Marrakech hotellit lähellä El Badi Palace

Plussat: This was a beautiful Riad, with large grounds! We were surprised by the two pools and and our room on the roof was perfect. We had a stunning view of the sunset in the city and equally with the sun rise. This is a great Riad and me and my girlfriend would highly recommend.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Just got back from a weekend in the city. The riad was in a great spot - central and easy to get to the sights but quiet. We slept really well though the morning call to prayers was easily heard! Lovely terraces and views across the city too. The staff were excellent. Marouan met us from the taxi and walked us to the riad. He drew us an excellent map and gave lots of helpful advice. Other colleagues also gave useful information and lots of local tips. We particularly appreciated help printing our airline boarding cards - we hadn't been advised by our airline that this would be necessary. We travelled with friends and had two rooms. Both were lovely and very clean. The air conditioning would be necessary in the summer but also gave the rooms a welcome warming in the mornings and evenings. Breakfast was very pleasant with lovely juice and pastries. We really appreciated the fresh fruit and delicious yogurt. On our final day, we had to leave very early and were really grateful to be able to have coffee and juice to get us on our way.

Miinukset: Only really minor complaints: tea and coffee at breakfast could have been hotter; we hadn't realised there was a city tax - not the riad's fault.

Plussat: I will definitley recommend this riad, it is very traditional and very beautiful. The people that work there are the most amazing people I have ever met, they were very friendly and they helped us with discovering Marrakech. Moreover, it is very clean and the breakfast was very good. Staying in this riad will make your trip complete.

Miinukset: The riad was hard to find, I recommend to use the transfer the riad offers.

Plussat: This property is a real hidden gem. It was an oasis of calm and tranquility and a real pleasure to return to after a day venturing into the souks and sightseeing. The staff couldn’t do enough for you and were always smiling. The property itself is decorated to a high standard it had a wonderful style and sophistication. I will be recommending a stay here to all of my friends and family and will definitely be back one day.

Plussat: Excellent place. Everyone very friendly and professional. Would definitely stay again. Highly recommend. Nothing was too much trouble. 5 stars.

Plussat: The staff were very helpful and extremely friendly. Mustafa, Khalid and Marwan could not do enough for us and made sure we had everything we needed. They really made us feel very welcome in Marrakech and were anxious that we enjoy our visit.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect. The only thing I would have preferred is a room on a lower floor.

Plussat: The breakfast was fresh and delicious every day. The view from the roof terrace was beautiful, you could see the entire city and the surrounding Atlas mountains. The staff was consistently helpful and courteous. They were interested in what we had done that day and excited to help us plan meals.

Plussat: The Riad is absolutely gorgeous. Patrick and his staff were exceptional in there welcome and they couldn't do enough for us to make our a stay truly memorable. Ideal location to explore Marrakech. Close enough to explore all areas by foot. Highly Recommend!!

Miinukset: There was nothing I didnt like.

Plussat: Breakfast was very good. Tasty tea. Friendly and helpful personal. Everything was excelent. Accomodation was amazing. Thank you very much.

Plussat: Its an amazing oasis in the middle of the chaotic medina. Best place for relax with your couple or family after a long day of sightseeing. Alexandra is the best host you can ask for, she will recommend you all the best places to go and see and will make your stay in Marrakech as memorable as it could be. Thanks for everything. Carlos & Sofia

Plussat: Was such a great experience to stay in the Riad Emberiza Sahari. Big thanks to Alexandra for implementing perfection and style in every single corner. Stuff, breakfast, design...Everything about this place is just magical. Cannot wait to come back! Thank you Alexandra for that experience! Regina & Kriss

Plussat: The decoration

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: It was beautiful.

Plussat: The Riad is situated in a remarkably quiet alleyway just a few metres from a small parking lot so no problems with luggage. The only outward indication of its presence is a small plaque on the front door which opens to reveal a spacious courtyard, its pool, orange trees and a fountain. Alexandra offered us the warmest of warm welcomes and was a mine of information throughout our stay about what do and useful tips, such as how to avoid queuing. Although away from the most bustling part of the Medina, the Riad is within very easy pedestrian access of the main parts of interest - of course avoiding the motorbikes and donkey-drawn carts with which you share the alleys. Breakfasts around the pool were generous and, despite the huge number of restaurants in the city, we can strongly recommend an evening meal cooked by the Riad's own chef. The nearby mosque is beautiful and well worth a visit - if only to see where the closest dawn call to prayers comes from. Be reassured that it hardly disturbs your slumbers.

Miinukset: Nothing to note here

Plussat: I love the Riad. Upon my arrival I was welcomed by Alexandra, the Australian owner, an elegant and smiling lady. While having the traditional tea and pastries Alexandra gave me a thorough brief on what I could do according to my preferences: the Dar El Bacha museum "des confluences", part of the Glaoui's former palace and the museum of contemporary African art... Stayed in the Elisabeth Rose room, beautifully appointed with a lovely bathroom. Seats on the veranda overlooking the patio with its pool and trees. Plants and flowers everywhere. On the roof terrace many different spots where to relax and admire the whole medina and the mountains. There is an excellent chef, Naoufel, who prepared a delicious dinner. The whole staff is very professional, pleasant and helpful. Had a good and relaxing experience in an immaculate boutique hotel which is well run and tastefully furnished. Great style!

Plussat: Alexandra is a wonderful host, who restorated and decoreted the Riad. Every detail was amazing. It is close enough to the Souks, but away from the chaos and noise. Breakfast, tablewares, music and the terrace... all remarkable.

Plussat: Great service. The host Alexandra did everything to make the guests feel warmly welcomed. Super information about the place and sights. Lovely breakfast in a delicious setting. Everything beautiful and tasteful. Highly recommended.

Plussat: Stately hotel steeped in local design and with all amenities

Plussat: The location of the hotel is ideal! The property is lovely from the inside, the pool in the courtyard makes quite a statement and sitting but the pool or by the fireplace is peaceful and inviting. We never felt like it was over crowded in this area, though the rooftop pool was full and seemed to be where the kids hung out. (Nice to have the serenity of the courtyard pool!!_ The breakfast room is plush and comfortable and there is enough variation in foods but the spread is not as sumptuous as in other 5 star hotels. The junior suite is spacious, the bed is quite hard (though we like that) and the linens, etc are crisp and fresh. The bathroom is also very spacious and pretty though there was some paint chipping at the edges and the woodwork was a bit dirty (Again, not 5 star standards).Shower is roomy and rainforest shower head was powerful. We didn’t use the bathtub, but it is nice to have the option of a bath. Before we came I had some correspondence with the hotel which was professionally handled and response was quick. I appreciated that very much.

Miinukset: The spa was an awful experience, we felt we were being rushed through the Hammam experience we booked. Completely unceremonious!!! The staff was unfriendly, did not explain anything unless we asked and even then they were curt with their replies (We speak English and French, so it was not a language problem.) In general the spa staff seemed totally disinterested in their jobs and just wanted to push us in and out quickly. I would have complained directly but I didn’t want to get more upset than I was as we were only there for 4 nights, so I let it go and we tried to laugh about how terrible it was. But, I would not suggest paying the high price of the spa treatments - perhaps try another hotel or Hammam? The hotel lobby looks a little worn though the flower arrangements are lovely. The brown wooden furniture in our junior suite was also somewhat worn and old looking. The patio furniture was rusting and the cushions stained. The fountain on our terrace did not work, unfortunately, and the tiles were quite chipped. So, although we had a lovely stay, there are things about this hotel which do not live up to a 5 star rating and the high price tag that comes with those stars. I feel we paid 5 star and only got 4 star.

Plussat: We received a serious 2 step upgrade: to a full suite with direct rooftop pool acces. Very nice indeed: made the price more like really worth it.

Miinukset: only one thing, and quite common in Morocco: during checkout, the proposed bill on the creditcard was in Euros.. With a very bad rate applied. This is below the belt, and not what I expect from a top 5-star hotel!

Plussat: For Marrakesh, the location of this hotel doesn't get any better. It is right around the corner from the bustle of the square and easy to get around anywhere. The hotel itself is really well designed, with great architecture and style that fits with the region. The rooms are very nice, and there are two swimming pools, one of which is heated and on the roof patio. There are 3 or 4 different places to eat at (although the food choices are mostly similar). Overall a great hotel!

Miinukset: Not much! The mattress are very hard, so sleeping here more than 2 nights would have been difficult. Otherwise everything else was great!

Plussat: Lovely location and gardens for the full experience of Marrakech

Miinukset: The Spa is far too over priced

Plussat: The property is delightful converted palace very Moroccan. Perfect quiet location 5mins from main square Jemma al Fna 2 swimming pools one heated on the top terrace with views across the city good food and 3 restaurants helpful reception and door staff we spent 5 nights and were upgraded to a great suite

Miinukset: It was quite busy and at certain times the staff got rushed and might forget requests from guests. But generally very nice hotel and staff Not cheap though

Plussat: It is a fantastic hotel with the best straff, beutifuel rooms, a lovley garden and beutifuel spa - i love everything here. And the location is perfect - in the herat of everything.

Plussat: The restaurants are nice and the food is delicious. The staff is kind and the location is perfect

Miinukset: The staff was disorganized and dishonest. They strung us along for several hours about attempts to fix the AC in our room only to finally admit there was no AC in the hotel in February (despite being a warm and muggy night) after we confronted them with the fact that every room had its windows open.

Plussat: The staff was great. Decor was nice.

Miinukset: The location is a bit tricky getting out of.

Plussat: Very clean, beautiful place. We got tasty mint tea and some sweets upon our arrival. Breakfast was delicious. The biggest surprise was dinner served by the Riad, we chose meat Tajin and chicken Tangija and those were the best dishes we had in Morocco! Thank you!

Plussat: 1: Staff are VERY attentive. Abdul is the man. He will make you feel like Marrakesch is your home. If he can upgrade you, he will. He does everything to make sure you're happy. 2: If Medina is what you are trying to experience, this location is the best as it takes you from the top, and you'll walk all the way through. Many great restaurants nearby. Also an authentic street market where locals go to everyday. You'll have the full experience of Medina. 3: This Riad will surprise you when you open the doors. Roof top Terrace & Pool. I still remember the lovely Orange Cinnamon aroma <3 4: You will get a big enough breakfast to last you throughout your day activities: Coffee, Orange Juice, Crunchy baguette, Chocolate Croissants to name a few.. 5: Rooms are good for a good night's rest, and even better for a midday nap to gear up for a full night.

Miinukset: Everything with this Riad was GREAT. It's only SOME of the locals make it difficult to feel safe there for tourists. But the guys at this Riad corrects anyone that harasses their guests. I've seen them protect their guests (myself included), so that's nothing to worry about.

Plussat: The staff were fantastic, and made us feel very welcome. Khalid was great and really helped us get the most out of our first visit to Marrakech - he told us of an app we could use to help us with directions, booked a camel ride for us as well as airport transfers. The location was good, only a 15 minute walk to Jemaa El Fnaa, but down a side street which was nice and quiet. The room was lovely and the riad had nice decor. We also enjoyed having breakfast on the roof. Would definitely recommend Riad Awatif 36 to anyone visiting Marrakech, and would stay again!

Miinukset: Everything was lovely, I can think of no complaints.

Plussat: Abdul was very helpful, wouldn’t be satisfied with out his help managing the trip

Plussat: We loved our trip to Morocco, we stayed/visited 6 cities; Marrakesh was beautiful and we had a great experience as i imagined it would be. Riad Awatif is in a great location within the Medina so we submersed with the locals but not too far away from the Jemma Al Fna. The Riad was clean, had beautiful decor, our room was spacious (for the 2 of us) the breakfast was delicious and the staff was kind, professional and accommodated our needs. I can't remember all of their names but each of them definitely made us feel like we were at home, they even made sure we knew the directions to our destination and gave us a cell phone to call them if we got lost or needed them to translate to another local. I'll definitely be visiting Morocco again and I would stay here again!

Miinukset: I have no complaints.

Plussat: The staff working in the riad is extremely helpful and super nice. The riad's location is just perfect - only a few minutes from the main square, which is a great advantage because the area is much quieter.

Plussat: I can not express how wonderful my stay was at the Riad - amazing place and outstanding staff

Plussat: very friendly and helpful staff, great location

Plussat: Please refer to the part where I don't like.

Miinukset: I don't like this hotel at all is I just cannot find anything I don't like. Fabulous service, fabulous staff, fabulous devices and utilities and unreasonable effective price.

Plussat: Söimme illallisen, joka oli erinomainen ja edullinen. Aamiaiset oli hyvin tehty. Henkilökunta oli mukavaa ja avuliaita.

Plussat: Superb location in the old town near Jamaa el Fna. Very authentic experience with 8 unique rooms, roof top terrace and an atrium with birds chirping and open view to the sky. But above all, the wonderful service from our two hosts, Ali and Ismail. They really went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable and our Marrakech experience as wonderful as possible. They helped us book airport transfer, private guide, and hammam. Everything top notch!

Miinukset: Not much. The shower in one of our rooms could have been adjusted and some fresh fruit could have been added to our breakfast, but these are small details. Nothing to take away from the overall wonderful experience.

Plussat: Very attentive staff. Perfect location in a beautiful small street. Nice old Riad.

Miinukset: The Interieur is a bit worn down.

Plussat: Good breakfast and help staff

Miinukset: Poor shower fixtures

Plussat: The location, staff and breakfast were superb

Miinukset: The room was too hot and the air condition was off. They insisted not to switch on the AC although my reservation was including AC. They changed my room for a cooler one but it was bad and low condition. If you want to open the window for fresh and cool air all the noise from outside comes in

Plussat: Good location, nice breakfast. Everything was good

Plussat: The rooftop bar was nice

Miinukset: The shower didn't work well and the head wasn't secure on the bar so we had to hold it

Plussat: The location, the staff and the food were outstanding and over expectation

Miinukset: Outdated rooms and bathrooms (weak maintenance and aged rooms) and very weak air conditioning and small rooms.

Plussat: Breakfast was excellent. Location also excellent.

Miinukset: Swimming pool shaded most of day, so was very cold to swim in

Plussat: the only downside was a freezing pool and it really was disappointing not being able to have a swim

Plussat: Location wise it's on really good location.

Miinukset: I think it not worth your money. I complained about air conditioning is not working and they said it off season and we cant turn on for single room. They advised us to open windows to settle down room temperature but there is so much noise you could hear aircraft takeoff from the hotel. In terms of food we just had breakfast there and I would rate as average.
