Staff were all charming. Breakfast was different and beautiful every morning, some fresh fruit, egg, pastries both Moroccan and French

Lovely roof terrace, relaxing central pool area with tables and lounging areas. Perfect for an afternoon cup of Moroccan tea

Compared to a lot of Riad's very easy for taxi drivers as it's a 30 second walk from a main(ish) road, but it's still set back so perfectly calm within the Riad.

Less than a minute walk from the entrance to the Medina/Souk

Lovely continental breakfast provided each day, the staff were absolutely lovely and really looked after us. It’s a beautiful Riad with traditional features but modern facilities. We had a number of Hammam and spa treatments which were excellent. Like many Riads, the roads outside are not very luxury looking but you step through the door into an oasis of luxury living. Enjoyed every moment.

The hotel is beautifully decorated and very well-maintained with really lovely staff. Only downside is the hotel is located on the north of the Medina so you need to walk along a busy road with cars to get to the souk.

We stayed in a room for 3 people with our college age daughter. The property is lovely but what sets it apart is the staff. They went above and beyond in every way possible - changing money, arranging
Massages and also breakfast by the pool is delightful. We also left our computer in the room and they took the time to personally deliver it to us at our next hotel. Now that is service. Do not hesitate to book this gem of a Riad for your next trip. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

Beautiful place , excellent service , attentive staff . Had to add a night on a weather related emergency. We were going from Fez to Merzouga and got caught in a snowstorm. We decided to turn around and go to Marrakech and so booked last minute . Staff was wonderful. Checked us in at midnight . Breakfast was super and room was beautiful . Spa looks amazing . We are coming back in a couple of days

We got the larger room and it was very nice. Continental breakfast was included and we had great service. The location is in the medina but at the edge, so although we encountered the Marrakesh traffic, we enjoyed it and it was one of the reasons we got a rental car. The property is beautiful and quiet. Room was clean.

Beautiful Riad Hotel in the very centre of Morocco. If you want to experience everything Morocco has to offer right in the middle of the city then this courtyard house hotel is a great find.
It is small but the staff were great and very helpful. Convenient for the city and has a very traditional feel.

I had the pleasure of staying at Demeures d’Orient Riad Deluxe & Spa, and it was truly an exceptional experience. The riad itself is a masterpiece — the decoration is absolutely superb, a reflection of the refined taste and vision of the owner, Sophie. Every corner is thoughtfully curated, blending traditional Moroccan elegance with a unique, personal touch.

What made the stay even more memorable was the impeccable service led by Sophie’s daughter, Zoé, who manages the hotel with warmth, professionalism, and attention to every detail. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely cared for. Zoé went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout the stay.

This riad is not just a place to stay — it’s an experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for authenticity, beauty, and five-star hospitality in the heart of Marrakech. A true gem!

Lovely peaceful Riad with great staff.

it was wonderful getting back to this lovely Riad each day after the hustle and bustle of the Medina. The staff were so friendly and helpful throughout our four night stay. We were given a Deluxe suite which was a very good size room. Breakfast was great next to the pool, all served , not a buffet.

It’s a gorgeous property in the inside. It’s an oasis from the chaotic bustling old town.
Walking distance to souks for convenient shopping. The hotel staff is very helpful and especially enjoyed the assistance of Zoe the property manager. The roof top terrace is the entire size of the property. It is easy to find your own private corner. Would definitely recommend and return.

Demeures D’Orient is a hidden gem with the Riad courtyard layout providing perfect tranquility but only a few minutes walk from all the excitement of Marrakech and all the sights.

An oasis of tranquility in a busy bustling, sometimes overwhelming Marrakesh. Beautiful property, sympathetically turned into a stunning Riad - a stones throw from the Souks. Feels like a film set from another era. Lovely & helpful owners & staff. Thoroughly recommend.

Nous avons passé un agréable weekend au Riad, et avons beaucoup apprécié le cadre et l'attention du personnel ainsi que les conseils. Seuls bémols, les chambres un peu froides en hiver (début février), mais ça sera un avantage plus tard dans l'année, et la coupole donnant sur la grande baignoire en marbre. Bien que cela fasse un joli puits de lumière, c'est aussi une fenêtre avec vue plongeante depuis la terrasse. Pas génial si on n'est pas exhibitioniste. Pourquoi ne pas remplacer les verres par du verre translucide (sablé, opal)? On a beaucoup aimé les friandises et le thé vert à la réception (les briouates .... miam!).

Pleasant stay

The Riad is lovely. The location is difficult is find but paid help gets you home. The staff are a little in their own time, things don’t happen immediately. The breakfast is average but pleasant.. bed was two mattresses stuck together which led to a few accidents late at night…main draw back is the pool isn’t really a pool… you can’t swim it without smashing your knees in the floor. Only reason why we booked and probably wouldn’t return. The managers eyes are worth the trip though..

Real Marrakech

If you wish to experience the real Marrakech this is the perfect choice of accommodation. Outside is chaos but you enter the Riad through an impressive ornate door and step into calm tranquility. The staff are very eager to please and will quickly lay on transport when needed. We went out on foot for one night and it was fine but generally would suggest travelling by car at night. If you want the sanitised version of this city stay in Hivernage but this place, within a short walk of the souks and medina, is the real deal....

Hubby and I stayed for 5 days at this beauriful riadh set in a seemingly relatively deprived part of Marrakech. But it is a hidden gem and once you get familiar with local area you dont feel any difference. Local people are very helpful wirh directions. Its eithin about 15 mins walk from Jemma el fanna and about 20 minutes from other attrctions. Hotel staff were amazing- very polite and curteous and helpful. The manager is french and is amazingly curteous. The riadh is perfect for couples looking for a romantic break. Rooms and amenities are very spaciois. Loved thr bath tub fit for two! Wake up to birds singing at dawn in the courtyard. Breakfast by pool or candle lit dinner by pool was so romantic and serene. Breakfast is simple selection of fresh pastries and morroccon pancakes, different fruits, fresh juice and either coffee or delicious morroccon tea. You can order ommelettes/eggs additional cost. For us a simple breakfast was good enough as we explored different outside. Overall we cant fault this Riadh. We had the best time together. Highly recommend it!

Big disappointment !

I have stayed at this hotel several times before in previous years. Back then it was like a dream, the staff was nice, the food amazing, the service incredible.
They had Aziz and his team who managed this place in a way that the client would feel at home and among friends.
But this ambience has totally disappeared and the food is not as good as it was before.
The Riad considers itself as a 5 star fascility but the way things are today, they are more like a 3 star facility.
They have started to think more about where to safe money and the hotel guest does feel the difference; a year ago the hotel had 24-28 permanent staff members now it's only 8 (!!).
Also the food does not have the standard it had before and the breakfast was very simple and had no longer the standard from before; every piece of bread, every orange juice or egg is counted for.
This is not the magical place I used to know. Very sad.

Disappointing

Lovely riad but far too expensive for what else you can get for much less in Marrakech. Rip off with locals taxes - 70dh a night which is way more than I've been charged anywhere else in Morocco. Also, for 'their' taxi man, they just make up the prices. So annoying as the general staff are lovely and the riad is beautiful. So many better options for the money in Marrakech.
