Great location. Nice, clean and authentic appartment. Fawzy is a kind and helpful guy, he took us to a new part of Marrakesh and Ourika Valley. He told us a lot about marrocan culture and history. We enjoyed the staying there a lot. We can only recomend.

A very nice appartment in the old town, recently renovated and decorated in the local traditional marocco style. I really liked the decoration and "vibrations" the house gives! Flat is fully equiped with the kitchen, bathroom and AC, etc.. Quiet street and the area during the night, but still close to the main attractions. Very nice view from the terrace, where we would relax every day and watched the sunset drinking tea. (Be aware of very steep stairs to the terrace!!.) . Good breakfast served in the "patio" by the owner of the house, who lives in the back part of the building accessible with its own separate entrance. If you have any questions, you can ask the owner, but normally he keeps away and gives enough privacy for his quests. I can only recommend the appartment.

Nice view from terrace. WiFi. Free tea and coffee, water, oranges and juice.

-Great location -Clean -Awesome terrace -The host is very friendly, helpful and speaks decent English. He took us to the Majorelle garden and to the airport.

Accueil charmant, hôte très sympathique et courtois.. Emplacement idéal pour se balader à jamaa lfna et environ... Parking à proximité.. Studio bien décoré, équipé et confortable... Je conseille vivement aux personnes qui veulent se détendre et faire du tourisme à Marrakech 😊

Petit dejeuner royal, servi avec délicatesse. Le propriétaire a tout fait pour rendre mon passage le plus agréable que possible. Il m'a également aidé à organiser mon départ. La maison se présente comme un petit musée d'une riche histoire familiale au coeur de la medina, mais très accessible.

Apartament w autentycznym marokańskim domu, w Medynie. Tradycyjny styl i wystrój. Prawdziwy klimat Marakeszu. Mieliśmy do wyłącznej dyspozycji dużo przestrzeni: pokój, klatkę schodową, kuchenkę, łazienkę oraz obszerny dwupoziomowy taras na dachu z dodatkowym bardzo klimatycznym pokoikiem. W apartamencie czekały na nas owoce, woda, herbaty. Okolica miła i bezpieczna, blisko pałacu Bahia - łatwo trafić i dojechać. Gospodarz bardzo życzliwy i uczynny, mieszka w drugiej części domu dzięki czemu zawsze może służyć radą lub pomocą - proponuje transfer lotniskowy w korzystnej cenie oraz indywidualne wycieczki.

Sin duda quien vaya a Marrakech debe pasar por este hermoso lugar. Excelente limpieza, un muy bueno anfitrión y los detalles hacen que sea uno De los mejores lugares de Marruecos. Fawcy Es una excelente persona.

Lokalizacja jest świetna. Śniadanie najlepsze jakie jedliśmy w Marrakeszu złożone z lokalnych produktów.

Es war einfach nur wunderschön. Wer 1001 Nacht in Marrakesch erleben will, ist hier genau richtig, der Gastgeber war einfach nur freundlich und hat uns sogar zum Busbahnhof gebracht. Es war die schönste Unterkunft die wir insgesamt hatten. Wir kommen definitiv wieder.

Fawzy
Al Markab means the boat in Arabic. It’s a traditional moroccan house designed in a riad style. Located in Riad Zitoune JEDID district which is the most appreciated part in marrakesh medina ( old authentic city) Founded by the vizir Ba Ahmad who has been the tutor of the sultan Moulay Abdelaziz who was twelve years old,and the builder of the Bahia palace as his personal residence. Al Markab is in the front part of the house, entirely private,with a private terrace, entrance,kitchen and restrooms.Tradionnally designed,beautifully decorated,very well equipped and very comfortable. Largely spacious for four persons and convened for couples,families, and friends. The private terrace is a must to enjoy sunrise and sunset with an open captivating view of the Medina around and the snow covered Atlas mountains in the back.
