Delicious Dining Experience

Every meal I had was a delight, particularly the lamb tagine with vegetables which was simply exquisite. The quality of the food was excellent, ensuring every taste was rich and fulfilling. I adored enjoying breakfast on the rooftop terrace while soaking in the sun's warmth in the morning. It truly made each day start with a perfect touch.

I had a wonderful experience staying at this charming riad. The rooms are not only beautiful but also have a unique private courtyard where I could unwind with a book. While the friendly staff made our stay pleasant, the location felt a bit daunting at times, especially when navigating the back alleys. The dining options were okay, but I expected a bit more variety for breakfast. Overall, it's a great spot for those seeking a traditional experience, but be cautious about the surrounding area.

My experience at this Riad was quite mixed. On one hand, the location deep in the Medina provided an authentic Moroccan experience, but on the other, I found the lack of proper service to be quite frustrating. The room was spacious and beautiful, but there were several maintenance issues and a real oversight in attention to guests' needs. Overall, while the ambiance was lovely, the poor management and service marred what could have been a fantastic stay.

Staying at this Riad was truly a mixed bag. On one hand, the ambiance is enchanting and offers a unique experience that feels authentic to Marrakech. The staff members were exceptionally helpful and accommodating, ensuring that we felt welcomed throughout our stay. However, the dining options were quite limited, and the approach to the Riad can be intimidating for first-time visitors. Overall, it's a charming spot, but improvements in certain areas would enhance the experience.

The Riad is a beautiful and traditional spot in the heart of the Medina, offering a peaceful retreat amidst the bustling streets of Marrakech. The rooms are charming, but some aspects of the experience were not ideal, particularly the dining options and certain service interactions. Overall, it boasts a great atmosphere but could improve on breakfast and the approach to guest comfort.

Rooms

We stayed in the Bali room, which was spacious, beautifully decorated, and very clean. The unique design really gave us that traditional Riad experience.

Service

7.0

While the staff was generally friendly and eager to help, the owner was quite insistent on upselling spa services, which made us feel a bit uncomfortable at times.

Location

8.0

Situated in the Medina, it's perfectly located to explore the local culture while being tucked away from the craziness of the main square. However, finding the Riad can be a challenge for first-time visitors.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was quite basic, with mostly pastries and fruits; it could definitely use some variety as well as earlier service for those catching early flights.

Facilities

6.0

The rooftop terrace was a lovely place to relax and enjoy tea, but the spa services felt overpriced for what they offered.
