Riads are such great designs - an open air courtyard with rooms around the perimeter....and a roof terrace. Arahanta had such a wonderful feel. Ross and david, the owners, were very friendly and helpful with lots of local advice (ask them about the nearby restaurant with the vegetarian tagine - insist on preserved lemon being added). They organised for us... More

Never having been to marrakech before, we didnt know what to expect. We needn't have worried. On arriving at Riad Arahanta, we were welcomed by David and Ross who were very friendly and full of all sorts of very useful information.

We spent a lot of time in the Hivernage but were thankful that we chose to... More

David and Ross were more like old friends on our stay, welcoming us into their home and always being ready to help with any questions or give us advice. They... More

My first trip to Morocco was made very enjoyable by the helpfulness of owners Ross and David.I was immediately made to feel at home with never ending teabags, essential to an English granny abroad. The Arahanta being in the heart of the Medina, and my wobbly sense of direction,meant that I got lost several times on the first day, even... More

This riad is run by David and Ross, who are friendly and easy going. We arranged a pickup and David met us at the taxi stand and took us to the riad. All the rooms are on the ground floor and the owners live on the first floor. They provided us a little map on arrival which helped us greatly... More
