It's tricky to find, but there are plenty of locals willing to help you find your way. And once you've navigated your way through the souks it's only a 10 min saunter down to the Jamma El Fna.
Our room, the Yellow Room, had a beautifully decorated ceiling and an authentic Moroccon bathroom. It was exceptionally hot when we visited but we were made as comfortable as possible. A fan was provided and our drinks we kept regfridgerated til we needed them.
The breakfast was served on the roof terrace, heaps of bread, jam and mint tea, delicious.

Excellent Riad, beautifully decorated and a wonderful staff that was very helpful and cooked delicious diners.
Even though the Riad is hard to find (take the transfer from the airport), it is extremely well located in the Medina (only few minutes walk from Jemâa El Fna and other attractions)!
It is noisy at night (because of the proximity of the mosque).
The rooms could be better equipped and more comfortable, but other than that, I absolutely recommend Riad Darna!

Very clean good food we booked the evening meal for the first night as we were arriving late and excellent location.It is advisable to ask the riad to book transfers from the airport as it is hard to find till you get to now the area but one off the staff will take you to the Medina and meet you later to bring you back if you want.Brilliant riad would stay there again if i go back

This was our first ever visit to Marrakech and it was a real eye opener. We thought we had been picked up and put back into biblical times. Dusty roads, donkey lead carts transporting fruit and vegetables and a riot of colour everywhere you looked.
The locals were polite and very friendly. Yes, they were trying to sell their goods, but were happy if you just looked around their shop and left without buying.

When we first arrived at the entrance of Riad Darna it was very off putting. It is situated at the end of a very dark, alleyway, with no hotel signs whatsoever, however once inside it was a very different story. The Riad was beautifully maintained, the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming and were more than helpful every day of our visit. The home-made catering at the Riad was excellent value for money and the staff very attentive. All in all a definite jewel and a wonderful experience.

Top tip - take a piece of chalk (it will help you find your way back) but be prepared to get lost....many times.
