ficava fria! O staff era legal, solícito. A porta do quarto ficava sem poder trancar quando saíamos!
• I (6/5): Not really the best room in the Riad - We stayed in the exclusive suite. Beautiful decor - lots of space - large bathroom and Superking bed The only issue was noise. The room is beneath the rooftop pool and the noise from the pool circulation pump was dreadful - it was normally switched on around breakfast time until around 6pm - but on one occasion was switched on at 7am making sleep impossible. Not a relaxing place to be during the daytime We were there 4 days and one day the pool was being refilled and, again, the noise from this was unbearable when in the room There was also street noise until around midnight though, to be honest, we had expected that The drench shower was not working when we arrived and took 2 days to repair. We were offered use of the staff facilities whilst waiting repair but chose to muddle through with the handheld shower Breakfast was lovely and location was good - about 10 min walk to Place Djemaa El Fna
• Paul Anthony (10/5): - A beautiful, quiet Riad within walking distance of all you might want to see..such friendly staff, great breakfast, rooftop pool and the most comfy bed I have EVER slept on. Perfection.
• Julien (8/5): Beau Riad mais quelques améliorations à faire - Accueil sympa. Décoration moderne et avec du bon goût. Bon confort de la literie. Un peu déçu des finitions dans la chambre vu le prix. Problème sur le pommeau de la douche et son support. Fenêtre de la salle de bain qui ne ferme pas. Évier bouché avec eau stagnante, il aura fallu demander 3 fois pour que ça soit enfin réglé.
• Laurence (10/5): - Merci à toute l'équipe pour votre accueil, lieu magnifique. Reposant et très bien placé A très bientôt Laurence et Laurent
• Chung (10/5): Beautiful riad and amazing staff - Lovely Riad, matches the whole vibe of Marrakesh. Room was comfortable and spacious. The upstairs balcony was lovely and had a pool and benches for sunbathing. Staff were lovely and very accommodating and there was breakfast included every morning when you were ready. Only thing I would mention is the hot water ran out quite quickly, it’s fine if you go during summer but during March, it can be a little chilly.
• Sonja (8/5): - Road Awa is lovely, it's beautifully designed and presented. The only negative feedback is the acoustics made me feel a bit awkward. It's very quiet. In the room there were gaps around windows and cupboard doors didn't fit in frames so didn't provide any soundproofing buffer. Given that people breakfasted just outside my window it felt a bit weird. Also, the call to prayer was very loud at 4 and5am. I think some small adjustments woule make all the difference.
• Lawrence (10/5): - As it was our first time staying at a Riad we really weren't sure what to expect however staying a Riad Awa was an absolute pleasure. Staff were always very friendly and accommodating towards us. At short notice they allowed us to change breakfast times due to excursions. The room was tended to daily with fresh towels etc Tea was also on offer whenever you fancied it with no bill thrown at you afterwards The Riad itself was exceptionally clean tidy and peaceful with the only one regret that the weather wasn't good enough for us to enjoy the sun on the roof. Location wise I genuinely think we were perfectly placed surrounded with popular cafes and the mosque that just so happens to be a very popular places for a pick up point when it comes to excursions. There was around a 10-15min walk to the main square leading towards the souks with ATMS and cafes on route and also thinking about it were mostly away from the hustle & bustle of the main square which was quite nice as it can get a little intense near the square at times. I would highly recommend staying at Riad Awa and would definitely return to this Riad if we were to return in the future
• Elizabeth (10/5): - Amazing staff!! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, truly felt like home for the week!! The location made it so easy to walk into the main square of the city but was in a nice and quiet area. 10/10 recommend this Riad in Marrakech.
• toby (10/5): - The riad was so lovely, room amazing, pool great and staff super friendly. Sadly the speaker for morning pray felt like it was in the room and went off at 04:30 every morning
• Zahed (10/5): - A small intimate riad that was perfect for an anniversary trip. We were well liked after for meals and amenities, including an authentic hammam and massage and a lovely rooftop terrace to lounge in.
• Evelina (10/5): Så trevligt och toppen läge - Jag och min mamma bodde på Awa i 5 nätter. Servicen var toppen och alla var väldigt trevliga och hjälpsamma. De hjälpte till att boka både en utflykt till Ouzoud vattenfall och hamam på plats på riaden. Kan verkligen rekommendera! Frukosten var bra och vi spenderade även några timma på takterrassen efter en dag i soukerna. Läget var verkligen perfekt för oss! Kan också rekommendera streetfood som fanns ett par hundra meter från riaden, billigt och gott!
• Helene (10/5): Parfait - Très bien situé. Quartier tranquille. Personnel hyper serviable et très sympa. The et gâteaux offerts à l’arrivée.
• Sandra Romina (8/5): - An sich war der Urlaub schön, das Personal war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Die Massage kann ich nur empfehlen, für marokkanische Verhältnisse etwas teuer (45min-40€) aber das Geld war sie wert! Was wir nicht so gut fanden, war das man so gut wie keine Privatsphäre hat, man kann die Türen nicht verschließen. Es ist alles sehr hellhörig, man kann nicht ungestört auf die Toilette, der Partner im Zimmer hört alles. Es ist ansonsten familiär und schön gemacht. Es liegt in einer engen Seitengasse, dort würde man niemals ein Riad vermuten wenn man noch nie in Marrakesch war.
• Ainan (10/5): Cosy and beautiful riad - Very cosy beautiful riad with minimalise Moroccan design. Loved our stay!
• Jacqueline (10/5): Süßes Riad in Marrakesch - Schön eingerichtet, jedes Zimmer hat eine andere Einrichtung. Wir konnten jeden Tag entscheiden, wann wir frühstücken & hatten Tee, Kaffee und frisch gepresstes Orangensaft. Es war 24 Stunden jemand da und es wurde sich immer direkt gekümmert, die Gegend ist ein toller Ausgangspunkt um Marrakesch zu erkunden. Toller Unterkunft für den Preis.
• Robert (10/5): - First, staying at the Riad places you in the middle of Marrakech madness, but the Riad Awa is a delight recluse from the chaos. It is cool, quiet, and seemingly teleports you to another place. Only 6 rooms, it is pleasantly small but the rooms are set over two floors encircling an interior courtyard.
• Rachael (10/5): Riad Awa is highly recommended - Fantastic Riad in a great location. We were really well looked after by the team. Lovely breakfast and great rooftop terrace. A peaceful hideaway from the hustle and bustle outside. We'd definitely book again
• Jasper (6/5): - The property came with several inconveniences: - The shower is not isolated, the two of us were not a couple so it was awkward for one of us to take a shower - The “double bed” was not a double bed, it was less than 2m in length - The wifi did not reach the room at all - The room had no windows to outside - The host did not speak any English so it was difficult for us to communicate The good things: - Beautiful decor - Clean rooms - The location was good
• Bjørn (10/5): Rigtig skøn Riad. - Denne Riad har en fantastisk beliggenhed i centrum af Kabbah området, der er 10 minutters gang til centrum af Marrakech. det er 3 gang vi er på denne Riad, og det er det flinkeste personale, altid søde og hjælpsomme. Der er den skønneste tagterrasse og en fin lille pool. Skønne store værelser og en dejlig atmosfærer. Alt er flot og vedligeholdt.
• Hannu (10/5): Ihana lepopaikka Medinan keskellä - Upea Riad Medinassa, helppo oli taksin löytää. Rauhallinen vaikka kaiken hulinan keskellä. Palvelualtis henkilökunta.
• Giuseppe (8/5): - Tutto perfetto colazione ottima pulizia ottima gentilezza dello staf peccato senza tv e frigobar
• Kelsey (10/5): - Great location…you’re not located in the crazy part which is really nice. Walking distance to a strip of restaurants and where all the street food is located. Close taxi ride to Medina. We walked there it wasn’t too bad but we enough walking. But lots of cars to look out for The riad is little hard to find at first but it was night time and I think that’s normal in marrakesh. But once we found it, we never got lost . There’s a parking lot just about a 5 min walk from the riad. We paid him 10 euros for 2 nights. We probably over paid but we got in late and had been traveling for over 20 hours so we didn’t care. The man who greeted us was very polite and kind offered us some tea and cookies when we arrived. Our room was very clean and big. It was a little nosey cause our room was just outside the common area but wasn’t a big deal to us. The Terrance with pool on the roof was very cute. Breakfast was very good, the ladies there are also very kind and friendly. Would recommend 100 percent to anyone coming to Morocco. It was our first time to Morocco and loved it.
• Linda (10/5): - Hele mooie, schone riad in het midden van de medina. De locatie is heel centraal. De mensen zijn super behulpzaam en het onbijt is heerlijk. We hebben een leuke tijd bij jullie gehad. Fijn om in het drukke leven van marrakech bij deze riad binnen te komen en even af te sluiten van alle drukte.
• Nicola (8/5): - The staff were incredibly helpful, lovely pool area, nice breakfast. Just warning that noisy given location next to a busy road.
• Samuel (8/5): - Rooms can be locked from the inside, but no locks on outside of the rooms. There was a safe for valuables but just something to be aware of. Good breakfast and nice to have the terrace with the pool. 6 sun loungers so normally some free but not always. Good wifi throughout
• Lea Sophie (10/5): - Wunderschönes Riad Mitten in der Stadt mit kleinem Pool auf der Dachterrasse. Leider etwas hellhörig und sehr harte Betten. Sehr nettes Personal, kleines leckeres Frühstück.
• peter (10/5): - Lovely people and beautiful rooms
• Margaret (10/5): - The Riad is beautiful and well kept. They staff are very friendly and always on hand to help. The location in the Kasbah area is ideal to get to everything you need and the rooftop small pool and sun deck allow time to relax away from the hustle and bustle.
• Jasper (10/5): Great - Just great all the Way
• Glenn (10/5): Book here. - This hotel understands the concept of service and does it right the first time. It was one of the most comfortable hotels I have stayed in for the last 10 years. The Staff added a omelet for breakfast when asked, the rooms were huge and clean- the roof patio a gem.
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Les photos ne reflètent pas la réalité. Climatisation defectueuse à notre arrivée, terrasse sale, piscine mal entretenue, personnel d'accueil peu professionnel, riad sans ambiance ni chaleur humaine. Très cher pour la saison et pour le service rendu. Par contre chambre spacieuse et bonne situation géographique. Quel dommage !
• Ivar (8/5): Hyggelig riad i Kasbah’en - Rolig Riad med bra beliggenhet innen gangavstand til de fleste stedene i Medinaen. Flott lite basseng på takterrasse hvor vi kunne sole oss og slappe av. Hyggelig og serviceinnstilt betjening selv om ikke alle snakket engelsk.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Un accueil personnalisé, toujours la présence d’un membre du personnel qui vous ouvre la porte, sentiment de beaucoup de sécurité. Le riad Awa est parfaitement situé, à quelques pas des monuments et sites d’intérêts dans le kasbah mais d’où il est également très facile de rejoindre le parking gardé et les grandes axes routiers. Nous avons spécialement appréciés les repas servis sur la terrasse ainsi que tous les bons conseils qui nous ont été fournis chaque jour. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - L’endroit est très sympathique, une vraie immersion dans la ville ; l’ensemble du personnel est très prévenant, attentionné. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et très bien servi. Merci pour les conseils de visites et restaurants. Une belle découverte que nous ne manquerons pas de conseiller.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Hotel was nice and clean with very friendly staff happy to go out of their way to make us happy. We had a day trip departing prior to scheduled breakfast time and they accommodated an earlier time to get us some breakfast before our excursion.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Charmant RIAD aux portes de la Medina. Endroit relativement calme au plein coeur de Marrakech. Chambre et terrasse très agreables. Les lits sont confortables. Le personnel est serviable. A recommander.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Bene ma... - Tutto benissimo, servizio in particolare. Colazione buona, ma paste “industriali”. Peccato per bagarozzi trovati in doccia per due giorni di fila.
• Verified traveler (10/5): AMAZING UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE!! - What an Incredible experience!! Impecable service, impecable cleanliness and commodity! Not for 1 second did I feel like something was not special about this place! I will be always in gratitude with such an amazing staff. The location is perfect. Not too close to the noisy center but close enough to see all the wonderful places in this city.
• Traveller (10/5): Perfect location walk to main square and Souks - Friendly, helpful staff. Clean and well kept rooms with air con unit in our room that made all the difference so we slept eell and could keep cool in the afternoons when it was too hot outside. Beautiful roof terrace with a swimming pool. Breakfast served with fresh bread, crossants, fruit, orange juice, yogurt and a local dish. Lovely communal areas. We arrived at midnight due to a delayed flight and was welcomed with fresh mint tea and a very cheerful member of staff.
• Sophie (10/5): - Le Riad était absolument merveilleux, intime comme reçus chez ds amis, la décoration merveilleuse, le personnel d’une gentillesse extrême : disponible, nous prodiguant des conseils de visite. Le quartier est parfait pour les visites, on peut tout faire à pied et cerise sur le gâteau les repas sont délicieux au prix de 17€ entre , plat et dessert, foncez les yeux fermés vous ne serez pas déçus .
• Verified traveler (10/5): Riad de caractère - Bonjour Notre séjour dans ce riad nous a été très agréable, par le charme des lieux, ainsi que part le dévouement des personnes à notre écoute, une pensée a bouchera et Mohamed ( qui nous fait notre petit dej à 5h30 du matin) À une prochaine.
• Anne (8/5): Beautiful Riad in excellent location! - Our stay was extremely pleasant. Room was spotlessly clean and staff very helpful. Rooftop was a quiet escape from hustle and bustle of Medina. Would return to Riad Awa for sure!
• Oi Wah (8/5): Staying in a Riad - It's good to stay at a Riad. It's an authentic and unique experience. Service is good and people are friendly. Location is superb.
• Julie (8/5): Nice modern riad - Nice up to date riad in a good location near the mosque and gate.
• RZIslam (10/5): Cute Clean Riad in a great location - We stayed at Riad Awa for 4 nights. The riad was very clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served on the terrace, which was great. They gave us a map on our first day and gave us good advice regarding local restaurants. The only issue we had was the low wall partition between the bedroom and ensuite bathroom. we didn't feel comfortable with that but apart from that 10/10.
• David (10/5): - Great hotel. Very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff.
• sandra et paul (10/5): Riad à découvrir - Très beau Riad dans la médina. Personnel adorable. Piscine sur la terrasse. Les repas sont délicieux (à commander le matin pour le jour même car fait maison et à la commande). Riad propre et au calme.
• Jacky & Dave (8/5): central, quiet and secure riad. - Ideal location for local restaurants and tourist attractions. Safe and quiet despite being in the midst of local life. Comfortable and relaxing place to stay with great staff and good local food. Would very happily return.
• karyna (8/5): Nice riad in good location - Had a great time at the riad! The staff were great and very helpful! They had very yummy breakfasts! Loved the Moroccan pancakes :) had a great hammam experience and the staff helped arrange taxis and excursions! The taxi to and from riad was pretty expensive and the mosque is next door so be prepared for the early morning wake up call! Very good experience :)
• pablo (4/5): Me toco una habitación que ni el a/c me calenta. - No le aconsejó a nadie ir. Fuimos al atlas y en 5 km 3 multas. Se comunican entre ellos para q les des siento y no pagues la multa.( hablo de las policía de tráfico ) solo para turistas con coches renta card. Tenemos un vidio como se reían de nosotros
• Jean-Marc (10/5): Havre de paix à quelques pas du coeur de la Médina - Alliance très réussie des matériaux traditionnels et d'un style contemporain. Equipe marocaine jeune, accueillante et compétente
