    We stayed for five nights in this wonderful Riad, situation in the Old Medina.From being met at the airport, and escorted then to the Riad by Abdo the assistant Manager, we cannot express how exceptional the staff, service, eye to detail and genuine desire to make our stay memorable was. We booked a Superior Suite, with a seating area, very comfortable bed, and extremely quiet, after the manic traffic and noise in the Souks. Breakfast was include, with a daily selection of home made pastries and fruit all served in the Riads Court Yard or on the roof terrace. Abdo, arranged a private tour for us to the Atlas Mountains, a full day with amazing guides, and local driver.Not to be missed. A truly great stay, and we can't wait to return. Thank You to all the staff, amazing service.

    Hidden gem behind door set in pink rendered wall. The outside gave no hint of the cool marble interior surrounding 2 courtyard gardens and plunge pool or the scent of fragrant oil. Amazing breakfast of local fresh produce. Helpfulness of host. Cleanliness and gorgeous bathroom products. Room of excellent standard yet in keeping with tradition.

    Our room was spacious but it wasn't massive given that it was described as a suite but I could tell this in advance from the photos and so wasn't surprised. It did have windows on both sides and was nice and cool.

    A great breakfast that varied each day. Plenty of food including fresh fruit, breads, yoghurt and either eggs or pastries or something else.

    My only complaint is that noise travels easily in the space. But in four evenings, I was only bothered once.

    It was a beautiful oasis. There were several areas to rest and relax, including the comfortable rooftop. The decor was minimalistic and classic, and the rooms (we had two) were both spacious and clean. Perfect to come back to after long days in the souks and on excursions. The dinners were wonderful. The meals were artistically served, and comparable to a three star restaurant. The service was friendly. They helped us book an excursion to Atlas within half an hour when our previously booked excursion was a no-show. They laundered and ironed our clothing, provided tea whenever we needed it, and provided detailed instructions to navigate the maze that is Marrakesh.

    No complaints at all. However it is at the edge of the medina, so you have to walk a good 20 mins to Jemaa al Fnaa so if you have mobility issues just to be aware.

    A lovely riad which offered the perfect base for Marrakech. The room was great (upstairs is better than downstairs level) & there is a charming roof terrace where breakfast can be served. The food was excellent & different each day & Driss & staff couldn't have done more. Lovely toiletries & fresh towels each day. A nice gift left for a birthday. A trip to desert & camel riding was great fun €70 pp Inc dinner +show good value.

    For women of colour or female solo travellers the location is not ideal as the local men constantly harassed us (4 young women) each day. But for men you won’t have a problem.

    Staff are beyond lovely and hospitable. Amazing service throughout our stay lovely breakfast and the aesthetic is so beautiful throughout the riad.

    There was nothing that we did not enjoy about our stay.

    The staff was the shining star of the stay. It felt like we were part of the family while staying here. All of our needs were met and we never felt uncomfortable. The breakfast was outstanding. Each morning, there was something a little different. My sister and I are both vegan and the staff went above and beyond to make food that we could eat for breakfast.

    Abdo, Dris and the rest of the staff could not do enough to make sure that our stay was the best it could be. Delicious food, excellent service and all in such a beautiful location. It was everything we could have wished for and more. If you get the chance to stay here, take it. We cannot recommend this place highly enough.

    The area around the Riad is a bit dark and confusing at night especially however the lovely staff offered to walk us places. It’s easy to get everywhere so I would not hold this against the Riad. Otherwise absolutely nothing to complain about!

    The staff were so lovely and helpful. It’s easy to get to and from anything you need and the staff were willing to walk us places. Breakfast every morning was varied traditional Moroccan which we really enjoyed. Room was great and was cleaned every day.

    Riad Sapphire is a delightful place, a peaceful oasis in the heart of Medina.

    The Riad is hard to find on your own, but you soon remember the way. It's best to book the transfer from the airport via the Riad. Their driver will drop you off at a parking area a few minutes walk from the Riad, but a member of staff will meet you and guide you to the Riad. On arrival, you are welcomed with a mint tea in the courtyard.

    The staff at Riad Sapphire are charming and friendly. They arranged excursions for us into the Atlas Mountains and to a country club, and advised on interesting places to visit in Marrakech. They couldn't have been more helpful. A delicious breakfast is served in the cool courtyard, and an excellent dinner on the roof (although you need to pre-order it). I used the hammam at the Riad which was a very good experience.

    The Riad was beautiful, clean and tidy. We stayed in a Junior Suite and there was more than enough room for us both. It felt very safe and comfortable. The rooftop was also very well kept. We also had massages and dinner in the Riad, both which were great and reasonably priced. Nothing is too much for the brilliant staff at this Riad. Honestly I cannot recommend them enough!
