We stayed at Riad 72 for a few days in April. What a wonderful experience for our first visit to Marrakech and Morocco. Christian, the manager, and all the staff were excellent, the service they provided was faultless and caring. The Riad provides an atmosphere of great calm after the buzz and energy of the Medina, it is much larger... More

It is impossible to convey the level of service you get in this fantastic Riad. Nothing is too much trouble, There are only 4 rooms in this beautiful palace like building so you feel like you have the place to your self a lot of the time.It feels like you are at home in your very own mansion being waited...

We stayed in Riad 72 for a few nights and it was wonderful. Excellent food and friendly service, and a perfect location close to everything but quiet and peaceful once you step inside. Dinner on the rooftop terrace on our first night was a perfect way to start our trip. Great value for money and absolutely beautiful rooms with lots... More

A remarkable riad. We had a wonderful stay here. Food was amazing, in particular the incredibly generous breakfasts we had on the roof terrace......a wonderful start to our day. The service we were given was faultless. Amazing location. Would always recommend this to friends and family heading to explore Marrakech.

From the moment we stepped into Riad 72 we knew that we were in for something special. There is a real sense of tranquility that owes as much to the refined tastefulness of the refurbishment of the riad as it does to the outstanding personlised service of all the staff. This is a boutique hotel at its best. No request,... More

The 4 room Riad was a former noblemans home and thus claimed the right to build higher than his neighbours. The rooms are luxurious and stylish, the Riad is Italian owned and renovated, we stayed in a room called 'Lille', with its high ornate wooden ceilings, large loungey bed and traditional meets modern bathroom design you are guaranteed an oasis...

The hotel has a good location in the old town just north west of the main souk. The staff are very helpful and several of them speak good english. It's certainly worth organising airport transfers with the hotel as it is not on a main street and would be difficult to find, particularly if like us you are on your... More

As wonderful as when we first visted 8 years ago! Whether arriving for the first time or returning from a day of Marrakech madness, from the moment you step through the huge wooden door you are transported to an oasis of calm and beauty. The Riad is beautiful in every detail. It doesn't try to recreate the feel of the... More

Riad 72 is the perfect place to combine tranquility, excellent food and superb service. Located behind a wooden door at the end of a labyrintic ally, this Moroccan-Italian Riad is an ideal oasis for an extended weekend in this intriguing city. When you have enjoyed your late night cocktail at the Mamounia followed by a dinner at Le Foundouk be... More
