We are in awe! What a fantastic gem. Staff, spa nd food were excellent. Their hospitality left nothing to need or want. Daily breakfast, excursion recommendations were all perfect. Definitely consider the Imlil Valley excursion. Pools are relaxing and warm too. Their rooftop and central lobby area are so impressive and beautifully decorated. We are in love with this property!

I stayed there with my family- 2 rooms and they were a nice size; the spa and hamman were very nice and the staff couldn’t have been nicer-so all in all a good choice. I personally did not care for the breakfast and while it is a very good location for being near but not in the souk cars cannot come or drop you right at your door so a woman alone or anyone with a walking problem might not be comfortable there

Our stay at Riad Melhoun was beyond 5 star! We absolutely loved our stay, everything was perfect from the beautiful property, to the amazing staff. This Riad is gorgeous. Our room was very large and spatious, our bed was really comfortable, and our bathroom was beautiful, it also had really great water pressure. We spent every morning up on the rooftop terrace for breakfast before we would head out to explore for the day. It was so quiet and peaceful, I highly recommend. I love the location of the Riad, we were an easy walking distance to just about everything. A 5 minute walk to the palaces, a 5-10 min walk to the Souqs. I love that the Riad was really close to the markets without being right in the middle of them. Noise was never an issue. The Staff at Riad Melhoun are the best of the best. They went above and beyond to be helpful and accomodating.

This Riad was INCREDIBLE - the only accommodation I'd recommend for Marrakech. We were guests for 4 nights and didn't want to leave. The property was amazing as the decor was exquisite, clean and overall beautiful. The staff was out of this world and as a guest you are treated to amazing people who will take care of you. Nor, Mohammad, Jamal, Abdul, Adeesha, Sahira were above and beyond extraordinary taking care of my friend and me (I saw how lovely they were to other guests as well). I highly recommend eating dinner at the Riad and taking a cooking class from Adeesha, Sahira and Jamal - it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience! The Riad was our oasis within a very hectic city. Once we walked through the front door, we were treated to a very calm, quiet and relaxing atmosphere - we spent most of our time at the Riad for this reason.

This is a remarkable place to stay in Marrakech--a traditional riad in the heart of the Medina dating from 16th century. It boasts a courteous staff, extraordinary decor, beautiful rooms, impeccable service, and superb food. The resourceful staff arranged trips for us with knowledgeable guides both within the city and around the country. Marrakech has recovered entirely from the earthquake and is safe for travelers. Do yourself a favor and stay here rather than in a modern \"luxury\" hotel that cannot begin to match what is on offer at Riad Melhoun.

From the moment we were met at the door of Riad Melhoun we felt genuinely welcomed - such a lovely retreat from the madness of the Medina! The riad is beautiful - lovely intricate carvings with quiet nooks and crannies everywhere plus a magic roof-top retreat. Our room - Maya - was on the 2nd floor - spacious, really comfortable bed & pillows - and we couldn’t believe how quiet (& dark!) the room was - couldn’t even hear the calls to prayer. We had 2 dinners here - great meals - each dish explained & fantastic service. When I mentioned that I loved the olives in one of the salads, they bought another bowl of them! Direction wise we found it easy to find our way home after each day of wandering as it’s quite a direct walking route from the Jamaa fna square - after you’ve done it once! Also thoroughly recommend the spa & hammam- more like a western spa experience than a traditional hammam but with a little more nudity :)! We would come back to stay in a heart-beat!

In terms of the actual room, it left something to be desired . The towels were all old and had holes in it. The air conditioning worked but was quite noisy. But everything else was solid ! Recommend this place if you’re looking for a budget stay with great customer service.

Lovely Moroccan Riad with great staff!!

Riad: The riad is very peaceful and beautiful. Authentic moroccan decor and attention to detail is what makes the riad memorable. The riad is beautifully decorated and so are the rooms. The pool area and the roof top were amongst my favorite spots to chill.

Rooms: We stayed in Junior suite and we loved the room. It was spacious, clean and with all the amenities. Also, the decor is traditional which adds a charm to the room

Staff: The staff is super helpful and they entertain all your needs. Mohammed helped me order a pizza from Dominoes nearby (since my husband was craving for it). They helped us with how to plan our sight-seeing and took care of all our needs.

Breakfast: The breakfast was delicious: traditional Moroccan with pancakes and bread.

Location: The riad is just a couple minute walk from the Bahia Palace and the city center. It was very convenient for us and we finished all the nearby sights in a day!!

Would recommend staying in this riad for the hospitality and the ambiance!

The location is roughly a 5-10min walk to the main square, but you wander through all the beautiful shops on your way.
There is lots of restaurants also nearby.
The staff here are AMAZING. Mohamed and the staff went over and above to look after us. THEY made our experience here amazing. Fresh tea on arrival, helping us on WhatsApp when we got lost. Making local recommendations. Talking with us each day when we returned and we shared and showed all our local purchases. Not all Riads are like this, but this made such a difference for our trip and our stay.
The Riad has a small pool area and a restaurant. It is great value for money.
The Hammam and massage is also available at the Riad.
We have stayed in so many different hotels/accommodation. To be exact almost 34 countries in 4 years....this one stood out to us because of the people!
When we come to Marrakech we will definitely stay at this Riad again!!! Thank you so so much

Staff are all very nice especially the cleaning lady and the manager Mohammed. I forgot my gold necklace when i went out and the chamber maid found it in bed and place it on the table.

The riad is a beautiful oasis not far from the melee of the Médina. The staff are extremely welcoming and willing to help with any problems even ones that don’t involve the riad. We had a problem with our flight home and they helped sort it out and arrange earlier transport for us.
We had a hammam and massage there which were very nice.
The rooms are very traditional, I would have preferred a duvet rather than blankets and sheets which kept separating and it was a bit chilly at times because it is their winter. The shower took a while to warm up too but for what we paid I think we got excellent value.
I would definitely recommend this riad to anyone who wants a traditional morrocan welcome in beautifully renovated surroundings.

5 star experience - without the price tag!

Riad Melhoun is one of the loveliest places I've ever stayed. Everything is of a 5 star standard but without the accompanying sky-high price! The decor is stunning - it really wows when you enter the unassuming front door. It's like some of sort of beautiful Aladdin's cave! I posted a few picture on Instagram and as a result a couple of my friends have already booked to stay later this year!
The best thing about the Riad is the wonderful staff. Nor and Mohammed were so friendly, helpful and professional - as were all the staff. This was particularly important to me as a woman travelling alone. I really felt that I had friends to catch up with after returning from a day at the souks or sightseeing! Nothing was too much trouble. Nor gave me some very useful (and trustworthy) tips on haggling and the local sights, and even got some ripped clothing fixed for me. He was also very generous with the mint tea!
I had two evening meals and a hammam during my stay, and both were exceptional. Having your dinner by the pool or on the roof terrace was a very special experience. The rooms are also beautiful, with gorgeous toiletries, and it's a perfect location for the old medina.
I adored this place and really hope I'll be back. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Double room small like prison cell.

Hotel is almost impossible to find. We checked with three taxi drivers and they did not know where it is. We were left far away with our luggage which we had to carry passing the old town. When we checked in we were surprised to find out that the double room is so small that we could not open our luggage as there is no place for it. There is no window, so the room feels like a prison cell. The bathroom is old fashioned but relatively clean. Fortunately, we stayed only one night, otherwise we would have changed the hotel.

This Riad is a magical little Oasis about a 10 min walk from the main square. My friends and I took advantage of the airport pick up which was seamless and took the stress out of being in a new country. once at the riad we were greeted by Mohammed the manager of the hotel. what a gem of a man. he first offered us mint tea and cookies while he explained the property and gave us some handy tip on being in Marrakech. And he also has a great sense of humour! We indulged in the meal on the first night and it was sensational. the salads were especially delicious! and Mohammed even arranged some surprise Christmas decorations and some live local musicians to come perform. and watch out for Mohammad's slick dance moves! hahaha such a fun night. After a peaceful sleep we woke to an amazing breakfast of traditional delights!!! so yummy. Mohammed and his staff are extremely attentive and offer help when ever you need. they also offer hammam and spa services which I highly recommend too. This riad really made our trip magic!

They were happy to fill us in on this.
For the food.. We were exited for the breakfasts every morning. Huge selections of delicious meals were served.

clean. plain. bland breakfast

riad was clean. hotel staff friendly but not good communicators. rather than trying to help you they nod and smile.

breakfast was bland and undesirable. while they suggest that different food provided each day there is too much of it and it is not fresh. such a shame when you read other reviews and the breakfast sounds delicious with home made yoghurts etc

what really put sour taste in the mouth was the owner not refunding me a night stay. confusion came from the staff who did not understand/try to help/pretended not to understand with my problem at start of stay. while the owner forgot to charge me for all extras, I stupidly agreed to pay back by bank transfer once I had left. Only to realise that they would not be refunding me the agreed amount at all.

not knowing where to stay in marrakesh, I read some reviews and narrowed it down to 2 riads, this one and one other. The location of this riad is superb and the staff is extremely friendly and helpfull. It is located 2 minutes away from all the hussle and noise of the night life and open air markets, which could be quite noisy til the wee hours of the night, so this was the purrrfect location. Breakfast was fit for a king and more than enough. taxies were close by and you could negotiate price to around 100 dirhims to go just about anywhere. I would definitely go back !

Beautiful stay

My boyfriend and I visited Marrakech for a long weekend and had a lovely stay at riad melhoun. The service that we received was excellent. In particular from Nour. He was the sweetest, most friendly, always enthusiastic host. Even at 5AM when we woke up to go to on a hot air balloon ride (highly recommended!), he served us breakfast extra early in the courtyard. There was some confusion about the price of the balloon ride which we booked through emma, the manager- however this was cleared up, by Nour.
The riad is in a great location- very easy to walk anywhere. We walked everywhere including the jardin marjorelle and it was absolutely fine and great to explore the old town by foot.
The breakfast provided in the morning is very tasty- I particularly liked the cake which is black (not sure of the name) and the custard pot thing (again not sure of the name). I'd probably say it's most bread/pancake type things though. More fruit or protein would be nice however there is a very good variety of different carb and it's different everyday.
I highly recommend this riad, it is truly beautiful inside and out.

A wonderful welcome from Noor, exceptional service from Mohammed and all the staff were smiling and pleasant. The location is perfect (once you've got your bearings), the food was lovely (the breakfasts were huge!) and overall it was the perfect place to relax in after a busy time in the souks. We really couldn't rate it more highly.
(One tiny point - we had quite a small room above the kitchen and it had the service lift to the roof terrace running up the side of it - which is quite noticeable until you get used to it! Next time we'll ask for a different room!)

This Riad was amazing. Everything about it was fantastic! The rooms were clean and sizable. The area it was in was safe and close to everything you would want to do. But what really makes this a special place was the staff. Everyone was so helpful. It was our first time in Morocco and as visitors we were a little nervous about being around different customs. The staff of Riad Melhoun put us at ease. After 10 minutes of being there we felt as if we were at home.

More than we expected!

The moment I saw this Riad at Hotels.com I knew it was the one. And we were not the least disappointed. The Riad itself is absolutely beautiful. In the mornings (for breakfast) and at the end of afternoons we stayed in the roof terrace. Then in the evening we would go down to the courtyard and read/relax until we were ready for bed. I cannot stress enough how enjoyable that was!
But the best part of the Riad was the staff. Samir was very warm an welcoming, and upon our arrival gave us a great introduction to the city, pointing out in the map great suggestions for restaurants and sights. Mohamed was absolutely incredible, constantly making sure we were \"perfect\"! He even taught us some arabic and became a good friend, hopefully for life! And I urge you to have dinner there once, Mohamed's tagine was beyond words!
The breakfast was also great, a great selection of typical Moroccan dishes. Every day there was at least one dish new to try, and the variety was great. It consists mainly of breads, cakes, pancakes, jams and orange juice.
The Medina is a crazy place, and to experience a proper Riad you need to stay in the Medina. We walked quite a lot (never took taxis), and I have to stay, our location was the best. Once you've been guided there, it was very easy to reach. The street was relatively quiet, always with children playing in it!
We will absolutely recommend this Riad, an hopefully be back to it again and again!

Riad con gran servicio y amabilidad!

El Riad está convenientemente ubicado cerca del Palacio Bahía y El Badi. Es un Riad cómodo, y se respira un aire de amabilidad y buen servicio. Las habitaciones son pequeñas, pero tienen todo lo necesario para tener una buena estadía. Tienen un buen servicio de Hammam y masajes.

Lief personeel en elke dag een heerlijk ontbijt. Ontzettend veel goede tips gekregen voor Marrakech. Je voelt je hier echt gast en geen nummer. Echt een aanrader! Ook op loopafstand van alles. Mocht ik ooit weer naar Marrakech gaan, kom ik hier zeker weer. Groetjes aan Mohamed, Ahmed en Nour. :-)

Prachtige authentieke ruimtes met oog voor details. Personeel met zorg en trots op hun riad. Heerlijk eten, duidelijk met liefde bereid in een kleinschalige keuken.
