We stayed in the Bab Sahara, the lowest offer, and I only have good things to say. The two French owners were extremely nice and greatly invested their time to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was out of this world (yet very local!), and the service was impeccable. The Riad is placed perfectly for those looking... More

A 15 minute walk from the souks, this beautiful Riad is located in the heart of the Old City. Down an ally (as all Riads are), behind a beautiful door.... heaven awaits. We were swept back in time as we walked from the taxi, down a street of food markets and mopeds thru the hustle and bustle of the Morrocon... More

Riad Armelle, oh where do you start, an amazing Riad in Marrakech - complete retreat with all the added touches of a Morrocan delight. Slightly away from the hustle and bustle of Jemaa El Fna but close enough (within a short pleasent walk) to get to all the action and sights in Marrakech. This Riad took our experience of holidaying... More

We couldn't have made a better accomodation choice for our first visit to Marrakech. It's a much needed oasis of calm at the bustling centre of the old town. We pre-booked a taxi from the airport via email (cost €15, which was very much worth it) which worked perfectly. The hotel's a five minute walk from the Bab Doukkala gate,... More

I've visited Marrakesh several times and stayed in different areas of the Medina. This area is less touristy and has a lovely feel. There is a vibrant food market here on your doorstep. The walk to the Jemaa el Fnaa is interesting and felt very safe. It's very close to the gate of Bab Doukkala so you can easily access... More

This quiet and relaxing place is located in the heart of the hussle and bussle of Marrakech yet one would not know it once you step into the Riad. The staff is fabulous. The food is outstanding. The rooms are individually unique, extremely clean and comfortable. Each room is decorated in such a way that you feel you are sleeping... More

My first time to Marrakech and was very happy to have a nice place to stay with great staff running the riad. The rooms were all decorated so nice and they had air conditioning, a big plus for those hot days. The food was great and we felt at home. If you are planning on staying in the heart of... More

Friends and I stayed for a week at the Riad Armelle, it was a great little boutique place full of character and wonderfully decorated! We stayed in the suite room (there are only 5 rooms in this guesthouse). It was wonderfully clean, and with an open bath inside the room which proved interesting! Breakfast was made for us everyday, as... More

It is on the advice of friends that we chose the RIAD ARMELLE, and really we did not regret our choice. It is a wonderful house splendidly restored, where the owners knew how to keep the oriental authenticity. The decoration is looked for and very sophisticated The charming and thoughtful staff was in total care for us, we were as... More
