Sehr schönes Riad in der perfekten Location in der Medina. Leider haben ein paar Buchungen vor Ort über das Hotel nicht funktioniert (Restaurants & Shuttle zum Flughafen) und die Massage ist auch nicht zu empfehlen (stattdessen lieber das Black Soap Treatment machen), aber ansonsten waren wir sehr glücklich dort & wurden sehr herzlich empfangen.

Wonderful riad, perfectly located in the medina. Close to everything, including the souks and some very good restaurants. The location itself however is quiet and an oasis of peace. The staff will go out of their way to make you feel at home. Special thanks to Marwan!!

Beautiful Riad old Medina Marrakech
Lovely people and Riad with mosaics and art art every turn. I most enjoyed the rooftop terrace for meals and watching sunrise and sunset listening to the haunting call to prayer from nearby mosques. Highly recommend. They also have a private hamam and massage on site. Mimi, manager was wonderful and accommodating as was entire staff...like home away from home.

Riad molto bello, ben curato, camera pulitissima, personale molto gentile e disponibile . Consiglio a chi prenota per la prima volta alla Medina di abbinare il trasferimento all’hotel in quanto il taxi ti lascia al di fuori della zona pedonale e trovarlo non è stato semplice .

Comfortable riad! The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay. Nice fireplace at night and breakfast in the morning. Note: like many other riads, it is not accessible by car and if you're taking a taxi from the train station, you'll need to direct the driver to drop you off near Dar El Bacha. From there, it's a short walk through the souk (safe but watch out for the motorcycles!). Thank you for the hospitality!

Riad mit Macken
Das Riad Dar Saad liegt sehr zentral in der Medina. Der Zustand des Hauses ist mäßig bis schludrig. Eine Renovierung täte dem Hause gut. Die Zimmer sind originell jedoch auch hier wäre etwas mehr Liebe fürs Detail wünschenswert. Für das Frühstück sollte man etwas mehr Zeit einkalkulieren, denn alles dauert.

Dobbeltbooking
Vi havde forudbestilt og forudbetalt en juniorsuite på Riad Dar Saad. Da vi ankom, fik vi imidlertid at vide, at der ikke var noget værelse til os. Mailen fra Hotels.com var angiveligt havnet i hotellets spamfilter, og de havde derfor ikke set den.
Efter halvanden times diskussion, en række telefonsamtaler og meget sparsom information fandt vi selv et værelse på et nærliggende riad. Riad Dar Saad acceptere modvilligt at betale for dette værelse.

Charming riad in a good location.
We enjoyed our stay at this riad. The staff is very friendly and very accommodating. Restaurant recommendations were great. The interiors are very nice and the architectural details are charming. Our room was large with high ceilings and grat columns and light fixtures. Sadly, the bed is not very comfortable and the linens felt aged and cheap. The towels are also small and have seen better days. They are air dried on the room so they smell like the smoke from the outside smoke from cooking fires and fires to heat homes. The location is good but I wish they had better signage to first locate it. The breakfast is a very simple continental style set-up. We would stay here again.

central location; helpful staff
Clean facility with helpful staff and central location make this an excellent choice for an introductory visit to Marrakech. Porter met our taxi at entrance to Medina and walked us to the riad. Rooftop terrace a pleasant space for relaxing after a day of exploration.

Beautiful, relaxing, excellent service.
Amazing riad, great location just minutes from Jama fna, lots of good shops and restaurants nearby. Nothing beats being in the old part of a winding medina in Marrakesh, we loved it! The staff is AMAZING! Two young Berber men helped us throughout our stay - we were humbled by their kindness and eagerness to help. My two young children came with us on this trip. While kids can be noisy (especially in a quiet riad where the sound echos), everyone was understanding and gracious during or stay. We highly recommend this riad.

Riad très agréable au plein cœur de la Médina
Magnifique séjour dans une ville très animée avec un climat très agréable en cette saison (30° à fin octobre)
La terrasse du Riad permet de jouir pleinement de ce climat et de pouvoir prendre le petit déjeuner dans'des conditions optimales
Beaucoup trop de sollicitations dans les souks viennent un peu gâcher le plaisir
Excursions diverses et variées possibles

Hidden gem in Marrakech
We loved every minute of our stay in the Riad :)
They are very helpful and we received a very warm welcome
We feel safe in the neighbourhood and it's not far from the key tourist places yet it's set in a very quiet and neighbourhood friendly place.
Abdul was ready to help anytime of the day. Because we stayed for only 2 days, we decided that we'll wake up (very) early on the second day and was surprised to see Abdul already awake and ready to assist us.
My boyfriend and I will definitely come back and decided that we'll stay on the same hotel :)
Highly recommended!

Our stay was amazing. The riad was beautiful inside. The meals were superb. Breakfast was the highlight of the day. The staff was so helpful and friendly. They were so helpful for everything. The location was perfect to stay in the Medina as it was walking distance to the Square, Ben Youseff and best market vendors.

Riad agréable
Riad très agréable, personnel très sympathique et très serviable.
Toutefois les dimensions semblent exagérées dans les photos.
Parfait pour un séjour tranquille dans un Riad entre tradition et modernité avec simplicité.

Ontzettend romantisch, midden in de Medina
Prima verblijf. Personeel heel lief en netjes! Prima lokatie, midden in de Medina.
Alleen het zwembad mag zijn naam niet hebben, is meer een fontein
Heerlijk om op het dak te ontbijten! Zeker aan te raden!!!
Minder geschikt voor kleine kinderen!
