I absolutely enjoyed staying at this place .. beautiful palace .. with super friendly stuff , authentic Moroccan food and interior design. If you want to be close to everything and have amazing stay this place is for you . Mr Khalid the owner , his wife and daughter, are super kind and caring. They speak English and French fluently, so you will not have a problem with communication . Mr Khalid or his wife can drive you from and to the airport if you need a ride . Overall I had an amazing experience! Definitely going back there soon .. wishing them all the Gods wonderful blessings.

The Riad Dar Al Walidine is very beautiful and extremely clean
The personnel of the Riad was just amazing. They offered us a service at anytime without any charge. We felt so blessed ! In addition they are so helpful available and flexible with the time, specially with the dinner or the swimming pool. By the way they cook very well. You guys must try the “lamp tajine”!
Negative points :
The Riad is located in the bad area so sometimes it is hard to find a taxi driver to take you back to the Riad.
The breakfast is only sweet. I suggest something salty as well !
The food are too expensive.
In our room we didn’t have a door in the rest room and the shower was terrible without any privacy in the middle of the rooms.
In conclusion we spent a very good time in this Riad but some point must be fixed

A charming venue with a lovely wholesome family feel. Anything we needed was accommodated immediately. Interior and layout of the property was beautiful and the food was great too. We had one small issue with the room and the manager kindly offered us an upgrade with no charge which was very sweet.

Little gem - delightful!

Very beautiful Riad with welcoming owners. We were treated with respect and given access to all facilities. Great quality bed - very comfortable and very clean bedding. Rooms are spacious with a large bathroom. Riad is in a peaceful area - a little isolated - so taxi or car needed but great for couples. Tasty good quality traditional breakfast with fresh produce. Transport to airport just 200MAD. We loved every moment of our stay and will definitely return.

I cannot reccomend Riyaad Dar Al Walidine enough.
Our room, the lobby and pool area were beatutiful, clean and spacious.
the hosts were so lovely and helpful, from organising transfers, tours and dinner options.
I would come back here without hesitation.
It was also lovely being outside of the hustle and bustle of the medina, and having a little oasis to come home to.

Very modern riad, lovely decor that offers a good mix of traditional rooms with modern touches such as swimming pool and motorized blinds in the dining room. This property exceeded my expectations from the photos. The owner was a lovely lady and catered to customers' requests such as printing boarding passes.

You will need a taxi to restaurants or shops which is easy to do. I will come back to this property.

Service not up to Mark; Expensive food

They didn't have hot water first day. we had to shower in freezing cold water. They said they would fix, but never checked back with us. We had dinner at the Riad one night. Food was good, but very expensive. Suggest you eat out instead. They hadn't cleaned the dining area until 8:30 am next day. Had left all the dirty plates and dishes on the table

Excellent breakfast and great service from the staff who were friendly and attentive. A little far from the centre but still possible to walk as long as you don't mind getting lost in the medina. Plunge pool looks good- too cold to use it when I was there.

The real review

I was completely uncomfortable the last day of my stay where the staff of the hotel retaliated and made our stay uneasy because of they thought we wrote a bad review and didn’t want to pay for our stay. They served us cold food, kept knocking on our door with multiple people in our faces late at night, peeking through the room window where they can clearly see us, moving furniture at 3 am while we were trying to sleep and became disrespectful with their words and unprofessional, and over charged us to the point we left hours earlier before check out. upon check in I told them a few amenities weren’t working and they had yet to attempt to fix the problems during the course of our three night stay. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel unless it’s a quick in and out stay or if they fix the shower pressure, ac, and the foul smell of the pipes. As they are renovating and adding a top floor it gets noisy. The riad is a beautiful place but location is about 15 mins away from the old Médina and not one can knew the address of the hotel. It was hard getting back.

Friendly and helpful

This is a family run Riad. The family and staff are really friendly and helpful, offering advice in this different world of Marrakech. For us the Riad is not in the best position as it is not in the Médina but outside and opposite side to the main attractions. This means you either have to run the gauntlet of the less touristic areas and heavy uncomfortable badgering from the locals or catch taxis and learn how to barter with the drivers pretty quickly. It is also placed on a building site with building going on itself.

Owner was very helpful

Room is great and the riad is beautiful. We had to leave at 2:30am in order to catch our early flight. The owner was nice enough to wake up to make sure the car+driver we had booked to the airport had arrived and to see us off.

Note that the riad is not right at the curb of the street, but as of this writing, is set about 20-30 metres back from the curb. Taxis may have trouble locating the building in this new development area. Just a note of caution.

Beautiful

Enough can’t be said about the staff, hotel and efforts afforded to my girlfriend and I whilst staying at this establishment.

The highlight must be the attentiveness the owners and staff afforded us as a couple from the moment we arrived to our departure. The efforts the owners went to for my girlfriend on her birthday we won’t forget.

For anybody looking to get away and have that special touch I would recommend.

Thank you for such a memorable stay and were most grateful for the excellent cuisine, attention to detail and advice in all our requests. You will be hard fetched to find such hosts anywhere, certainly is a family I will remember as people and as hoteliers. Top effort and thank you. XXXX

Home away from home!

Wonderful hotel where they treat you like family. Hotel is exactly like the pictures. Food was wonderful and it was nice to come back to friendly faces everyday. Close enough to the Medina ($5 taxi anywhere you want to go). Tile work in the hotel is esquisite. Owners were very helpful in booking excursions and giving great tips to help make for the best stay

Good value accommodation

Grand accommodation near to Marrakesh old medina. It is within the walking distance from the most destinations in old medina.
