We really enjoyed our two night stay. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxing. The reception was friendly and relaxed. There was also good practical help in getting around the Medina and in dealing with the usual nuisances. The main lapse was that the arranged collection at the airport did not materialise. This was compounded by the fact that the telephone... more

I booked this riad without any reviews to base decision on. From the moment I contacted the host via e mail until the moment my friend and I left Lachen (?spelling) could not have done more for us. We had a tasty hot meal cooked for us on arrival, without pre booking. Breakfasts were great, Lachen booked a wonderful local... more

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights in March, and had a wonderful stay. The Riad is an absolute haven compared to the crazyness of Marrakesh! We were 'helped' by two guides to find the Riad - we would have NEVER have found it otherwise! You should definately call the Riad when you get dropped off as it... more

Lovely comfortable Riad, Quiet area, Lahcen couldn't have been more helpful, Lovely breakfast and a short walk through the maze of streets to Jemma El Fna. more

Riad Houdou is an oasis of calm and warm hospitality amongst the chaotic sensory overload that is Marrakech. We stayed for four nights over the 2008-2009 new year and our butler, Simon, was the host from heaven. The welcome tea and cake on our arrival in the warm living louge was already indication we were to be spoiled for the... more

My husband and I have just got back from an amazing trip to Morocco and while in Marrakech we stayed at Riad Houdou and it made our trip to Marrakech even more special. The riad is a little oasis in the medina and I would reccomend this riad to anyone who wants to stay in a stunning place a little... more

I went with 13 girls to Riad Houdou over the May Bank Holiday for a hen weekend. When you arrive you are so pleased to get there as the walk to the Riad is a little hectic! The staff were lovely and helped us with all the arrangements. All of the rooms were beautifully decorated. The lounge area on the... more

we just wanted to write how lovely riad houdou was for our honeymoon. we stayed in the atlas room and had dinner one night moroccan-style, by the splash pool. the service was amazing and the riad was wonderfully tucked down a narrow road, just enough off the street to make it quiet. we'd definitely go back! more
