amazingly kind masters to travelers, and stylish rooms! You might get lost on the way to the riad boussa, but it is also the best part of being in Marrakesh.. :) 2 nights were so short for me... should spend 3-4 nights at least to explore fascinating Marrakesh!

In November of 2012, we traveled over 10 days in Morocco visiting Casablanca, Fes, Ourzazate and Marrakech. While there, we stayed in a variety of 6 different hotels/riads. Put simply- Riad Boussa was heads and tails above the rest. Everything about it rates 5 stars- the location (5 min. walk to the heart of Djema el-fna), the building (newly renovated, clean, artistic, classically beautiful), private comfortable rooms with gorgeous windows and doors, helpful and warm staff (the owner Bridgette and her staff are always beaming and available for any needs), delicious and filling breakfast (in our case- fresh, juicy pomegranate, hand squeezed orange juice, yogurt, pancakes, chocolate croissants, mint tea, coffee, etc.), etc. Quite honestly, the evenings were magical there- flickering candles everywhere, fragrant rose blossoms in every corner of the riad and rooms, Adele playing softly in the background... It was a world away from the exotic chaos just outside the door. :-)

But perhaps the best example of the hospitality shown was when they noticed our 4-year old son was not drinking his orange juice in the morning...so Bridgette went out and got him a special children's milk drink that he ADORED for the next two mornings of our stay there. It was just such a personal touch that we felt like a guest in her home (it is her home after all) instead of a guest at a hotel.

We are from Hawaii, where a comparable accommodation to Riad Boussa (we had two rooms there) would normally cost $250-300 per room per night. It felt like such a luxury and privilege to be there.

We're also world travelers who have yet to visit the same place twice...however, I have already made plans to return to Riad Boussa/Marrakech in five years to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary.

Without a doubt, the three nights we stayed there were the very best we've ever experienced worldwide, and will be simply unforgettable for anyone who chooses to stay there.

Me and my friend stayed at this charming Riad in October for 4 nights. Riad has only 4 rooms and Brigitte and her staff`s warm welcome makes you feel right at home. It has a nice rooftop terrace where you can have breakfast and relax. Breakfast and dinner was delicious and we loved the mint tea! Location was close from Place Djemaa el Fna and convenient to go anywhere. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you Brigitte and staff of Riad Boussa!

and she is only nine. And boy was she right. From the moment we arrived into Riad Boussa the welcome was warm, the air filled with the scent of essential oils and our room a haven after the frenetic trot through the Marrakech alleys. Madame Grillion and her staff organised a welcome round of the ubiquitous mint tea and sat with us to show us the ropes, suggesting places of interest and good restaurants. Each suggestion was on point and we really valued all of her local input. The breakfast was tasty and satisfying. The location central. I have only high praise for this little Marrakech jewel.
