Beautiful riad, the room was spacious and the owners are so friendly and helpful! The breakfast was always super tasty, they host cooking classes there too. Lovely terrace on the roof and ideal location!

The Riad was very nice and mrs. Fatima along with her husband and the rest of the staff were very nice! We had a bit of a problem with the sink getting clogged, but the staff quickly fixed it. The breakfast was delicious and very cozy as there weren't many other visitors at riad at the time of our stay. The riad is close to most of the main tourist attractions in Marrakech and the medina is only about 15 minutes away by foot. Over all it is a very nice place to stay.

We loved our stay here, everyone was extremely helpful, welcoming and the Riad is pretty nice! We had dinner at the Riad twice, best food of our holiday so we really recommend trying it!! As vegan/vegetarians we appreciated a lot the effort of cooking something with lots of flavour for us ♡ They helped us choosing excursions and what to visit during our stay and we were not disappointed!

I was unaware of what a riad was prior to booking, which is a stay in a residence, which means your essentially sharing a space with a family. There is not much privacy and you essentially hear every conversation taking place in the residence. The family tended to stay up late having conversation into early hours of the morning. So, although everyone should experience what is like in a riad, it's not for everyone. I also felt cramped in my room. The location was also a little too far from the historic square.

Friendly riad owners. Helpful, too.

We had the twin room on the ground floor. I don't know what all the other rooms a like so can't really comment. It is one room that is literally subdivided with 2 single beds, a shower, sink and toilet. For privacy, there is only a curtain so you can literally hear and smell everything that is going on when the other person is on the loo. Lucky I have noise cancelling headphones! I suppose for £35/night for 2 people it is relatively good value so this is more of a warning rather than a complaint.

The family who run the Riad are very nice. Jaffer helped set me up with a SIM card upon arrival and was always communicative via whatsapp. Their hospitality was greatly appreciated. We also did the cooking course that is held at the Riad twice a day. It is run well and my daughter and I enjoyed the 3 hour session.

We stayed in 3 rooms and the drains in all showers were not draining.

The people are really nice. We received welcome tea and they let us keep our lugagge before check in and after check out. Location is in quieter area near Jewish souks. They also helped arrange for our transfer from bus station. Walkable distance to souks and Jem El Fnaa square. Breakfast was plentiful. There was hot water and shampoo and body wash were provided.

Nothing to complain about. Everything was fine.

Charming Riad in the heart of the Marrakesh medina, next to the Bahia Palace. From the moment you walk through the door, the hosts make you feel at home, always with a smile and ready to help with whatever you need. The breakfasts are typical Moroccan, very good and complete. In addition, we received very good recommendations for eating and visiting in the surrounding area, as well as tips to keep in mind when shopping in traditional markets. I would definitely stay here again.

Authentic Moroccan experience. Superb location close to everything.

Room was small, bathroom not isolated from bedroom so shower steam and toilet smells mix into bedroom. No access to rooftop (unless participating in cooking class). Location quite far from main attractions in Marrakech. Host was a bit distant compared to other riads.

Riad was clean, breakfast was okay. Host promptly prepared our room on arrival and allowed us in early.

Really enjoyed my stay at the Riad Sultan. Yasser and his family were warm and friendly hosts. The riad serves breakfast from 9am on the rooftop terrace. If you’ve got an early start for an excursion, they will kindly pack your food up to take with you. Yasser also organised my transfers to and from the airport (€15 each way), which meant I didn’t have to worry about getting ripped off by an unscrupulous taxi driver! The riad is located a 15/20 minute walk from the main square within Medina, the old city. It’s not far from the action. I highly recommend this place.

Even though the owners were great people and it was very cheap I wouldn’t come back simply because of how uncomfortable it was. - The room was extremely small, I had never seen such a small room before (it was so small that I literally couldn’t open my suitcase because there wasn’t enough space on the floor). I never have issues with the size of the room (I’m not very fussy) but in this case it was a bit too much even for me, one person had to stay on the bed for the other to be able to pass through, very claustrophobic. - The bathroom was extremely uncomfortable too. There is just a niche in the corner of the room without a door. The sink, toilet and a shower head are all in the same place (so when u shower the water splashes on everything). The drainage system was working so poorly that after showering for 5 minutes everything was floating (imagine the toilet brush floating in the same water as you’re showering), so basically one person can take a shower and the other has to wait for the water to go down (which is extremely slow, you literally have to wait an hour or two to be able to go there again because the drainage system simply does not work!). - Third thing that was the cherry on top was the noise. The doors and the window to the room are wooden and do not provide any soundproofing at all and since it’s a riad it’s all very compact, the rooms are very close to each other and very close to the main entrance doors too so you can hear every single noise in your room. The biggest issue for me was the owner’s child, because he was very loud throughout the day and we could hear the screaming all the time (sometimes even late in the evening at 11pm or later and then again early in the morning so we couldn’t get a proper sleep at all). Overall, I don’t want to bad-mouth this place because of how kind the owners are but I have to warn other travelers because at the end of the day these things can really ruin your stay.

+ The staff is great, very kind and helpful people + It has a great location (just 10min walk to Bahia Palace) + Very cheap compared to other hotels in Marrakesh

Some things to bare in mind is that although it's located quite close to the centre, to actually get to the Riad we had to go through a series of small alleyways which did not show up clearly on Google maps and we wished there were more signs. Also, the room we had was very small, but it was clean, and it was an ensuite.

The staff was extremely hospitable and attentive. We had to leave very early in the morning to catch our flight, and they made sure we had breakfast to take with us to the airport. They also helped us book a transfer to the airport. In general, the Riad was clean and nice and we would stay again in the future.

Booked a family room, its was the size I usually get when I travel alone. No room to pass each other as very narrow. My bed medium and pillow medium(very nice) the sofa was rock hard and the other 2 pillows which caused poor quality sleep.

The host was friendly polite and helpful The Moroccan design was nice Very quiet on a night time
