Cute inside. I could enjoy having a Moroccan riad stay. Not too difficult to find this riad. Staff are nice.

Yuko

The staff was extremely helpful and nice! Definitely the Riad met our expectations and exceeded them. Lovely breakfast where you choose where to have it, we always picked the swimming pool. Very quiet and nice! An oasis within busy Marrakech for sure. Great building, traditional and everything made you feel like home. We recommend it for sure!

The Riad is nice, flowers is blooming in whole place also they split with three building which have three different vibes. Rooftop is amazing beautiful, you can enjoy sunset there. Staff were willing to give us helps anytime. Room is arty, clean and well designed, since we stay in first floor which can see the yard when opening the door. Location is decent, no around old town square and a bit hissing which took some walks and energy to find. However the area is cleaner and you’re able to find secret garden and few fancy Spa around.

Sara

Everything about our stay was great. The staff is very welcoming and helpful. The rooms are clean and the rooftop, pool and common areas are very calm to hang out at. Great and somewhat simple breakfast (bread, pancakes, eggs, tea/coffee, juice). All we needed. Location is amazing and for most places, we wanted to go to we were there in 5-10 minute by foot (as good as it possibly gets).

This riad was absolutely perfect- the staff were so kind and attentive from the moment you got into the door. I was greeted with tea and biscuits, and it just got better from there. One day, I had to get to a certain bus stop for an experience I had booked. Not only did they walk me to the bus stop, one of the staff actually got with me on the bus and made sure I got off where I was supposed to. Now that’s hospitality! I never felt unsafe at this riad. It’s an oasis, and I would absolutely stay again.

Company info

My name is Abdellatif Ait Benabdallah, I am the owner of Dar Baraka Karam and I am a Marrakech Medina lover. I’ve always had a real admiration for the traditional Moroccan architecture, and I decided to turn this passion into a job. I felt that I had the fine mission to save the Moroccan heritage and I succeeded in restoring more than 200 riads all around the Medina. I kept some of them for myself and I turned them into guesthouses, restaurants and literary cafés. I love the fact of walking around the streets of the Medina and the interaction with the different kinds of people has always been my strength.

Property info

The Dar Baraka Karam has the particularity of being an18th century riad, it has been restored in the pure Moroccan tradition. It is located at a 10 minutes walk from the famous Jamaa El Fna Square. The Dar Baraka is authentic, confortable and elegant.

Neighborhood info

Dar Baraka Karam is located in the old Medina of Marrakech. The neighborhood, where we can find several little interesting craft, decoration and clothing shops, has an easy access. It is also a neighborhood where we can find different little restaurants for quick lunches, and even some fancy other ones for nice evening dinners. It is the perfect neighborhood to discover and interact with the real life of the people of Marrakech

Everything was great!
Great stuff, the hotel manager was so nice and helped us in any way he could. The location was perfect, really quiet, away from all the craziness. You actually have access to 3 Riads, each one with its own character which makes it look more spacious. The shower/bath was amazing, the rooftop terrace and the plunge too. Restaurant recommendations were wonderful. We had a great stay! Thank you!

I did not like the breakfast here, it is not worth the 9€, you can get a lot better in the shops outside and far more cheaper. The staff did not tell us about it how to access the different patios only when we asked. Also the pictures have the staturation increased which make a difference with reality.
The riad has a very nice roof terrace where you can sit. Also they have 3 differents beautiful patios. The room was clean and the staff are friendly.

“Fair stay but there's much better around.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 2 nights
We have booked three different rooms and this feedback is from all occupants: - One of the rooms had a constant leaking toilet that the host promised to be fixed but nothing happened at our stay. - Complimentary tea/ coffee station (including kettle) would have been good to have in each room. - There was no standing mirror in the rooms. - Please make sure you make it clear about the price in Moroccan Dirhams rather than in Euros or Pounds if you ever book a transport service via the hotel. The rate according to hosts are ever changing and therefore the expected rate has changed upon arrivals.
We have received a warm welcome and have been shown around. Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful charming place. Excellent location , close to everything you need. The rooms were initially cold but we have been provided with extra blankets and sufficient heating.

Nothing! It was all fantastic.
Firstly, the staff were extremely friendly and very helpful. They were very welcoming which was very nice as a solo traveller from far away, visiting Morocco for the first time. Staff were happy to socialise which was great company, and gave some very helpful advice and recommendations for my stay in Marrakech. The Riad itself is beautiful, so cozy and comforting and the rooms are very pretty. All the facilities fulfilled expectations and the fantastic breakfast is an incredible way to start the day on the amazing roof top terrace.

The room was very cold and air con for heating did not function when we arrived in the late evening, on the second day we suddenly received a third bed in the room?, cleanness was not so good, lots of hair everywhere, thus for this quality for 200 euros per night way too expesinve
Very very nice personell, Riad house special and beautiful, in summer it must be heaven as it is chilly in there, location is special in the Medina but not to much into it, easy to find again
