Abdul was an excellent host. The Riad was well maintained and clean and the breakfast was fantastic. If you are looking for an authentic morrocean experience, this is the place to stay in the heart of the medina. It can be confusing to get to the Riad and it's dark on the walk up to Riad at night so best off staying there in a group, not on your own.

The entire team was so helpful and and accommodating to all of our needs. They assisted in travel transports, laundry, communication with excursion teams, escorting and directing to desired destinations, helping with dinner reservations, providing snacks/drinks on demand, daily room service and personal item requests were timely and most of all ensured us of room security within the road. We truly felt at home!🤗. We would love to visit again Riad Ilayka.

We absolutely loved our stay at Riad Ilayka. While we were only there for one night, the staff made us feel completely welcome and went out of their way to accommodate us. We arrived at 9 PM to check in, as we had just come off of a desert tour. The staff swiftly showed us to our room and helped us with our bags. We had to check out at noon, but our flight wasn't until later in the day so the staff stored our luggage, so we could go out and explore before our flight. The location of the riad is a little hard to get to, but I would recommend just calling the staff once you are in the general area and they will come and guide you back to the riad. All the facilities were just perfect, and the riad itself is beautiful. It is probably the best hotel we've stayed at and we will likely be coming back to stay, if we ever came back to Morocco. We wanted to give a special shout out to the night manager (I believe his name is Mohab, but please forgive me if I'm wrong). He was very warm, inviting, helpful and generally just made our short stay extremely pleasant. Thank you, Nadia and the rest of the team at Riad Ilayka for an unforgettable hotel experience!

We spent three wonderful nights at Riad Ilayka and absolutely loved it. The riad is a beautiful historic home tucked away in the Medina — super quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk to everything. Our room was huge, and the bathroom was enormous with the most amazing Moroccan tile work. Every detail made us feel like royal guests! The staff were so kind, gracious, and spoke great English. We felt completely safe and comfortable the entire time. Breakfast on the patio was a lovely way to start each day. It’s no surprise this place is often fully booked — we feel very lucky we managed to get a room.

Great Place to be, I was supposed to be there in 2023 around the time of the earthquake, end up going to Tanger but we was able to come this time. Place is charming and inviting, you will feel like it’s your home away from home. Marrakesh is a cacophony of sounds and voices and but the people are still the best I met. You won’t regret!

Very attentive staff, especially Abdul who was very helpful. The property and the rooms were beautiful. Location was convenient and only 10 minutes walk away from the main square, although the path to the main square can be a bit difficult to navigate - luckily Abdul kindly showed us the way so we didn’t get lost. Overall a great experience and highly recommended.
