Getting there
Great for walkers
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
From the moment we walked through the door, we could tell we had chosen the perfect Riad. Abdul welcomed us warmly and served us tea while checking us in. After a long night waiting for a delayed flight it was just the right touch to soothe us for sleep. In the morning we met Samira, what a delightful soul. A musical voice and a ready laugh like a tinkling bell. Both were gentle, caring and, oh so helpful. They are ready and able to arrange any guides, spa visits, and recommend the best local shops and eateries. The Riad is located close enough to the Jemma el-Fnaa that there was no fear of getting lost, but far enough away that the nights were quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. The decor was elegant and luxurious, sitting in the lounge at the end of the day was a highlight. I would highly recommend Riad Des Nations to anyone visiting Marrakech. It was certainly the highlight of our trip.

The riad has a perfect location 1 minute from the square, is quiet, clean and has a magnificent breakfast and very nice staff, comfortable beds and air conditioning. We were served tea with pasta and provided breakfast picnic when we needed it. I recommend it.

Had a brilliant 5 night stay here. Felt like I was a guest in someone's home rather than just at a hotel. Samira and Jemel were fantastic hosts, always happy to help or have a chat but also let you get on with things. - Breakfast was simple but plentiful and tasty and it was brilliant having it on the roof terrace, from which you can see the main square. - Room had a very comfortable bed, plenty of pillows, daily housekeeping, a large closet with a small safe (not big enough for laptops, but the rooms are secure). - Beautiful shower room with plenty of hot water and soap/shower gel, hairdryer included. - Location is a stones throw from central Medina so you are at the centre of the action, and not far from Hotel Ali for obtaining funds or changing currencies. - They can arrange airport taxi pick up, and back to the airport too (I recommend if it's your first time). - I didn't book any activities, try the spa, or have dinner with them as I enjoyed getting lost in Medina so much, but they are available too for similar prices to other providers. - I booked on the hotels app but paid cash in euros on first day as requested (no cards accepted) - this appears to be common in Marrakech, not just at hotels. Again Hotel Ali and nearby cash machines are your friend
Minor negatives - the room got cold at night, but there is an effective heater/aircon unit that warms up the room very quickly. You should still pack a warm jumper or two. At this time of year temperature drops hard at midnight and stays cool until around 10-11am. Also you are very close to the main square in Medina - the soundproofing is fantastic but not perfect so consider packing or buying earplugs if you're sensitive - this will likely be an issue if you're staying anywhere within a mile of the main square.
I will definitely be staying here again if there is availability. Have already recommended and passed their card to two friends.

Riad located in the center, a stone's throw from the main square in a quiet alley. Our stay was made more pleasant by Abdul and Samira who were always kind and helpful. At Check-in Abdul immediately offered us green tea and delicious local pastries. Breakfast was good with a sweet and a savory part. Comfortable room, comfortable bed. The only flaw is the lack of bidet which for us Italians at least is a must. I would suggest varying breakfast for those staying for several nights, so as not to have to eat the same things over and over again. Otherwise everything was perfect!

We have been this Easter and we have been very happy. The place is very nice and very comfortable. Located 1 minute from Jema el Fna Square but above all the attention from Samira and Camil (I hope I wrote it correctly) has been fabulous. They are extremely friendly and have done everything to make us feel good and comfortable. They have helped us with everything. We are very grateful and of course we would return to this Riad. Highly recommended. We stayed in the Suite because there were no other rooms left. It was worth it.

Clean environment and almost familiar management. Abdul is of an almost impeccable kindness and availability. I have no meters of comparison with other Riads of Marrakech, but if I have to find some notes to do I would dwell on the "monotony" of breakfast (however abundant) and the lack of bidet, bathroom accessory not really essential for us Italians (although considered superfluous by other peoples less devoted to the hygiene of the most intimate parts...). Good experience. Would recommend it....

There are so many Riads to choose from and we feel we were so lucky to have chosen this place! Everything from staff who went out of their way to help us have a fabulous experience to location -one block from Jemaa El Fna marketplace and the safe comfortable accommodations that made us feel at home!

We stayed at this wonderful Riad in the heart of the Médina in Marrakech for our first 5 nights in Morocco. It was just fantastic! The staff were professional, friendly and so helpful- they made us feel like family! Our rooms were beautifully appointed and very comfortable! We had magic breakfasts as part of the package. We were in the heart of the old city and could walk to all major sightseeing adventures. This was the very best!

Perfect location just a 2 minutes walk to Djema El Fna. The Riad is traditionally decorated, peacefully ambiance just crossing the door, Fatima is a wonderful host who take care of you and help you to coordinate tours and provide helpful information about the city. She and the owner Mr Mohammed welcome you with Mint tea , biscuits and a good conversation. Previous reservation a chef would prepare delicious traditional Moroccan specialitys for your ( they coordinate for us a magical supper at the Riad terrase for our 15th anniversarie and Fatima surprise us with a delicious chocolate opera cake) They really feel your needs and go above and beyond
