The Riad is beautiful and the people running it are lovely. Delicious home made breakfast in the beautiful terrace. Super quiet pool in the terrace as well. We hit an enormous apartment with 2 bathrooms and full of historical details. The Medina alleyways could be intimidating at the beginning, but you get totally used to it as you go along. Ask Maria to cook you dinner you can enjoy in the terrace. Great experience

I first stayed at the property in 2017. My experience there was wonderful and so I returned 7 years later. Isham was still there and took great care of me and my friend. He walked with us when we needed to find our destination without getting lost. It’s a beautiful riad with authentic furnishings and feels like a genuine step back in time with modern service.

The staff became like family. The property is a lovely combination of traditional and contemporary Moroccan design. The rooms were comfortable, and the food delicious. Definitely will be making this our place to go when in Marrakech.

There is no doubt that Dar Darma is an excellent accommodation choice in the Medina. The staff are fabulous. As we had chosen this Riad for its pool we were very disappointed that it was being renovated. Although we were offered free cancellation, unfortunately it was too late to organise similar accommodation, and so were somewhat surprised that no reduction to reflect the non availability of this facility was offered. Having said that, it is highly recommended.

We stayed in the Red Apartment. This riad is one of the most unique and authentic places in Morocco. Tasteful decor. Makes one feel at home really. Impeccable service and staff. The riad is like a maze which makes it so very interesting. Also easy walk to the souk. There are stairs to climb so be aware.

Dar Darma is a relaxing and magical oasis in the midst of the crazy sights and activity of the city. The interiors are opulent and beautiful, and each boutique room is decorated individually. Our room was spacious, clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff is welcoming and gracious and treated us like family. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast each morning on the private terrace with gardens. I would stay here again and highly recommend it. WiFi is available in the common area.

Dar Darma had the most attentive and accommodating staff that we have seen. The location is central which is good for getting around in the city but traveling with three daughters it was sometimes difficult to navigate the streets without having to deal with the local young men. The Riad itself was great. I have to commend the staff for helping us arrange guides, drivers, and airport pickups. The staff is what made our stay wonderful. Breakfast and dinner was made available on our schedule and served in the room or on the beautiful terrace. Kids were able to cool off in the terrace pool in complete privacy.

Wonderful kind and attentive staff who made us feel like family. Beautiful suite (Mirrors) which was huge, tasteful and well appointed. Wonderful roof top terrace for relaxing and delicious abundant breakfast each day. We were pampered and well looked after and I haven't slept so well or so much in years! Thank you for a fabulous stay.

The blue room is nice, but unless you have a family you arent staying in that room. I splurged on this hotel because I thought the pictures looked beautiful but really, its dark and unkept and in a deep alley in the medina. We had a bad experience with the kids that hang out in front of it waiting for you to get lost. The thing about staying in the Medina --if youre a tourist, you need to know how to get to your riad so you need to stay in a non-shady area thats easy to get to. I loved Riad Taala 12. When I come back to Marrakech Im going to stay there again or try a riad thats closer to Jemaa El Fnaa

Arrange transportation to and from this riad with the hotel or else no matter how well equipped you are with maps and gps you are sure to get lost. After staying 4 nights at the 4 Seasons this riad was just the dose of in the medina experience we craved. The vibe Is definitely hipster meets Moroccan, with low level lighting to hide any imperfections and to keep the mood zen. Dinner on the roof is what they bring you - go with the flow as it is delicious and reasonable (around $25 per person for 3 courses). We arranged on arrival to have a bottle of wine purchased and put on ice. Cost: $30. Book the more expensive suites to get the full vibe. Recommend this riad for design conscious travelers but not for those who are uptight and cant handle stairs.

We loved Dar Darma, the overall impression of the place is design and seclusion nestled in one of the most intense cities I have ever experienced. The team are fantastic and the two main guys (the two Saids) were brilliant, always smiling, incredibly attentive and they make a mean mint tea! We started in the orange room and were lucky enough to spend our last night in the red suite... Which was incredible! We would fall asleep to the sound of the water in the courtyard and wake up to the sound of the call to prayer coming from the mosque. The team were on hand to have stiff coffee already as soon as we surfaced and they even surfaced early the morning that we were booked on a day trip. If you get a chance, arrange supper on the rooftop terrace, our first evening meal was at the Riad and it was the best meal we had the whole time we were in Marrakech!

Behind the street door sits a wonderfully atmospheric and calming interior of tall ceilings, dark furniture and beautiful suites. I stayed in the suite of mirrors and whilst some will say it is dark and not well lit it oozes character and atmosphere. The roof terrace, seating area and pool is an absolute oasis of peace and tranquility and is a welcome respite from the hurly burly of the Souks nearby. Staying in a Riad is an experience not to be missed, its personal and high on quality service from the staff, Saeed and Abdul are two of the friendliest most helpful people you are likely to encounter.Overall this is a place for a brave, confident traveller who appreciates something a bit different.

Beautifully designed with antiques and works of art, it shouts a sense of opulence and casual elegance. Breakfast was served at our own time on the beautiful terrace, with crepes, coffee, cakes or omelets, if you have wished. Said was there for us all the time to help and accommodate any request. All the stuff members always very polite and smiley, and nothing was ever a problem.The riad is fantastically clean.

Hip Moroccian vibe with a lovely staff. Location is a but further from the Soucks that I had hoped but the place is like another world. Great patio upstairs with two small pools. Just wished where was some plants downstairs for it was a bit stern. Enjoyed our stay!

The riad was attractive, spacious, conveniently located and friendly. The roof terrace was splendid and a fine place to enjoy the breakfasts. Our room, (the mirror room or something) was large and the bed was excellent. It was also warm, which cannot be said of the rest of the hotel. But the lighting was poor and it was not that well equipped for the price. Not even a box of Kleenex. Whoever books here should be sure to arrange to be collected as there is no name on the door and the narrow lanes around the area aren't often labelled.
