Just returned from 7 nights in this riad in the old town of Marrakech. I picked it from TripAdvisor members' comments and they were spot on.
The owners are very attentive and the staff are fantastic. Very friendly and keen to help. We ate there twice - Abdul, the chef, is a star!!
The riad is beautifully decorated and so close to the Djemma El Fna square and to the souks. What a pleasure it is to return from a hot day in the medina to drop into the plunge pool on the roof - bliss!
If you get the chance, go on the day out to the mountains for a more or less strenuous hike with Ali or his brother Nordine. Freshly picked almonds never tasted so good.

“Stunning place to stay”

Riad Le Clos des Arts

Jun 24, 2008

What a beautiful place to stay........
The riad is an oasis of calm in the heart of the Medina, only 5 mins walk from the Place de Fna square with its food stalls, snake charmers etc.
The riad facilities were excellent, the rooms were well equipped and very comfortable yet retaining all the touches of Morrocan culture.
The roof terrace was amazing - a great place to eat your breakfast when you finally managed to get out of bed! The pool was a welcome relief from the heat of the day and loungers were great to doze off on with a pot of mint tea!
Best of all were the staff. They were so helpful and charming and went the extra mile to meet any requirements we had.
We have NEVER stayed anywhere so lovely and will definately return again.
Thank you John Pierre, Edith and all the staff for giving us such as memorable holiday - Sue and Dominic

“Faultless”

Riad Le Clos des Arts

Feb 15, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

Friendly english speaking owners and staff made us and our two young sons feel very welcome.

The riad was finished to a high quality and was only 5 mins from the square.

Roof top terrace provided an excellent chillout zone after a surreal day in the square and souks.

The riad was the highlight of our stay in Marrakech and we would recommend this accomodation to all.

“lovely ryad”

I spent 4 days at the lovely ryad "Le clos des arts" at Marrakech(Morrocco). Located near Pace Jamaa el Fna, this typical moroccan ancient house has an art gllery and a swimming pool on the roof. Madam and Mister Clos were incredibly nice with me. They speak english, french, italian etc... What I really appreciatein that ryad is its size which is very convivial

Excellent small riad! We spent four nights here: the location, only about 5 minutes walk from the main square, Jemaa al Fna, is perfect and it is a small oasis of peace after a hectic day sightseeing and wandering around the souk. The French couple who own it, Jean-Pierre and Edith, are extremely friendly and relaxed, nothing was ever a problem and they really let you do what you want. The riad is filled with art and is beautifully and tastefully decorated.The pool on the roof is also a blessing after a heavy day touring. We had one of the smaller rooms - fine, but next time would definitely take a larger room. We also ate at the riad one night, food was great and perfectly prepared.
