Riad Dar Justo is a calm oasis right in the middle of the Medina’s chaos. The room was very comfortable and had a heating option, which was much appreciated as we visited in December when the weather was slightly cold. Breakfast was good, and the restaurant staff were genuinely warm and lovely. We also had dinner at the rooftop restaurant one evening — the food was excellent and made for a really memorable experience.

Everything together. We didn’t check in after we saw the small room with smell of mold. No windows no elevator. I am suffering from asthma so no way I could stay in this kind of a room. Not mentioning the 15-20 minutes walk in the middle of the very crowded market to carry our luggage. No windows

Didn’t check in because the pictures on your site wasn’t like the actual hotel. Very heavy smell of mold. No windows no elevator. The entrance to the hotel is about 15 minutes walking in the market with our suitcases. The stuff we’re not welcoming. We had to leave before we checked in.

Fabulous Riad tucked away in a quiet location, but very close to the artisan quarters. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful.
Our room was beautiful and exceptionally clean.
Would thoroughly recommend this little gem of a Riad to anyone wishing to experience Marrakech for a few days.

Shops were pretty much the same in Marrakesh. The spa treatments were comforting after a full day of visiting Morocco and it’s people, but most of all the reception one gets coming through their front door was nothing other than blissful give this hotel a chance it’s well worth the money because the memories will last forever

Great place to stay though a bit hidden

While having been to Marrakech many times, I had never stayed at a riad in the Medina. It was a lovely experience. Once you get comfortable actually finding it and remembering how to get there, it was great being in the centre of everything. The hotel is a great value for the money, the service was friendly and helpful, they collect and take you to the airport if needed, and the food at the restaurant was great. Very happy.

My sister and I stayed here for four nights, and it was truly one of the best experiences we’ve ever had in Marrakesh. The riad itself is absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and authentic, but what really made our stay unforgettable was the staff. Every single person went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, cared for, and at home.

The hospitality was 10/10 – warm, genuine, and thoughtful in every way. The food was incredible, full of flavor and beautifully presented. Each morning felt special, and every detail of our stay was perfect.

If you’re looking for the best riad experience in Marrakesh, this is the place. I cannot recommend it enough!

My stay at Riad Dar Justo was not great. We found the staff to be unhelpful and did not provide a warm welcome or support when asking general questions such as taxi services/spa/general support. The room was okay however my partner did not like the bathroom and mentioned mould. Overall we found the staff unhelpful and the Riad not very homely.

Fantastic Riad & Quiet!

When booking our weekend trip to Marrakesh we had a simple criteria, be close to the action but quiet on an evening, the ability to get a beer or wine if we desired and authentic with the quality you’d expect from a hotel.

The Riad Dar Justo ticked all of the boxes, extremely clean, friendly and pleasant. We stopped in one of the standard rooms as I didn’t want a mezzanine floor room, I can sleepwalk so that’s a bit of a no no.

The Riad itself is beautiful and great to explore, see the pictures!

Breakfast is a broad selection of pastries, cakes fruit, cold cut meats/cheese toast and omelettes and fantastic French style coffee.

A must by the way is to arrange transfers with them both ways, this is in two parts, minibus to the walls of the city, then a porter to the hotel, oh and bear in mind that it’s a rat run, so it would be flustering for the first getting to the hotel.

All in all, we got lucky with this little gem and can’t fault it!

Absolutely Charming Place !!..:EXACTLY the kind of atmosphere one would hope for in an EXCELLENT location. The riad was a welcome retreat from the hustle and bustle of the busy Medina but right on its doorstep.
Delightful, professional staff were perfect hosts.
Very much enjoyed the spa restaurant and lounge areas.
Can't wait to go back!!

Absolutely amazing Hotel, beautiful and like stepping into the set of a movie. Our view of the pool from our room, was such a wonderful surprise upon check in. Yusuf at the front desk was so helpful showing us around and always had a smile and a polite word to say. He Truly made us feel at home. The restaurant had a delicious and very extensive breakfast as well and the dinner was so exquisite, I’m happy we chose to eat there every night. You also definitely can’t miss the Hammam experience at the spa, you will leave feeling like a new person! Hahar, Aliza and Hamsa took such great care of me and made the experience very delightful. I loved it so much I went again the next day. I highly recommend you visit the spa! Overall, excellent hotel and I would definitely visit again.

Really good hotel and great staff. The only issue was that it's was really loud and difficult to sleep. I think this was due to our room placement (on the corridor/stairs to the restaurant and bar). It was loud at night and in the morning when setting up for breakfast. It's a shame about the noiseas I would have came back the next time I'm in Marrakech as everything else was great.

Great location in/at the edge of the Medina.
Staff very helpful, arranged transport and guide for us. If you have not been here before, suggest you arrange transport from the airport BEFORE arrival, and call for the hotel porter when you get to the Medina gate to confirm what they look like (cabs can't enter, it is about a 5 minute walk to the hotel, and depending on your flight and baggage you may not want to lug it yourself).
Google maps worked flawlessly for our visit, lots to see within 20 minutes on foot.
8 minute walk to the center square, there are many great restaurants in the area.
Good food at the hotel, lovely fruit and croissants for breakfast.

Will absolutely stay here again for any future visit.

Nice hotel

Riad Dar Justo is a great hotel to stay in. Great service, very clean rooms and delicious breakfast. The only tip I can offer is to contact the hotel before your arrival so someone can receive you from the car. Cars cannot go close to the hotel. It is about 900 feet away from the limit that cars can go.

An outstanding hotel in the heart of the old Medina of Marrakech. It is a Riad (a traditional building around an open central courtyard) with restaurant, bar and roof terrace. Rooms are of a very high quality. Breakfast was superb. Staff are very welcoming and helpful. Highly recommended if you are seeking a beautiful traditional hotel in the heart of Marrkech. You won't be disappointed!

We had a fantastic stay albeit cut short by the current Covid crisis.
This is a beautiful Riad right on the edge of the Medina and what makes it even more special is the staff. They are always happy to help and this was highlighted when it looked like we could possibly be finding ourselves stranded awaiting a rescue flight and the management offered us our room free of charge until we were repatriated.

I would highly recommend this hotel and would once again like to thank the management and staff for their kindness during a difficult time.

Great stay in the very hart of the Medina

Great stay.
The hotel is a beautiful Arab house located in the very hart of the Medina. everything is restored and modern but keeps to the Arab style which gives you an authentic feeling.

All the staff did a great job and were very helpful with everything we needed. I would like to single out Ismail from the rooftop restaurant who did an amazing job helping us with our meals and serving us drinks with a top quality service attitude.

We would very much want to return in the future,=.

Disappointing experience

The experience if staying in a riad was actually very nice and this one has beautiful patios and structure, however our room was a box with almost no ventilation and a lot of moist that you can even smell permanently. Also, the terraces do not have the charm and beauty what I have experienced before in many other riads. Finally, although most of the staff was nice and friendly, the people at the front desk are not too professional, sometimes address your requests in a very rude way, and the way they offer you fees for services (trasfers, excursions...) feels very fishy, like nothing was established, they were cheating and you had to bargain like in the shops of the medina...
Sadly, I have to say that Dar Justo would be a much more pleasant place if they would take care of these details, but as it is now I think it is not worth the price. I’d rather go somewhere else next time.

Beautiful oasis in the medina

We happened upon this riad by luck. We had booked accommodations at Dar Habiba based on beautiful photos and what appeared to be a lovely locale. Upon arriving, we quickly realized we were in a backpacker-esque low budget hotel. Unacceptable, we frantically got online to look for something else. My friend remembered she had been there the year before because she had used the spa services associated with the hotel. Thankfully they had one room left and they sent a porter to retrieve us and transport our bags. We felt like we had arrived at an oasis. We headed up to the rooftop terrace for dinner, where we received the most courteous and attentive service from Hicham. We stayed there for 5 hours. The riad has numerous lounges and nooks where you can escape and enjoy relaxation.I would describe the decor as simple elegance. We felt so fortunate to have found this lovely riad, especially because they closed the day we checked out for two weeks of renovations. As beautiful as it was, I couldn't see the need for them, but it shows the high standards that they have. I highly recommend this riad.

They gave us a room on the ground floor right in-front of the pool. We heard every person walking through the courtyard from our room, from non-guests coming in to take photos inside the pool area, to ppl coming in and out late night. I was there late April so it was not hot, but the room felt very humid and wet.... the towels would not dry. Also, when we wanted to turn no the A/C it was nonexistent.

Fantastic stay, beautiful pool and Riad. Location was fab, right in the middle of the souks and about a ten minute walk from the main square.
Check in was a bit later that said but that was quickly forgotten one we made it up to the beautiful rooftop garden.

Great hotel in the middle of Medina

The hotel and staff were great! Very friendly and accommodating. The only negative thing I have to say is that this hotel is in the middle of a Medina and a bit hard to find especially at night. My friend and I had difficulty finding it and had to ask locals for help (asking for help is not free- FYI). The front desk and restaurant staff made our stay very lovely. The rooms are cool during the hot summer days and the pool is refreshing.

Pretty hotel but no hospitality.

The room and hotel were nice looking however the AC was not working in our room. They told us they fixed it but when we got back from dinner we realized it was still not working. It was really hot in there so we asked for another room and they told us no. We opened the windows to get some air flow but they opened to the lobby which was bright and loud.

Again the next day we asked someone else on the way out about the AC and when we got back from our tour it still was not fixed. We pulled the thermostat off the wall and realized all it needed was batteries. I guess the \"technician\" couldn't figure that out. After talking to 4 people they finally got it working for us and then proceeded to blame us for being hot because we had the windows open.

With the exception of one women, the staff in the hotel and restaurant were really not helpful or attentive. They acted as if they were doing us a favor.
