I was really happy with my stay at Riad Sapphire (once I finally found it)! Highly recommend leveraging their greeting service to help you with locating the riad in the quiet narrow alleys of the Medina. Once inside, it was a beautiful oasis where the team including Abdo and Driss welcomed you home like family. The rooftop terrace and central atrium were beautiful, and the morning breakfast was the perfect way to start every day of adventures in Marrakesh.

Amazing Riad, very quiet and clean. Staff is very kind and helpful, we took the transfer offered by the Riad and everything was very smooth. The included breakfast is very good and very fresh, you get something different everyday!

The food options for dinner are very good as well, super fresh and generous portions! The roof terrace is a really nice place to relax after a whole day of walking 🚶

And lastly we used the spa services, all very clean and very kind ladies ❤️ cannot recommend enough! The the only thing we missed was a TV since it was a bit stormy in the evenings we could have used it!

Can’t say enough good things about this Riad. Very clean, comfortable and great location, the sheets even smell softener. Every detail in our room was well thought, there were rose petals all over in our arrival.

Now I have to say, the best part of this Riad is their people. Driss , Abdo and the ladies who works there provided excellent customer service, always willing to help. They do make a great difference!

Thank you so much for everything, me and my family are really happy.

The riad was beautiful and exceptionally clean, with charming Moroccan décor and a touch of French elegance. We stayed in the junior suite, which was absolutely dreamy. The rooftop terrace was a stunning spot to watch the sunrise and sunset, with views of the Atlas Mountains in the distance.

Breakfast was freshly prepared each morning and absolutely delicious. After long walks exploring the city, the small pool was perfect for dipping our tired feet and relaxing. The riad is ideally located — everything is within walking distance.

Abdolah and Idris were wonderful hosts, always warm, attentive, and eager to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The housekeeping staff were lovely too, constantly ensuring the place remained spotless.

Overall, our experience was excellent. We’re so grateful to the entire team for their hospitality and hope to return very soon! Maryam & Essi

Pros: Good service. Riad staff picked us up and dropped us to the roads for pickup service.Great breakfast. Packed up take away breakfast on our tour days. Clean but small room and a clean riad. Room cleaning was great. Google map works for navigation within Medina.

Cons: Location within Medina we didn't like. Too many alleys. Price for food is definitely for tourists. We didn't eat there except breakfast.

Located away from the hustle and bustle of the Medina in one of the side streets. A lovely way to experience local hospitality. A nice, very clean and spacious environment, with great staff at all levels who were always ready to please. Fantastic for lone female travellers where personal security is made a priority. The inclusive breakfast is really substantial and even though a small establishment, freshly cooked lunch and delicious evening meals are available to order. The luxury of an in-house Hammam and Massage facility meant I did not have to travel far to experience some self indulgence. My thanks to Driss and his team for making my stay here a safe and pleasant one 🙏 Highly recommended!

Convenient and Safe

Stayed 6 nights at the Riad for our Marrakech trip; no regret at all as location is convenient; near the popular pick-up point for all tours/trips arranged.
Riad is cosy with a roof terrace & pool.One can really experience what a riad is.
Drizz is really helpful and provide very comprehensive information about the areas/attractions. A very gentle and courteous gentleman that you could hardly encounter at service industry these days. Abdo has been helpful while Drizz was not around also.
Breakfast served everyday; of which were healthy and rich. Lady staff are cheerful and courteous; always extend assistance whenever needed.
Highly recommended for any tourist to Marrakech !
p.s. Drizz was very sick when we checked out; hope he could recover swiftly. Regards/Sarah

This property is the worst! They never consider that the customer medical emergency that we had to cancel prior to arrival but didnt want to refund the money you paid because they said its already booked even with hospital and doctor’s certificate. Absolute scam and greed. Considering expensive rate per night. There are better Riads around for sure and not as greedy as this property.

Really good Riad

Very happy with our stay at Sapphire Riad,the property itself is lovely. Quiet, clean and an oasis
of calm after the chaos of the Medina.
No more than 25 minutes by taxi from the airport and at the north west side of the
Medina,within walking distance to all the major sights but we did get a taxi back to the Riad
from the Fnar square on one occasion as it was very hot. Taxis are cheap-if you haggle!
We were greeted by the wonderful Abdo who served us Mint tea and delicious cake on arrival
and throughout our stay was always on hand,along with his colleague, to assist in any way he
could, including ringing a local restaurant to book a reservation. Nothing was too much trouble.
The bedroom was lovely and spacious with a walk-in shower and very efficient air-con, there is
a small plunge pool and several delightful quiet public areas to sit and also a roof top terrace to
sit in the sun if preferable.
Breakfast was particularly impressive, beautifully presented with a huge array of delicious
savoury and sweet items which varied everyday (the chocolate cake was particularly good!) all
served by the delightful staff.
We would not hesitate to stay at this Riad again and highly recommend

The Riad staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. We felt extremely well taken care of. It was a pleasure to stay there. It is also an experience to stay in a Riad compared to Hotel.
After the initial surprise to get there from the Taxi drop off at Sidi Ben Slimane
(ask them to pick you up - best option
or, if you are a seasoned traveler follow the sign to Dar Zellij, ask along the way, then just before take a left then 25m or so is a foot with the name plate)
the Medina becomes familiar to you and people start recognizing you and are dry kind.
Do not try to find your way from the other side - really tough. Again, the staff is very helpful and will guide you whenever you need it.
Breakfast really good and they vary the menu ever day.
The ambiance is welcoming and nice.Good smell as well.
The bed we had was very comfortable and we slept well until late every morning.
In summary, we can recommend the place whole heartedly and point out the staff as exceptional.

From the moment we were collected we knew we were going to enjoy our first trip to Marrakech. The riad‘a kitchen produced a delicious range of traditional Moroccan dishes; the breakfast certainly set us up for the day! Our room was delightful as were the sitting areas, both in the cool courtyard area and the roof terrace, with everywhere exceptionally clean.

Overall, our stay at the Riad Sapphire was fine. However, there were a few things that I need to point out: as travelers WiFi is extremely important and the signal for our room was non-existent. This was very frustrating and made researching restaurants, etc challenging. Our room was very narrow and had low ceilings, unlike our friends who had much larger rooms, and always felt damp like after showers and never circulated throughout our stay, even with the windows open. Speaking of windows, one of ours (on the first floor) didn’t lock. So there’s that. Location was ok; it was near enough to where taxis congregate, but also is not in a great part of town. So coming and going to the Riad you had to be alert. Service was good and we enjoyed the breakfast.

Our room was small with only about 1 ft. clearance on one side and on the end of the bed. However, I looked at some other rooms and they were larger, so it would be good to specify one on the 2nd floor.

Only thing is our bed was a little too firm. Car can not access the front door of Riad so you will need to walk about 5 min for car pickups but staff are willing to assist with luggage although they we didn’t need that.

Riad is modern and clean; breakfast selection is great. Abdul was excellent in helping us with all our queries, we were very lucky to have him on duty when we arrived.

The riad is located deep in the Medina and so getting in on our own on the first few days was tricky. There were many locals, both young and old who were very eager to bring us to the riad, even when we say no. They can be very pushy and persistent which can be intimidating.

Very good, quiet, relaxing, friendly and comfy

Excellent in all aspects, other than it's own location, reference to everything else in Marrakech's magical Medina.

The staff are all extremely pleasant, nice and helpful. You'd be hard pressed to find better a better accommodating group. Atmosphere: relaxing; rooms and bathrooms: really comfortable and clean; breakfast was very good with a slight variation every morning; staff: what sets this place apart is the friendly and clear communication from the staff. I strongly recommend this place to stay in a place like Marrakech.

The only reason why its not received my 5 stars is because, objectively, the Medina generally has very few young kids who try to send you in the wrong direction and want money for sending you back on your right path. Google Maps really helped make sure we had no issues and we did not encounter any difficulties. If you are reading about going into the Medina, you have to expect an element of locals looking at you because, you, like them look, walk and dress differently. The Riad offer a mobile phone (refundable deposit payable) which allows those guests who prefer to call an escort to/from the Riad, which we made use of on day 1, and not again after as we really felt comfortable.

As long as you're happy to stay in the Medina, I totally recommend this gem.

Well-appointed riad in the medina

Beautiful property with white marble and silver accents. Very airy and open feel. The luxury suite was spacious with a chaise lounge and two chairs with small table, in addition to a large king-sized bed. The bathroom is all concrete with a lovely shower but not bathtub.
Breakfast was good with fruit, yogurt, and breads with jams. Dinner was exceptional with 3-courses of your choice (no alcohol served at the hotel).
The location within the riad was okay but not ideal. It is difficult to find and takes 30+ minutes to walk to the main square. There is not much right around the riad. The hotel was very relaxing-looking but loud. When in the hotel room, we could hear loud doors slamming, hotel staff discussing/arguing things, phones ringing. There is basically no sound-proofing in the rooms.
The pool is very small and not heated. The rooftop terrace is okay but not as charming in person as it appears in photos.
I would recommend this property to a friend as \"good\" but I would personally try a new place if returning to Marrakesh.

Great little Riad in the heart of Marrakech

Lovely stay with Riad Saphire, Asma & her team are excellent and the service was impeccable and of a 5* hotel. The location is a short walk from the Souks & Square however must be noted that it cannot be accessed by taxi so you have to get ot and then walk for 2 minutes. Be wary of guys offering to show you where to go and carrying your bags, they don't work for the Riad and will want compensation for their efforts. I must way it ws helpful as it can be triky to find the first time. The Riad is away from the hustle & bustle and a peice of serenty in a crazy city. The riad was beautiful and has a lovley rooftop terrace where we had breakfast every morning. Nothing was too much trouble and breakfast was different (and yummy) every day. Just check out the instagram photos. The only thing to say is that you can hear everything when in your room so if people are sat in the court yard eating breakfast or chating in the evening you can hear that. We stayed in the Ebony room with the overlooking balcony and was very lovley!

Our stay at the Riad was perfect. Communication prior to our arrival was great and we were able to book a spa package upon arrival. We did the hammam + 60 minute massage which was detoxifying, relaxing and rejuvenating. The room was clean and the service professional. We were also greeted with tea and cake and a overview of the city and hotel. Parking is by Larousse bus stop. Don’t let a local “guide” you to the hotel, you can find it with the directions provided or by calling ahead and getting an escort. The rooftop deck was comfortable.

good value for the money, but poor location as it is deep within a souk with much construction around it (however this may change with time). not as central to the main square (~15 min walk) and maybe difficult to find at times (will need to take a taxi to the main parking lot and walk about 4 mins to the riad through dark alleys). this can be a pro as it allows you to experience \"living in the souks\" and potentially wandering around a very historical way of life. the riad itself is clean and nicely remodeled in a more modern style. staff is pleasant and accommodating, though they do not accept USD for any sorts of payments (have euros, MAD, or credit card).

The riad is a beautiful building offering clean comfortable rooms. Our room was on the ground floor looking onto the second courtyard.

It was beautifully prepared with rose petals everywhere, bathrobes, slippers & lovely glass toiletries bottles.
The staff were super friendly & helpful, and we managed to book in for a couples Hammam & a massage after. The breakfast was really lovely & changed each day. The rooftop offered another beautiful communal area to relax.

We arrived at night, and booked the airport transfer via the riad, which was great & stress free. The taxi can’t take you to to the front door so you have to walk the last few minutes through a uneven cobbles. They can arrange a porter for your luggage if you need it. So glad we stayed here!

The staff at Riad Sapphire were very friendly and helpful. We stayed there for five nights, and would definitely choose it again if we visit Marrakech in the future.

a long weekend getaway

Really friendly staff from the start to the end and very accommodating. The only thing is the sound echos and when people are loud, you can hear everything. So make sure to pack ear plugs if you are a light sleeper!

Extremely accommodating staff. Highly Recommend!

Located in medina, but not hard to find. Staff was super accommodating. very modern interior design with a traditional Moroccan touch. Make sure to try their message and have breakfast on the roof!

Cozy and clean riad with friendly staff

My sister and I decided very last minute to visit Marrakech on a whim! We had some difficulty booking a reasonable hotel on short notice but were luckily able to snag a room at Riad Sapphire. We were welcomed with delicious mint tea and pastries upon arrival. The staff were very helpful and extremely accomodating. We appreciated that the manager took time to carefully explain the map of the Medina. We stayed in the junior suite which was immaculately clean and spacious for 2. Breakfast was delicious and check out was quick and simple. The only negative thing that I can think of is the distance from the main square. It is about a 30 min walk which isn’t too bad (there’s lots to see), but can be a little unsettling at nighttime. We were so sad we were only able to book for one day.

Good accommodation. Horrible surrounding

Great staff, very warm. All cooked was amazing. But horrible surrounding, wouldn't recommend only because of the location and the alleys. No signs around. More than a few confusing turns even using Google maps

Beautiful Riad, the staff are amazing!

We couldn't have asked for a warmer welcome or a more comfortable stay at Riad Sapphire. The amazing staff made us feel that nothing was too much trouble, everywhere was spotlessly clean (and I'm fussy!) and breakfast was a wonderful feast which was slighlty different each day.
Can't recommend highly enough, absolutley first class.

Very nice!

Highly recomended! We absolutely loved this Place. Pretty hard to find like everything in Medina. Sadly we only stayed one night. We definetly would go back!

Marrakesh!

Had a great stay at the Riad Sapphire. The hotel is very well located, in the old town, right next to the main square. At times, it was a bit tricky to find our way back, specially in the evenings so always good to have a good map with you. We loved the rooftop floor :) Staff is really friendly and helpful. And the city is as lively as you would expect. And hot! Would love to comeback. Definitely recommend.
