Inside of the building is nice and peaceful and service is good, however getting to the hotel through a laberint of streets is complicated and there is no way to get close to it by car. You need to walk a lot to get there with your luggage.

fantastic accommodation, excellent host
This Riad has been beautifully renovated, preserving its original style including tadelakt and zellig features. Yannick is a delightful, friendly host whilst Hamman is quietly attentive and Khadiji provides tasty breakfasts of fruit and local delicacies. Although difficult to find initially, its position by the Ben Youseff Mosque and Medrasa in the north end of the Souks proved an excellent location for walking to all the main attractions and restaurants. We thoroughly enjoyed our week, which allowed sufficient time to spend seeing all the beautiful architecture and gardens, negotiating the mad scooter drivers and haggling for items in the souks whilst still having time to enjoy the sun and warmth in peace by the pool on the roof terrace of the Riad.

Authentic, beautifully transformed boutique hotel.
This is a tranquil and very cozy place deep on the heart of the old Medina. It really gives a guest the cultural experience of living in a riad. The old place has been lovingly restored. It is tranquil and beautiful and a nice retreat from the crowded streets of Marrakech. It is not handicapped accessible. Our host, Lassen, made is feel very welcome. He extended to us the traditional hospitality for which Berber people are known.

Great Riad
Great Riad, decorated beautifully in traditional Moroccan style with some French touch. The owner and the staff were super nice and welcoming. My room was big, bed was very comfy, in room coffee or tea making option was really great. Internet was fast and accessible from the room. The roof top terrace was a great get away. Nearby restaurants recommended by the owner were really good. I think finding the Riad on your own first time would be very difficult.

difficult to find, but what an oasis to stay
really hidden in the Medina, but what a great home to stay. 11 Nights and what a joy it was. The Host Lahcen prepared beautiful breakfasts, however, it's Continental/French. Riad Jenai does not accept Credit Cards! even confirmation showed MC and VI symbols.

Old World with Comfort
I consider myself very lucky for having stayed at Riad Jenaï Demeures du Maroc. I had never been to Morocco and with only 3 days in-country, I chose Marrakech and then scanned possible hotels. I liked the price and the general description and booked 2 nights. When I arrived, I was more than pleasantly surprised by the fantastic atmosphere of arches, tree filled open to the sky courtyard and wonderful staff welcome. It only has five rooms, at least 4 of which front the courtyard. My room had a bit of the Arabian nights to its ambience. I was more than well treated by Luchen (sp?) and other staff during my stay. The breakfast was excellent and the rooftop verandah a pleasure at night. Added to all that, the Riad is in the old city and 2 minutes from all the shops and interesting sights therein. The one caveat I would offer is obtain a good map of the city, as I got lost several times in the winding streets - it wasn't that unpleasant, as everyone was friendly and helped me find my way, however, late at night the shops are all closed and it would be better to have a good guide. I have stayed in 100's of hotels over 45 years and would heartily recommend this one!

A beautiful Riad gem in the middle of the Medina.
An amazing stay in this beautiful traditional Riad in the centre of the Medina, near the Medersa and north of the souks. Definitely book the airport shuttle service for the Riad, you won't make it on your own. The service from our most wonderful host Lechen was friendly and first class. Our room was located on the roof terrace (I think the best spot), very peaceful and only noise interruption was the morning prayer call and the twittering of the birds (ear plugs needed if you don't like your sleep disturbed in the morning). We loved the quality of the heavily heavenly scented shower gel and shampoo. The housemaid (sorry didn't get her name) does the most amazing tidy up of the room (and again in the evening) better than any hotel service. If you like watching TV the only telly is downstairs & they provide a small DVD player in the room & you can choose DVDs downstairs. Our first night we had our Morrocan dinner in the courtyard - simple but so tasty. The breakfast was simple and presented beautifully, I even got tea with milk, and you can have breakfast wherever in the Riad, we preferred the lower levels as the wi-fi connection was stronger. We didn't make use of the outside roof terrace or the plunge pool as the weather had turned on us when we stayed, but it has amazing views. We moved on to the coast after our stay and our taxi to the bus station was kindly booked for us. Definitely a place to return to. Thank you Lechen for the turban tutorial <3

Delightful Riad
We loved staying at Riad Jenai. The riad was much better than we hoped for, and Lahcenand Khadija were brilliant. They cared for us so well and made us feel so at home. The decoration is a delight. We love the roof garden and would have loved to swim in the pool if only it was warmer - next time. Lots of lovely places to rel axand very clean. So many lovely touches made for a memorable experience. We really liked the neighbourhood. We wouldn't consider staying anywhere else. Thank you Lachen, Khadija and Jannick. Ian and Bobbie Smith

Wonderful hotel in the center of the Medina
wonderful and charming little hotel in the middle of the Medina. Works more like a guesthouse with only 4 guest rooms, and hosts on the premises. Staff was great and really helpful/service minded, the room was lovely, very authentic yet having the necessary modern comforts. good value for the price. Only minus was our day trip to Essaouira, arranged through the hotel, where despite good intentions the driver/guide did not at all live up to expectations or price level. Highly recommend staying at the Riad jenai

We are grateful for a very comfortable 2-night stay. The staff and owner are very likeable and pleasant, and will try to provide you with anything they can. The riad 's location is very central in the old town. We also enjoyed the roof terrace for breakfasts. Be aware of needing a bank wire for payment since no credit cards accepted, or just have cash at hand.

Accueil et hospitalité exceptionnelle de la part de notre hôte Kamel. Il s’est occupé de tout du début jusqu’à la fin. De l’achat de la carte sim jusqu’à l’organisation des excursions. Petit déjeuner copieux et complet. Notre hôte Kamel etait au petit soins pour nous du 1er jusqu’au dernier jour. Nous avons eu la chambre au dernier etage, tres propre et spacieuse. Le seul bémol c’est l’emplacement du riad un peu déroutant, il faut avoir un bon sens de l’orientation pour s’y retrouver 😅 Excellent séjour nous ne pouvons que recommander

Meravigliosa scoperta!
Riad bellissimo, con sole 4 stanze che sembrano dei mini-appartamenti. L'impatto con i vicoli stretti di Marrakech, soprattutto quelli che portano al Riad, e la vista all'apertura del portone è incredibile. Gestito dal proprietario in maniera quasi familiare, offre una terrazza con piccola piscina che da sola vale il prezzo dell'alloggio. Colazione servita con vista incredibile, e di alta qualità. Stupendo!

Fantastiskt boende med suverän service
Vi bodde på Riad Jenai i 7 nätter. Bli inte avskräckt när ni kommer in i Medinans trånga och lite ruffiga gränder som leder fram till boendet. Ni välkomnas av ägaren med ” öppna armar”. Inredningen är genuint Marockansk med vackra färger och med apelsinträd i entrén. Atmosfären och servicen är suverän. Varierande och bra frukost serveras på den soliga takterrassen. Riad Jenai ordnar också med transfer till och från flygplatsen, tipsar om restauranger och bokar utflykter. Vi lämnar våra varmaste rekommendationer.

so was wie 1001 Nacht
Zwar nicht ganz einfach zu finden, aber dann in meiner Wahrnehmung optimal gelegen. Sehr ruhig, ursprünglich, aber auf hohem Niveau sehr gut unterhalten. Ich fühlte mich sehr "zu Hause", in einer Oase der Ruhe und nur Minuten vom Zentrum, aber auch von den wenig touristischen nördlichen Quartieren entfernt. Leckeres Frühstück auf dem Dach.

Meget hyggelig lille Riad med god service
Husk at få konfirmeret afhentning i lufthavnen hvis I skal bo på Riad inde i medinaen!! Det er sandsynligvis umuligt at finde riad'en selv!!! Desværre glemte hotellet at hente os, så vi fik en meget dum og bøvlet start, men herfra gik alt glat og værten på riad'en taler OK engelsk og er meget venlig og hjælpsom. Morgenmaden kan fås når man ønsker det og er dejlig og afvekslende.

COMME DES ROIS
C'était pour le premier de l'an et nous avons été traités comme des rois. Sélectionné à partir des avis, le Jenai tient absolument toutes ses promesses. Accueil familial de Yannick et Yacène, somptueux petits déjeuners sur la terrasse au soleil, conseils judicieux pour les visites et restaurants… encore que le meilleur semble être la table même du Riad ! Chaudement recommandé pour une escapade en couple dans le cœur même de Marrakech.

Tolles kleines Riad
Wir wurden so freundlich empfangen, dass man sich gleich wie zuhause fühlt - die Zimmer sind liebevoll dekoriert, das Zimmer wird 2x täglich gemacht, WLAN funktioniert hervorragend in den Zimmern (allerdings gibt es keinen Fernseher im Zimmer), die Lage ist sehr gut...man sollte sich aber gut kennen, wenn man ein Zimmer bucht, weil es zum Badezimmer/WC keine Tür gibt. Riad Jenai akzeptiert keine Kreditkarten - ich dachte, das Zimmer wäre über Expedia schon bezahlt, war es aber nicht...der Chef des Hauses war allerdings so flexibel und hat mir einfach seine Bankverbindung gesagt und ich hab den Betrag dann daheim überwiesen.
