Not a single thing.

This is a beautiful Riad in the Medina (Old Town). It is in a quiet lane away from most of the main attractions but easily walkable. Marrakech is very safe as well. The hosts Youssef and Barbara were very helpful with information prior to our visit and I would recommend booking a taxi through them to get to the Riad. The rooms are compact but more than enough room for a short stay with a great bathroom and shower. The room is cleaned every day with fresh towels. There is plenty of seating in each floor and a nice rooftop terrace. The biggest compliment is I couldn't fault anything.

Beautiful riad, lovely hosts and wonderful breakfast in the morning (best we had in Morocco)

Stayed in February 2025

Just to be aware the property is in a residential area which is a little more conservative,was about 5 minute walk to an ATM and about 15 minute walk to the main square which was fine for me. Might be better to get a taxi back if you are staying out at night rather than walking.

The property is stunning and immaculate,the owners here are really lovely and friendly,they also have a really cute sleepy puppy. The room was really comfortable and everything is so clean beautiful. Breakfast was served on the terrace which was lovley,the coffee was so nice. The owners are really helpfull too and were happy for me to keep my luggage there after I checked out and helped arrange a taxi to the airport for me.

Would 100% recommend. Host Youseff was amazing, welcoming and helping us with everything. From serving beautiful breakfasts on the roof terrace, to ordering us cabs when we needed it most - always with a smile! Great typical riad in the heart of Marrakesh on a calm back alley. Easy and walkable everywhere in the city.

Great Riad. Clean, nice and pleasant. Josef and Barbara are very nice and helpful people. I recommend the Riad and will definitely return to it on my next visit to Marrakech. Thank you.

Nothing. It was wonderful from start to finish.

Everything! It's quite simply, Incredible. Youssef was like a brother to me, someone who helped me from the moment I arrived. Both Barbara and Yousseff worked so hard to make sure that every little detail was taken care of so that I could simply enjoy the delights of the Riad and Marrakech. Also, the breakfast - Wow!!! Thanks so much Barbara and Yousseff for making my trip to Marrakech and your amazing Riad an experience that I will remember forever. You are amazing people and I feel very lucky and humbled to have met you both. I can't wait to return with my wife. All the best, The Marrakech Marathon Olympian

There's nothing not to like..

What an amazing place! So beautifully decorated. Extremely clean and comfortable. Down a quiet alley in a local neighborhood. In the Medina and walkable to the heart of the city and shops. Youssef, Barbara and the staff are very attentive. The place is an oasis. 🙂🙂🙂

Yousef was a marvellous host. He couldn’t have done more to make our stay comfortable.

Quite noisy top floor rooms. Early morning insistent cockerel. Stray cats annoying and smelly on roof.

Atmosphere, friendly, location. Extra breakfast fruit on Xmas day.

Neighbourhood is slightly questionable, but location itself is good

The riad is very cute and small

My stay at Dar Barbi was absolutely fantastic. The staff, especially the owner, were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was beautiful, clean, and had everything I needed. I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Marrakech.

Our stay at this Riad was nothing short of perfect. The place is even more stunning in person, with a truly charming and cozy ambiance. Everything was impeccably clean, and the breakfast was outstanding, leaving absolutely nothing to be desired. The location is ideal – everything is within walking distance, making it the perfect base to explore Marrakech. The host was one of the best we’ve ever encountered. Super friendly, welcoming, and warm, he made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble; he was always ready to help with anything we needed. We were celebrating a birthday during our stay, and to our surprise, they even prepared a small cake for us – such a thoughtful touch! Honestly, I cannot recommend this Riad enough. It was an exceptional experience, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a perfect stay in Marrakech. Thank you again for everything!

The riad is conveniently located in a quiet  street of the medina, close to the centre but away from the crowd and the noise. It is beautiful, very clean, and very comfortable room. Youssef and Barbara are so kind and attentive and go out of their way to make your stay "the perfect stay" and make you feel at home. They helped me on every question I had from getting a local sim card to tips to visit Marrakech. They serve a delicious breakfast, all freshly made. I also had dinner at the riad, deliciously home cooked meal. Highly recommended.

Everything was perfect.

Both hosts Barbara and Yussouf were very kind and helpful. The place is very clean and quite. There is daily cleaning service. The facility is beautiful and very autentic. The owner thought of every single detail in the room and in the whole Riad. Breakfast is delicious, every day it is slightly different. I would suggest maybe something salty like an egg, just to add some protein. It's in Medina with 15mins walk from Souk and with roughly 25 mins walking from the main Square. Thank you to both hosts for making our stay so beautiful.

As a young Australian couple, Riad Dar Barbi is where you should stay on your next trip to Marrakesh. It is beautiful, clean, homey and authentic. Youssef and Barbara are the best hosts. Breakfast is absolutely delicious on their magnificent sunny terrace (birds chirping galore). There is nothing more I could have asked for from our stay! Thank you so much Riad Dar Barbi.

Nothing to add.

Our family recently stayed at Riad Dar Barbi for two days during our travels through Morocco, and it was an absolute delight. This charming Riad exceeded our expectations in cleanliness and hospitality. While some reviewers mentioned the rooms being small, we found them cozy and well-appointed, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The true gem of this Riad is its stunning courtyard. After a bustling day exploring the city, it provided a serene oasis to unwind and relax. Surrounded by lush greenery and adorned with traditional Moroccan decor, it was the perfect spot to sip mint tea and soak in the atmosphere.Additionally, the location couldn't have been more convenient. Just a short walk to the main square or a quick tuk-tuk ride away, it offered easy access to all the attractions while still providing a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle.Overall, we highly recommend Riad Dar Barbi to anyone visiting Morocco. Its combination of cleanliness, friendliness, and beautiful ambiance make it a standout choice for accommodation in Marrakech.

We were surprise that there was no door between the bedroom and the bathroom but a curtain. Even though the terrace is beautiful, we would have loved to have a view of the city.

The location was perfect because we felt safe and it was a very local neighborhood, not a touristic one. The house is beautifully decorated, tidy and clean. One can notice that they put a lot of thought into the enterior design. The environment inside the house is quiet and relaxed, we slept very well. We could hear birds every morning.

The toilet is separated from the beds by a curtain. It wasn’t a significant problem for us but could be for someone else.

Very beautiful riad, excellent location. Everything was walking distance for us. Youssef made our stay even better. His ever smiling face, his energy and eagerness to help out made all the difference. The rooms were cleaned everyday, breakfast was fresh and filling. All in all, an excellent experience.

Amazing riad! We stayed in 3 riads during our vacation and we liked this one the best. It has beautiful terrace, tasty breakfast and very friendly stuff. The room is rather small but it did not matter at all. I would definitely come back next time.
