Lock in a great price for Hotel & Spa Riad El Walaa – rated 9.1 by recent guests!

to get started.

Breakfast was delicious, and the Moroccan tea was absolutely amazing. The location of the Riad was very close to the fresh market/town square. Everything was within walking distance. The Staff were very accommodating, helpful with excursions, on site transportation, and local activities. I’d definitely recommend this Riad!

Staff couldn't do enough for us, the riad is beautiful and looks just like the photos, the rooms are gorgeous and they'd lit lots of candles/ scattered rose petals when we first arrived which made us feel really special. The breakfast is great, the roof terrace is to die for and the location is perfect, right in the centre of the medina but still such a quiet space away from all the madness. Honestly can't rate the place highly enough, would plan my next trip around being able to stay here again!

I felt like had an authentic experience staying here. I didn’t need to stay at a luxury hotel at all. The property was great, the staff was very accommodating. We needed a converter for our phones and the front desk went and purchased them for us. The location was great not far from the square and the riad was easy to find compared to the other roads in the Medina.

The breakfast was wonderful, as was the burgers and dinner we had there. The staff was very pleasant and very helpful! The location was great and close to plenty of shopping and restaurants. We had to spend a few extra hours after we had checked out and they accommodated us wonderfully and let us shower and relax until it was time to catch our plane in the evening.

It is located inside the Médina, it’s very easy to find but the staff was very nice to came pick us up at entrance. They serviced us mint tea at check in. It is a very pretty Riad with nice set up and awesome rooftop. Highly recommended

Despite requesting an upstairs room for 2/4 of the nights we stayed, we were in a downstairs room which was full of mould and smelled strongly of damp. It was the room facing the internal pool which is likely why, but I hope the riad can fix the issue asap. The room upstairs was still facing the pool but didn't have the same issue.
Our stay was good. The room was spacious and the beds were really comfortable. The breakfast was really good - not a buffet one but still really plentiful. Absolutely loved the cheese omelettes. Most importantly, the staff was absolutely star. Super kind, helpful and gave us really good recommendations. The position is really close to the big square but still far from the heart of the old town so it's actually very quiet and silent. We had some snacks while there which were lovely. We made use of the SPA for a massage which was really good and relaxing. Thank you for making our stay really lovely!

The Riad is beautiful! Our airport shuttle was waiting for us even though our flight was delayed! We had a great stay and Imad (I think that was the name of the gentleman who checked us in) even let my mistake of booking hammam's be cancelled free of charge in such short notice. I would recommend anyone this Riad - it's also in an excellent location and can be found easily.

Room was very clean and a comfy bed Very helpful staff - organised transfers to/from airport and a guide for us which was really great way to spend 4 hours and get some local knowledge.

Courtesy of the staff is overwhelming! No matter what question you come with, they always provide you with good tips/recommendations. The riad is beautiful and very close to Place el Fna (heart of Marrakech). Chance to book Excursions, dinners and guided tours (at a reasonable price) it is not always guaranteed in Marrakech. Special mention to the breakfast (at no additional charge): the Moroccan morning lights and the breeze on the Riad’s terrasse are priceless. A visit is worth even though you will not spend the night here. ABSOLUTELY RECOMMENDED. Chokrane to the Riad’s crew
