“Beautiful Riad in great central location in Marrakech”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 2, 2013

From the moment we arrived until we left Fabien and Laurence made us feel completely welcome and at home in this beautiful Riad. It is perfectly located close to El Fna square, the souks and some great restaurants which we thoroughly enjoyed after Fabien’s recommendations on our arrival. My partner had been sick for 3 days prior to our arrival and Laurence and Fabien even went out of their way to give him some medicine which helped him straight away. We were also very thankful for Fabien’s spa/hammam recommendation which saved us over 1000MAD compared to the other spas we were looking at booking with. The rooms were very clean and the bed was so comfortable, it was the best sleep my partner and I had the entire trip. The breakfast was excellent and very tasty and all the staff working in the Riad were so friendly you never felt like you were being troublesome. For the price of the room and the level of service which the friendly and knowledgeable hosts had, I wouldn’t look any further for a great Riad in Marrakech.

“Good for the price but not as good as the rating would suggest!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed November 25, 2012 via mobile

Really owners and really good rooms with à good bed and à good shower. Also good daytrips and good help from the owners with finishing restaurants. Close to the souks and the main square. There are also some minus points to this riad though. The smell in the place was not so good when we came in, this was delt with as soon as we made à remark about this though. Altough we didn,t mind the owners have two little children who do make some noise and even one night we could hear them. Also the main hal is the living room for the family so there will always be children in there. Again we did not mind but if you come for à silent riad dont pick this one. Last point is that the whirlpool was not filled, this wasnt mensioned when booking. The Wifi did not reach into the room as was advertised on booking. We did have à good time though !!

Dear Guest,

I thank you very much for your compliments concerning the help we bring to our guests.

I am however surprised by your comments because I asked you every day if everything was O.K. and even the day of your departure, and you always answered me positively.

As regards the smell, no host has ever indicated me it, and it is true even during your stay. When you indicated it to me, I effectively spread of some perfume to be pleasant to your pregnant wife but nothing smelt.

Concerning the pool, we had just cleaned it and did not precipitated to fill it as the outside temperature did not allow to put itself in swimsuit at this moment. I would have hurried to make it if you had required it to me. But it is done now: we have filled it again.

For the WiFi, it works very well but maybe not exactly in the place where you wished it. I I want to specify that you were all the time on the privative terrace and that the WiFi works there perfectly.

We put all our heart for the biggest satisfaction of our hosts and did not hesitate, although it is not the schedule of the breakfast, to wake up at 06:00 am the days of your excursion and departure so that you did not leave with the empty stomach.

“Lovely, relaxing riad in a great location.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012

Fabien and laurence were lovely hosts and very attentive. The riad itself was exceptionally clean and felt like home - extremely comfy. Location was perfect, close enough to the souks yet away from the hecticness to be a relaxing stay. On arrival Fabien was kind enough to run through some recommendations for Marrakech (although these did come with a price tag so if you'd on a budget ask first - however had every confidence Fabien only recommended the best). Laurence was lovely enough to send an email with lots of details about our next stop in Essaouria - Thanks!!

Overall, a great stay and would definitely recommend.


(Was a little bit disappointed that the hot tub wasn't working but I'm sure Fabien will have fixed this by now)

“Extraordinary”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 19, 2012

Wow! This was definitely one of our top highlights from our two-week trip in Morocco. One immediately feels at home not only due to the beautiful, comforting Riad environment but because of the owners, Fabien and Laurence. They recommended restaurants, gave useful tips on bartering, booked a hammam and much more. We definitely highly recommend staying here and we would love to come back again.
