We went to Casa Lalla end of October for our 10 years anniversary. Guest driver Hassan was waiting for us and took us to the hotel while on the car we start admiring the unique life of Marrakech. We were looking to run away from the chaotic London and enjoy the unique atmosphere of Marrakech (chaotic as well in his way!) and relax and experience the unique atmosphere of a typical Riad. The position is really close to the Jemaa Fna. However when we walk through the amazing door of the Riad we where embrace by the quietness, elegancy and unique atmosphere of the Riad.
Co-owner Pierre-Olivier was waiting just inside and gave us a superb welcome. He took in the dining room and beside a wonderful fire place and lovely candles he provides us with a superb story of Marrakech and a lovely aperitif. We went into our room, beautiful decorated in the typical Riad style. Following a wonderful shower we went down to the reputed restaurant of the Riad. It was an amazing experience from various prospective, cuisine, service, atmosphere! The overall time in Casa Lalla has been superb, from the morning breakfast on the terrace across the overall stay! The additional uniqueness of this Riad is back to the two owner Pierre-Olivier and Annabel, two genuine person that are making everyone guests feeling at home! And this is the beauty of any Riad and this is the reason why we loved them. We experience others in the past but Casa Lalla as a magic touch!

We stayed at Casa Lalla for a week in September and had an amazing time. This hidden Riad just a few meters from Jemaa Fna has been conceived and exquisitely decorated by owners Pierre-Olivier and Annabel.

Their driver Hassan will pick you up at the airport (their treat) and bring you through some narrow alleyways, do not let this put you off as the area is really safe and neighbours salute you on your way.
Arrival at the Riad and all of sudden you feel the truly Zen atmosphere, candles everywhere, Moroccan lanterns and the amazing courtyard make this place look as taken from an article in VOGUE or GRAZIA magazines. Pierre-Olivier and Anabel have really managed to build a stylish yet affordable oasis in central Marrakesh.

The rooms are all different and feature tasteful Morrocan art pieces and furnishings, the bathrooms are really beautiful and have Moroccan style washbasins and baths. Prices vary per room and start at 75Eur per night which is amazing given the proximity to Jemaa el Fna and the 5-star atmosphere. We were offered the choice between two rooms and picked the one upstairs; we were supposed to stay at the Riad for 4 nights but changed our plans and made it a 7 night stay instead –this says it all! ;-)

We spent our time walking up and down the lively souks, visiting beautiful Marrakesh and surroundings but also chilling by the sunbeds at Casa Lalla's fabulous roof terrace.
You do feel welcome and looked after, Pierre and Annabel are there day in and day out and advice you on where to go, what to do and even how much you should pay for all sort of activities in and around Marrakesh. Their staff is also very helpful and respectful and always have a smile for you.
We have had a wonderful stay and have enjoyed our conversations with Pierre-Olivier who could always find the time for a chat. We also tasted his cooking; which happened to be delicious! The Riad is also one of the best restaurants in Marrakesh that features in fancy restaurant and travel guides. Our meal at Casa Lalla was the best we had whilst in Marrakesh, tender exquisite melt-in-your-mouth lamb tagine we will never forget!

All in all ... a gorgeous & enchanting Riad we highly recommend and one experience we hope to be able to repeat ourselves!

We stayed at Casa Lalla in late May and early June, either side of a walking trip in the Atlas. The hotel was fabulous and a welcome refuge from the sights and sounds of the Medina. Annabel, Pierre and all the staff at the Hotel were fantastic..nothing was too much trouble, they catered for our every need. We ate in the hotel on a couple of occasions, the food was superb, service excellent and setting splendid. We are returning to Marrakech next yaer and won't stay anywhere else.

A very stylish Riad in the very heart of the Medina. The tasting dinner which is held five times a week and prepared by the owner, Pierre, is a gourmets delight and excellent value for money. Our bathroom and feature bedroom was well equipped and the four poster bed was very comfortable. Pierre and Annabelle's attention to detail and attentive service made this a very special and memorable trip. Thank you.
