Amazing property and staff! They are the best in customer service and made us feel really welcomed. We got there really late and they still took the time to serve us tea and cookies. Amazing rooms and food. We got a couple of massages and an amazing dinner. The staff goes above and beyond! This was a family trip and they made all the necessary Accomodations for us to feel comfortable and welcome.

Our stay at Riad Melhoun was beyond 5 star! We absolutely loved our stay, everything was perfect from the beautiful property, to the amazing staff. This Riad is gorgeous. Our room was very large and spatious, our bed was really comfortable, and our bathroom was beautiful, it also had really great water pressure. We spent every morning up on the rooftop terrace for breakfast before we would head out to explore for the day. It was so quiet and peaceful, I highly recommend. I love the location of the Riad, we were an easy walking distance to just about everything. A 5 minute walk to the palaces, a 5-10 min walk to the Souqs. I love that the Riad was really close to the markets without being right in the middle of them. Noise was never an issue. The Staff at Riad Melhoun are the best of the best. They went above and beyond to be helpful and accomodating.

This Riad was INCREDIBLE - the only accommodation I'd recommend for Marrakech. We were guests for 4 nights and didn't want to leave. The property was amazing as the decor was exquisite, clean and overall beautiful. The staff was out of this world and as a guest you are treated to amazing people who will take care of you. Nor, Mohammad, Jamal, Abdul, Adeesha, Sahira were above and beyond extraordinary taking care of my friend and me (I saw how lovely they were to other guests as well). I highly recommend eating dinner at the Riad and taking a cooking class from Adeesha, Sahira and Jamal - it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience! The Riad was our oasis within a very hectic city. Once we walked through the front door, we were treated to a very calm, quiet and relaxing atmosphere - we spent most of our time at the Riad for this reason.

This is a remarkable place to stay in Marrakech--a traditional riad in the heart of the Medina dating from 16th century. It boasts a courteous staff, extraordinary decor, beautiful rooms, impeccable service, and superb food. The resourceful staff arranged trips for us with knowledgeable guides both within the city and around the country. Marrakech has recovered entirely from the earthquake and is safe for travelers. Do yourself a favor and stay here rather than in a modern "luxury" hotel that cannot begin to match what is on offer at Riad Melhoun.

From the moment we were met at the door of Riad Melhoun we felt genuinely welcomed - such a lovely retreat from the madness of the Medina! The riad is beautiful - lovely intricate carvings with quiet nooks and crannies everywhere plus a magic roof-top retreat. Our room - Maya - was on the 2nd floor - spacious, really comfortable bed & pillows - and we couldn’t believe how quiet (& dark!) the room was - couldn’t even hear the calls to prayer. We had 2 dinners here - great meals - each dish explained & fantastic service. When I mentioned that I loved the olives in one of the salads, they bought another bowl of them! Direction wise we found it easy to find our way home after each day of wandering as it’s quite a direct walking route from the Jamaa fna square - after you’ve done it once! Also thoroughly recommend the spa & hammam- more like a western spa experience than a traditional hammam but with a little more nudity :)! We would come back to stay in a heart-beat!

I stayed for one night at the end of my time in Morocco in November. It was magical. I had a beautiful conversation about olives and eggplant one evening with Ahmed, and I had before me an eggplant vegetarian tagine breakfast extravaganza the next morning to my great surprise! This Riad was beyond expectation. They cared for my safety as a solo woman traveller and as a human being. A+

Impeccable service
The manager during our stay , Mohammed, made our stay extremely pleasant and unforgettable. He warmly greeted us at every chance he got , and really goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy. In terms of the actual room, it left something to be desired . The towels were all old and had holes in it. The air conditioning worked but was quite noisy. But everything else was solid ! Recommend this place if you’re looking for a budget stay with great customer service.

Lovely Moroccan Riad with great staff!!
Riad: The riad is very peaceful and beautiful. Authentic moroccan decor and attention to detail is what makes the riad memorable. The riad is beautifully decorated and so are the rooms. The pool area and the roof top were amongst my favorite spots to chill. Rooms: We stayed in Junior suite and we loved the room. It was spacious, clean and with all the amenities. Also, the decor is traditional which adds a charm to the room Staff: The staff is super helpful and they entertain all your needs. Mohammed helped me order a pizza from Dominoes nearby (since my husband was craving for it). They helped us with how to plan our sight-seeing and took care of all our needs. Breakfast: The breakfast was delicious: traditional Moroccan with pancakes and bread. Location: The riad is just a couple minute walk from the Bahia Palace and the city center. It was very convenient for us and we finished all the nearby sights in a day!! Would recommend staying in this riad for the hospitality and the ambiance!

The property itself is amazing!! The second you step in you feel the history, beauty, and magnificence of Moroccan architecture. The location is fantastic... I’ll never forget the walks through the narrow streets of the Medina. But above all, THE STAFF!! They were there for us when we needed recommendations, drivers, tips on dresscode, they helped us when our atm card didn’t work anywhere and we were out of cash. This riad has an INCREDIBLE team of colleagues who work so well together and made our time in Marrakesh a dream come true. Thank you!!

The location is roughly a 5-10min walk to the main square, but you wander through all the beautiful shops on your way. There is lots of restaurants also nearby. The staff here are AMAZING. Mohamed and the staff went over and above to look after us. THEY made our experience here amazing. Fresh tea on arrival, helping us on WhatsApp when we got lost. Making local recommendations. Talking with us each day when we returned and we shared and showed all our local purchases. Not all Riads are like this, but this made such a difference for our trip and our stay. The Riad has a small pool area and a restaurant. It is great value for money. The Hammam and massage is also available at the Riad. We have stayed in so many different hotels/accommodation. To be exact almost 34 countries in 4 years....this one stood out to us because of the people! When we come to Marrakech we will definitely stay at this Riad again!!! Thank you so so much

The Hotel is small But very beautiful. Secure and at the Center. Location is perfect, walking distance to a lot of touristic places such as Jemaa el-Fnaa, Koutoubia Mosque, Bahia Palace, Museums and Souks. Staff are all very nice especially the cleaning lady and the manager Mohammed. I forgot my gold necklace when i went out and the chamber maid found it in bed and place it on the table. It truly gives a feeling of “home away from home”. Great Value for Money.
