when you drive to villa savinio (one of the lotus group's marrakech properties) in the palmeraie, you aren't sure what to think. you pass dusty construction sites and seem to leave civilization behind. but, like a mirage, the villa appears, and behind its doors await a day of relaxation. i learned about the villa's great spa deal through the owners... more

The Lotus Amber Riad is an excellent place to stay, very tranquil, clean, relaxing and only minutes away in the Medina from all the 'Action' of Marakech. All the staff are very friendly, polite and helpful, especially Borack, who is well educated with a wonderful personality without being fimiliar and he speaks very good english, nothing was any trouble to... more

A hidden gem in the narrow streets of the Medina, only footsteps away from the square Jamaa El Fna and the souks. Yet it is very quiet and peaceful. The personnel is extremely friendly and helpful. The food was very good. Even better, we followed some cooking classes organised by the chef, so that we could share the taste of... more

Absolutely fantastic. Great riad! We made a reservation for the Arabic room and we were upgraded to the Kennedy suite – in part thanks to make the reservation directly with the property. We’ve been lucky as we have been the 5 days alone with no more customers sharing the riad. Staff there have been absolutely great. Mbarak and Abdu made... more

Excellent, crazy time in Marrakech! We spent 3 nights at Riad Lotus Ambre from 20th-23rd Nov.

We have just returned from a most delightful 6 night experience at the Lotus Riad Ambre. What can one say – service, ambience, location all were quite superb. The Lotus Riad Ambre has a superb location just 100m down some narrow streets from the main square very easy to locate. The ambience of the Riad is very traditional and furnished... more

we enjoyed our stay very, very much at a lovely hotel with very friendly people... I especially remembered a friendly guy named Barack and Bakija (I think)... The service was just great, the rooms nice an clean. We had diner in the riad itself and I can highly recommend it. Food was great. However, I sometimes got the feeling the... more

A truly exceptional Riad! Our 3 night stay was faultless from start to finish. The location, the decor, the food, the ambiance and (especially!) the staff were first class. I would have no hesitation in recommending this Riad to anyone. more

I could write pages about this beautiful and characterful riad but that might spoil the surprise and pleasure of seeing it yourself for the first time. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and extremely well equipped. The attention to decorative detail throughout the riad is breathtaking. But what made our stay here so memorable where the people who work here. The... more
