    My first room was alittle loud but they moved me to a better one once i mentioned it .

    The best hosts someone can ask for . The manager will literally do anything for you . It was the most hospitable hotel i have stayed . The cookies and pastries are out of this world. Amin and manager are the best .

    You will need plenty of cash instead of cards/epay. But that was my fault not bringing enough

    I am still in aw of the hospitality and kindness I experienced here. They truly go above and beyond. The location is perfect! The staff can help arrange private tours (worth the higher price than the huge groups like with viator) The food was delicious, Hammam refreshingly and massages reviving or relaxing depending on style you choose. The riad itself is gorgeous and very very clean. I cannot thank the staff enough for making me comfortable on my first solo female international trip. The best!

    Our room could’ve been a little bigger. However, we booked at the last minute and it was the only room left.

    The staff were all so phenomenal and no request went unanswered. The spa services were the BEST we’ve ever experienced. We’ve been to Marrakech a few times and this was the BEST Riad that we’ve been to. The breakfast and dinners were absolutely delicious…so much so, we ate dinner there every night!

    Everything about this place is superb. It is clean, well presented and the staff are absolutely brilliant. They were happy to do anything we needed, to help and make our stay perfect. The staff don't speak much English at all (only the owner) so it would be advisable to download Arabic to a translator app before you arrive. This is by no means a negative though, just purely advice. I suppose it's kind of rude on our part really, to expect others to speak our language. I would highly recommend this accommodation when in Marrakesh and would definitely stay here again.

    The staff there were just lovely! Their attention to detail and the warmth with which they greet you no matter what time of day is just beautiful. I signed up for a cooking lesson with Fatima who despite me not knowing a common language, was so easy to connect to. Mariyah was there to solve any local conundrum. Cleanliness and ambience were perfect. The place and the staff have a very zen vibe. Fatima even helped me shop for some Moroccan cookies on my last day there. Ghizlane is the go between for translating and was available over phone at any time of the day. Truly enjoyed my stay there.

    This riad is a peaceful escape in the heart of Marrakesh - an unforgettable experience!

    The Gem of Marrakesh After a long day of walking through the streets, where vendors present their goods - ranging from fresh produce and fragrant spices to aesthetically handmade products - and amidst the loud noises of everyday life filling the air, you will be very pleased to return to this wonderful riad. Stepping inside, the contrast is immediate. Peace and quiet await. I could choose to retreat to my room, prepared with meticulous attention to detail. I could sit downstairs next to the fireplace or relax and enjoy a quiet moment on the rooftop with panoramic views of the city, whilst basking under the hot sun. Once seated, I was pleasantly surprised to be welcomed back with homemade mint tea served alongside a plate of pastries. A wonderful gesture! Mornings began with a delightful breakfast, everything one could ask for to start the day. In the evening, dinner was nothing short of magical, a multi-course meal by the crackling fireplace, each dish a testament to the flavors and traditions of Morocco. What an experience! The wonderful ladies of the riad warmly welcome their guests with hospitality that goes beyond service. They create an atmosphere where time slows down, where I could pause, reflect, and enjoy the beauty of the moment. They bring life and enjoyment into the riad and even showed me the traditional way of making Moroccan mint tea. Thanks to all this, my stay in Marrakesh was made all the more enjoyable. Here, memories are not just made, they will forever be cherished. For that, I am deeply grateful.

    This is the only hotel I've ever stayed in where they tidy your room every time you leave it. This is very sweet, but sometimes not necessary.

    I echo the comments from others about the exceptional service by the girls who run this hotel. This was one of the cheaper private rooms that I could find in Marrakesh, but the room and service were of a very high standard. The location on the edge of the Medina, in a relatively quiet area, is another advantage.

    A really lovely authentic Riad - run by the kindest women who cannot do enough for you.

    For me the bed was too hard and I just asked for extra blankets to make it softer. It was cold as I went in January and I wish I had taken warmer pyjamas and a hot water bottle! But that was my fault for not checking!

    It was such a lovely and authentic place to stay - the staff were more than friendly. Just be aware that English is not really spoken if you are coming from Europe - French is better understood. But we got by really well and nothing was too much trouble. Great position in a back street away from all the noise - a little tricky to find but they will help you - perfect for a woman travelling alone.

    The staff was extremely attentive and helpful. They met us at a point to get easily to the riad. The riad doesn't t have parking, but they took us to a parking spot 6min walking (30MAD/day), which is a big plus. Alternatively, they will contact you to arrange airport transfer, texting you on the day of arrival. The room was clean, cozy and warm. Rose petals sprinkled around, candles... Beyond expectations. The dinner was very tasty, cooked at the moment and with fresh ingredients, with special care to every surrounding details: Fireplace, privacy, beautiful atmosphere...Perfect place for relaxing away from the noise and the Marrakech business.

    Everything was perfectly organized, from the room to the breakfast. While I didn’t have the chance to try the dinner, I’m sure it would have been a delightful experience as well.

    Beautiful little riad in a quiet location in the medina. Very nice decoration, lots of rose petals and natural bath products. The room was comfortable and kept spotless. Mint tea and snacks every evening, and the breakfast is amazing. Most importantly, the ladies in charge are absolutely lovely and made me feel right at home. Really recommended.

    My Husband and I stayed at the riad for 3 nights and it was an incredible experience. The Riad itself is gorgeous, feels very clean, great location, breakfast was exceptional, service was top tier. All of the woman working at the Riad go above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful stay. I don’t typically leave reviews, but these ladies deserve the 5 stars. Thank you so much for making our trip to Marrakech even more memorable than we could imagine!

    Absolutely fantastic. 5 powerful women hold this hotel in tip top conditions. They do everything, from cooking to customer service, from tidying up the rooms to perfect massages. They gifted me and my partner the most romantic stay, every time we were leaving the room - even for a couple of hours - they tidied up the room, lit up tea candles and submerged the room with rose petals. The room was always spotless, bonus points for the amazing natus products in the bathroom - argan based shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and a fantastic body milk! Dinner on the top floor terrace was absolutely fantastic, and all the dishes we tried were cooked to perfection. Breakfast was abundant and mouthwatering. When you stay here, book a massage! 1.5h full body with argan oil, me and my partner never felt so relaxed. What made this place extra special was the friendlies of all staff, their cuteness and courtesy is something else. I really do not have enough words to praise how good this stay has been, I'm already looking forward to come back!

    The shower water at night was cold but in the morning there was plenty of hot water.

    the host made the extra effort to contact me and speak with my taxi driver to ensure I was dropped off in the best place and someone from the hotel met me to guide me through the medina. This made arrival so much easier. Breakfast was beautiful and they responded with generosity to my request for fruit and eggs since I (sadly) don't eat bread. Coffee was excellent and mint tea was lovely. Both served with breakfast along with fresh orange juice.

    The ambience of the establishment was wonderful, one couldn't fault the efforts of the staff. There were language difficulties but it was all taken in good humour. The room and the bathroom were small but perfectly adequate for our stay. We were suffering from upset stomachs and could only look with envy at the excellent brakfasts prepared for other guests but they provided us with the simple food we requested without hesitation. The access was a daunting maze to begin with but quickly became familiar. One of the most interesting accommodation places we have stayed in on our travels.
