Guest Reviews

• Marion (9/5): Superbe séjour - L’endroit est superbe, particulièrement le jardin avec piscine pour petit-déjeuner sous les orangers. Tout le personnel est formidable : accueillant, plein de bons conseils et la cuisinière est fabuleuse, nous n’avons pas aussi bien mangé de tout notre séjour !
• Corinne (10/5): Very glad we chose Riad Laurence Olivier to be our oasis in the busy bustle that is the lively city of Marrakech! - Where do we begin…the location is perfect if you wish to stay within the walls of the Medina. The host Laurence is lovely, gracious and genuine. The space is beautiful and serene. And last but far from least is the staff…they are ALL EXCEPTIONAL. But most definitely we want to give a warm thank you to SIMON & MOHAMMED for all their great advice about everything one needs to know and see in Marrakech and also, for making My Birthday extra special. We highly recommend Riad & Spa Laurence Olivier to all who want to visit Marrakech. And lest we forget: the turtles are adorable too!
• Neil (8/5): -
• riquier (9/5): - Très beau riad avec un personnel disponible., souriant agréable. Tout était parfait
• BERNE (10/5): Un moment hors du temps. - Tout simplement exceptionnel, le lieu d'abord, un petit coin de paradis à deux pas de l'agitation du quartier des souks. L'accueil ensuite emmené par Simo sans oublier Ali et Mohamed, tout le monde est aux petits soins. Les petits déjeuners sont parfait. Nous sommes pressés de revenir.
• Saira (10/5): - The staff could not have been more helpful. Mohammed was so so kind and thoughtful, he even walked to the shops with us on our first day to get essentials. On one occasion we bumped into a staff member outside of the riad and he went out of his way to walk over to us and ask if we were ok and needed any help. The breakfast each morning was delicious, rooms were clean, luxurious and authentic. So glad we stayed here. Highly recommend. Everything was perfect
• David (9/5): -
• sonyamdi (10/5): Warm Hospitality - We had a wonderful stay at Riad Laurence Olivier, the hole team was very welcoming and friendly. A special thank you to Mohamed for his valuable advice and recommendations, which truly made our stay smoother and more enjoyable. The riad is a peaceful place to relax, and the dinner was absolutely delicious!
• Albina (10/5): -
• BENGÜ (8/5): Lovely environment and great staff - We loved how beautiful the riad itself and the decoration were. Also the staff was very helpful, service was great. Having breakfast as an option was also very nice. According to booking, our room should have had a bath tub. It was missing, was a regular bathroom. This makes price/performance not really successful.
• anncX4550PG (10/5): A step back in time - Stepping through the brass doors into the Riad Laurence Oliver you immediately step back in time to when this was a beautiful home for an affluent family of Marrakech. The fabulous tiled and marble decor throughout the courtyard and stairs, the antique furnishings and the sheer calm and peacefulness of the Riad is lovely. In additiion to the courtyard, there is a garden with pool and a large roof terrace, all great areas to relax after sightseeing. We were lucky to have the largest suite on the first floor with a huge bathroom again decorated and furnished in true Moroccan style. We had a very good breakfast each day in the gorgeous dining room and a very good dinner one of the evenings. The staff, Ali, Simo and Muhammed were amazing and very helpful. The Riad is situated on the east side of the Medina and be prepared for the streets leading to the central Place Jamaa El Fna, to be very busy. Off from this square you will find numerous roof top restaurants, the souks and Mosque. I would recommend a visit to the Jewish Quarter and found the souks and shops here very good. Restaurant Le Tanjia here was extremely good for dinner. We had an excellent personal trip to a Berber village just under the Atlas Mountains. Our guide took us to his village and we had lunch at his family home. Contact www.berber-travel.com to arrange. We also visited what is supposedly one of the best hotels in Africa, La Mamounia and walked around the amazing gardens and had lunch, a little taste of luxury.
• 224madeleinem (2/5): Authentic experience 😫 - Can I advise any traveler to be very cautious if arriving at this riad at night. I was attacked in the grubby ,dimly lit back ally leading to the property. While it is all very well to call something. Authentic and ethnic. At what point do you cross over to dirty unkempt and smelly. To add insult to injury, the property when I finally found it . Was overbooked we were unable to stay. I informed I love Holidays of my experience with photos of my injuries, they asked if I required £70 from them?. I can’t imagine what for ,can you?.Lunch perhaps, my family and I bought airline tickets home .Please enjoy Morocco while always being aware. What is declared theatricaly as the true Moroccan experience. May be a great deal rougher and dirtier than you expected
• Jessica (8/5): Coup de cœur pour Simon et son équipe! - Nous avons apprécié la sympathie et la réactivité du personnel à répondre rapidement et efficacement aux situations, qu’il s’agisse de problèmes, ou de demandes. Un grand merci à Simon et son équipe !!! De Jessica et Yorick de Suisse. Nous avons eu un soucis avec une chambre une odeur d’égout, impossible de dormir tellement que l’odeur était forte. L’emplacement du Riad est beaucoup trop loin du centre, environs 20-25 minutes de marche. Les chambres mériteraient un coup de rénovations.
• Gail (9/5): -
• Carla (9/5): Un’oasi di pace nella caotica Medina - Posto incantevole, arredi curati ed in perfetto stile marocchino, terrazza e giardino interno meravigliosi. Colazione ottima e abbondante. Una sera ci siamo fermati anche a cena, ottima e preparata con molta cura. Lo staff è cordialissimo e sempre pronto a dare suggerimenti ed aiuto. Un grazie particolare a Mohamed e Simon per la loro cortesia e simpatia. Nulla
• ISABELLE (9/5): - L accueil les conseils l ampathie du personnel La propreté et la qualité de la literie Le hammam privatisé Les nombreuses terrasses La restauration
• Ilana (9/5): -
• Diane (10/5): - Perfect in every way.
• W9582DGamandac (10/5): A peaceful Christmas - This riad is located close to the souk in Marrakesh where we stayed for 4 nights over Christmas. Once you step through the door you are in a beautiful oasis of calm. The decoration of the central court is beautiful and orange trees provide shade and perfume as you relax and drink the Moroccan tea that is offered at every opportunity. The room that we occupied was beautifully decorated and comfortable and the bathroom was similarly colourful The staff were attentive and very helpful in giving direction around the area and recommendations for restaurants etc. The traditional Moroccan breakfasts served with a variety of Moroccan breads were a good start to the day and the two dinners we had, cooked to order were excellent. This was a wonderful place to stay and I would love to return in the warmer weather to take advantage of the beautiful garden and pool.
• Curious67950357259 (10/5): A Perfect Place from which to see Marrakech - This is a fantastic Riad giving you everything you need for a magical experience in Marrakech. Architecturally the place is stunning with amazing artifacts everywhere you look. The cooking was first class and the staff could not be more helpful. Add to that the entire old Medina is an easy walk away, and you are in the heart of the chaotic experience that is Marrakech. The stay really was perfect.
• Gilles (10/5): Exceptionnel - Endroit magnifique, suite superbe et merveilleux hammam. Et trrès grande gentillesse et disponibilité de toute l'équipe. Mention spéciale à Simo ! Et un immense merci à Muhamad, à la cuisinière, et à la praticienne du spa.
• Nicolas (10/5): -
• COSTA Serge (9/5): Magique - Personnel très attentif et gentil. Cadre superbe, tranquille et hors du temps. Souper à la demande - goûtez le (gros) poisson au four. Peut-être prévoir une télévision si météo incite à ne pas trop bouger...
• Nicola (10/5): Stunning and fab location - Incredibly beautiful . Very kind and helpful staff . The waiter could not have been more lovely . We were in the suite the bathroom is incredible . Like from a palace . We had a hamman and the lady was adorable and made us very comfortable. Slightly cold because it’s winter and it’s all marble
• Alexandre (10/5): Tout simplement parfait - Le personnel était aux petits soins, la cuisinière mériterait une étoile. Nous le savions la piscine n’était pas chauffée, mais entièrement à l’ombre à cette époque, elle était extrêmement froide
• Claire_S_Wanderlust (10/5): The Best Place to Stay! - Stayed here with my friend a couple of weeks ago on a last minute trip to Marrakech and it was absolutely incredible! The riad itself it stunning and a peaceful sanctuary from the bustle of the Medina. We were greeted by Muhamet who was the kindest, most gracious person and he couldn't do enough for us. As this was our first time visiting Marrakech and as two young women we wanted some tips on getting about safely and things to do, and Muhamet was kind enough to sit with us and tell us about various day trips, getting around to sightsee and general tips for the area. We were so grateful for this knowledge as it was super helpful for getting around! Our room was gorgeous, and the whole place was peaceful, clean and well kept. Muhamet served us the most beautiful Moroccan breakfast every day and was on hand for anything we needed throughout our stay. We were so grateful for his kind hospitality and will never forget it. We felt very safe and at home and comfortable staying here and I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Marrakech, I can't recommend it highly enough!
• ANTHONY (4/5): Arriviamo in questo Riad che si presenta molto bene ed in buona posizione. La struttura sicuramente bella, eravamo gli u - La gentilezza dello staff Visto il prezzo pagato avrei preferito maggior pulizia
• Denise (8/5): Heerlijke ervaring - De toegankelijkheid van het personeel. Bij aankomst een duidelijke uitleg van Mohamed over waar wij als 2 vrouwen goed op moeten letten op straat. Door die tools geen moment ons onveilig gevoelt. Ze reserveren restaurants voor je, als je wilt en er is altijd 1 iemand aanwezig in de Riad voor vragen of hulp.
• Kim (9/5): -
• Martin (10/5): -
• Kerstin (1/5): Eine einzige Katastrophe - nichts Zu Punkt 2 : Bei einer Ankunft um 2 Uhr morgens am Sonntag, 26.10.25 und einer Abreise am Dienstag 28.10.2025 um 10.30 Uhr aus dem Hotel, hat uns einfach gar nichts gefallen. Was schon damit angefangen hat, das kein Fahrer am Flughafen gewesen ist, um uns abzuholen, so wie vereinbart. Mein Zimmer war im Erdgeschoss im Eingangsbereich, direkt neben der Küche. An Schlaf war hier nicht zu denken, weil jeder an dem Zimmer vorbeiläuft. Desweiteren hat sich ein pfeifend, quietschendes Geräusch in das Zimmer übertragen. Tag und Nacht. Die Toilette hat beim benutzen gewackelt, als ob man jeden Augenblick damit umkippt. Die Zimmer sind auf keinen Fall 5 Sterne wert. Desweiteren gibt es kein Restaurant, man kann nicht spontan sagen, wir essen im Hotel. Das Frühstück war eine Katastrophe, von der kein Mensch satt werden konnte. Lauwarmer Kaffee, je 1 Esslöffel Marmelade, 3 Päckchen Butter, 1 Streifen trockener Kuchen, 2 kleine mini hälften von einer Art Fladenbrot. Eine Portion Obsalat und eine Joghurtcreme. Täglich !!!!!
• Gary (10/5): Beautiful. Would go back. - Great location. Beautiful Riad. Pool and outside areas are great for relaxing and the building is stunning and very authentic. Google maps placed the Riad around 100m from its actual location. We were able to find it quite easily via directions from locals but it felt a little uncomfortable being unsure of our location for a few minutes. Not the Riads fault but would be helpful to fix this minor anomaly.
• dominique (9/5): Court mais très bien pour 2 jours - Le personnel, la déco, la nourriture et les petits dej Piscine non chauffée et trop froide pour se baigner.
• T9201QKgaryr (10/5): The Happiest Riad - Spectacular beautiful Riad. The Riad was a museum of items of art and culture. We were fortunate to have booked a suite which was an absolute delight. The ambience and calm of the Riad is created by the place, the people working who made us feel more like family and the birds and tortoise's created the background. All was as described on the description, with a traditional breakfast being served in the beautiful jasmine and bougainvillea lined walls. Room cleaned every day. Hot and cold soft drinks available on request. Towls available poolside. WiFi throughout including terraces. Special mention to the host staff Mohammad and Simone who with notice arrange your hearts desire which for us was a tajine cooking lesson which was an absolute delight. The Riad roof terraces were a favourite haunt especially for the sunrise and sunset with 360 views across the roofs to the mountains that seem to surround the Medina. Truly magical. The location was near enough to the main soukes and squares but far enough to enjoy the peace within the riad. The greatest thing by far was the happiness and laughter from the staff as they went along there day's work which was for Mohammed who seemed to be available 24/7 and always with a smile. Youseff who was so gracious and polite. Would highly recommend asking for the hotel to arrange airport transfer, once at riad a city map is provided with direct routes marked and other tips for your stay. Peaceful and well located allowing you to gain a real insight to Marrakech life as you wander around this amazing Medina.

• Silvia (10/5): Stupendo - Tutto, l’architettura, i colori, l’atmosfera e la gentilezza dello staff oltre una buonissima colazione Non c’è niente che non mi sia piaciuto, avrei magari voluto in piccolo frigo bar per tenere l’acqua fresca, ma è veramente solo un dettaglio
• Hans-Jürgen (10/5): - Dieses Riad ist wie aus 1000 und 1 Nacht. Simon, der Chef des Riads, hat uns nachts sehr herzlich empfangen. Er gab uns sehr viele nützliche Tipps, die sehr hilfreich waren und seine Herzlichkeit war etwas Besonderes. Ali, der für das Frühstück zuständig war hat uns immer sehr freundlich bedient und jeden Wunsch erfüllt. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und wurde in dem wunderschönen Innenhof unter Palmen und Feigenbaum eingenommen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl dort gefühlt, wie in einer Familie. Es wurde viel gelacht und wir sagen herzlichen Dank für die schöne Zeit, die wir in diesem stilvollen Riad verbringen durften.
• Glenda (8/5): -
• I9741ZFtaram (10/5): A little oasis from the hustle and bustle - This is the Riad to stay in if travelling to Marrakech. So beautiful and authentic. My room was clean, spacious and serviced each morning. The pool area and rooftop terrace are truly stunning. It is a little oasis. Breakfast was served each morning with plenty of breads, cakes, fruit and egg choice along with fruit juice and morrocan tea. South of the medina you can walk at a easy pace around 12 minutes to the main square. Might take a little longer if you stop by many of the shops as you enter Souks on the way. The service and staff here are the most exceptional part. As a solo traveller I was made feel safe and very welcome. Mohammed was especially helpful and kind. Whatever I needed or requested was no trouble. I will be sure to stay here on my next visit.
• MOMOKA (10/5): 素敵な滞在でした - 全てが可愛かったしスタッフの方がとっても優しく、ウェルカムスイーツのクッキーをお代わりさせてくれたり、帰りの空港までのタクシーのお金が足りずに困っていたら友達を呼んで破格で空港まで送迎してくださりました☺️🙏🏻🩷 可愛い亀も放し飼いされています！また絶対泊まりに来ます Shukran 🥹🇲🇦🐢

• Ludivine (10/5): -
• Sarah (9/5): Parfait. Merci a mohamed, cimo et le reste du personnel pour leur gentillesse et leur dévouement - Tout. Riad et personnel incroyable. Toujours la et très sympathique La situation et le riad était très bien mais autour ce n'était pas fameux. L'odeur des chèvres n'était pas très agréables. Mais nous avons fait avec

• Sylvie bacqueville (9/5): - Franchement tout était parfait. personnel très agréable toujours près à vous faire plaisir toujours souriant et les repas très très bon
• Jurgen (10/5): Schitterende riad met veel aandacht voor details en geweldig zwembad - Schitterende riad met zeer sfeervolle kamers. Typisch Marokkaans ontbijt met pannenkoeken, vers fruitsap, vers fruit. Zeer aangename tuin met geweldig zwembad. Zeer vriendelijk en aangenaam personeel. Gelegen in de medina maar de taxi kan je op 50m van de deur afzetten. Heel mooie typische binnenkoer met overal prachtig houtsnijwerk. Absoluut niks.
• Sabine (10/5): Tolles Riad in zentraler Lage - Das Riad ist eine kleine Oase im Zentrum von Marrakesch - alles liebevoll gestaltet, das Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit

• Nathan (10/5): - Le riad est magnifique, très bien décoré et très bien situé : même en étant dans la médina le cadre est très calme et reposant. Le personnel est adorable et toujours disponible pour rendre service ! La piscine est un véritable atout pour supporter les chaleurs extrêmes de Marrakech !
• Lynn (9/5): -
• Jason (9/5): Beautiful and relaxing - Gorgeous decor and architecture, a real zen palace only steps away from the medina madness. Breakfast was phenomenal, can’t wait to stay here again. We were trying to pay for our extra drinks before catching the bus to Essaouria, however upon trying to pay we were told the card machine doesn’t work and hadn’t in fact ever worked. This caused a lot of stress because we were then very short on time to catch our bus, and the close by cash machine wasn’t working. Ended up having to pay for a taxi to take us to the ATM, to then return to the riad with the money we owed. Not impressed by this. All very well just taking cash, but mention this to guests when they check in saying only cash payments, that way we would have prepared.
• Mazurais (10/5): Séjour de rêve - Le riad est absolument splendide. L’accueil merveilleux nous n’avons manqués de rien Tout était parfait
• Laurence (9/5): Het was een super leuke vakantie, echt genoten van de stad en de Riad - Het charmante personeel /
• Sarah (7/5): Lovely Riad but needs some TLC. Our bathroom needed painting and aircon wasn’t great - We were not given the room I was told was allocated to us. The breakfast and staff were great. Pool area was good and so were the tortoise. Please give the rooms a bit of TLC and sort out the aircon as rattled as not cool enough. You could make the rooftop space so much better. The area around Riad isn’t the best!
• John H (10/5): Amazing holiday in an amazing hotel - Unbelievable property- luxurious beyond belief and the staff were so so friendly and caring, they would do anything for you. Nothing at all.
• Kelly (10/5): Fantastisch - Zeer mooie Riad en een personeel die steeds klaarstond om aan de eisen van de klanten te voldoen. Ik beveel deze Riad zeer zeker aan, het was zelfs boven mijn verwachtingen.
• Anna (7/5): Beautiful riad but slightly slow service. - Beautiful garden with pool. Nice rood terrace. Friendly staff. The room felt very exposed with only a flimsy glass door and the ac unit was too far from the bed to be effective. Service was quite slow checking in and getting breakfast in the morning.
• kees (9/5): Zeer vriendelijk en gastvrij personeel, behulpzaam - Oase van rust en schoonheid in een drukke stad Was niet direct te vinden
• LJF74 (10/5): Lovely unique riad - Just had the best trip and stayed at Laurence Olivier, greeted by Simonne, such a lovely welcome and couldn’t do enough for us. Gave me a map, tips and advice. So friendly. I stayed in a suite on first floor which was lovely, huge dressing room. Such a fabulous unique designed room. All staff including Mohammad who is just so lovely, organised taxis for us daily, lunch a few times which was also lovely and looked after us so well. Made us feel at home. Spa was best I’ve had, organised again by Mohammad, ladies came to the riad and had a spa room on the top floor with steam room and hot marble just wonderful! 💯 recommend this hotel to anyone. Such a wonderful team all hardworking and with a smile ! Little oasis with lots of birds and tortoises!
• Odyssey59232710540 (10/5): Fabulous stay - We had the best time here. the staff were so helpful and friendly especially Muhammad and Simone. They really made our stay special. They could not do enough for and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend this place. Thank you for making our trip the best ever.
• Catherine (8/5): Très beau Riad avec une décoration très marocaine. Piscine et personnel adorable - le personnel est adorable, excellent petit-déjeuner, la suite jaune est très grande, belle décoration, les lits sont très confortables, la piscine et les patio sont magnifiques. Accès facile des taxis. la SDB de la suite mériterait un rafraîchissement. Difficile de faire la sieste l'après-midi car personnel bruyant. Un peu excentré, mais facile d'accès pour les taxis.

• Rob (9/5): Een heerlijke Riad, met een hele goede sfeer. - De lieve mensen, die de hele dag voor je klaar stonden. De rust. De uitstraling . Fijne kamer. We kregen een update naar een grotere kamer, maar onze kamer beviel ons zo goed, dat we onze kamer gehouden hebben. De bedden waren top Als we iets moeten noemen. De waterdruk in de douche, maar dit is een beetje zoeken
• Cathy (8/5): Je recommande ❤️ - L accueil vraiment très gentil, serviable, beau Riad . L emplacement un peu loin
• Joshua (8/5): - La colazione è andata oltre le mie aspettative. Super buona e abbondante. Prodotti freschi e nutrienti. Buonissima!
• marvsari (8/5): Lovely oasis with perfect rooftop for sunbathing/relaxing. - Positives: location away from souk so not busy or noisy. Riad is full of trees, birds and even tortoises like a mini oasis. Breakfast was lovely and traditional Moroccan dinner. People were lovely, accommodating and keep it clean. Suite YSL is on rooftop, have own garden and rooftop for views/sunbathing. Cash machine on same road and convenience store. Negatives: location means you have to walk to main areas. Situated where people work so u may hear noise in the day. No fridge in Suite, would be ideal for water/refreshments. Overall, lovely oasis with friendly service and not busy like hotels.

• Yurina (10/5): Beautiful riad 🫶🏼 - The staff were really friendly and welcoming :) we didn’t catch the names of two of them, but they were both really nice. Laurence, the owner, greeted us on the last day at checkout too 🥹 The room was huge (Suite)!! We felt like we were in a museum. It was just too beautiful. Shame we were so tired slept early and woke up late 🥹 This was our first time in Morocco, and we stayed here for the last day of our trip. It was definitely the right choice. It’s clean, quiet, and we don’t think we’ll find another place quite like this riad outside of Morocco 🇲🇦 We really loved the tortoise family living in their garden too! 🐢🐢🐢They even have a tiny tortoise, about the size of a thumb😭💚And the garden is so clean. If you don’t like tortoise/ animals, still quite clean. Thank you so much for the hospitality. We’ll come back again one day🫶🏼

• williamfI2228IN (10/5): Total Moroccan Magic - This was our 1st trip to this Riad but it won’t be the last. It was just amazing. Ali was so welcoming and gave us lots of tips to get around Marrakesh. Even though they don’t serve wine ( only beers ) Ali managed to rustle my wife and I a couple of glasses of white wine before dinner. The food was so fantastic, all home cooked. The walk into the main square took about 15 minutes and as ever in Morocco, it was an assault on the senses. We had no trouble finding or getting back to the Riad in one piece. Well done to all the staff.
• 44marylynnef (4/5): A beautiful disappointment - This is the only negative review I've posted since 2018. Yes, the riad is beautiful. The pictures don't lie. And the staff tries to be helpful BUT they don't accept credit cards for charges at the riad (as opposed to making the booking) so I was completely caught off guard. The immediate neighborhood is very rundown and farther from the sights than it appears. You can't walk anywhere, which means taking taxis without seatbelts. Two of the taxi drivers left me off at the wrong places and I needed the help of locals to find the riad. But then the "helpful" locals demanded to be paid. The food is good but except for breakfast you need to tell them several hours in advance if you want lunch or dinner. They don't serve wine. I was the only American there at the time. The other guests, Brits and French, knew to bring their own. I wanted an authentic Moroccan experience after touring the country with Abercrombie & Kent in 2022 and I got it--in spades, so beware.
• Susanna (6/5): Sehr schönes Riad, aber ich würde aus hygienischen Gründen nicht mehr hingehen. Schade! - Das Riad ist eigentlich sehr schön.. wie ein kleines Museum. Wunderschöne Räume. Der Gestank vom Schildkrötenkot. Der war im ganzen Gebäude sehr intensiv und störend. Das Bett war leider auch sehr alt und hatte eine unbequeme Matratze.
• Preet Gill (9/5): Amazing stay. -
• P3742CQcw (10/5): A true gem in Marrakech - We are currently having the most wonderful time at Riad Laurence-Olivier in Marrakech. We arrived last Wednesday for a week. Great points on the property: 1. Location: the Riad is outside the Medina, and yet just 15 minutes walk to the main square of the Medina. It is far enough to avoid the noise and yet close enough to taste what the Medina and souks have to offer. Everyone morning, we wake up to birds' singing. The area gives you a sense of local atmosphere, not the touristy feel inside the Medina. 2. The Raid itself: the owner Madam Laurence is a journalist, writer and artist who managed to transform a period property into a 7 room gem. Furniture and decorations are truly amazing (a museum of items carefully selected). 3. The team: most of the members of the team have been serving guests at the Riad for over ten years. They are treating us like members of their family. Last night, the chef prepared the most wonderful dinner at the dining room. Breakfasts are made up of traditional bread, cakes, fruit and yogurt, with coffee and mint tea! There is a swimming pool to dip in at the garden where you will also find families of tortoises! We did three tours in the last few days. The Imlil Valley tour was a day trip to Atlas Mountain, with peaks covered in snow from a distance and waterfalls. The scenery and having lunch at a local Berber house was an unforgettable experience. The food tour within the Medina was truly enjoyable with the guide leading us to taste different local food and telling us the history of various places. The Agafay desert tour was all about quad bike and camel rides. The dinner and show were quite commercial but expected. These tours were arranged via Madam Laurence. We highly recommend this Riad and sadly we have to leave tomorrow. Shall be back again!

• Ivana (10/5): - Lo staff super gentile e disponibile, la colazione veramente ottima
• Heidi (10/5): An oasis - So beautiful oasis to escape the chaos outside! I have never witnessed such genuine care from the staff even in 5 star hotels. One example: due to a public holiday they knew restaurants were closed so they insisted sharing their own celebration lunch with us and refused to take any money for it.

Chambre merveilleusement décorée. Petit déjeuner incroyable. Terrasse avec vu sur toute la médina très agréable. Nous avons passé un séjour de rêve. Mille merci à la propriétaire Laurence, pour qui nous avons aussi eu un immense coup de cœur. Nous recommandons les yeux fermés. Merci à tous pour ce beau séjour !
• Beatriz Fonseca (10/5): Um oásis no meio de Marraquesh, com o melhor staff e a melhor anfitriã. 5 estrelas - Adorei tudo. O Staff super delicado e atencioso. A Laurence Olivier muito simpática, prestável e querida. O Riad o mais bonito e elegante, super limpo e bem decorado.
• Beatriz Fonseca (10/5): É a segunda vez que vou. E irei voltar de certeza. 🤍 - O Simon é das pessoas mais incríveis que já conheci. A Laurence super querida e preocupada. O espaço é lindo e a piscina super limpa. Adoro. É incrível. O nosso quarto era no 3 andar e fui com a minha mãe de 65 anos no aniversário dela. Uma das toalhas estavam rotas. E apareceu uma barata no quarto. Apesar da localização ser longe permite que a piscina seja grande, com exposição solar. O dia todo a apanhar sol.
