El riad es en casa típica de Marruecos, excelente atención por parte del gerente, delicioso el desayuno, las camas súper cómodas, hermoso decorado, muy bonito. Hay q tener en cuenta q solo se accesa a pie, y hay mucho comercio afuera.

Gorgeous, unique hotel with amazing host

What a gorgeous, unique hotel with the most amazing host! Staying in a riad (translated as "mini-palace") meant we stayed in the medina (old city), which was fascinating, with its twisty streets and right next to the souk (Moroccan market). The hotel owner, Rafik, could not have been a better host. He showed us around, and even made herbal tea for my cough. One tip: call or email ahead to ask the hotel to send a cab to the airport so that you can find your way there.

Ottima soluzione

Riad molto tranquillo e confortevole, al suo interno scompare la vita caotica della strade che lo circondano e il riposo è garantito. E' in una posizione defilata che consente di raggiungere a piedi in 10 minuti sia la piazza principale al centro della Medina sia la città nuova fuori dalle mura.

Heel erg lokaal en een prima sfeer

Het is een fijn verblijf,alleen is het erg moeilijk te vinden. Taxi's en Tuk Tuk's hebben er ook een probleem mee. Daarom zijn we vanaf het vliegveld door een taxi-chauffeur inde verkeerde wijk afgezet tegen een absurde hoge prijs

Experience Marrakech riad

If you are looking for some authentic experience of staying in a Raid then a good choice. Otherwise stick to the regular hotels if you want all the typical creature comforts.

Riad de cuento

Mohamed, el dueño del Riad,nos recibió en la entrada de La Medina y nos acompaño al Riad. Es precioso, igual que en las fotos. Después de un largo viaje agradecimos mucho que nos invitase a un te a la menta. Le preguntamos por un restaurante para cenar porque ya era muy tarde y nos acompaño amablemente. Limpieza 10. El desayuno muy abundante y todo muy bueno. Cenamos una noche allí y nos hizo una cena estupenda típica Marroquí. En fin, un viaje estupendo y un Riad al que volveremos.

Three nights short city break

Small but far more comfortable than any other big hotel. Excellent location with all major attractions at walking distance. We arrived at about midnight when outside of the hotel looked deserted however in the morning it was an entirely different atmosphere. Though entrance to the hotel is through a narrow street about 80 - 100 meters off one of the main road but even that narrow street is very busy and lively during day time. Once inside the secure entrance of the hotel it is a very friendly and homely environment. Very clean, tidy, calm and quiet. Spacious rooms. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Specially Mohammed and Rafique are there day and night to help and to guide. Hotel management is always willing to make and serve dinners as per your choice. Definitely Riad Bahja will be our first choice if we have chance to visit Morocco again. We will highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

Sauberes Hotel in guter Lage

Wir haben für ein paar Tage im Riad Bahja gewohnt, um Marrakesch zu erkunden. Das einzige Problem besteht darin, das Riad zu finden, aber das trifft sicherlich auch auf andere Riads zu. Die Umgebung ist ein Ausläufer des großen Souks, daher weniger touristisch, trotzdem sehr sehenswert. Ins Zentrum läuft man ca. 5-10 Minuten. Ums kurz zu machen: Frühstück, Freundlichkeit und Sauberkeit - alles top!

UN accueil excellent, un personnel dévoué, chambres très propres. Je recommande ce magnifique riad authentique dans la médina qui nous replonge au siècle passé. Merci à tous.
