“Out of the way oasis in the medina”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay and this beautiful and sympathetically restored riad. It's every bit as beautiful as it looks on the website. The owners and staff are welcoming and accommodating and we had excellent email communication with Yvonne during the reservation process. The meal we had in house was very nice and the inclusive breakfast sets you up for the day. I have no hesitation in recommending Ariha!

Room Tip: Jasmine suite has its own fireplace which is very atmospheric at this time of the year!

“Highly recommended”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

Fantastic Riad, we really enjoyed our stay. Beautifully renovated and decorated, very relaxing atmosphere. Extremely friendly and welcoming staff and owners who make you feel at home at once. Amazing breakfast that changes every morning. We stayed in the Jacaranda room, loved the dome! Thank you Bader, Barbara, Amina and Abdul!

“Peaceful, friendly & great value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

I'm having a week at this great riad; I just slept until 12:30 pm- it's that peaceful. I even still got breakfast when I woke up! The owners have been wonderful; helping me get around, explaining Marrakesh. They really try to make your entire stay a good one. I highly recommend this place!

Room Tip: Top floor may be quieter

“Great start to Morocco”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We arranged a driver from the airport - he was very helpful and showed us right to the door which is great as the riad is complex to get too (as many are).
The greeting from the staff was good and the room lovely. When we went for dinner that evening, the night porter showed us to the restaurant and then had someone escort us back. I don't think this was necessary but it was very good of them regardless.
The room was quite big, very clean, and very quiet.
As mentioned in a previous post, you are relying on the quietness of your neighbors in the Riad - but this was the same in the other Riad we stayed at so if you want to stay up late, go the the rooftop (most Riads seem to have one)or stay in a hotel.

Room Tip: We stayed in Jasmine on the first floor. It was spot on. The one on the ground floor backs into the...

4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 December 2011

Dear Barbara

I would just like to say what a wonderful stay I had at the Riad recently (Dec 8th - Dec 12th 2011) Amina, Abduallah and all the Riad staff could not be more welcoming and hospitable. The handled all queries to highest professional and were so friendly it was the most homely stay I have to date in all my travels!

Please pass on my Thanks to them again for their kindness as well as delicious tagine - especially given I am a vegetarian! The Riad itself was spotless with stunning decor. I would highly recommend this to all my friends & family when visting Marrakech.

Once again you made my first visit to this increbible intriguing City that tad bit special!
Kind Regards, Priti Patel (Cardiff, Wales, UK.)
