I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, making for a comfortable experience. The staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to help. The location was perfect—quiet, yet just a short walk from the main square. However, the dining experience was a bit underwhelming with repetitive breakfast options. Overall, it was great value for money.

The hotel is located in the heart of the Medina, making it super convenient for exploring local attractions. I found the rooms to be clean and airy, and the staff went above and beyond to help me out during my stay. On the downside, the breakfast could use a bit more variety. Overall, it’s a great option for anyone looking for a friendly atmosphere and a prime location.

I stayed at this hotel and found it to be a lovely place with spacious and clean rooms. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the overall experience enjoyable. However, the location, while close to the big square, is a bit tricky to navigate through dark alleys, especially at night. The dining could also be improved, as breakfast options were somewhat limited.

Rooms

8.0

The room was nice, located on the ground floor near the common area. It was spacious, clean, and charmingly decorated, with a lovely bathroom. However, the privacy was limited due to just having a curtain.

Service

7.0

The service was friendly and helpful. The staff easily found us at the airport and drove us to the Medina, making us feel welcomed. They were sweet with my child, preparing simple lunches and chatting with her, but sometimes they would smoke in the communal room, which drifted into my room upstairs.

Location

7.0

The location was really near the big square, but it was in a quiet street that felt a bit isolated when walking through dark alleys at night. Once I got used to the little medina-maze, it became easier to navigate, and it was close to everything I wanted to see in Marrakesh.

Dining

6.0

The dining was decent but not great. Breakfast was freshly made, and while not five-star quality, it was sufficient for our needs. I appreciated the fresh orange juice every day, but there were limited options overall.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, very close to the main square and the souks, making it super convenient for sightseeing. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but on the smaller side. The staff was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to help me, which I truly appreciated. On the downside, the breakfast was okay but could use a bit more variety.
