Overall I had a lovely time at Riad Boussa. The staff are truly sweethearts, so attentive as well. This riad really gives you a home like feeling. It is located in the Medina so it is a bit busy getting to the riad however once you get inside it’s extremely peaceful. The decor is nice and it’s a quiet environment. The breakfast consisted of coffee, juice, fruit, spreads and two forms of bread. 10/10 I would stay here again.

The staff at Riad Boussa are a delight. They treat you with so much care and hospitality. The Riad is also located in a great location close to the action of Jemaa el-Fnaa. Also quite close to Madrasa Ben Youssef and Le Jardin Secret.

Love this Riad!
Now I understand what people are talking about when mentioning the hospitality of the Moroccan people. Super clean, best location and the workers at the Riad are sooo nice.
Book it!

Both Ahmed and Mehmet are really nice and were always ready to help us out in whichever way possible. Our breakfast was always super delicious. We recommend this place for anyone looking for the authentic riad feel and good hospitality. Thank you for giving us a great experience!

Our family of 4 (with two boys, ages 13 and 11) stayed four nights in Riad Boussa and we LOVED it there! The riad is beautiful and comfortable and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and filling; mint tea was also served later in the day. We managed to find the riad by walking in and using Google maps, but it was still a bit confusing the first time (there is no signage to the riad and the door is inconspicuous); others may want to take up the riad’s offer to help get you and your stuff there.

The riad is an excellent location, an island of tranquility within the vibrant and bustling medina. We heartily recommend staying at Riad Boussa and would love to stay there again next time we’re in Marrakesh.

Just book this Riad, you will not be dissapointed!

Marrakech is now a special place for us and a big part of that was our stay at Riad Boussa. The hosts, Ahmed and Mohammed went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and safety, always with a smile. Extremely well maintained property, just as shown in the pictures. Great service, including daily cleaning of rooms. The hosts also helped plan and coordinate our sightseeing activities. Just cannot say enough about their hospitality! It is just not a 'business' for them. I can say this with conviction because we had to stay at another Riad for a night during this trip (mix up in booking on our end) and the difference was night and day! So save yourself some time and just book this Riad. It is worth the money!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Riad Boussa! The staff, Ahmad Mohammad and Karima were amazing and really made sure we had everything we needed, always offerings things to drink and preparing delicious breakfasts. The Riad is well maintained and quiet. Watching the stars from the roof was amazing.

This property definitely had its pros and cons. The biggest con was that the walls were very thin, so you hear everything - people in the next room talking, the fountain in the lobby trickling. The other con is that breakfast is very average, it’s mostly just bread.

The pros are that it is a convenient location in the Medina. Whether or not the mayhem of the Medina is right for you is another story - but at least Riad Boussa is on a quiet side street.

After reading so much about amazing riads and exceptional service, I think my expectations were very high. This Riad was alright.

This Riad is truly beautiful, it looks even better than the pictures! And what made it even better was the staff, so friendly, welcoming and helpful. It is located inside the old medina, so you’re within walking distance of many of the highlights of Marrakech. The breakfast was also great up in the top terrace. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a 2 night stay at Riad Boussa on September 16, 2022. From the minute we entered through the front door we knew we had made the right choice. Ahmed and Mohammad are extremely friendly and helpful and always make themselves available. Ahmed walked with us to the main road of the medina the first time we ventured out on our own, and explained how to get to the Jemaa el-Fnaa. He gave us his number in case we needed his assistance in getting back. It was so easy once he showed us the first time, that we didn't need to call him. The riad is about a 10 minute walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa. Sarah was also super nice and very helpful. We enjoyed all of their company while staying at the riad. They truly made us feel like family.

The Riad was beautifully decorated, clean, and breakfast was delicious with freshly squeezed orange juice. They will ask where your preference to sit and eat is. Our preference was to be served on their rooftop terrace, which is absolutely beautiful. Our room was a good size room with a private bathroom. The Riad's location was excellent. It is about a 10 minute walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa.

I would definitely stay here on a return trip to Marrakech.

I can’t recommend Riad Boussa highly enough!
The Riad is a small, beautiful & genuinely quiet and calm oasis considering it’s only a 5 min walk from the main square.
Rooms are spotlessly clean with daily service throughout our stay. Breakfast was traditional Moroccan, fresh & tasty and served to the terrace each day after arranging a time the night before.
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel like friends.
The host, Ahmed, ensured we had everything we could need, and took time showing us maps and what we should pay for things. He recommended and booked restaurants, a spa visit and a day trip to the Atlas Mountains. He is an absolute credit to the hotel and truly made our trip.
If you enjoy the personal attention a smaller property can provide then please don’t consider booking anywhere else - you will be very well looked after here.

Oasis In The Souk

My wife and I went to Marrakech not knowing what to expect. We read the good reviews of the Riad Boussa and made reservations. It didn't disappoint in any way. Michelle, The French owner was great answering our emails before and scheduled a driver from the airport to PLAZA JEMAA EL-FNAA where you can't drive beyond and a man with a cart takes your luggage to the Riad on the other side of this exciting and different market. At first we were concerned we would never find our way back or around the labyrinth of alley ways of the souk but with Michelle's directions and backtracking once it became very easy. The Riad Boussa is a little bit of a ways down some side alleys of the souk which is nice as it is very quite.
If you can handle a walk, it is well worth it. After walking though the historically old streets you come up to this unassuming door way. As you enter, the interior has been beautifully renovated. We were welcomed by extremely nice and courteous staff who served us mint tea while we sat in the beautifully decorated courtyard and filled out our registration cards. After Michelle took time to answer any of our questions and to get us situated in the Souk and gave recommendations for places to eat.
Like everything else our room had been very tastefully renovated in the local style which was unlike any place else we have stayed at. Breakfast was served every morning on a very tranquil roof top.
Michelle and her staff were so polite and helpful and the Riad is Beautiful.
