We stayed here for a few nights on our honeymoon in morocco and had a wonderful stay. The riad is beautiful and kept spotlessly clean. Everyone was so welcoming and did everything possible to ensure we had a brilliant time in the riad and in Marrakech. I would recommend this riad to everyone as the perfect base to explore Marrakech... More

What a wonderful place to stay in Marrakech. This riad, it's staff and service were just superb. It was the highlight of our holiday in Morocco and I will definitely be going back. We took a cooking lesson with Saida who took us to the souk to select our chicken and vegetables, then showed us step by step how to... More

The riad was recommended to us by some friends and we are so pleased we took their advice. It was lovely. The staff were so helpful and couldn't have been more so, giving first class service. We travelled with some friends (3 couples in total) and 3 of us did the morning cookery lesson, visiting the market first to buy... More

I am a hopeless romantic and as such I am often disappointed when holiday accommodation does not live up to my ideals. Happily this was not the case at the RIad El Zohar as the experience exceeded my expectations. My husband and I stayed at the Riad for four nights during March. The owners Allan and Malika ensured that we... More

Expectations were high… and were exceeded in every possible way. Riad El Zohar is a beautiful, historic and secluded riad only a few minutes’ walk from all the action. Visiting Marrakech for the first timer can be a daunting experience but owner Allan goes out of his way to prepare and welcome you to this amazing city. From initial booking... More

Although El Zohar has character in abundance, is beautifully maintained and couldn’t be better located for exploring Marrakech, there is still a greater reason for staying at the riad … the first class service it provides. From booking to airport transfers, arranging trips and taking breakfast when and where one wishes, Allan Crump and his small team can’t do enough... More

We chose this Riad after checking reviews...........and discovered all the positive comments are clearly justified. Would strongly advise taking up the Riad's offer of organising taxi and porter as it would be difficult to find unless you know Marrakech well. This riad has only five rooms, all furnished in beautiful Moroccan style. We had a room on the ground floor,... More

I could not fault this hotel. From the moment we arrived they made sure that we had the best experience of Marrakech: from the first sublime taste of mint tea; to owner Allan's top tips on haggling and his guided tour of the souks and local landmarks which ensured that we could get back to the riad when we got...

Riad El Zohar truly was the most glamorous place I have ever stayed, the beautiful balcony area on the roof provided a peaceful retreat from the hustle of the souks. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and provided a bounty of drinks and nibbles meeting our every whim. I would defiantly revisit this lovely riad if I had the... More

Riad El Zohar is a stunning place to stay in the middle of an amazing city. Everything has been completed to such a high standard and with such attention to detail - from the rooms to the fabulous tent on the roof terrace, and it really feels a world away from the bustle of the souk that is just outside...
