We stayed here mid October and we were very very happy indeed. Everything was just perfect. Just inside the medina is this very special accommodation. We spent 11 days travelling Morocco, and Riad Kniza was the best! Beautiful riad, beautiful decor, and beautiful staff and owner, who makes himself known to you and is very welcoming. He asked that we treat his home like our own and not to hesitate to ask for anything, how often does this happen? Riad Kniza has had some pretty amazing famous people visit, amongst them ex-presidents, actors/actresses including Brad Pitt, Goldie Hawn etc. The rooms are spacious and beautifully presented. Gorgeous indoor pool area, fantastic rooftop where you are able to have your meals, relax or sunbathe. I love that on arrival you are shown into a 'lounge' area, offered good mint tea and relax while they check you in. After being out for the day it is like coming home each evening and just can't wait to be spoilt again with a relaxing dinner & wine on the quiet rooftop with great weather. Would 100% recommend anyone to go, you definitely won't be disappointed!

We have just come back from a long weekend in Marrakech having stayed in the lovely Riad Kniza. The Riad itself was one of the highlights of our stay; beautiful decorated, very attentive yet discrete staff and perfectly located to walk to the hussle, bussle of the souks, or to jump in a cab to venture further afield. The staff could really not do enough for us - they organised a walking tour guide for us, taxis and multiple restaurant bookings, and the food we ate in the Riad was of excellent quality and very good value. We will be recommending Riad Kniza to family and friends and hope to go back again soon!

We had read that when you stay in the Medina you are met at your taxi by a guy from your Riad and then literally he will sprint through through the market trailing your baggage until you arrive in a quiet lane and confronted by a huge carved wooden door that, when opens, welcomes you into your own paradise. It's all true!! This has just happened to us and the experience was magical. At Riad Kniza nothing is too much trouble. The service discreet and efficient and whatever you require is executed with a smile and respectful friendliness.
This was our first visit to Marrakech and the whole trip came well up to our expectations.
Riad Kniza has been lovingly and sympathetically renovated to its original glory. The finishes, furnishings and fittings are all of beautiful quality. Go....stay....whether for something special or just for a splurge, it will rejuvenate you.

We have just spent 6 days at Riad Kniza, the perfect end to an 18 day stay in Marrakech. From the minute I contacted the riad by email from our home near Seattle, they helped to arrange the stay and offered special deals and excursions to the coast and to the desert that would have been difficult to arrange on our own.

We arrived at the riad after spending a full day on the road coming back from the dunes and were greeted by Kamal, the son of the owner, who gratefully recognized how exhausted we were and arranged a fantastic small meal for us before showing us to the Ambar Suite: a two story set of rooms up the stairs right off of the reception. The riad has the MOST comfortable bed we have slept on in a long time and amazing, soft, high count cotton sheets as well. We slept like babies, only to awaken to a fabulous breakfast served in our room which we, like everyone else who has left a review here has said, could not once finish.

The last night of our stay we were upgraded to the Royal Suite which was an incredible treat. Three huge rooms and so many closets and cubbyholes that we almost got lost in the space. It was a fun way to end our stay at the magical riad.

We found the Hammam and the massages to be superb. The restaurant is entirely deserving of its' great reputation. The staff was excellent and catered to our every whim. Our driver Abdou was our mentor and teacher and became a lifelong friend. It was a first time trip to Morocco for me and I fell in love with the country and the people AND the Riad Kniza. We will return. Inshallah.
