Guest Reviews

• marianne (6/5): - wonderful staff , and host. they were very polite and cleaned really well. host was very helpful too. too many bees on the terrasse during breakfast, almost impossible to use the jelly because the bees sit on the jelly container , and bees were landing on our pancakes, tiny bathroom has very little counter space , with a glass see thru door, dirty shower rug outside the shower , on the floor, room was smaller than i expected ,
• IVAN (9/5): - Calme, très propre, Wafa et Hicham sont adorablement
• Raffaele (10/5): Eccezionale - La posizione, le gentilezza dello staff, colazione con frutta molto buona e fresca ogni mattina Nulla
• Maya (10/5): Lovely stay - Comfy room with nice bathroom. Roof terrace was lovely and breakfast was tasty. Good location right in heart of Marrakech Nothing
• La Shawn (8/5): - Convenient to the market area and pick-up for excursions Bathroom runs out of hot water if other guests beat you to it first. Weather was still chilly. Had one night of no hot water and was unable to take a good shower.
• Debby (10/5): -
• Pauline (9/5): -
• Mathilde (6/5): - -L’emplacement : facile de visiter la médina -La terrasse sur le toit est sympa et le petit-dej était correct -La chambre est beaucoup trop étroite pour 2 personnes. Il n’y a aucun espace pour ranger les valises et elles encombrent le minuscule chemin menant vers la salle de bain. -Il n y a pas de vraie séparation entre la salle de bain/WC et la chambre : niveau intimité ce n’est pas terrible, et dès qu’on allume la lumière de la salle de bain, toute la chambre est éclairée. -Le lit n’était pas spécialement confortable.
• Eduarda (10/5): Very pleased, I would definitely come back. - Cute little riad and terrace. Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and confortable. Location is very good within the medina, but very close to excursion pick up point.
• Mathilde (10/5): Merveilleux séjour - Le personnel est très charmant, doux et à l’écoute. Dans sa globalité, ce fut une merveilleux séjour.
• pathecat (9/5): - Accueil très gentil, personne venue nous chercher au pied du taxi, cadre très joli et senteur florale, pdj très bien en terrasse, ryad calme Vue moyenne sur Marrakech mais pas grave
• Dylan (10/5): -
• Paolo (10/5): - Absolument tout était parfait ! Notre hôtesse a été d'une gentillesse incroyable et le lieu est magnifique, calme et idéal pour se reposer au cœur de Marrakech. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

• Anne (8/5): -
• HELENE (10/5): -
• Sara (10/5): Ho soggiornato due notti in questo Riad e ci siamo trovati molto bene: la struttura è molto confortevole e il terrazzo i - L’accoglienza e la struttura
• Lorenzo (9/5): Staff fantastico - Dopo averci avvisato che il bagno aveva doveva essere aggiustato (prima della nostra partenza) ci hanno fatto un upgrade in un altra struttura loro. Cordiali, puliti e attenti.
• Andrea Celon (9/5): -
• tomas (10/5): - La atencion y el desayuno. Nada
• Maxime (10/5): Moment reposant et agréable - Riad très agréable, joliment décoré, propre et délicatement parfumé à la fleur d’oranger. L’accueil est impeccable. Le petit-déjeuner maison est à la fois délicieux et copieux, servi sur la terrasse, ce qui rend le moment encore plus agréable. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. L’emplacement est idéal pour visiter à pied et faire du shopping. RAS
• Davide (10/5): Una perla nel cuore di Marrakech, personale eccezionale - Struttura situata nel centro della medina, facile da raggiungere grazie anche alle istruzioni che ci hanno inviato poco prima del nostro arrivo. Un piccolo angolo di tranquillità in mezzo al caos di Marrakech. Camere pulite e dotate di tutti i comfort, letto comodo e doccia molto spaziosa. Atmosfera curata nei dettagli. Colazione tipica marocchina eccezionale (servita sulla bellissima terrazza). La ciliegina sulla torta è stata l’accoglienza e la gentilezza del personale, ci siamo sentiti coccolati! Estremamente gentili, ci hanno dato anche consigli su cosa vedere durante la nostra permanenza a Marrakech e ci hanno consigliato un ottimo itinerario! Davvero ci siamo sentiti a casa, in un posto accogliente e con persone splendide. Ottimo soggiorno anche considerando il rapporto qualità-prezzo. Se torneremo a Marrakech prenoteremo qui sicuramente!
• Elena (10/5): Riad Perfecto - Ubicación perfecta, todo el personal muy amable y atento. El desayuno muy rico, todo lo que puedo decir es positivo. Perfecto!
• Amadeo (10/5): Experiencia auténtica en Riad of The Light - Es un riad muy acogedor con pocas habitaciones, lo que hizo que la estancia fuera tranquila. Sin duda, lo mejor fue el desayuno típico marroquí que nos prepararon cada mañana y que sirvieron en la terraza. Muy buena ubicación a pocos metros del zoco.
• Concetta (10/5): Het was top! - De gastvrijheid Nvt
• Harry (8/5): Peaceful resting place within the medina. - This is a very quiet Riad, a lot smaller than expected but pleasant nevertheless. The rooms were lovely, bed was very comfortable. If you’re wanting a peaceful space then this is the Riad for you. A special shoutout to the hosts who were extremely accommodating and very kind. There aren’t very many facilities, outside of the room there isn’t a lot of places to chill.
• Elena (9/5): Bellissimo riad ad un buon prezzo con un’ ottima posizione al centro della medina. Ci siamo trovati benissimo. La posizi - Posizione perfetta, camera curata e pulita, host davvero gentili e premurosi Nulla
• Bianca (9/5): Fijne plek - Rustige ligging, maar vlakbij de drukte. Comfortabele bedden, leuk dakterras, goed verzorgd ontbijt, sfeervolle inrichting. Behulpzaam personeel. We waren er te kort helaas
• Corine (10/5): Exceptional - Riad of the light is an exceptional riad. Tastefully decorated with the best rooftop we had seen so far. We paid separately for the breakfast which definitely was worth it. The bathroom was small but fully in style and the shower was great. And we were amazed how quiet it was in the riad while we were just one street away from the main souk. Everything was great
• elodie (10/5): Petit cocon au sein de la médina - Riad plein de charme très bien situé et calme le soir. Accueil très chaleureux, chambres assez petites mais bien faites et joliment décorées. Petit déjeuner au top sur le toit terrasse. Mention spéciale pour la literie fantastique et la douceur des draps!! En plus ils sentaient bon. Un cocon! Rien
• Bas (8/5): Good hostel in a perfect location in the medina - Location was very good and the staff also. I do think the value for money could be better so therefor not a higher number
• Chiara (10/5): -
• Lydia (9/5): - Lovely clean bedrooms with spacious bathrooms Fabulous breakfast included which was delicious Staff were very helpful It was quite hard to find the riad, however this is usual for Marrakech and we did arrive at night time!
• Cynthia (10/5): De ligging is fantastisch. Iedere ochtend een heerlijk ontbijt gemaakt door Waffa. Deze vrouw is ongelofelijk lief! - De ligging en de rust
• Eleni (10/5): - The staff were really friendly, discrit and helpful. The riad is located very central but it is very peaceful too, when you are there, you dont hear a thing. It was also very clean and beautiful with a big terrace. We liked everyrhing!
• Camille (7/5): -
• Francesco (10/5): Bravi, gentili e ottimo prezzo! - Tutto! Siamo stati bene e con la struttura in una ottima posizione Niente da segnalare
• Govert (8/5): -
• DIANA (10/5): -
• Alessia (10/5): - Riad bello e molto curato in tutti i dettagli! Siamo stati accolti con gentilezza, tè e muffin! Camera piccola ma davvero accogliente e pulita, doccia ottima. Colazione servita in terrazza e direi la migliore colazione che abbiamo fatto per adesso nel nostro tour!
• Laurie (9/5): Riad typique - Dans la Medina mais tres calme Personnel disponible Chambre sombre et exigue pour 2 valises
• Simona (8/5): Dentro la medina - rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo. personale gentilissimo la stanza è un po' piccola
• Lucy Victoria (9/5): Beautiful Riad, in the medina with the friendliest staff. - I absolutely loved my stay here. The staff were amazing, friendly and helpful, they were so welcoming and wanted to help in anyway possible. My room was very clean and cleaned every day. The location is perfect if you like being in the hustle and bustle of the medina (which I did). The roof terrace is a beautiful place to chill as well. Like all riads, noises it echo around so I could hear people opening and closing doors and having conversations downstairs but this didn’t bother me as apart from that it was really quiet all night.
• Martine (10/5): - L'emplacement du Riad, la propreté, le personnel aux petits soins et tellement gentil ! C'est sur que si nous revenons à Marrakech, ça sera au Riad of the Light 😊 Rien de négatif !
• Nina (8/5): Wunderbares Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis - Die Lage ist super, mitten im Souk. Und die Terrasse ist wunderschön.
• Patrick (9/5): J’ai passé un bon séjour. - La gentillesse des personnes La chambre du rdc donne sur la pièce où les personnes déjeunent. Moins de 2 mètres ! Cela peut gêner et il est préférable de demander les chambres des étages.
• imelda mary (9/5): -
• Tomas (10/5): Tranquilidad y bienestar - El alojamiento es un pequeño hotel con mucho encanto, solo tiene cuatro habitaciones. Un remanso de paz en la locura de Marrakech. Las instalaciones están muy limpias. El trato del personal exquisito, siempre pendiente del huésped y de sus necesidades. El desayuno completo y variado. La cena cada día diferente , estuvimos cinco noches, los platos preparados y presentados con mimo y delicadeza. Es un hotel del que te vas muy contento para volver a el, sin duda, si vuelves a Marrakech
• Nathalie (9/5): Un petit riad au calme - Le riad est idéalement situé pour visiter la ville et les souks. Aussi de très bons restaurants dans les environs. L'endroit est très calme, on n'entend pas le bruit de la ville malgré qu'on est en plein centre. Le personnel est adorable et aux petits soins. Le petit déjeuner est délicieux et très agréable sur la terrasse rooftop. Très proche d'une station de taxis. La chambre lits jumeaux est vraiment très petite. Cette chambre est au rez-de-chaussée et est moins intime car les fenêtres donnent sur le salon, il faut donc fermer les tentures.
• Irene (10/5): - Struttura molto pulita ed accogliente, il personale molto gentile. La posizione è ottima in quanto vicina a tutte le attrazioni più importanti ed è vicina al punto di ritrovo per gite e taxi. Colazione ottima
• Scacchetti (10/5): - Molto accoghiente, pulito e profumato
• Gergana (8/5): Good locations and authentic - The riad is close to the market and you can easily get to the most popular places. It is very beautiful and clean. The stuff was very nice and kind. The bed was comfortable. The room was very small and the bathroom was in the room - there was half a door between them. And it is not very comfortable. We stayed for one night, so it was ok, but more I wouldn’t recommend.
• Elvina (8/5): -

Pourrait être amélioré, un petit meuble pour déposer les valises qui sont obligées d'être ouvertes au sol .

El Riad está limpio y bien cuidado, la cama es muy cómoda y cuenta con aire acondicionado y calefacción, que se agradece. El hombre que nos recibió es muy agradable y servicial. Muy recomendable.

• Frankly73 (10/5): weekend invernale a Marrakech - La medina di Marrakech è sempre piuttosto animata di giorno, lungo le strade principali in cui si trovano i souk. Invece il Riad of the Light si trova in una stradina laterale, facilmente identificabile rispetto alla strada principale. Come da tradizione marocchina, siamo stati benevolmente accolti da Ibrahim con il tè alla menta. La stanza con letto matrimoniale si è rivelata un po' piccolina ma comunque confortevole; all'interno della stessa camera, una struttura circolare con cupola ospita il bagno, molto pulito. Durante il nostro soggiorno la stanza è stata risistemata ogni giorno. A gennaio la temperatura a Marrakech può scendere anche di molto, soprattutto di notte; abbiamo potuto riscaldare un po' la stanza attivando il sistema di aria condizionata in modalità riscaldamento. Il fiore all'occhiello della nostra permanenza è stata però la colazione; servita nel patio o nella stanzina adiacente, è davvero abbondante e gustosa, sempre preparata con ingredienti freschi. Giudizio eccellente!
• Cabral García (10/5): Riad con mucho encanto - La ubicación, es un lugar tranquilo, acogedor y muy bonito. El personal de 10, muy atento y amable. Desayuno recién hecho y muy rico. Riad muy recomendable Nada. Todo perfecto
• Nelson (9/5): - Foi apenas uma noite mas gostamos de tudo. Simpatia do funcionário e bom pequeno almoço. Localização também é excelente
• Yasuko (8/5): エンジョイ - 訪問までの丁寧な連絡 受付スタッフの方の対応 美味しい朝食 少し薄暗い通りを入って行く必要があり、夜間到着だと怖いかも
• Jimena (10/5): - The staff was amazing and the location was great! Room is a little bit small.
• Wendy (7/5): Good value . - Good location and very sweet staff . Air conditioning worked well . Breakfast was good. The steps to the rooms were steep .
• Rebecca (10/5): -
• David (10/5): A beautiful stay - The riad was beautiful and exceeded our expectations. The location was great and a very nice area in the Medina. The staff were friendly and always ready to help us when needed. The bathroom is very small, not sound proof and the walls do not go all the way to the ceiling. It was quite uncomfortable and akward when travelling with someone when you must use the bathroom.
