    Everything was perfect. If I HAD to pick something it would be the pillows. I would personally prefer smaller ones as my neck was sore the first night.

    Everything in the Riad was fabulous! The treatment from the personnel was outstanding… from offering to arrange reservations, to arranging our lifts to the airport… everything!!

    Nothing, it was more than perfect.

    The property was immaculate, meticulously decorated and the staff was incredible. They are all very kind, and put so much care and effort into absolutely every detail. The location was great and pretty easy to find from the main road. Mr Mohamed showed us his private art collection it was such a treasure. We will be back one day, inshallah

    Beautiful, traditional Riad in a great location
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Royal Suite
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Getting in and out of the shower was tricky, people with mobility issues might struggle. Shower gels, shampoo etc could do with an update, too small and difficult to get into. Also towels and robes a bit tired and slippers would be good for the tiled floor (it was unseasonably cold when we went). TV is very limited channel wise and very old, this is a minor point given you’re in Marrakesh! Yoga mats would be ideal to use on the rooftop. All minor points, just our thoughts on what could be improved.

    Location was excellent. Very friendly and helpful staff. Hamman and massage were great and set by the pool courtyard, with an option for a sauna too. Food was excellent, small list of traditional dishes and done beautifully. Our room (if you can call it that!) was the Royal suite and huge, a separate living room and dressing areas. Beautiful Riad, rooftop was gorgeous in the sunshine and a lovely place to have your breakfast. Live music was great. A beautiful place to retire too after a day in the medina. Lots of places to sit and drink the delicious mint tea. Thank you!

    The breakfast was pre selected and served. There was too much food for us and alot of bread pancakes and cake. Some fruit salad would have been nice

    Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly.very good location. The terrace is a lovely space to spend time after a busy day sightseeing . Breakfast can be taken anywhere in the hotel. A lovely basket of fresh fruit on arrival

    Nothing

    Beautifully presented riad with a real charm to it. The decoration and craftsmanship was unbelievable. The service was 5 star throughout & nothing was too much trouble. It is located just off a busy market street near one of the Medina’s main gates, which could be a bit overwhelming for some, but it really felt like you were in the heart of Marrakesh and the riad was a peaceful contrast. Also, it is pretty much exactly in-between the majorelle garden and the city centre/souks (15 min walk to both) which we found super useful. Would definitely recommend staying here but would suggest requesting a room on the upper floor as those rooms feel more cosy and private.

    It was the most beautiful hotel you could imagine with a friendly and courteous staff. It was walking into a dream. We had the Royal Suite which was beyond compare. Mohammed, the owner, was gracious and helpful. The entire family loved it.

    Overall this stay was fantastic, if we ever came back to Marrakesh we would stay here again. Firstly the staff are so friendly and they can’t do enough for you. From the moment we arrived we were so well looked after and the service is 10/10. The location is fantastic on the edge of the medina, however it’s quiet and walking distance from most things. The hotel is spotless, the rooms are beautiful and the overall decor and facilities were beautiful. There is nothing we would change about the stay it was fantastic!

    The surrounding area. It’s in the heart of the medina so the surrounding area is expected but I would have preferred a quieter area. However the riad itself was very nice. Just be careful when walking around on the roads etc

    The staff were very helpful and nice. Answered all our questions quickly and were on hand 24/7, couldn’t fault their service at all from start to the end. The riad was near one of the entrances to the old city. Location was perfect if you want to be near the medina but if you prefer a more quiet scenery I would suggest the new city which is about 20 mins walk away from the medina. However, this riad was perfect and would definitely stay here again

    Almost everything was perfect during our stay at Riad Kniza. The only points were that the fireplace in our room was not in use due to a technical issue. We stayed in Marrakesh in December and would have loved to use the fireplace which was a room feature we were looking forwards to prior to our stay. The TV was also not working in our room.

    Riad Kniza was exceptional. The architecture of the building is very impressive, along with the decoration. The view from the terrace is breathtaking and we enjoyed a few meals up there. The staff were lovely and very welcoming. They were very attentive to our needs and made sure we had the best possible experience. We booked a few excursions through the hotel and these were high quality and very enjoyable. The breakfast was outstanding and it was very special to try local produce every morning. We also had dinner at the hotel a few times and the food was also really nice. We were also given the opportunity to visit the owner’s museum attached to the Riad, which was fantastic. The owner of the Riad is a lovely man with an extensive knowledge of Moroccan culture. It was extremely interesting and very special.
