nice place to stay

Nice atmosphere, lovely rooftop terrace

Nice location, but was hard to find. I booked an room with twin bed and ac on expedia, but got an small room without ac. This was very hard to endure on the first day when it was 30 degrees. When asked to staff they told me all other rooms were booked for the first day, they offered me swap to other room, but that would be unneccesary because i had to leave late on the last day (2 day stay). Still strangely they asked me to pay for the water and printing (paper fly ticket). Overall decent location, with strange advertisement on expedia. Bit dissapointed.

Terrible experience—this hotel was apparently overbooked, so they sent us to another tiny hotel, charging us same high price. Credit card machine didn’t work and they demanded we pay the entire bill upfront in cash. Worst check-in experience I’ve ever had, this place is a complete rip-off. Now I’ll try to get some money back through Expedia.

Central location, in the heart of the old city. 10mins walk from main old city square. However property is old and cramped. More like 2 star standard

Some of the outdoor furniture was shabby and outdoor space did not feel very relaxing. Nowhere to get a drink in the road - both would have been greatly appreciated after the hustle and bustle outside. Staff were very attentive and helpful, with service at breakfast and daily room cleaning deserving of a special mention. It was in the perfect location close to lots of restaurants. Not sure I would book the trips again as we were the only people in the groups!

Riad Africa was fully booked. Stayed in a sister hotel Riad explore. Very well looked after

It’s a 20 minute walk to Jemaa El Fnaa and 2 minute walk to Tinsmith Square. Google map doesn’t give the accurate location. It’s better to have the property pick you up.

Good central location, nice sized room, friendly and helpful staff.

We felt comfortable and safe at Riad Africa. The location is fantastic and staff were very friendly.

Staying in this riad was such a unique experience and we loved our stay. Check-in was quick and easy and the staff was very friendly. The room was nice and clean and we really enjoyed the pool. It was pretty chilly, but we were visiting in August so it was a nice relief from the hot day. Breakfast in the morning was delicious. We also had our 8 year old with us and felt like this was a family friendly accomodation.

This place is an oasis in the centre of the ville and the staff is amazing! The property is located in the heart of Marrakesh, in the middle of busy small market streets, but once you are inside you feel completely isolated of this vibrant market. It is like entering an oasis in the middle of the dessert. Rooms are clean and nice, air condition, private bathroom. It includes a delicious breakfast in the terrace of the riad. But the best of all is the staff. Very friendly, helpful and honest. We left behind a small bag with souvenirs, called them, and they sent us the bag to Tangier where we picked it up two days later. It was an extra mile for us. Thank you for the amazing time

Overall we really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect (less than a 15 min walk to many Marrakech attractions) and the building was spotless and beautiful. I think the room we'd reserved was double booked because we were placed in a smaller room the first night, but were subsequently upgraded to a junior suit the second night. The staff were very helpful and did everything they could to improve our stay, including finding a room that was a bit more accessible for my mobility issues.

Excellent service from Issam and the Team!

The location is great. Close to everything in the Medina area. Accommodations are great. Breakfast has a lot of selection. Ask for an omelette and they will make you just eggs. But then you can add meat and cheese from Buffett to fill it up. A big wind and rain storm came through during my stay and the Riad weathered it well. WiFi did not work the first day, but worked after that. Not super fast, but was able to get a few basic things done. I arrived at night, and it was a little difficult to find. Ignore the references in their directions (telecom sign and glass shop). I did not see those. But otherwise their directions are spot on. Your first left is a bigger alley/street at about 4m wide. It is the first alley. Make the left there and follow the rest of the directions. The only negative might be the hot water in the shower of my room. Eventually it would get hot, but it was just a trickle of water. It was not a shower head issue, as on cold it had good pressure. Leave your key when you leave if you want to have it cleaned. There was a television in the room, but I could not get any channels (I did not try very hard to get it to work. I also did not ask for help).

Great experience. Location in Medina near Mellah was fantastic. Riad has real character and is well maintained. Terrace is very comfortable for relaxing. Worth doing the trip to the Casbah in the Atlas Mountains and also having a treatment in the Hamam at the Riad. Staff were extremely helpful (especially Issem) - not at all pushy but willing to make suggestions and discuss what suits. Overall, a really enjoyable trip.

I liked everything about it, it was a special experience

Property manager s difficult to access right in the heart of old Medina! Streets are unpacked making it difficult to roll suitcase. The rooms were unaired and smelled terrible so had to move to 3 different rooms! No hot water, and my third night no heat so I literally froze. Rasheed who seemed to be the only handyman, concierge cook, cleaner... tried to fix the heater for over 20 minutes He just gave up in the end and left me to freeze till morning. Faisal was the property manager was very apologetic but was there daytime. No one during the night hours. I stayed 2 nights then went to Chefcewan, and they kept my suitcase for me. The third night as I described above was a disaster and I had to book another hotel and leave. Very disappointing indeed!

Right from the start my trip started out excellent being picked up on time from the airport by a very friendly driver. The Riad is located in a very central location making it easy to walk out into the main square. I felt very welcomed into the property by the very helpful staff, especially Redouan who was very attentive whenever I needed any help or had any questions. Travelling with COVID meant I was the only guest staying but it was made very easy, everything was kept very clean and as safe as possible.

I was for the second time Marrakech, first time in Riad Africa.I was very much surprised, when I entered the room; it was depressingly small and had no mini bar and free bottle of water, as promised by Hotels.com publication.I came late on the evening, so I accepted it.The first good surprise next morning was Breakfast: the Continental Breakfast was actually the English one with everything and with fried eggs or omellettes. The juice and coffee were very good.I had - after Breakfast - the talk to Hotel Manager, Mr. Redone, who is wonderful person, very kind and a real proffessional, always prepared to help.He understood I couldn't stay in such small room and he upgraded me to the much better one, where I could really breathe. The room had small fridge, safe, tea/coffee facility and I also got the free water.So, because of Mr. Redone I really enjoyed my staying in Riad Africa. Each room has its name and mine was Okavango.The price, however, is not very low (about 57 euros, including good Breakfast and all taxes).I am staying again in Riad Africa, if I come back to Marrakech.This "if" is because of Marrakech traffic system. The narrow shoppong streets should be for pedestrians only, but there are so many motors, small cars and vehicles with different animals, that it is very dangerous for shoppers, as they are driving as if they are crazy, men, women,young and older ones.They have all priorities on these narrow streets and I've been hit by them several times.The air isbad.

Best trip amazing hotel!

The service and location were fine. The visit was marred by heavy smoking in the central area that filled the adjacent rooms, my family members left their room to sleep elsewhere. I did not have this issue at the Riads we have stayed at.

The riad is beautiful but my room was unexpected small. You basically open the door then jump onto thr bed. However, there is all you need.

A nice friendly and extremely well run Riad. Located 5 minutes walk from the main market. The Riad also offer personalised trips to the Atlas Mountains as well as other day trips which can be booked in advance. They also have a spa/hamman which is a must! They did every they could to look after us. Abdul on reception is an absolute asset. We will definitely go back.

My experience with Riad Africa was simply amazing! The staff provided superb service--even going out of their way to prepare breakfast bags for the nine of us to takeaway early morning on our day trip to Casablanca/Rabat. They were also very friendly, genuine, and caring. The facility is a bit small, but a gem inside the gates of Medina. Water pressure esp. for shower was not that great, but workable. We also didnt have any issues with securing our valuables in the safe provided.All in all, I would definitely stay at Riad Africa again and highly recommend it for your trip.Thank you Riad Africa!
