The staff were amazing, especially Hajar, who was super kind to my family. The location is perfect, quiet yet close to the main square. Our Superior Triple Room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was good, featuring Moroccan pastries. 😊

The rooftop terrace provided a lovely space for relaxation.
Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi connection was unreliable and slow, making it hard to stay connected. Also, the lack of air conditioning in the room was quite disappointing and contributed to an uncomfortable stay. Finally, we found the breakfast options to be limited and repetitive, which was underwhelming for our longer visit.

The welcoming atmosphere created by the staff, particularly the manager, set a positive tone for my stay, featuring traditional Moroccan tea that made for a warm arrival. The breakfast selection was impressive, especially the Moroccan pastries that enhanced the experience. However, the room felt somewhat dark and the bed uncomfortable, which detracted from the overall comfort. Additionally, the area surrounding the accommodation was not as clean as expected, and reaching the location through narrow alleys can be unsettling.

Yo, this place was dope! The staff? Super chill, especially Hajar—always had a smile and so helpful. The breakfasts? Pure magic with those Moroccan pastries. Location was spot on—close enough to the square but still quiet at night. Felt real cozy in our Deluxe King Room. Just wish the Wi-Fi was more reliable, ya know?

Solid selection for a date night in Marrakesh with value for money. Mariam went above and beyond to accommodate us during our stay. Make sure to keep your phone handy for directions, as it's a bit tricky to find.

good service but some room issues
The staff were attentive and respectful throughout my three-night stay. Daily cleaning and fresh towels were a thoughtful touch. The location was convenient, just a short walk from the main square, allowing for easy access without the noise of the nightlife. Also, the rooftop terrace provided a lovely space for relaxation.
However, the room felt a bit dark, which affected my overall comfort.
