- monserrat (10/5): Bonito riad - Muy limpio y los chicos de la recepción muy amables ! Todo me gustó
- Natalia (8/5): -
- Bogdan Ionut (10/5): -
- Èlia (8/5): - Riad molt maco, habitació força completa, espai amb piscina molt agradable, esmorzar complet i el personal encantador.
- alejandra gabriela (10/5): - Todo. Muy linda la habitación. El desayuno variado. La ubicación a pasos de la Plaza Jamaa . Destacar la atención del personal. Luego del check out nos dejaron estar toda la tarde en los sectores comunes del hotel. Nada. Todo de 10.
- Rebeca (10/5): -
- Tim (8/5): Great location & peaceful rooftop vibes - Nice central location down a quiet alleyway. The welcome was friendly and the interior of the building is beautiful. The rooftop area is nice, although high walls limit any views. Breakfast is ok, plenty of pastries, eggs & veg options. Fell slightly flat compared to meals elsewhere. The room was dark, natural light limited to a heavily frosted window looking inwards to the pool area.

- roberto (8/5): - la ubicacion. el personal muy atentos. mucha humedad en la habitación.
- Miriam (9/5): - Teilweise ziemlich hellhörig.
- Brian (8/5): Unique - Super stay in the heart of the city
Staff so helpful Breakfast was a bit disappointing but edible
- Rafael (10/5): Buen Riad calidad precio con gran ubicación - La ubicación. Muy cerca de la plaza Jemaa el-Fna, en la zona sur de la Medina, con multitud de restaurantes, tiendas y zocos. Zona silenciosa y tranquila pese a su ubicación. El Riad era muy bonito con una piscina central con mucho encanto y el personal siempre atento a cualquier necesidad o petición de los huéspedes. El desayuno un poco justo en calidad y variedad. Se echa en falta más opciones y más calidad para que sea de un desayuno sin más a algo apetecible y recomendable.
- Giuseppe (10/5): -
- Maudi (7/5): A little dated but good and clean and safe - Absolutely stunning architecture Food for breakfast was pretty much cold no elevator and you can hear every bike go by your window
- Betty (8/5): Great location. Staff was SUPER friendly and accommodating. - The location was perfect. Just steps from souks The pillows were so uncomfortable. Very hard. Gave me headaches. The bathroom walls, especially behind the sink, are filthy.
- Philippe (10/5): Riad impeccable - Emplacement proche toutes commodités, jolie riad avec du cachet et le personnel hyper accueillant et à l'écoute. Petit déjeuner sur la terrasse copieux Literie très dur à mon goût.
- Luis (8/5): Alojamiento que cumple expectativas y está muy bien situado. - Ubicación excelente a 5 minutos de la plaza. Fácil de encontrar.
Desayuno buffet correcto. La habitación es cómoda pero no les vendría mal una pequeña remodelación porque las paredes tiene algo de humedad.
El baño más o menos lo mismo.
- Victoria (10/5): -
- Laetitia (8/5): Pour une nuit c’est largement suffisant ! Accueil chaleureux, architecture du riad magnifique - J’ai adoré les échanges divers avec rachad ! La literie , la piscine (dommage que le toit ne soit pas ouvert)! Le hammam et massage étaient super !! Nous n’avons pas aimé le petit déjeuné ! Vraiment moyen ! C’est le seul point négatif que nous pourrions indiquer .
- Bernhard Gandler (9/5): - Bad hätte sauberer sein können.
- Corinne (10/5): Top - Bien situé
Personnel très agréable, compétent et serviable.
Ils ont géré la réservation du taxi à 5h du matin pour l’aéroport et nous ont préparé un petit déjeuner a emporter sans boisson
Très belle chambre, magnifique patio Rien
- Stéphanie (10/5): Parfait ! A 5 minutes à pieds de la place Dejma El Fna ! - La gentillesse du personnel et en particulier le personnel de la réception ! Adorable
- Aurélie (7/5): - La proximité du souk, l'accueil et la gentillesse du personnel. Un peu bruyant mais cela n'est pas la faute du personnel qui a tout fait pour respecter le repos de tous.
- Davide (10/5): Bellissimo!!! - Riad bellissimo,tipico e con tutto il necessario per vivere al meglio la vita frenetica e caotica della Medina… A due passi dalla piazza centrale dove godersi un meraviglioso tramonto davanti ad un aperitivo… personalmente disponibilissimo, gentilissimo e sempre pronti ad aiutarti o/e consigliarti.
- Stéphanie (10/5): -
- Adina (9/5): - Locația Camerele ușor umede și fără aerisire
- Philippe (8/5): -
- Bogdan Ionut (10/5): - Tot. Totul e ok.
- Chrystèle (10/5): - Très bon accueil très beau riad et très propre Sortie de la piscine un peu compliqué car une seule grande marche
- Aušrinė (7/5): Good if you are not planning to have breakfast there - Rooms looks amazing, staff is very friendly, everyone speak English very well. The pool was refreshing. The food was not edible and drinks were not drinkable. If not the food I would give a full 10 for this Riad, but it was very disappointing. It was cold and tasteless, the buffet was basically empty and the coffee from the machine was not a coffee, but a cacao. My stomach stopped working for half of a day after this "breakfast"
- Gloriana (7/5): Gita a marrakesh - Location ottima. Finestre solo verso patio interno. Letto durissimo. Da migliorare qualità del tè e caffè.

- Tomáš (8/5): - Výborná poloha v centre 500 metrov od námestia Jamma El-fna. Slušné raňajky. Čisté izby aj dobrá kúpeľňa. Dobre fungujúca klimatizácia. Býval som na prízemí kde bol občas hluk od recepcie, za to však nemôže hotel ale hlučný turisti.🤷♂️
- Imad Eddine (7/5): - Le petit dej était catastrophique malheureusement
- Joëlle (8/5): - Emplacement parfait, très beau riad, piscine très agréable Les lits étaient un peu durs et la chambre pour 4 pas très spacieuse
- Umberto (10/5): - Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, sehr hilfsbereit und helfen immer und zu jedem Zeitpunkt. Wir fühlten uns direkt familiär aufgenommen und wurden mit einer super guten Laune empfangen. Der beste Hotelempfang, den ich erlebt habe. Die Ausstattung, das Ambiente ist sensationell schön, Spaanwendungen waren klasse, das Frühstück auf der Dachterrasse war köstlich. Die Matratze empfand ich Anfangs etwas fest, aber musste feststellen, dass ich darauf sehr gut geschlafen habe. Somit auch nicht wirklich ein negativer Punkt.
- Gaia (10/5): - Tutto perfetto. Lo staff super gentile e disponibile h24. La posizione é super centrale, la colazione ottima e super varia. Lo consiglio vivamente ❤️
- emma dafne (10/5): Tutto perfetto ! - Bellissima struttura, accoglienza ottima
- Sophie (5/5): - Great location, good communication regarding airport pick up, friendly reception staff Pictures were a little misleading. Bathroom was in very poor condition with mould. The shower was also broken and had to be hand held.
VERY noisy. You can hear everything as it echos throughout the place. You can hear every door being closed and people talking. Staff at reception speaking very loudly very late at night.
Was very disappointed with this place as it looked so great and had really positive reviews
- ANITA APARECIDA (8/5): -
- Shafayath (6/5): - Charged extra money as tourist fee
- Catalina (10/5): Excelente lugar para pasar días en Marrakech - El personal muy atento, siempre prestos a orientar y ayudar! Llegamos con mi hija a la madrugada y nos estaban esperando, la ubicación perfecta para poder recorrer la ciudad a pie! Nada
- Muhammed Selim (10/5): -
- ANITA APARECIDA (8/5): -
- Mónica (8/5): Muy buena - La ubicación muy buena muy cerca de la plaza,aunque es un callejón de la Medina típico de ellos pero es la essencia de aquello,el personal muy muy amable,agradable,siempre ayudando en todo,el desayuno bueno y variable y la terraza fantástica,las habitaciones de la planta baja huelen a humedad pero será por la piscina,la verdad esk el sitio es para vivir una experiencia total de Marrakech,piscina muy limpia y sitio muy bonito. Olor a húmedas en las habitaciones de la planta baja
- Laura (8/5): - Posizione centrale e molto comoda per girare a piedi. Personale sempre pronto e disponibile per ogni richiesta e suggerimento. Il Riad è molto bello e curato così come la terrazza dove viene servita la colazione. I servizi igienici in camera sono da migliorare ma sono comunque essenziali.
- Natalia (7/5): - El desayuno podría mejorarse bastante.
- Don (7/5): Would book again BUT.... - Staff were great! Location also. It seems that I had not booked - or requested a double bed. ok - unusual for me...Young man on reception found me a double room. Threw my bag in and went out. on return - boy! I am not saying it was damp as such - but clearly had had a problem. I have seen other comments on the web about this issue. Floor looked like it might have been damp/ flooded...Not pleasant to sleep in that musty atmosphere. That was last room available.I would consider booking agin - because it had things going for it..would just be careful on allocated room. Mine was room 5 - directly in front of pool.

- Rüdiger (9/5): -
- manuela (10/5): Fantastico! - Posizione fantastica, riad bello e con tutti comfort. il personale super gentile, accogliente, disponibile, professionale. A Colazione non mancava niente, la signora che serviva la colazione preparava al momento i piatti per la mia amica allergica al glutine e ci trattava come figlie! L’hammam poi è stata un’esperienza mistica, siamo rinate ! Possiamo dire di aver trovato una nuova casa! Grazie di tutto a presto!
- Filippo (8/5): -
- Francesco (9/5): Posizione centralissima e camere ampie e pulite - Posizione centralissima a soli 2 minuti do cammino da Piazza Jemaa el Fna.
I ragazzi alla reception sono stati gentilissimi e professionali. Abbiamo chiesto di prenotarci un taxi di notte per arrivare in aeroporto e ci hanno scortato all'auto.
Colazione buona e camere ampie e super pulite.
Peccato non aver usufruito della piscina perché faceva un po' freddino. Poteva essere la ciliegina sulla torta.
Ritorneremmo molto volentieri. Grazie per il bellissimo soggiorno Bisogna lavorare un po' sull'insonorizzazione delle stanze perché si sentono passare i motorini anche di notte.
Bisogna lavorare anche sull'odore di umido della stanza e sulla varietà della colazione anche per quanto riguarda le intolleranze.
- carolina (8/5): - La atención de la persona que nos atendió (amen) super amable y atento Las habitaciones de la planta baja olían mucho a humedad
- Rita (10/5): - Era lindo e próximo de tudo! Não precisei pegar nenhum transporte todos os dias ia até a praça, restaurantes e todos os lugares que precisava e chegava em 5 minutos. Nos dias de passeios eles buscavam há 3 minutos do Riad. Amei!
- DianaMTorres (10/5): Un excelente lugar en el corazón de la Medina - La ubicación excelente así como la instalaciones y todo el personal muy amable La verdad no tengo queja alguna
- Cristina (10/5): - Localização excelente. A poucos metros de uma rua principal e da praça central. Pequeno-almoço muito bom e variado. Camas confortáveis. Muito limpo. Funcionários simpáticos e prestáveis. Nada a apontar
- Aïda (9/5): - El personal encantador, el desayuno muy bueno, ubicación perfecta, muy cuidado y limpio. El masaje después del hammam fue muy relajante Nos hicimos un hammam y pasamos un poco de frío. Si que es verdad que se oye todo pero todos los riads son así

- Marco (7/5): I would say the stay was as expected, in fact I recommend it as it is used for sleeping because for the rest of the day - The reception staff were polite, precise, and kind. They were always available for anything, advising us on how to get around the city. Welcoming structure, strategic location, but very humid at least our room, perhaps due to the nearby swimming pool and poor air circulation
- Maria Mash (10/5): Great Riad - Beautiful interior, friendly staff and service. Variety for breakfast options. Quiet and central.
- Julio (10/5): Ubicación ideal - La ubicación, el trato del personal. Un poco húmeda y oscura la habitación que me tocó.
- florence (8/5): - Proximité et gentillesse du personnel Un peu bruyant insonorisation
- Carlos (8/5): -
- MICHELA (8/5): Ultimo giorno a Marrakesh - La struttura, la terrazza e la posizione eccellente. Staff di accoglienza super gentile Colazione da migliorare,qualità molto molto scarsa.
- Roxana (10/5): - I had a very pleasant experience at this riad in Morocco. The location is beautiful, situated in an accessible area of the old Medina, which makes exploring the city easy and enjoyable.
The breakfast was tasty and well-prepared, providing a great start to each day. Cleanliness was maintained at a very good level throughout the stay, which contributed significantly to the overall comfort.
A big plus is the staff, who were extremely kind, attentive, and always willing to help with anything we needed. Overall, I highly recommend this riad for an authentic and relaxing experience in Morocco.

- Guest (10/5): -
- Gabriella (7/5): Bene ma non benissimo - Sicuramente la posizione privilegiata, a due passi dalla piazza principale e da tutte le attrazioni.
Buona la colazione ma, da migliorare.
Il personale all'accoglienza è stato gentile, premuroso e diponibile. La pulizia in genere!
- Carl (8/5): - Great location room was quite noisey from motorcycles going by throughout the nights.
Staff very friendly. Just a bit noisey, once I mooved rooms it was better
- Lucia (10/5): Disfrutad de este increible riad - El riad es precioso, muy centrico y el personal super amable. Se agradece poder disfrutar de la piscina en estos calurosos dias y que puedas guardar tus cosas en el riad si el vuelo sale tarde. Repetiré sin duda!
