As an experienced traveler, I thought I would manage to reach the riad on my own based on the map coordinates. Don't make that mistake... those back alleys are a maze of dead-ends and not on any map! I recommend having the staff meet you at the neighborhood mosque to show you the route for the first time.

Even though it was located in the heart of the Medina, it was in a back alley which was completely silent. Just a few minutes walk from the Secret Garden, the Ibn Youssef Madrasa, and the Jema el Fnaa Square. The people running the establishment are really friendly and put me at ease completely. They are flexible regarding breakfast arrangements, offer suggestions for how to manage sightseeing, are available quite late into the night to help on anything, but also give their guests space to just hang out and enjoy the courtyard. The room was very comfortable, the bathroom fully equipped (even a hairdryer) and I really enjoyed my stay.

There is so much to write here. Firstly, the host Bader is so kind and helps at any time. The riad is beautiful and has - since it was the place of Hans Werner Geerdts - still a lot of art. The furniture is really nice! The breakfast is fantastic (especially with local oil and yogurt, coffee from a portafilter machine). Everything clean and hygienic.

Dar Daoud is everything you want in a riad! In a city like marrakech where almost everything is overwhelming to the senses, Dar Daoud is a safe haven. Bader is a spectacular host, and will go over and beyond to make sure you’re having a pleasant stay. I had trouble navigating the old médina and he was kind enough to come fetch me where I was; the ladies doing housekeeping are just as adorable. Go to dar Daoud for royalty service and peace of mind.

The property was ideally located in the heart of the Medina, very close to the main square in Marrakesh. Rooms were extremely clean and had everything you could ask for. Our host was brilliant, incredibly helpful. Breakfast was ideal, set you up for the whole day. Our host organised transport to and from the airport, which was very so handy, and provided numerous tips for a great break. The Dar was “your second home”, the perfect location for a break in Marrakesh. I would 100% stay there again.

Incredibly gorgeous riad, very stylish rooms (looks even way better than on booking.com), with extremely comfortable beds! Bader is such a nice host that you will feel welcomed from the very first moment. He even made us breakfast for takeaway in the middle of the night since we were leaving early. Value for money is off the charts, incredible price for what you get, could easily charge more!

Nothing bothered us personally. Although riad is a little bit tricky to find for the first time. But that shouldn’t stop you - it’s all part of the charm and experience. I would definitely recommend staying here!😊

Everything! Upon arrival we received a warm welcome with mint tea from the nicest host. Room was small, but clean. Breakfast was delicious.

Since the breakfast is in the hall (usual to this building type) you will wake up with the first guests having breakfast- that's the deal in riads.

Bader is a great host, very supportive and positive! Location is very central and the place is in rather good shape. Just keep in mind you have to get their first through the small alleys.

The Riad is nicely renovated and cozy with a Terasse on top. Bader is a very welcoming and caring host and gave us great advice about Marrakech. The breakfast ist tasty and plentiful. We had a great stay and would highly recommend it!

It's rather hard to get to the location at first, the alleys are hidden. Please take the offer from the owner on getting the taxi he reccomends with a person that takes you straight to the riad. This was not the mistake of the owner and he made sure we met and got to the property safely.

The host was extremly friendly and made sure we felt at home. Great breakfast, clean and tidy. The riad itself is very beautiful and organised. It's great if you want to be in the heart of the old city just a few minutes away fromt he main square!

no isolation so we hear everything that’s going on inside the accommodation (no noise from outside though)

fantastic place if you like the relaxing type, no TV, no buzz, while in the middle of the zouk (most central location)

Ben who was the manager of the Riad was extremely helpful.

Perhaps it was a little hard to find the place, since google maps does give a detailed medina streets. However, it is recommended to download maps on Maps.me to navigate. Bathroom is located on a separate floor. It might me important for some guests.

I had a wonderful stay at Dar Daoud. The host, Mr. Bader, was very welcoming, polite and friendly. The location is exceptional, in the heart of medina, but hidden in the backstreet from the crowds and noise. The breakfast was very good, and serving was exceptional. The building itself has a historical value. The overall value is great and I really recommend to stay at Dar Daoud if you want to explore medina of Marrakech.

nothing it was perfect

The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, couldn’t ask for a better location would love to return again some day!

Nothing was missing.

This is a truly magical place. The host/ manager (his name is Bader) is exceptionally kind and generous. He took wonderful care of me and any other guest. The location is superb. You can walk anywhere and be in the middle of all the happenings. The Riad itself is beautiful, quiet and clean. The breakfast is plenty and gives you a great start into the day. I will come back because of the unprecedented hospitality.

There was a bad smell probably from an old carpet, which should be renewed and little smell form the bathroom's drains. The single bed is for smaller children with a short wooden frame. We put the mattrass on the floor but could not remove it to the bed, because it expanded irregularly on all sides after spending two nights on it. I apologize for that, deeply sorry.

Quiet small riad in the middle of everything with lovely decorated rooms (we had the upper one with a double and a single bed that is also the brightest). Delicious breakfast possible to take after 10 in the morning and a bothering kind manager Bader who said "Our motto is that each guest should feel at home", so we felt very welcomed and used the roof terasse a lot. Very good privacy. German style warm blankets with sheets and room was cleaned. If you need any tip or advice, Bader will help you.

Wifi was breaking sometimes, is good for e-mails but video calls sometimes did not work. Single room has a bathroom outside of the room (downstairs), it has specific smell (I guess it's normal in this type of historical, old buildings)

Riad is beautiful, clean, quiet and in perfect location. Hosts were just amazing, very friendly & helpful. Breakfast was delicious and beutifully served, it was typical moroccan breakfast.

Cozy place in the mid of medina. Quick walk to the square. Really good breakfast, nice rooftop terrace to hang out and get out from the busy souks. Bader is a great host and gives you great tips for the city.

Bader is the best host you can wish for! He picked us up at the main square to walk us to the hotel, helped us with a sim card and shared great recommendations. The dar is small and beautiful, very clean and offers great breakfast. We had a perfect stay and would highly recommend!

I got lost a couple of times trying to find the way back to the place .

Almost everything , quite and comfortable 😌

Didn't realise your personal bathroom was not in your room but down stairs.

Dar Daoud had a fabulous relaxing, friendly, homely and caring vibe and located in the centre of the fabulous Medina. The host, Badar couldn’t do more to help make your visit a better experience, he was above and beyond in his caring, patience and helpfulness. Thank you Badar for making our mini visit a wonderful stay.
