Riad Des Etoiles

“Very friendly and helpful staff., awesome location in a quiet area of the medina and very comfortable room.”

“If you’re looking for an authentic Riad, in a good location, with the most friendly, helpful and welcoming staff, look no further. We booked a taxi from the airport through the Riad before we arrived which I would absolutely recommend doing. Cost 15 euros. The driver rang the Riad manager on our arrival and he came and met us. The Riad is situated down a couple of pedestrianised streets and we certainly wouldn’t have found it had we not been accompanied by Soufiane. He was extremely informative, nothing was too much and despite our late arrival, we were welcomed with a pot of the most delicious mint tea (you must try it!). The Riad is exceptionally clean and traditionally decorated. The roof top terrace is a welcome escape and we managed a few hours of sun bathing up there, as well as taking breakfast up there each day. The Riad breakfast is perfect. We were served pancakes, fresh bread (Moroccan bread is so tasty), yoghurt with jam, honey and butter. To drink, we had a pot of coffee and a pot of mint tea. Our room was cleaned each day. We couldn’t have asked for more. We are so pleased we chose to stay in a Riad rather than a hotel. We really feel like we sampled Moroccan life. The Riad is a short walk (max 10 mins) from the Badi palace. A slightly longer walk takes you to the Bahia palace. We spent 2 days exploring the Medina on foot and took in all the sights. The Riad is in a great location in the Medina, being 20 minutes from the Djeema FNA square. Would thoroughly recommend this Riad. The hosts are simply the best!”

“I loved it! The Riad is super clean, the bedrooms are comfortable and spacious, both receptionists are super nice and willing to help you. Since the day we arrived, one of them gave us a map and explained us everything related to Marrakech, I don’t remember his name but he’s amazing. The terrace and the pool are really nice to chill. The breakfast is traditional Moroccan and they serve it at the time you need. I would totally come back and recommend it to my friends and family.”

“Everything was perfect! The location is very good, the guys working in the riad are excellent, especially Seyfan!”

“We arrived late and left early the next morning, but would have liked to have stayed longer! The member of staff who was working nights was so friendly, hospitable and helpful. We also loved the decor and the ambience of the Riad and it was great value for money! I would stay here for longer next time I come to Marrakesh.”
