An oasis of calm and tranquility in the bustling heart of the Medina in Marrakesh. Zacharia, Jabel and all the friendly staff go above and beyond to provide the best experience for your stay. Ideally located for shopping in the souks and visiting tourist sites around Marrakesh. The only reason for 4 stars is because space is a premium in the Medina and this is reflected in the size of the rooms but truly enjoyed the experience.

The details here are so thought out! Everywhere you look you see a little touch of something special. We enjoyed our stay immensely and felt so rested after just one night. This place is close to a lot of shops, Le Jardin Secret, and the souks, but you don’t hear any noise from the rooms. The inner courtyard is breathtaking, and we felt an l around peaceful atmosphere. Jeber is very helpful and welcoming, and even took photos of us from the terrace! He answered all of our questions and drew a map of where to visit and the best routes to take. We definitely recommend this Riad for your next trip to Morocco!

Our oasis, home away from home, in Marrakech was the Oriental Medina Riad and Spa. A beautiful, comfortable, perfectly located place to conclude my trip to Morocco. The new manager spent time with our small group and made us feel totally welcome as he helped us to navigate the area and pointed out sites to visit. The staff were all helpful at all hours from Younes at the front desk always available to help, to Redouane and Ayoub who made sure we were taken care of all needs met and meals were just what we wanted. The chefs Hanan and Saida were able to please every palate and Aziza made sure our rooms were cleaned and had everything we could want and need. It was the perfect end to a wonderful first trip to Morocco. From the pool on the first floor to the rooftop dining, lounging area every detail spoke of welcoming comfort. My room was joyful with decor that is comfortable and exotic and a pleasure to spend time relaxing in. Thank you to all the staff for making my stay such a pleasure.

Best place for staying in the medina, not far from the centre. Really nice and familiar atmosphere, helping always if there is a problem. Breakfast is really good an the rooms are small but beaty and comfortable.

Great hotel and exceptional service. Our stay was amazing and I would rate this place better than a 5 star hotel. The staff was so friendly, courteous, and helpful. Thank you so much Redouane, Yokabb, and the rest of the staff for making us feel like a family and treating us so well. Will definitely recommend this hotel.

We were amazed when we walked in at the beauty of this riad! The hosts were welcoming and we loved the mint tea at our arrival. Everything seemed very clean and it is in a great location to see sights near by. You won’t go wrong if you stay here!

Nice little Riad with only 10 rooms. Instagramable decor. Attentive and welcoming staff including the manager, front desk men and cleaning/cooking ladies. Good breakfasts that vary every morning. Safe haven from the Medina.Tips:1. Bring earplugs and eye masks. We can hear all the noises in the Medina and in the Riad; the curtains aren’t blackout. 2. Slightly difficult to find due to the location so good to book airport transfer in advance, especially for evening arrivals. 3. Two excellent restaurants just about 50 meters away. Dar Tazi - mid range and traditionally Moroccan. Le Foundouk - up market French/Moroccan fusion with a great terrace.4. If you shop at the corner shop down the road, make sure to count the change. 5. Be very careful of the usual tricks and scams in the neighbourhood, Medina and Marrakesh. Don’t be led to any tanneries/markets/festivals etc., and watch your back in the area. Riad staff were very helpful to provide advice, navigation, tips and private transport for safety.

The stay was lovely, the staff was incredibly helpful and were able to organize anything. The gave us great advice as well. The place was even better than in the photos (also loved taking pictures here with my camera)! We had a Hammam and massage, which was an amazing experience. The location is great too, close to everything you’d need to visit within the Medina! Barely had to take a cab to anything. The place was very clean, the breakfast every morning was the best. I genuinely don’t have any point that I could imagine to be better.

Had a lovely stay at this Riad with my wife. Beautiful setting and hidden away from the main street so really nice and quiet, too.The staff (especially Younes) dealt really well with a few small issues that occurred during our stay and went out of their way to support me and my pregnant wife. Would really recommend this Riad as a place to stay in Marrakech.
