A very lovely, well maintained and clean riad. Centrally located with a 3 minute walk to the Medina main square. A delicious traditional Moroccan breakfast was served on the rooftop terrace daily.
More importantly, a special shout out to the hotel staff (Abdelaziz, AbdelAlt, AbdelAtif, Fati and Ayman) that made our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. They were extremely friendly, professional and helpful with our questions about Marrakesh
We enjoyed many great conversations with them throughout our stay!

We had a great stay! We had four people, and everyone had their own room, bathroom and queen bed. It was quiet, away from all the noise of mopeds and late night stalls, and you couldn’t hear the prayers. Location was great, close to the square, many restaurants, and the souks! Abdul was very helpful, as was the rest of the staff. Breakfast was delicious and on time every morning- Hyat was so nice and accommodating.
The rooftop was very nice, as was the plunge pool inside. All the tile work was beautiful and felt very authentic. Each space had an AC unit, and the top would open up to the sky. We did schedule the Hammam and massage through the Riad and it was worth it. We felt very safe, the people were kind, highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Riad L'Etoile D'Orient. The riad was beautiful, clean, and in a great location, only a few minutes walk from the main square. Everyone made us feel so welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast was nice, especially the fresh orange juice. We also booked a hamman and massage package which was so relaxing and within a reasonable price.

Our only negative view was the website mentions our Riad had a pool, but this is only offered in the private Riads. So this was a little disappointing.

A special thank you to Fatima, Abdul Azeez, and Abdul Latif for their exceptional hospitality and kindness. They truly made our experience memorable. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it!

So happy I chose this riad for my stay in Marrakech - it's in the heart of the medina and within walking distance of the key sites, with Jemaa El Fnaa, Koutoubia mosque, the souks, Bahia palace and the madrassa all within 10-15 minutes on foot.
It was very quiet, rooms and bedding were comfortable and spotless, and the on-site hammam was superb.
Fati, Abdulaziz and the rest of the team were incredible hosts. They went out of their way to make sure I enjoyed every minute of my stay at the riad and in the city. I had the best time. I can't recommend this riad enough...10/10

We really enjoyed our experience in this riad for 4 nights. Hanan was lovely and prepared breakfast for us every day and even took care of our laundry and cleaned all the rooms and showers every day. The location was a 6-7 min walk from the main square which was great. While the walk felt a little shady the first night, all the riads are in narrow lanes.

We enjoyed the hot tub and terrace. Only thing is that in Moroccan style some of the showers have no glass doors , so you need to be careful of that. Towels could have been slightly better quality given that it is a 4 star.

Overall, we had an amazing experience and made our Marrakech trip extremely memorable. The kids said the riad was the best part of the trip.

The room was super comfortable with a great bed and separate shower toilet and basin rooms. The decor throughout is very attractive and the roof terrace is delightful. We had a delicious, plentiful breakfast every morning on the terrace. We enjoyed the hamasn and a massage and it’s great to be able to go to your room rather than out onto the street afterwards.

Possibly the best of all, though, was the staff. They were friendly, helpful and efficient and very good humoured even though it was Ramadan and they were fasting all day.

Would highly recommend a stay in this brilliant Riad, just a few minutes away from the Jemaa el-fnaa.

Great little boutique hotel in the Medina. It’s located right in the square where all the shops are. The customer service and staff was excellent. The staff really went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable it felt like home. I left one of my bags at the hotel and the driver brought it to the airport for me so I wouldn’t miss my flight. I really appreciated that. The food was good and authentic. I would stay there again.

We've just returned from a fantastic trip to Marrakech, thanks in no small part to the staff at this riad. My friend stayed here a few months ago and recommended it, and I'm so glad he did. It's right in the Medina, and about a two minute walk from the main square (this can be 10-15 minutes if it's busy: think people, buggies, mopeds, carts, kids, all jostling through, to eat, to shop. Great fun).

I'd recommend arranging ahead of time for the riad to collect you from the airport. We found our bearings once there but I think it'd have been pretty overwhelming to try on that first day with luggage.

The riad itself is beautiful, peaceful and cool, though rooms have climate control so you can adjust the temperature. I did blast a bit of heat in the evening as it was still quite cool. We stayed in two rooms as they 'upgraded' us for four nights while a bigger room was empty. Other reviews have said the mattresses are hard. I'd say firm, rather than hard. Perfectly comfortable, in both rooms (Dana and Giana). Dana was much smaller but beautiful. Giana was much more comfortable as it was more spacious, but no better quality as both were wonderful. My other half thought Giana was noisier as closer to the thoroughfare but that was nothing earplugs didn't fix. You'll hear the call to prayer too but again, you don't come to Marrakech for peace and quiet. Both rooms had international television channels though the reception was hit and miss. Staff did their best to change TV boxes et

Quiet, clean, beautiful. Staff are incredible. They gave us a wonderful welcome, were very friendly faces throughout our stay and gave us our breakfast in to go containers when they heard we had an early day at Ait Ben Haddou the next day. We felt we could come to the desk with any and every question! Our room was also perfect: beautifully decorated, great amenities, pristine and peaceful. They also have a cat called Mimi! Overall, 10.

I think the property on Expedia is misleading. It’s not clear when booking that this property is 3 different Riads.
I did try to speak to someone on the day we arrived as we were expecting the beautiful jacuzzi, however the jacuzzi we had was old and hidden away on the rooftop. Not happy with it at all so spent money at another hotel for the day. I hope you can appreciate this. Maybe some compensation would be appreciated. I look forward to hearing g from you.

The place was spotlessly clean, beautiful, and felt incredibly safe — which made our time there even more relaxing and enjoyable. We truly appreciated the care and effort that went into making our stay special.

Highly recommended, and we can’t wait to come back!

Séjour vraiment extraordinaire. Le riad est vraiment magnifique et confortable. La situation géographique est exceptionnel au centre de tout et vraiment près de la pla Jamaa El Elena. Le personnel est toujours présent et disponible 24 heures par jour. Hamou et Taha sont excellent et offre un service de très haute qualité et personnalisé. Déjeuner très copieux et varié. Je recommande le repas du soir à 20 euros seulement servi parfaitement et excellent. Bravo à toute l équipe. Les chambres sont très belles et très spacieuses merci.

From drop off by Cafe De France and getting to Riad( someone walked us provided by transport) to welcome by Azeldine to confirm plans with us for our time there to dinner on rooftop and breakfast was wonderful! Room was beautifully done, nice mix of traditional and modern with great shower! We only stayed 1 night as we were being picked up for Sahara Desert 3 day trip

Experience at the riad Letoile Dorient was amazing. Entire process from airport pickup to the trek in the extremely busy medina to our riad was amazing and memorable. Once we reached the riad we received a warm welcome with tea and biscuits along with great tips and a thorough walkthrough for our stay. Fati , Azadine, the night crew and the lovely ladies at the breakfast bar made this stay unforgettable and we wish we had stayed longer. It was a bitter sweet goodbye but we will be back and we will be sure to book the gienna suite again at Letoile Dorient

The Riad was absolutely stunning! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a delightful fragrance and big smiles from the friendly staff. The manager warmly welcomed my family and me, taking the time to mark nearby attractions on a map, including closing times and entry fees. The property itself was cozy and intimate, exactly as depicted in the pictures.

The staff were incredibly friendly and always made time to chat with us, offering great recommendations for places to eat and visit. Even if you don’t plan on buying internet, getting around is easy—one of the day staff ( sorry i forgot her name) introduced me to an offline map, which really helped us explore the area safely and independently. I found this gesture very considerate.

Another staff member, Abdul, was especially helpful. He guided us on local prices by checking out pictures of items we were interested in and was super kind to my family. Abdul also answered our questions about the local culture with a great sense of humor, often joking with my parents, which made us feel right at home.

Overall, the Riad was more than just a place to stay—it felt like a safe haven where we could truly relax and enjoy our holiday. It made our trip even better!

Fabulous Riad with Great Location

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this Riad. I received excellent service from beginning to end with pickup, excellent accommodations, friendly and helpful staff, delicious breakfasts, beautiful room, comfortable bed, fabulous suggestions for restaurants and day trips, air conditioning though rarely needed, easy communication and a final drop off at my driver pickup location. The location is fabulous! It’s quieter than the main streets but only minutes away from shopping and great restaurants. The laundry service was also much appreciated. This Riad is very clean with excellent housekeeping and spa services. The staff are all very kind, friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this Riad!

First off, the staff led by Ibrahim and Hassan were great. Main issue is that the property, which would have been very nice at one time, is not maintained at the advertised 5-star level. The A/C did not work very well, and the internet was spotty at best. The bed was quite uncomfortable, as it was not the king-sized mattress advertised, but two twin-sized beds of uneven heights pushed together.

Great location. Very convenient to many major attractions by walk. Staff is always helpful and friendly. We love the beautiful breakfast here, they change some of the items everyday to make your first meal not boring. This is a riad in Médina so the taxi just cannot bring you right in front of the entry point. But they provide a porter (free of charge) to bring you and your luggage from the taxi drop off point which is only a 8 minutes walk.

Lovely stay but noisy

Stayed here for 3 nights recently with my husband, first time staying in a Riad and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Nestled in amongst one of the really busy streets off the main square but once inside you wouldn't think you where so close. Beds extremely comfortable, had a great night's sleep the first two nights only thing that ruined it for us was our last night we came back around 9pm as we had to leave for an early flight, a large group of around 10 had just arrived, they were having food in the small restaurant located just beside our room, we could hear everything, laughing shouting, people outside our room smoking and talking loudly, wasn't until my husband went out to speak to reception at 11.30pm that they were asked to move but it still carried on upstairs till around 1.30am! We are Absolutely for people coming on holiday to have a good time but these rooms have zero sound proofing you hear everything going on outside your room. First two nights we must have been extremely lucky as the place was quiet. But it just took the shine of our stay off a little bit but still a lovely place to stay.

The property itself is a bit difficult to get to if its your first time but after the first day you’ll get around the area, especially with the help of the staff at this Riad. I was warmly welcomed with a nice mint tea and a proper explanation of the Map, with places to go, things to see and how rich the culture is.

As I only spent one night here… I had most of my services with this Riad.. the Hammam bath and massage, the meal.. everything was done with excellence . I also booked the Riad just for the experience which I got. If you’re used to the city life and don’t like to experience something different then this is not for you .

Overall.. I was satisfied

The pics of this riad don’t do it justice at all. It really is gorgeous. The location is amazing. It’s in the Medina close to jemaa al fna, but all you hear once you’re inside are the birds chirping. Nice cotton sheets and amazing breakfast. The breakfast is amazing. I didn’t use the jacuzzi because it was a little dirty, but there is also a shower on the roof to cool off if you want to sunbathe. Staff was super nice. Their spa itself is beautiful, but the hammam/massage was pretty basic and borderline substandard. That said, it is very affordable so still worth it.

Great staff, great location

An amazing place with amazing staff. Upon arriving the manager took time to explain the area, all the do's and dont's and was very accommodating with all our requests (including printing of board pass). The riad is located only 500 m from the central square, yet is tucked away so that it feels like a retreat after a hard day of negotiations at the market. The great location allowed us to quickly duck back to the riad whenever we needed - this was vital as my 4 year old son needed pool time (yes there is a jacuzzi) to cool off

The staff members were very helpful and informative. My guest who is vegetarian had a delicious meal that was custom made for her by the chef. My dinner which I chose from the menu they have at the property was equally delicious. Best part was having dinner on the terrace. The location is near a busy area with lots of shops and many things happening as the same time. This is the experience you want to have when you stay in Marrakesh. I recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay within the Medina near the souks.
