    Everything was amazing! You know a place is special when it is the highlight of your trip. The hospitality from everyone at Riad Melhoun was amazing. Myself and my wife stayed here for a week to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and we truly felt like we were at home. We befriended the staff there who were some of the kindest people we have met and they really made our anniversary trip feel special. They upgraded us whilst a nicer room was available and even gave us a wonderful parting gift. If you wish to dine here, the food is exceptional and home made. The best dinner we had during our trip was in the Riad itself. Everything is fresh! The spa treatments were also great and made us feel this way too. The place itself is stunning and so comfortable. The centre inside with the lovely pool feature, the rooms, the spa and the rooftop with another pool provide many ways to help you feel relaxed. It truly felt like a real authentic Moroccan stay. We could not recommend this place enough and hopefully we will be lucky enough to stay here again if or when we come back to Marrakech. Nour, Abdul, Mohammed, Ahmed, Jamal + everyone else who works there (sorry if we have not included your name) were amazing and the highlight of our stay. We are very happy to have got the chance to meet them and wish them the best! Thank you for a wonderful stay!! If you want a truly authentic Moroccan experience that makes you feel at home then this is the place for you.

    Amazing experience, one of the best hotels we’ve ever stayed at! The staff is incredible, very welcoming and will accommodate to any need. We have enjoyed two dinners at the Riad, and they were among the best meals we’ve had on the entire trip. Location is hard to beat: easy walk to everything that Medina had to offer, yet incredibly quiet and peaceful inside the Riad. The heated swimming pool was a huge hit with our son after long days with exploring!

    Nothing to improve on!

    It was a pleasure to stay at Riad Melhoun. The Riad is centrally located and beautifully renovated. All of the staff were warm and knew how to make us feel at home. They paid special attention to our 4 year old daughter, who had a great time in the roof deck pool. Breakfast was excellent and substantial. We also had dinner at the Riad and each night the food was excellent. The excursions recommended by the hotel were also really fun.

    Nothing, they really went out their way for us

    From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home, the staff are absolutely exceptional, extremely helpful, friendly and go out of their way for you. The Riad is situated perfectly for getting around the Medina and for getting out if you want to (we went hot air ballooning which was organised by the manager) highly recommend! They sorted our transfers to and from the airport as well so it was a very smooth pleasant experience. The accommodation itself was absolutely stunning, it felt very Moroccan and is a peaceful oasis from the hustle and bustle of the streets of Marrakech. Rooftop pool was lovely and our room was really really beautiful. We also discovered the best food we had throughout our entire trip was in the riad, no word of a lie, the chicken tagine is absolutely f**king insane, literally out of this world! Shout out to the cook! We had a hammam and relaxing tonic massage there as well which was fabulous, particularly the hammam, we felt reborn and then slept like logs. All in all, 10/10, maybe 11/10. Love from Briege and Zach ☺️

    Nothing.

    Where to start about this marvellous gem of a stay. I left it very late to book and was lucky to get a cancellation at this Riad but I had no idea what I had chanced upon. The place is beautiful from the minute you go through the small traditional outside door. The pictures tell it but they don’t show the quality of the furniture and the little things that make this a true five star plus experience. Two pools the one on the roof terrace is heated and lovely and warm.The downstairs one is just beautiful. It’s quiet at night and location wise is perfect as it is next to the Bahia palace,the spice market,fish market and a straight walk up to the souk. The breakfast is wonderful and taken on the roof terrace with views of the city is unforgettable so were the two meals I had by the pool at night.So reasonably prices and what a setting. A fabulous massage in the Riads own spa a nicer experience than my visit to tripadvisors no1 hammam nearby, complementary sun hats sprinkled around the lovely loungers on the roof and you get the idea of the attention to detail put into the place. Last but the opposite of least.The staff. What a bunch of lovely folk.I was Mr Mark for the four days.I wont mention names it would be unfair but just to say all were gorgeous people and made me feel special.Thank you. My first trip to the city.The Riad Melhoun made my week.It was the highpoint. Book this Riad.Eat at night by the pool.You wont forget or regret it.

    Room was slightly small and had a bit of an issue with the drainage in the shower other than that everything was great!

    We had a fantastic stay at Riad Melhoun & Spa! The staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout my visit. A special thanks to Ahlam and Ahmed who we had great conversations with, Abdsamad and Mohammed who always greeted us with a smile and made sure we felt comfortable and Jamal who went out of his way to find us a supermarket at late hours. They made us feel so welcome and took care of everything we needed. The Riad itself is stunning, peaceful, and perfectly located, with delicious food and great attention to detail. The location was amazing and everything was only 10-15min drive from the riad. We highly recommend Riad Melhoun to anyone visiting Marrakech – an unforgettable experience! - Sagar & Shilpa

    Very well located for a trip to the souks and all the tourist attractions. The Riad is beautifully restored, in keeping with the traditional Moroccan guest houses. The attention to detail and the staff hospitality made this trip one of the best experiences I’ve had whilst travelling. Jamal and the team were extremely welcoming and accommodating, made us feel like royalty! The highlight of our trip was the romantic dinner on the Riad rooftop Jamal and the team organised for us. They set up the space so carefully ans the atmosphere was like a fairy tale. My partner also enjoyed a Haman and a massage here as well, which were both a 5* experience! The other mention we would like to make is the housekeeper who every day managed to surprise us with beatiful towel arrangements and rose petals. What a great holiday!

    Our review of this beautiful and cosy Riad must start with praises for Jamal. Jamal was the receptionist/host when we arrived; from the start till the end of our stay he made it really special. He was extremely polite and cordial, had helpful suggestions for everything we asked. We had booked Gaya Suite which was the only suite on the ground floor next to the natural pool, which made it feel very private. The Riad is centrally located which means everything is accessible very easily. We booked transfer from Airport, excursion to Ait Ben Haddou and transfer to Essaouria from the hotel - all at a very reasonable prices. Jamal also provided helpful tips regarding shopping and navigating the streets of Marrakech. We took the royal couple spa which was nice. We also had dinner at hotel - they made wonderful tagines and salads - again very very personalised. We also ate at other places but the food made at the hotel felt more authentic and homely, thanks to the chef. Breakfast was delicious and plenty - Jamal also prepared breakfast for us early at 6:30, on the day we had our trip to Ait Ben Haddou. Overall - very good experience - we will definitely come back!

    Loved our stay here. It’s beautifully decorated, has a great rooftop for relaxing, incredible courtyard to have lunch in. Warm and helpful hosts. Great breakfasts all of which we had on the rooftop all to ourselves due to there only being 9 rooms, so it was an incredibly peaceful stay. Hamman experience was great too.

    Nothing - everything was perfect

    The hotel is beautifully appointed. The main room is stunning, with plenty of comfy corners and of course the pool as the centre piece. The upstairs roof terrace again has plenty of smaller areas with more than enough seating and sunbeds, all beautifully decorated, and one of the prettiest rooftop pools I've ever seen. Everything throughout the hotel has been carefully curated with excellent attention to detail. The staff were exceptional, constantly going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and happiness throughout the stay. We enjoyed the onsite hammam spa and a beautiful evening meal, both kindly arranged for us by the staff. I researched many different riads in Marrakech and I'm delighted that I chose Riad Melhoun, we can't wait to visit again.
