A beautiful surprise as it is in the historical section of Marrakech. Close to the Medina. Luxurious interior. Multi storey with wonderful rooftop views. Wonderful service from start to end of our stay. Hospitable in every way. A great find!

Our small group of 3 female friends booked a 3 night stay here based on the photos and other online reviews. However we felt misled, as it was an untidy and dirty Riad, with dirty floors throughout and piled up stuff behind curtained areas. We were not shown around on arrival so made our own way upstairs to have a look at the roof terrace. Open bedroom doors en route, showed towels and bedding all over the floors. The roof terrace had a very long old string of celebration balloons that had clearly been there for weeks (mostly shrivelled up), which showed just how little things were cared for. The entrance reception area was 2 large tables covered in a plastic tablecloths. Our bedroom door (Ivory room) room key was a tiny 2cm padlock and 1cm key. My friend booked a ‘junior suite’ and got the Paris room which looked like a dark cell, was warm and without a fridge. There was no bottled water available in the rooms. The towels on our bed looked like they were not clean and had not been washed (just sprayed with something), the threadbare rugs looked dirty. Whilst there, we heard that another guest was ill in bed with some kind of with some kind of food bug whilst we were there. She had been stuck there bed bound for 2 days. We decided to find alternative accomodation instead, and so left and checked out the same day without unpacking. It feels sad to leave this review, as we were so excited about our Moroccan trip and this first impression changed everything.

The hotel was hidden in residential area with no name! Beautiful place and the staff make it worth. They are super friendly and helpful. They really go above and beyond to make our stay a great experience. I highly recommend because of staff and very close to shopping area and some tourists places. Don’t let the area intimidate you it’s very safe and great location.

The Riad staff were really friendly and helpful. The room itself was cosy, with a comfortable bed and warm spacious shower. The dinner was not to our taste however the breakfast was delicious with soft tender eggs and pancakes served with great peanut butter and honey on the side. Location is excellent. This Riad is highly recommended if you are trying to experience Morocco the proper Moroccan way!

Unbelievable!! Cannot say enough about this hotel. The owner and staff were exceptional. They went out of their way to make a stay for my family feel welcome and safe. They set up tours, dinners, and experiences that made our stay in Marrakesh over-the-top. The rooms were gorgeous, the roof deck beautiful and its unique charm and tribute to Josephine Baker is romantic and beautifully done. The owner took the time to greet and welcome is. He personally made sure that we had a great stay. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. We are so happy that we stayed here. It truly made our visit! A million thank yous to the staff and owners.
