    That I couldn't take the cute kitten Bestie home with me!

    Everything was perfect. Staff are lovely, very kind and look after you really well. Food is exceptional if you have dinner there try the lamb and apricot it's amazing. Only 6 rooms and you are encouraged to treat it as home not hotel. Maybe slightly more expensive than other riads but worth it.

    Staying at Riad Emberiza Sehari was undoubtedly the best part of our trip to Marrakech. Nabil welcomed us into the beautiful courtyard and pool area upon our arrival and we immediately felt at ease and relaxed tucked away from the bustling streets outside. We sat down for refreshments and were given some invaluable tips, walking routes and food recommendations; Nabil’s the annotated map he gave us became our trusted guide for the trip and helped us navigate around the sometimes confusing and chaotic streets. Nothing was ever too much for the kindest team of staff we have ever stayed with, they were incredibly helpful and we were genuinely sad to say goodbye on our last day to such kind people. Youssef and Omar were always on hand to give insight and suggest excursions and rooftops; we really enjoyed all of their recommendations. Like the rest of the riad, the room was beautifully and tastefully decorated with both a modern traditional Moroccan feel. It was the perfect place to come back to after exploring sights in the city, offering a calm oasis which felt like home. A special mention to the sweet kittens Biscuit and Cookie who were never far away and were another highlight of our stay. The location was ideal, only a 15 minute walk from some great food spots and the Souks, longer if you want to head further down to the main square. We ate a freshly prepared breakfast each morning by the pool which was delicious, and also stayed for lunch before we left, which was the best traditional food we ate over the whole trip. We had a truly unforgettable stay and could not recommend this place enough - will definitely be returning in the not so far future!

    We don’t write reviews really, but we couldn’t not do so for Riad Embezeria Sehari: we had the best holiday in Marrakech, due, in no small part, to this great place and the people who run it. We arrived from the airport, through the organised (?) chaos of the streets of the Medina, to a nondescript door in a wall. Nabil came to greet us and through a short hallway, we were presented with a cool, calm riad courtyard, with a beautiful orange and lemon tree framed pool, soft music and a wonderful spa like fragrance permeating. Nabil welcomed us with mint tea and took our luggage, and after a time, presented us with (what became) an invaluable map and carefully explained the main sights and some dos and don’ts. Nabil was on hand throughout our time in Marrakech to answer any questions and offer advice, as was Youssef, who is a great source of knowledge on the history of Morocco. After our tea, we were shown to our room, with a huge bed, air conditioning and decorated thoughtfully with detail and precision: The interior design of the whole riad is exceptional and represents the best of both traditional and modern Moroccan aesthetics. We ate a meal prepared by Ilham who, throughout our trip, would make carefully prepared snacks to go with any drinks we ordered. He showed passion and care for his art. Breakfast each day around the pool and under the trees included coffee or mint tea and a combination of fresh fruit, date cake, yoghurt, jams, Atlas Mountain honey, bread and omelette or soufflé, all lovingly prepared by Omaima and served by Omar. It was a joy to come back here each day and throughout our time here, we were encouraged to treat the Riad as our home. Nothing was too much bother and all the staff showed true intent to make our holiday the very best it could be.

    The location is about a 15 minute walk to the main square and quite hard to find through the medina but Nabil gave us a map was on the phone if we got lost!

    What a gorgeous place! The whole place is beautiful we couldn’t have asked for more. The staff are friendly and welcoming and couldn’t do enough to help. The breakfast was lovely and we felt at home. Nabil helped us with everything during our stay with advice and local knowledge of Marrakesh. Would def recommend.

    We recently had the pleasure of staying at Riad Emberiza Sahari in Marrakech, and it was nothing short of fantastic. From the moment we arrived, the staff, particularly Nabil and Youssef, extended warm hospitality and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. However, it was Moad who truly made our trip unforgettable with his exceptional service and attention to detail. The riad's ambiance, coupled with the impeccable service, made for a memorable and delightful stay. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Marrakech.

    Low pressure shower. Unfortunately, it was cold & raining for the 2 days we were there, so we could not make the best of the little pool & rooftop terrace.

    Very nice calm courtyard in the middle of busy Marrakech. Delicious meals made to order with fresh local products. Great rooftop terrace. Very attentive staff.

    Our stay at Riad Emberiza Sahari was exceptional. The riad itself was beautiful. The courtyard and the room were both serene & clean - coming in from the busy streets of the medina felt like we were walking into a spa. The breakfast was tasty and always beautifully presented - was great to try some traditional Moroccan breakfast foods. The location is very good - about 25/30 mins walk to the main square and about 20-30 mins walk to main attractions. It was nice to walk as you could see more of the old town. The new town is about 15/20 min walk away too. Taxis were always available pretty much right outside the riad. Every member of staff was incredibly helpful and kind. Youssef, Nabil and his team did everything they could to make our trip as smooth and relaxing as possible. They would help us out with best walking routes, helped us plan excursions, and helped us communicate with locals etc. I would 100% recommend this riad to everyone!

    We had the most amazing stay at the Riad Emberiza Sahari. The team at the Riad were so helpful and accommodating. Nothing was too much. It felt like a home from home. A paradise within the chaos that was outside in the Medina. Breakfast was freshly prepared each morning and a delightful mix of traditional Moroccan food and a continental breakfast. Couldn't recommend the Riad Emberiza Sahari enough.

Every staff member was extremely attentive and always ready to fulfill our wishes. The rooms were not only beautifully designed but also impeccably clean and inviting.

We particularly enjoyed the courtyard with the enchanting pool – a perfect spot to relax. Breakfast was delicious and diverse, and the entire team went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable stay. The location of the riad is also ideal, close to major attractions yet tucked away from the city's hustle and bustle. Riad Emberiza Sahari is definitely our top choice for a charming, luxurious retreat in Marrakech. We can't wait to come back!
