Lock in a great price for Riad Matham – rated 9.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

The room was super cozy, and the courtyard was beautiful with a perfect pool to dip your feet into. The staff was very helpful and very caring. And my daughter loved the two turtles, Couscous and Tajine. This is a great place for couples, families, and those looking to be in the medina, but in a more authentic neighborhood.

Fabulous hospitality was extended to us from Thierry, from the maps and advice he sent us before we arrived to the warmth of welcome we received on arrival. The room was exquisite....beautiful furnishings! Breakfast was a delicious feast while sat on drums and our evening meal by the soothing plunge pool was delicious in romantic settings. Could not rate our two nights here more highly. Looking forward to returning!!

Everything about the Riad Matham made that space a sanctuary of nurturing and rest and calm. There were not too many rooms, every guest was made to feel special and all requests were attended to very well. The head waiter Hirsham was exceptional , nothing was a bother, everything was attended to quickly and his efforts to make the experience special were amazing such as arranging rose petals on your dinner table carefully and without pretence. Breakfasts on the roof were fun and food plentiful.

Moira, Australia

Terry was very accommodating and offered good advice and went above and beyond to help us. It's an absolutely beautiful Riad with the best rooftop view In Marrakech! Very chill vibe with great staff.

Kylie, Canada

This Hotel is wonderful, very clean. It's located close to the Medina, but is very peaceful and quite. In that way you can enjoy coming back to an Oasis from your trip to the streets. The Staff was always available and super kind. They explain us how to get around the city and plan our visit. They were also very helpful arranging a Tour to the desert, which was very organized and punctual (which is very rare in Morocco). We stay in two different rooms and the beds were really comfy and clean. We love it. Thanks so much for everything.

Yury, United States of America

This is a beautiful and peaceful Riad in a perfect Medina location just north of the main soukes. Our room was on the ground floor and spacious, cool and comfortable. The owner Thierry has excellent taste and the whole Riad is furnished like a magazine shoot. The team were helpful and polite, although they don't all speak English so it is useful if you have a bit of French. I would recommend you organise a pickup with Riad Matham as taxis can't get directly to the door so the Riad will organise somebody to meet you.

Thomas, United Kingdom

The staff were amazing! They were so welcoming from the minute we arrived, we had amazing tea at the Riad, the location was excellent and the breakfast was amazing.

Nathan, United Kingdom

the fresh fruits and yogurt for breakfast, the wide open courtyard and fresh air

Marthe, Canada

Riad Matham was such a lovely, tranquil place hidden in the hustle and bustle of the medina. The building has been tastefully restored and the roof top terrace was a perfect setting for the lovely breakfast they serve. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this riad.

Jonathan, United Kingdom

Get service and staff. We had dinner on two nights - wonderful food. Lovely breakfast on the roof terrace. Well maintained - look forward to a return visit.

An Inside Look at Riad Matham

An ancient building of the 16th century, it belonged to a wealthy Berber family. Riad Matham is ideally situated at the heart of the historical and cultural center of Kaat Ben Nahid in the medina. Its location is perfect: within 3minutes walk from the main museums (Museum of Marrakech, Medersa Ben Youssef, Photography Museum of Marrakech) and the colourful souks, within 8 minutes from Jema El Fna square, with a parking lot for taxis nearby. Surrounding the wide garden patio brightened up by palm trees, olive trees, bougainvilleas and its sweet scents of orange trees and jasmine, the building is composed of two rooms and four suites, a big living room with a fireplace and another living room that gives on to the ornamental and bathing pool. On the first floor, there is a wide passageway that can be used as a rest area and reading area and a hammam. Warm and friendly areas are available on the amazing terrace: 220 m2, it offers a 360° view of the medina. An ideal place to enjoy a romantic dinner or drinks with friends. The rooms combine sobriety, comfort and romanticism. They have kept their traditionnal charm (high-painted ceilings 4m50, “rtaj” doors, stucco plaster). Some of the

Riad Matham takes special requests – add in the next step!

눇The rooms are big and comfortable, The Riad is quiet and has really relaxing places to rest outside the room. Riad looked just as in the photos. We loved the decor which was chic and stylish. We had dinner the night of arrival, which was absolutely delicious. Thierry was an excellent host who was friendly, helpful and welcoming. He picked us up from the taxi when we arrived. The staff were super warm and polite. they prepare breakfast for us before leaving for an early desert tour. We would not have any hesitation to recommend Riad Matham to other guests.

눉The absolutely only complaint was that as a solo female traveller, I did not feel safe in the alleways and streets surrounding the riad, and certainly wouldn't enjoy walking them alone after dark.
눇I loved my room - spacious and tranquil (as was the rest of the riad), with a large shower lacking not in pressure or hot water issues, massive bonus! Location wise, it is very close to numerous attractions. The staff, decor and ambience offered a homely, peaceful escape from the bustle of local life just outside the door.

눇Great value for an excellent riad. We stayed in 4 riads across Morocco and this was by far our favourite. The staff at Matham are outstanding and were always willing to go above and beyond to make our stay more comfortable. The riad itself is beautiful, clean, and tastefully decorated to give a modern feel. Matham offers peaceful tranquility in contrast to the busy streets of the medina. Lovely roof terrace with nice views. Breakfast was great as well. Good location close to many tourist attractions and not far from the main square.
