Das Riad liegt östlich des großen Platzes, noch in der Medina. Den Djemaa el-Fna erreicht man zu Fuß in ca. 15 - 20 Minuten oder am Abend bequem zurück mit Tuktuk oder Taxi. Das Riad ist sehr hübsch eingerichtet, nicht übertrieben kitschig orientalisch. Die Betten sind fest aber nicht hart, warmes Duschwasser immer vorhanden. Tresor und TV gibt es im Zimmer nicht. Klimaanlage bzw. Heizung aber schon. Auf der Dachterrasse befinden sich Liegestühle und eine gemütlicher Sitzecke. Das Frühstück ist umfangreich, auf Bestellung gibt es auch ein sehr gutes regionales Abendessen. (Hatten wir 2 mal, eines davon sehr reichlich vom besten Couscous mit Lamm und Gemüse weltweit. Es gibt auch sehr guten Wein). Das ganze Riad ist sauber und gepflegt in italienischer Hand. Das Team ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und kocht vorzüglich.

Sehr schönes Riad mit tollem Gastgeber

Super schönes Riad. Toller und aufmerksamer Gastgeber (Michele). Sehr gepflegt und sauber. Geschmackvoll eingerichtet mit Liebe zum Detail. Tolles Frühstück. Lediglich die Lage ist am Rand der Medina nicht ganz optimal - zum Hauptplatz / Zentrum sind es dann doch 20 Min Fussweg.

Mild oase

Riad al Kadar er en fin lille oase. Drevet med charme af italieneren Michel. Ligger i udkanten af medina området hvor det er blevet mere beboelseskvarter. 10-15 fra den egentlige medina. Smuk tagterasse. Kun små skønshedsfejl - skidt bruser, lidt indelukkede værelser og lidt decentralt

Aconchegante

Fomos muito bem recebidos !Chegamos na madrugada e nos quartos já tinham biscoitos e laranjas esperando . Todo hotel é muito limpo e organizado e se ver o cuidado e atenção em cada detalhe . O café da manhã é muito farto e gostoso . Contratamos um jantar após uma visita ao deserto e foi um espetáculo! A parte super negativa da estadia , foram os passeios contratados com Moramed. O tour pela cidade:Funcinou como um motorista.Ele conduzia até os pontos históricos sem informação alguma e simplesmente deixávamos no local e marcava horário de apanhar . Não acompanhava nem explicava nada! Todos os locais de restaurantes levados por ele era de preços exorbitantes e de péssima qualidade e higiene.O segundo passeio foi a visita de 1 noite no deserto :NÃO RECOMENDO! 10 horas de viagem de carro em estrada sinuosa ,1hora e15minutos de camelo para chegar em um acampamento sem a menor estrutura. Saímos para esta aventura sem a menor informação detalhada de como seria e como deveríamos nos preparar .Pagamos por este serviço de city tour e visita ao deserto um valor bem acima do mercado e tivemos uma péssima experiência. O único ponto falho do hotel foi a indicação deste guia. Solicitamos por e-mail e nos foi indicado .Quando indicamos algo somos corresponsável com o serviço e um hotel tão primoroso e detalhista não condiz com tal serviço.

A calm and beautiful oasis of hospitality.

Marrakech hustles and bustles. There is no shortage of people seeking to take advantage of a tourist. All that ceases at the door to beautiful Riad Al Kadar. You enter and are transported. Within you find a perfect fusion of old time Moroccan style with modern European amenities. Tile and stone work are beautiful. There are roses and citrus in abundance. Rooms surround the courtyard each one spacious, well appointed with excellent bathroom and shower. Breakfasts are feasts that change a bit each day. The wonder of the Riad is your host, Michele (mee-KEH-leh) an Italian gentleman with an unsurpassed gift for hospitality. He does not know the word "no." He will fulfill your every wish. Meals, transportation, advice, but also far beyond the standard. He found us a color printed banner for a presentation and a paper shredder (don't ask). We ate in various fun Marrakech restaurants. Our best meals were prepared by Michele himself. "We don't have time to go get lunch, Michele," "don't worry" 20 minutes later we're eating a beautiful Italian pasta with bread, wine, cheese in honey, salad, snacks, the works. In Marrakech don't do anything without first asking the price. With Michele, abandon all caution and place yourself in his hands. Ask for anything, let him deliver and depend that the bill for the extras will be beyond fair and reasonable. We travel extensively and have never been treated to a higher, better yet totally affordable oasis of hospitality..

Good atmosphere, long distance

It was our first time in Marrakech with my brother. I choose this Riad because of comments on Expedia. Good decoration related to Morocco culture with italian touch (his owner is italian). Great welcome with mint tea served by a berber women. As per expedia advise us that Riad had some problems with water, they solved, and put us in three different rooms each day, this let us to know different rooms. The room in firs floor has the problem that during morning other guests stayed at the living room in front of the bedrooom talking, if you want to sleep more, that would be unconfortable. Michelle (owner) was kind, however, he could be more customer service oriented to give recommendations to first time guesses, about right prices for taxis (for example he helped us to take a taxi that charge us 50 dhr (5 euros) to go to the Medina (that was around 10 minutes walking, but in the night it's hard to find a taxi. After we find that in the villa a taxi charge 15 dhr. Other thing was that he offered us to have dinner, and we paid the more expensive dinner that we had paid in Marrakech, 20 dhr (20Euros) by person, it was beef balls with sausage, tomatoe and olives salade, orange caramelized dessert. In general we ate for 6dhr each one. My mistake was not asked him before, but I would expected to pay at most 10dhr for the dinner. Lesson learned. When you travel thinking in stay in a Riad better choose to eat on the street restaurants close to the Medina. I felt deceived

Hidden gem of Marrakesh

It was magical place. In Medina but away from the noise of Central Square. It was incredibly quite and calm place. You wanted just to stay within its walls and relax. And it wouldn't be time wasted. Service was great and food delicious. The rooms were clean and well equipped. You can find marrocan style combined with modern technology (AC) with taste and style. Truly wonderful place.

When you arrive, you feel you just arrived at a friends place, Michelle made us feel very welcome and does everything with excellence. We have never seen such a clean hotel.

Riad Al kadar

Beautiful interior, the renovation is faultless, with attention to period detail which gives the feeling of stepping back in time. Michele obviously loves his home and is a charming host. The breakfasts were delicious and varied, the cook (and her daughter) both very skilled and accommodating. The only problems were that, in March, it was a little chilly in the room at night, plus there is a mosque just across the street which has the most unmusical muezzin we have ever heard - and amplified! Woken up at 5 and again around 7, every morning. The location is in a pretty dumpy neighbourhood, full of mechanics' shops and dust roads. Also it is ONLY JUST inside the Medina and it's a good 45 mins walk to the Jamaa el Fna, not 15 as someone claimed. As a lot of road building was going on it's not a pretty or easy walk, either. We enjoyed our stay there but would find a place nearer the centre if we went back to Marrakech.

A beautiful and calm Riad

We had five days exploring Marrakech staying in the Riad al Kadar. It was the perfect option for us. A beautiful hotel on the edge of the Medina its ideal for those who want to stay a little bit away from the tourist bustle. Michele was our wonderful host ensuring that everything ran smoothly for our stay, providing us with recommendations for day trips and first hand tips on everything from buying spices to garden visits and endless supplies of mint tea! The Riad's food is delicious and beautifully presented. We especially liked the rooftop terrace for end of the day relaxation watching the sun set and the storks fly overhead. Cant wait for our next visit!
