De receptie is ontzettend vriendelijk en erg behulpzaam. Ze spreken goed Engels en doen werkelijk alles om het voor je naar wens te maken. De eerste dag hadden wij een vereerde kamer toegewezen. Als excuus kregen we de rest van de week de mooiste kamers die de riad te bieden had. Het ontbijt is erg vers en uitgebreid. Locatie perfect, binnen 15 minuten lopen op het grote plein.

Our two nights in Marrakech was highlighted by this Riad! Lovely, beautiful and quiet with birds flying inside the riad. The owners were some of the best hosts we’ve met in Morocco with their genuine hospitality! They’re just very nice people! Did I mention their wonderfully made breakfast? Highly recommend Riad Tamarrakecht.

This is a very beautiful property in a good location within the Medina. The walk to the main square is reasonably straight forward. The breakfast is good. However we had some significant issues. We had a very beautiful room but the air conditioning was not working. This was important because it was extremely hot outside. We were there for three days and complained every day but the ac was not repaired. The owner came to our room and checked it and said it would be fixed but nothing happened. We knew it wasn't working because our daughter had a room on her own that was very cool. The other problem was our arrival. We were driving and needed to park outside the walled city. We were told someone would meet us at the wall entrance and tell us where to park and where to go. We were not warned that there were hustlers who would try and get us to go elsewhere and drive into the Riad and demand money from us. There was quite a bit of ugliness involved with this. Later on, someone came to pick us up for a food tour and it turned out he was a hustler too who had overheard a phone call. He supposedly took us to the car and then demanded money--but he had nothing to do with the cooking class. The Riad staff should be checking and warning its guests about these people. Often the guy who was sitting at the desk was on his cell phone and didn't even notice who was coming and going.

Informationen/Kontaktaufnahme vor der Anreise durch das Hotel. Sehr herzlicher Empfang mit Tee nach schwieriger Anreise. Intensive Betreuung mit Stadtkarte und Tipps zum Sightseeing. Schöne Architektur und Einrichtung. Hotel liegt in der Medina (Altstadt) und ist somit nicht direkt mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Parkplatz am Bab Aileen (Zugangstor zur Altstadt) zu empfehlen.

I loved staying at this Riad with my husband. Fatima was a gem and her family was as well. She went out of her way to tell us where to go, how much to pay for things and when we told her we wanted spices and tea, her mother went and got them for us so that we wouldn’t get ripped off. Breakfast was great everyday and this Riad in Marrakech helped make the trip an even better one. I highly recommend this Riad.

Our first Riad experience and the best of all during our 2+ week visit to Morocco. A lovely family run Riad. The staff was so willing to help us in every way. It is beautiful and calm. Perfect in the craziness of the Medina. Delicious breakfasts every day. Each one different. A great place to stay

Merci pour les excellents conseils de visite et les bonnes adresses ! Comptez tout de même entre 2&3 kilometres de marche dans la Medina pour acceder au differents sites (ce qui n'était vraiment pas un problème pour nous !)

Het is echt een prachtige riad op 10 a 15 minuten lopen van het centrum(prima dus)! Na een goede uitleg van de gastvrouw en wat waardevolle tips loop je zo naar het centrum. Een hapje eten in de riad is ook van harte aan te bevelen!

My friend and I stayed at this property for 5 nights (both females travelling) in September. The riad is in the old part of Marrakech which, in our opinion had more cons than pros. We would definitely suggest staying in a more popular/new area. The riad entrance looks like a residential door and you can often knock for a very long time to gain entry back into the riad. As the area itself didn't feel particularly safe, they could most definitely work on this issue; especially during evening/night. This is because we're not sure if this is an issue everywhere, but we found groups of men lingering outside shouting abuse and generally harassing us everyday. The owner herself was very nice, helpful and hospitable. The room was clean however the ground floor room can get very humid despite the AC. Local amenities aren't great - as it's an old part of the city.

Liebevoll geführtes Riad, ringhörig.

Wir haben in diesem von einer Familie geführten Riad sechs Nächte verbracht. Wir haben uns in dieser Zeit sicher und wohl gefühlt. Das Hotel ist sehr gepflegt und die Sauberkeit auf hohem Niveau. Von der Begrüssung, über die Bedienung und die Beratung hat uns Fatima gut und mit Leidenschaft betreut - besser geht es nicht. Sie hat für glutenfreies Essen gesorgt - sowohl beim sehr feinen und grosszügigen Frühstück als auch beim Essen am Silvesterabend - herzlichen Dank Fatima! Das Riad ist sehr schön und authentisch eingerichtet. Das Mobiliar und das Gebäude sind gepflegt. Das High-Light ist bestimmt die wunderschöne Dachterrassse die durch das Mobiliar und die Aussicht zum Verweilen einlädt. HIer oben ist es auch schön warm - dies im Gegensatz zum Riad selber. Die Zimmer kann man heizen, auf den Gängen und im Essbereich ist jedoch so kalt, dass man ohne warme Kleidung friert. Wir mussten beim Frühstück unsere dicken Jacken tragen - das ist schade. Was ich auch erwähnen möchte ist, dass das Riad extrem ringhörig ist. Lange in die Nacht und ab 07 Uhr ist es für Menschen die nicht einfach einschlafen und tief schlafen schwierig gut zu schlafen. Man hört Gäste die ankommen und abreisen, man hört jedes Gespräch in der Lobby, jedes Aufschliessen von Türen und das Laufen von Wasser - Isolation? Fehlanzeige! WLAN langsam Die Lage des Hotels ist aus meiner ideal. Der Weg zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten führt durch ein traditionelles Quartier. Die Leute sind nett.

She made us feel like family and welcomed us with sweet drinks, treats and a thorough orientation of the city. She offered priceless advice and always responded to us with a smile and a friendly demeanour. We couldn’t have been more happy with our accommodation and would LOVE to return again!

The interior in here are out of this world. The pools with rose petals floating in the water, the terrace, and the rooms all show the amount of work and care the owners put into the riad. The owners themselves are wonderful people as well, trying to help with everything we ask them. In a place like Marrakech, it feels good to know that you can trust your riad for recommendations. They got up early to make us breakfast at 6:30AM since we needed to leave on a tour, they explained the map of the Medina to us over and over again, we just couldn’t ask anything more!

Riad Tamarrakecht was fantastic. The hotel is conveniently located close to one of the gates to the Medina, which made it easy to find. In addition to this, they actually sent a person to meet us at the gate and guide us to the Riad. Once we arrive, they provided us with a map of the Medina and with detailed information on how to navigate through it. This made our visit to the Medina much more enjoyable. Breakfast was good and the room was comfy and spacious. We recommend Riad Tamarrakecht to anyone who wants to visit Marrakesh.

This Riad is quite simply, wonderful! Run by the dearest family, who are all so helpful and kind. There is ample room to roam and lounge, and a very lovely pool and water features that soothe the weary soul. A true oasis in the midst of the chaos that is Marrakech. Each bedroom is decorated differently (stayed in two different rooms, by choice) and was impressed by both. Great beds, linens and towels, bath products, very spacious and very good a/c. What more could you ask for?! It was hard to leave...highly recommend this Riad for a brief or long stay...would return in a heartbeat!
