everything. 10 out of 10 for all the service we’ve had here.
TurkeyBreakfast was plentiful and varied everyday day with fresh juice and coffee
United Kingdomwe enjoyed everything in this little pretty RIad. The host Ibrahim could not do anymore for us and went above and beyond . I was reluctant to stay in a riad as I always stay in a hotel and this was my first time but it exceeded our expectations. We got a little lost on the first day but Ibrahim managed to allocate us and helped us with everything from start to finish.
United KingdomThe location was great, close to the main points of the medina with the feeling of being in the tranquility of home in the frenetic city of Marrakech. The room and the bathroom were very comfortable and spacious and they were always very clean. The staff were always very attentive and helpful, giving all the necessary explanations, tips on where to eat and helping with the transfer to the airport. The breakfast was very good and always varied, with fruit and traditional bread.
PortugalA wonderful stay! Lovely people who made us feel at home. It's in the small details! Fantastic clean room, delicious breakfast and great location. Would definitely recommend!

United Kingdomnice and quiet riad with pretty rooms and a great breakfast. Conveniently located in the Medina
ItalyLovely breakfast up on the terrace, cleaned wonderfully everyday, helpful and welcoming staff. (Take them up on the offer of airport transfer as it’s not easy to find if you haven’t been before!)
United KingdomSimo and his team are lovely hosts. Simo helped us with our travel plans, with the booking of bus tickets, and with deciding what to visit and where to eat in Marrakech. Breakfast was delicious, room very clean and spatious, and the rooftop view was great. Good place to stay in winter as the riad has heating!
NetherlandsOur stay at the Riad was perfect, the staff is amazing, specially Ibrahim, we really recommend this Riad to everybody travelling to Marrakesh.
