"The riad is located in the northern part of the Medina with main sights accessible by foot. It’s a great, rather quiet escape in the busy city, with amazing staff & exceptional service. It’s beautiful, clean and – compared to other hotels we stayed at in marrakech – great value for money. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a central, quiet and still authentic place to stay in marrakech."
