we had reserved a simple double room with two beds, and they had availability of two wonderful suites, so they gave us the two suites, one for each, for the price of one double room!!! We had a wonderful time and the location is perfect, right next to the souks and a market where you will find no tourists, just natives. The staff fulfilled all our special wishes, with no extra costs and always with a smile and great sense of hospitality! We will surely repeat!!!

The Riad is just off a main road toward the top of the souks in the medina. Once you get over the initial confusion of where you are it's very easy to get to the square through the souks, about 5 min walk. Very pretty with the most amazing beds. We stayed in the twin which was nice but if you are in a couple the bedroom with a double bed on the ground floor is stunning with a giant bed that looks a bit like a boat. Jamilla who looks after the place is really lovely, it would probably help to speak French here but both myself and my mum are rubbish at french and still got by fine. Breakfast is lovely on a gorgeous little terrace. We didn't see the manager, Laurence during the 5 days we were there but her husband Karim did pop by. He recommended a lovely locals restaurant in the new town which we ate in. Plastic chairs in the street and proper local food, the food and taxi all in cost around £10 for 2 people. They offered us a tour of the tanneries at around £60 for a half day, we thought it was pricey so we got a taxi in the street and paid £10 for the whole experience which included the taxi waiting for us and taking us back to the square and a guide we picked up outside the tannery with generous tips. Maybe their tour had more to offer but it's a big difference in price. They offered to cook us dinner in the riad which was a very reasonable cost but we wanted to venture out so didn't do it. The mint tea they make is amazing and the place is spotless.

I was quite taken aback by the friendliness, courtesy and knowledge of staff, also their willingness to impart that information. The Riad was spotlessly clean and comfortable and fantastically decorated.Once shown to my room I was ushered to the 4th floor and treated with a pot of Mint Tea. Fantastic! And the hospitality didn't stop there. You are within striking distance, on foot, of the main square. Snake charmers by day and fantastic, yet inexpensive food at night. I recommend food stall 117! I shall return to Morocco and will certainly stay at this Riad again. Many thanks to all of the staff.

We stayed at the riad on family holiday in Nov 2009. We had a great time in Marrakech and Laurence and her husband as well as Fatima and Fatima made every effort to look after us. In fact on the holiday it was also my birthday. We came back from a walk on our final day to find they had arranged a cake and tea to mark the occasion.

The riad was beautiful with each room individually styled. It wasn't the cheapest riad available and at times we were short of hot water, but on the whole it was a great riad with excellent service!
