    Someone else said this already but, no alcohol - my suggestion would be not to say you have a cocktail menu ahead of arrival, and be clear that it is a MOCKtail menu and no alcohol on site. I loved the breakfast but my partner didn’t as it was very sweet. Check-in took three hours from arrival (we arrived pre check-in time so kind of expected) - if we’d been told how long the wait would be, we would have made the most of our time elsewhere and not sat waiting. Some issues with shower in room, and no water at check in, but overall the room was beautiful, quiet with a comfy bed and great bath.

    Beautiful setting, fantastic staff and an enjoyable breakfast. We generally loved our stay and would recommend Thai place to others who want to stay somewhere quiet and personal.

    The Riad is situated in a quiet area. The welcome was very warm and I felt comfortable from the first minute. The team is exceptionally friendly, helpful and lovely. My room was beautiful, clean, well decorated with a large bathroom. I was lucky to experience the Gnawa night. A fun and entertaining evening with music, dance and typical food from Marocco. Breakfast is served on the terrace with stunning views over the Medina. The Riad truly is a small, cozy oasis and personally I can recommend it 100%. It cannot get any better than Ambre Epices Medina. I will be back for sure. Thanks so much for this wonderful experience.

    The room was on the cozy side, and unfortunately, the bath had a persistent water clogging issue, leading to water backing up after showers. Despite reporting it on the first day it still occurred everytime someone went for a shower. While the terrace was marketed as a unique selling point, it didn’t quite live up to expectations.

    I’d like to start by mentioning the exceptional staff and management at the Riad. Despite the location being a bit of a walk, it suited us perfectly. Opting for half board, we enjoyed dinner at the Riad every night, which was delightful. Moreover, they graciously accommodated customizations for the kids, which we truly appreciated.

    I found the room a bit expensive. It was nice but nothing wow. In terms of location, the Riad is well hidden. Luckily there is google map :)

    Staff is extremely kind. Mahmood welcomed me with his big smile and took care of everything. Breakfast was good.

    Two Riad joined together, one more traditional than the other. We stayed in the ‘newer’ more modern side with a stunning room full of Moroccan influence and modern minimalism. Big bed, large bath tub, open fire and large bathroom. Stunning. A small Hammam is superb as was the massage - both inexpensive. Dinner was superb and traditional. Breakfast was served on the roof and superb. Very close to Medina too. Highly recommended

    The path begins on a very busy corner, you enter a street that looks like the entrance to a market, in the middle of the street there is a detour to the labyrinth of hidden riads that leads to the delight of finding yourself in a quiet place with very beautiful decoration, To top off the stay at this Riad, all the staff are truly friendly and very courteous, you feel at home, the breakfast is perfect, each day has its variations, but always delicious and well served.

    Wow, what an amazing place this was. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and made our first time in Marrakesh a memorable one. The Riad is stunning, and feels very homely, the breakfast each morning was delicious and we throughly enjoyed it. The Riad is also in a very central location with most places of interest within walking distance. The staff want out of their way to ensure our time here was well spent. They were extremely helpful with planning all excursions, meaning there was nothing for us to worry about or plan, making them all stress free! I would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we look forward to coming back in the future.

    The water pressure was insane. You barely turned it on before water would shoot out at you and get everything wet. The shower especially was difficult to manage because there was no lip between the shower and the rest of the bathroom so the water got absolutely everywhere.

    The location was fabulous, the staff were so helpful and kind, and the room was beautiful. Also loved the breakfast we had on the rooftop terrace. We had a late flight the next day and they were very accommodating with allowing us to hang out around the Riad all day and helped set up a taxi to get us to the airport that evening.
