Guest Reviews

• Melissa (10/5): A wonderful Riad for a tranquil and quality experience. - Everything! We really enjoyed the personal care and attention. Breakfast each day was extra special outside whilst enjoying the gardens. I highly recommend this Riad for a tranquil and quality experience. Nothing
• Jerome (10/5): Fantastic - Voor een spontaan lang weekend besloten wij te verblijven bij Riad Sougtani en achteraf gezien hadden we geen betere keuze kunnen maken. Meestal kiezen wij voor hotels in het centrum, maar deze plek gaf ons juist de rust en sfeer waar we behoefte aan hadden. Wij reisden met twee volwassenen, een kind van 11 en een baby, en vanaf aankomst voelde het meteen persoonlijk en ontspannen. Omdat het een familiegerunde riad is, hangt er een warme en oprechte sfeer. Iedereen is ontzettend vriendelijk, denkt met je mee en doet echt moeite om je verblijf zo prettig mogelijk te maken. De tuin is prachtig onderhouden en voelt bijna als een kleine oase, met fruitbomen, veel groen en dieren zoals schildpadden en katten. Een fijne plek om even weg te zijn van de drukte van Marrakech. De kamers waren netjes, schoon en werden dagelijks verzorgd. Goede bedden, fijne douche en alles wat je nodig hebt voor een comfortabel verblijf. Ook het eten verdient echt een compliment. Ontbijt, lunch en diner werden vers bereid en volledig afgestemd op je wensen. Je geeft vooraf aan wat je lekker vindt en wanneer je wilt eten, wat zorgt voor een heel persoonlijke ervaring. Daarnaast konden zij ook taxi’s en uitstapjes regelen, wat erg handig was en alles een stuk makkelijker maakte. Wij kwamen hier terecht vanwege de vele positieve recensies, en inmiddels begrijpen wij volledig waarom zoveel mensen enthousiast zijn over deze plek. Er zijn tegenwoordig nog maar weinig accommodaties waar gastvrijheid zo vanzelfsprekend aanvoelt. Geen overdreven luxe of gemaakte service, maar gewoon oprechte aandacht, kwaliteit en een ontspannen sfeer voor een eerlijke prijs. Voor ons absoluut een plek om nog eens terug te komen. Niets
• viridiana (10/5): La perfection! - Waw! Quelle pépite! Cet établissement est magnifique. Le plus beau riad du monde! On se sent comme un roi! Tout est très beau. Le service est impeccable (et sympathique)! Le gérant est très accueillant! La nourriture est succulante. Les vues des toits sont magnifiques. Vraiment à conseiller; allez-y les yeux fermés! Merci à tous! Nous avons adoré votre établissement. Rien. Tout était parfait!!!
• Alexandre (10/5): - Le calme et le personnel
• Anna (10/5): - Eine wunderschöne familiengeführte Unterkunft mit viel Herz und Geschichte - das Riad war früher das Gästehaus der alten Kasbah. Die Lage ist perfekt, eine Oase der Ruhe nur 30 Minuten von Marrakech und zugleich eine gute Basis für Ausflüge in die Berge oder das Umland. Das Frühstück und Abendessen waren die Besten auf unserer gesamten Reise. Auch das Zimmer ließ nichts zu wünschen übrig, stilvoll eingerichtet und sehr gemütlich. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!
• Nicolas (10/5): Sublime. - Tout était parfait.
• Justine (10/5): Séjour superbe dans un cadre magnifique et reposant avec du personnel adorable - Personnel très sympathique, petit-déjeuner délicieux et conséquent. Le lieu est magnifique et le jardin incroyable. Le séjour était reposant et ressourçant RAS
• Alexandre (10/5): Nous avons été reçus comme des rois dans un cadre qui dépassait toutes nos attentes... - Le cadre était idyllique et tellement calme/reposant, chambre incroyable (mention spéciale pour la douche), accueil et service aux petits oignons avec un respect de l'intimité fortement apprécié (on nous invite dès notre arrivée à faire comme chez nous). La végétation et l'ambiance du Riad font penser à un palais digne des plus beaux décors du cinéma. Diner romantique délicieux (3 services) et petit déjeuner extraordinaire avec le lever du soleil. La piscine était un peu trop froide (début novembre).
• Luca (9/5): Riad Relax - Personale molto disponibile e sempre presente. Colazione e cena di qualità. Ottimi servizi, bellissima la gita in quad. Se dovessi trovare un difetto, piscina in ombra.
• Tarik (9/5): Magnifique séjour - Tout. Emplacement au calme en dehors de la ville. La beauté du riad, le jardin, les chambres décorées avec beaucoup de style, la nourriture, la gentillesse du personnel Tout état parfait. L’unique bémol était que la piscine n’était pas chauffée
• Andriessen (10/5): Geweldig - Alles, het was fantastisch! Super mooie locatie, vriendelijk personeel en ook heel behulpzaam, alles super proper. Alles was perfect!
• Amandine (10/5): Un havre de paix : foncez ! - Tout est parfait : l’accueil, les repas, le lieu au calme si reposant Rien tout était tellement parfait
• Rui (10/5): -
• Michel (10/5): - Jardin magnifique dans une très grande demeure historique, piscine agréable et vue des toits interessante. Le riad lui-même est dans un petit village et situé entre la très ancienne Kasbah (ruinée) et la 'nouvelle' Kasbah (150 ans). Calme et reposant. Certes, assez loin du centre de Marrakech mais c'était notre objectif, mais cependant facile d'accès .. Dîners et petit déjeuners avec produits et cuisine locale de qualité, Accueil et attentions très appréciés.
• Otmane (9/5): Séjour détente dans un havre de paix magique au sud de Marrakech - Havre de paix à l'écart des embouteillages de Marrakech où l'on découvre la vraie signification d'un Riad, à savoir un magnifique jardin ombragé avec arbres fruitiers et belle fontaine d'eau centrale qui rafraichit les magnifiques pièces situées autour du Riad, toutes dans des styles traditionels typiques des grandes maisons de maître, comme celle du Caid Sougtani qui a fait construire ce petit palais il y a plus d'un siècle. Le Manager Souhail est aux petits soins. Le petit-déjeuner est royal et le déjeuner au coeur du Riad , magique. A faire et refaire. S'il faut vraiment trouver un défaut...la douche de la piscine qui ne fonctionnait pas bien :-) !!
• Clémence (9/5): Dépaysant, reposant, ressourçant. - Notre séjour a été parfait du début à la fin. Nous avons été accueillis avec beaucoup de chaleur par le propriétaire, qui a pris le temps de nous expliquer en détail le fonctionnement du Riad et les spécificités du lieu. Bien que situé à l’écart du centre de Marrakech, cela correspondait tout à fait à nos attentes, car nous cherchions justement un endroit plus proche du lieu du mariage auquel nous étions conviés. Le Riad est superbe : récemment rénové avec goût, il allie charme traditionnel et grand confort. Les petits-déjeuners sont particulièrement copieux, variés et savoureux — un vrai moment de plaisir chaque matin. Nous tenons aussi à souligner la beauté du jardin, très bien entretenu, qui ajoute une atmosphère paisible et reposante à l’ensemble du séjour. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter. Nous avons tout apprécié de notre séjour, à l’exception d’un léger souci récurrent avec le wifi. Cela peut être un peu contraignant lorsqu'on doit travailler à distance, mais cela n’a en rien entaché la qualité globale de l’expérience.
• badr (10/5): Un accueil magnifique, rien à dire ! -
• Dmitry (10/5): Exceptional - We had a great time during our stay. Beautiful, hospital, spacious. It was really great! It is 30 min away from Marrakesh, so you’d better have a car
• Mohammed (9/5): Relax, enjoy fresh air, generous culture and history. - This is not your Normal hotel experience. This is an experience of living in your cousin Farm house. Very Comfy, quiet and relaxing. Souhail and his team made the experience some thing in different level. Best food I had since I arrived in Morocco 4 days ago. Very generic portions, and they care. The location is remote from all the city noise and pollution, but near nature and historic locations and activities. Family with kids may enjoy the area as there is an attached farm to the Riad. (It is a relax and read and disconnect time, Plus it may be a good location to explore the area. Over all I loved the experience and the hospitality. You have to arrive with the correct expectation, they did not advertise for the Riad in a fare way for the experience. I wish they had a bigger farm animals collection it will make it ore enjoyable for families.
• Patrick (7/5): Enjoyable experience, but slightly tarnished by misunderstanding over excursion charge - Friendly personal service. Lovely touch to serve tea after dinner by cozy fireplace. Comfortable rooms and surroundings, although certain facilities are basic, e.g. pool. The place does not have the facilities of a 4/5 star hotel, e.g. no TV in room, but in a way this is part of the charm/appeal. The pricing of the excursions was misleading. The brochure of excursions suggested different prices per person, depending on number of persons in the booking (e.g. according to brochure price per person for 4 person booking should be lower than price per person for 2 person booking). But for our 4 person booking, we ended up being charged at higher rate for 2 persons, lower rate only for the other 2 persons.
• Natalie (10/5): A truly magical and unique place - This was an absolutely exceptional hotel, from the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were treated as honoured guests. We arrived at 10pm and were greeted with mint tea and biscuits, and dinner served at a time to suit us despite how late it was. The staff and the owner could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The owner greeted us every day at breakfast and then again at dinner. They honestly made us feel so incredibly welcome. We ate dinner here every evening. The food was wonderful , an authentic 3 courses of Moroccan specialities with lovely extra touches such as fresh verbena tea at the end of every meal. All meals were served outside in the beautiful courtyard garden. A truly magical experience . The riad itself is absolutely stunning, and incredibly spacious with only 6 guest rooms so it would never feel crowded. Our room was beautiful with lovely touches such as fresh roses and fruit. The pool was great - absolutely needed after a long hot day in Marrakech! The location was just right for us - I wanted somewhere outside of the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, but close enough to visit daily, and that’s exactly what this riad offers. Taxis into Marrakech and back were quite expensive (40 euros) so just factor this into your budget. I have stayed at many beautiful 5 star boutique hotels, and this one is honestly able to compete with any of them. A truly magical place. We cannot thank the owner and his staff enough. Merci, merci, merci!! Nothing! We cannot fault this hotel .
• Marita (7/5): Too expensive - The room and pool are great!! Nice garden! It is a Nice spot, but it’s Neglected. The shower was broken, The outdoor furniture was broken, chair were dirty. Only 1 person as staff who you need to search for. No bar, no restaurant …
• Sebastien (8/5): Excellent stay, in line with expectations. - Food was excellent and plenty, staff very friendly. The suite is very spacious as well as the bathrooms. Breakfast very nice as well as the gardens which has some small turtles which our kids adored. The pillows on the beds were not great/consistent, this can be improved. Futhermore nothing at all.
• Jonathan (10/5): Couldn’t fault it -
• B.j. (1/5): Really bad experience. Booked for two days but left early morning after our first night. All the other reviews do not ma - It had a nice garden but it was a bit neglected. Location was hard to find. It felt like a walled prison with a nice garden. Staff was awkward. Food was burned and rushed.
• Kathryn (10/5): A very special place - Such a beautiful Riad with lovely rooms and gardens. Incredibly helpful and attentive staff. The manager helped us to book activities and taxis. We ate all of our meals here and they were excellent! There isn’t much around the hotel, but we were able to book activities and transport to wherever we wanted to go so we kept busy.
• Caroline (10/5): Perfect, relaxing, gastronomic and delightful. - This is a stunning property set in a very peaceful location. Souhail was the perfect host and looked after us completely. Nothing was too much trouble, we could eat when it suited us and the food was exceptional. I really enjoyed swimming in the pool. Nothing could have prepared us for the luxury of this Riad. It was stunning.
• Dominic (10/5): Exceptional - Hospitality and space
• Anonymous (10/5): perfect Place in Marrakesh - eine Oase in der Wüste :)
• Ruben (10/5): short but sweet - e stayed just a single night before flying off the next morning. We arrive quite late in the evening and regardless are greeted by a group of men who await us with pot of delicious tee right in the Riads stunning garden area. After unpacking, one of the owners, Ahmed Soughani shows us around the property and invites us for a glass of wine. He tells us the family tail of the property and we are simply blown away. You literally feel like a an ancient Berber tribe leader being invited to an important political debate on the estate in 1890. The next morning we wake up fairly early. It is still dark. Breakfast is already served in the stunning dining area with fresh juice and fragrantly fresh bread variations, served with Argan oil, home made jams and more - the staff is already up, chatting to me in fluent German (my mother tongue) as well as in French, helping me to get back into it again. Shortly after, we are being assisted back to the front gate where a taxi is already awaiting us. Short but sweet! What a place- must visit when in the area!
• Frederick (10/5): - Lovely, tranquil environment with friendly service
• james (10/5): Fantastic riad with a personal touch - Our stay at Riad Sougtani was fantastic and I recommend a stay here for everyone. It is a gorgeous property with beautiful gardens and a wonderful pool. Our stay was made really special and memorable due to all the warm and lovely people who work at the riad, who would go above and beyond to make sure all of our wants and desires were met. The breakfast was so delicious, sitting in the lovely garden, and dinner was so special with candles lit, fountain gurgling, sitting under the Morroccan sky. Highly recommended, we will definitely stay again!
