I stayed here at the end •••• •••• •••• 9821of December 2011. The riad was in a great location and an easy walk to the main market square in Marrakech. The room was a bit small but very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was nice and the hot water was plentiful. The best part of my stay was the wonderful... More

Having been recommended to us by a friend we were not disappointed on arriving at Riad de l'Orientale. They arranged for us to be picked up from the airport and we were greeted on arrival by the very lovely Latifa with mint tea and cake. Latifa and rest of the staff were more than helpful during our stay bringing us... More

Riad de l'Orientale is the perfect gettaway from the busy Jemaa el-Fnaa in Marrakech. It is located about 3 walking distance from this main square and offers complete tranquility. The room was spotless and decorated traditionally. The courtyard is beautiful, with every decoration and detail perfected. Fresh roses are dotted everywhere and the pretty roof terrace looks out over the... More

We had the most amazing stay at the L'Orientale. Latifa and Zachariah made us feel completely at home. From the minute we arrived they had arranged for someone to meet us at the airport. Latifa greeted us in the square and kindly walked us the the riad. Amongst a bustling Marrakech, riad L'Orientale is a haven of tranquility and peace.... More

The riad is a stone's throw away from the bustling heart of Marrakech. The rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable,especially the suite which has air conditioning. As the temperature was unseasonally high during our stay at the end of June (45 degrees), air conditioning was essential! Latifa, Zachariah and the rest of the staff, are charming, helpful and friendly. The... More

They arranged everyting for us; taxi to and from theairport, transport of bags etc. They do dinner as well and provided us with some the best food we had anywhere in Morocco. The rooms are very comfortable and the staff can't do enough to make your stay... More

Marrakesh is a very demanding place to stay, with just about everyone determined to squeeze every last dirham out of you as you travel around, so this riad is a delight, being 1 minute from the main square. Zak and Latifah do everything they can to make you welcome and its worth eating in one evening and asking for a... More

Marrakech is a fascinating city with culture, sun and shopping! The Riad was a great haven tucked just behind the square and once you were in the front door, tranquil. Recently refurbed and very clean so a delight to be in, a traditional Riad with great service and food. We ate Morrocan dishes on the first night which were delicious-tagines,... More

From the moment we were met at the airport Latifa and her staff created a peaceful haven from the wonderful chaos that is Marrakesh. Our room was spotless, because it looked over the courtyard was airy and the shower provided hot water at a good pressure at all times of the day. Our breakfast was varied and included local jams,...
