There wasnt 24 hour concierge. I arrived to a rude person who i apparently woke up. He didn't want to let me in . When he did my luggage wasn't safely stored. The advertised breakfast wasnt offered 730-1030am. I had tried to contact the hotel about a traveler joining me on july 29 and got no response and when she joined me the manager freaked out and cursed at us, it was threatening and weird. He would not calm down even when we offered to pay the fee for another person. He even said he would call the police and tried to bar us physically from our room and belongings . I over heard other guests saying theit toilet was not working. No one was helpful or concerned about guests.

Check-in was a bit slow and the rooms are smaller than they appear (no separate bath/toilet in our room). Nonetheless, the rooms were clean. The hotel is located in an alley/street that cars can't access so you have to walk about a block plus with your bags; however it is near a large square and a number of restaurants.

Horrifying. I booked 2 rooms. Each had beds to sleep 4. The guy who checked us in was yelling at us as we showed up with 4 people in one room and 3 in another. My original booking said 2 for one room and he would not budge. He seemed to be stuck on the head count. He charged us for 2 more people after much negotiating (I was called a bad woman at one point) even though the small print said 4 per room. At one point he locked us in the Riad and kept us hostage and would not let us leave until we paid for the other 2 people. He kept saying \"not my problem, not my problem\". As a group of women we felt very unsafe.

At breakfast, we were given white bread and jam. That's it. When we asked if there was anything else for breakfast, the lady lost her temper and started yelling at us. We are not sure what the issue was here. We were nothing less than polite Canadians.

Since this stop we continued our journey to other riads in Morocco and the hospitality was nothing less than amazing.

If I could give this property a less than zero rating and the staff and service a less than zero rating, that is exactly what I would give it. I travel extensively and this was one if not the worst experience I’ve ever had at a hotel.
The male manager at one point actually locked the door from the inside to prevent us from leaving. I stayed on my own with no issues other than the property is ill maintained and not at all like the pictures which are a misrepresentation of the actual disarray of the property. The tub that is featured in pictures had green algae? Fungus? Growing inside. Absolutely disgusting. The seat next to it had bird poop dried on it so clearly not useable. When my female friends arrived the male manager became hostile, angry and threatening us with calling the police for having too many people in the room. However, the website clearly states that you can have up to four people in the room.. we left two days before our booking was to expire and one of our friends actually left Morocco early just due to the stress this entire situation caused us! We were ready to lose money as opposed to stay any days longer. WARNING - DO NOT STAY AT THIS PROPERTY- one of the WORST places I’ve ever stayed at! I will also add that the female stuff that’s responsible for setting out breakfast started to yell at my friends because they asked if they could have fruit with the breakfast meal absolutely unnecessary. Staff there are clearly agitated not really sure why

We were very well taken care off by Souafian who ensured we had a comfortable stay at the Riad. He coordinated a day trip for us, arranged drop off to the airport and provided us helpful tips during our stay. We appreciate his warm hospitality.

The room and facilities were extremely clean. The one suggestion we have is to improve the lighting in the room. Room was not bright and it felt dark throughout the day. Otherwise, a very comfortable stay.

The place is beautiful and very well located inside the Medina. The staff is awesome and it really makes you feel in a tradicional riad rather than a hotel. The facilities are very good , almost impecable, close to a high end luxury hotel.

Buuut , I have mixed feelings, would not recommend it for more than 3 days. I stayed 7 days and after the four day you would start missing the advantages of a proper hotel ( food options , heated pool , room service , bigger spaces to hang around ). The breakfast is really basic , you will feel tired after the third day.

But overall, very good experience

I was first apprehensive about booking a riad instead of a hotel but I am really glad I booked the Riad, especially this one! Good location - right next to Badi Palace and only 10-15 minute walk away from Djemma el Fna. Right in the hustle and bustle of the Medina but it is off the main road so it is quiet.
The room was clean and comfortable. I was a bit taken aback at the toilet not actially having a door but more of a wall. The breakfast was not what you would get in a hotel buffet breakfast. It mainly consisted of pancakes, morroccan parathas and bread with jams and butters and omelette upon request. It was delicious and filling nonetheless!
Staff were very helpful and tried to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. I would like to particularly point out Soufiane who was the most friendly and lovely host - booking our excursions and taxis and waking up early for us on the days we would be out early! He really is an asset to the hotel! My husband loved the Riad. We would spend every evening after a long, hot day walking, dipping our feet in the pool.
I would definitely stay at this Riad again. So much more calming and relaxing than a hotel.

Stayed two great night there and tried to book again on our last night in Marrakech after Sahara desert trip to Merzouga, but Riad Turquoise was full unfortunately. Sofian assisted us with onother Riad but loved Turquoise. Whenever we return to Marrakesh my wife and I will only book at Riad Turquoise.

The Ryad location is perfect, walking distance to the market, the Menara mall and only 15 to 20 mn to the centre where you find trade store , cafes and restaurants.
The staff ( khadija , Ilham and sophian) are very nice and attentive if you need anything just ask. The decor is what you expect from a Ryad style but it needs updating, they do really need a shower in the terrace to cool down when you are sunbathing as there is no pool just a small jacuzzi. Would I stay there again a big Yes.

The room was very small, no windows, dark, and the bathroom was not even private! It didn't even have a door so it was really uncomfortable to not have privacy even while in the bathroom. There is no reception/ check in, so that was confusing when we arrived. Furthermore, a staff member thought i had written a negative review while we were there (which i did not) and asked my husband to get me to change it. I wonder how many other reviews may have been changed due to the hotel staff asking guests to do so. Doesnt seem very honest to me, so I think it's important i be honest here. I would not stay here again. Both myself and my husband did not feel comfortable, and it is in no way a 4-star by western standards.

Finding this location took about an hour. We had no directions nor landmarks to go by and GPS directions are confused by the Medina. It would be helpful to note how close the nearest parking is located. The Riad is located close to the center of the Market square and is conveniently located and walking distance to most everything. Parking on the streets is provided by the \"Gardiennes\" which is unofficial but accepted. They will usually charge you between 5 and 20 dirham, depending on the length of your stay. We paid about 20 dirham for overnight. The Hotel staff were very helpful and attentive. The Riad is in need of attention. Both pools are cloudy and is in need of chemicals to balance their PH.. The door to our room was split in places where

I honestly didn't know what to expect of a Riad, having never traveled to Morocco before. All I can say is I'd never bother going to any other Riad but the Turquoise when (not if) I return! I can't imagine a friendlier host than Soufiane- the reviews on here are accurate, he really is so welcoming and warm! The room (and Riad in general) was spotless, and breakfast was delicious. We also booked to be collected/dropped off at the airport, and on both occasions things ran completely smoothly and on time.

As for the location of the Riad- there are plenty of small shops within a few steps to buy water or supplies, if needed. We were worried about getting lost but found our way to the souks and Jemaa el Fna on our first try- it's virtually a straight shot there from the Riad Turquoise.

Marrakech - chaotic and confusing

Nice enough but not sure why it had such rave reviews. Breakfast was very basic and although an abundance of fruit and delicacies locally the nearest we got was orange juice and 4 types of pancake/bread, none if which I'd care to eat again. Room lovely and kept very clean.
Going out is an experience and you need to be quite tough skinned and be prepared to turn a blind eye or not get too distressed by the attitude towards and use of animals.
The main square needs policing and some of the sellers can be very aggressive.
Road signs would also help.
Needs the Morrocan tourist board (possibly this doesn't exist) to really sort out everything. You'd think they despised you being there and would have spent much more if we felt safe and also could go out without worrying about getting lost and then hassled.

Riad Turquoise is very conveniently located inside Medina with easy access to Jemaa El - Fana by foot. Staff was very helpful but sign language was mostly required to communicate during the day as they only speak French or Arabic. Their care taker speak good enough English to guide you and arrange anything you need. No in-house restaurant but they can cook food from the menu in their Kitchen at very reasonable price.

Tours and taxis arranged by the hotel was also very good but lot more expensive than what you can get from outside. There are plenty of options if you want to arrange a tour to any other place.

Excellent staff, tradition at its best. It felt like i was at home away from home for 5 days. One of the day we decided to stay in and enjoy the hotel and didn't realise how the time flew and ordered for lunch at the last minute. Unlike other big hotels where once kitchen is closed its \"CLOSED\", Riad staff Ms Kadeeja offered to cook especially for us. We were totally touched by her gesture.

Welcoming and Relaxing

This was my first time in Marrakesh, and I was staying by myself for a few days to attend a wedding. I was very thankful to Soufiane who was very welcoming and came to greet me as I arrived!

The room was a good size with a comfortable bed with more than enough pillows. The windows open out to the courtyard, but it took a day to discover the amazing roof garden, which is lovely at sunrise with the White Stalks nesting in the near distance. Delicious Msemen pancakes for breakfast with fresh orange juice was a great start to the day!

From the Raid, it is a short walk to the Koutoubia Mosque landmark where you can easily get your bearings. I had a very pleasant stay and highly recommend it!

Three days in Marrakech

Got in after dark and the manager was out in the alley with a flashlight to guide us. It's in a good location, close to things you'll want to see, the market (bazaar) is a short distance away, and there are plenty of shopping and food options including a full service bar that is on the small square by the riad, the Kozy Bar. There's an upper level terrace that overlooks the square, good cocktails, and reasonable prices, this will gain significance after a few days in Morocco. The riad has nice features, a pool in the lobby, a relaxing den to compare notes with other guests, and a rooftop terrace with minimal views and a hot tub that was not operating during our stay. Breakfast seems to be the norm for Morocco; coffee/tea, juice, and two or three types of bread with various spreads.

Amazing Hidden Gem!!!

We stayed 6 nights at the Riad during New Years in Marrakech. We are a family of 4 with two children ages 1 and six. The room was very spacious with a baby cot and a twin size roll away bed for the kids. There was plenty of room for the kids to run around and for us parents to relax after a busy day exploring Marrakech! The room was decorated beautifully, the entire Riad is beautiful, a traditional Riad. We opted to have breakfast each morning which was really good, plenty of fruits and different types of bread. The Ladies of the house warmed milk each morning for the baby which was very sweet of them:) We felt very safe and welcomed the entire time and most decimately come back to stay on our next visit to Marrakech! P.S. The hotel staff is Awesome both the morning crew and the night time manager!!!

Very friendly staff, beautiful small Riad on the edge of the medina, 15 minutes stroll to the main square. Very peaceful to escape from the noise and chaos of the souks, enjoyed the sun terrace which got the sun until late afternoon. Chilly evenings and mornings meant the air con was needed on heat setting which warmed the room fine. We stayed in the fuschia suite up on the roof, very spacious and well worth the upgrade price. Pleasant breakfast of bread, jams, hot drinks, fresh orange juice, pancakes etc. Airport transfer dropped us in the Place ferblantier a couple of minutes walk away as the Riad entrance is down a narrow path with no cars. Enjoyed roof top terrace of kosybar serving local wines just round the corner in the square.

Wonderful Riad with Excellent Staff

The Riad is gorgeous and will make you feel like you were a princess in a past life. The staff is wonderful and super helpful, especially Soufian, who showed me how to make Moroccan tea, which I couldn't get enough of.

It's location is very close to the Jewish quarter where you can buy spices in the various souks. Also highly recommend the KosySpa in the adjacent square, I'm hooked on Hammams!

Its about a 10-15 min walk through the souk paths to the main square, Jemma el-Fna, but I preferred The Mellah (Jewish Quarter) as it was less chaotic. Ask the hotel staff for costs of items before heading out to shop as the souls will try to charge tourist prices.

Could get Morrocan wine in this Riad which is worth a try. Take the offer of the Riad organising airport transfers - cheaper than most other ways but very safe and reliable.

Lovely Riad near Baadi Palace

We spent 5 nights at Riad Turquoise. The Medina is very busy and smelly but interesting! There are not a huge amount of sites to see so 4 days is ample unless you take a day trip like we did. We had a fab day touring the 3 valleys with Hassan (arranged by the Riad),it made a great break from the city in the middle of our 5 days.

Unfortunately one of the main sites Baadi Palace was closed for refurbishment which was a shame but we did pretty much the rest of what Marrakesh had to offer easily in our timescale to the extent that we had pretty much a full day at the Riad chilling and sunbathing one day.

I struggled with the narrow lanes, smells and traffic (especially the mopeds/bikes) so we didn't venture too far into the Souks.

The traffic in the Medina is crazy with a capital C - taxis, cars, buses, bikes, pushbikes, pedestrians all going in all directions almost to difficult to describe - we didn't see nay accidents but that was more by luck than judgement I'm sure.

Taxis are the best way to get around and plentiful - always barter and don't pay more than 30 MAD inside the Medina and 50 if you go outside the Medina and also to the airport.

Outside the Medina the new town is cleaner and smarter - some good places to eat in Gueliz.

Majorelle Gardens definitely worth a visit.

The room was big, beautiful and clean.

Absolutely loved our room and the decor of hotel. The style is unique and added to the Moroccan holiday feel. The hotel staff Sufiyan was very friendly, very sweet and helpful. Always there with a big smile and made the most amazing breakfast. The first thing he said when we arrived was this is your home. A very warm welcome. We felt taken care of especially having close contact with the manager who was helpful and was happy to accommodate. We even had breakfast at 530am before our very early flight! We would go back and stay there. The rooms all have a theme so I would stay in a different themed room. There is also a rooftop which is perfect to relax in. A family feel and you feel like it's your own apartment.

Lovely Riad

Lovely Riad, excellent staff but needs a mini fridge. I went in summer and had to keep asking for water, would have preferred to be able to have this on hand in the room. Also the bathroom needs a door although I accept it may not be in keeping with the style I still think for some this would be a requirement. However apart from points mentioned I had a lovely stay.

Perfect riad!

We had the most amazing stay in this beautiful riad. All the staff were lovely, welcoming and helpful. This place is stunning. The área is safe and the roof terrace is so peaceful. The best place I have ever stayed and I hope to return soon! Thank you everyone for making us feel at home. The rooms were spotless, breakfast delicious and everything was perfect.

Riad in Marrakesh

George and the lovely staff at the Riad Turquoise were really friendly and helpful and nothing was to much trouble. The position of the Riad was great for us as not to close to the centre of old Marrakesh Madine but a good base to explore from and near the lovely Bahia Palce, Saadian Tombs and Royal Palace. From the moment we arrived to when we sadly had to leave our rooms and breakfast were all kept clean and made fresh each day.

Beautiful Riad with wonderful service\n

I stayed for 2 nights at the Riad Turquoise with my sister, for a celebratory trip for our 50th birthdays.
We received a warm welcome from Khadija who brought us traditional mint tea and cakes then explained about the Riad, where to eat out (with written directions). During our stay, she booked a camel ride excursion for us, took us to meet the tour bus, gave us advice about how much to pay for taxis etc etc.
Sofiane was also delightful, he booked us a taxi back to the airport and gave us delicious breakfasts. Very good location.
It was a shame that the manager Mr Georges was away, but we want to return with our families and will certainly go back to the Riad Turquoise.

Great Riad in perfect location

We arrive very late at night (Ryanair flight form Madrid arrives at 10.30PM) but Mr. Georges had sent us a car to the airport (at our request) which carried us to the port of the Riad almost (only a block to walk) ..what a pleasant surprise to discover this oasis in the middle of the Medina!!
Great breakfast every morning, so close to Jamma El Fna square, we had a great time in this cozy place...totally recommendable!

oasis of calm amid the hustle and bustle

Stepping through the door from the dust and bustle of the medina you enter into a calm and peaceful environment. Greeted by Georges and his wonderful staff with mint tea, we were able to relax after our journey. We'd booked a suite and were shown the fushia room which was large and beautifully furnished. Good wifi, lots of hot water, fluffy towels and robes, plentiful breakfast - all in all top notch.
I emailed Georges beforehand to arrange collection from the airport (15 euros in a decent car with air con, well worth it) and the same man took us back at the end of our trip.
Food- we arranged to eat on the first night in the riad (book in advance, 20 euros pp) We found great places to eat nearby, so no need to go too far afield at night.
All in all a wonderful stay in a traditional environment - thank you

Hidden Oasis next to El Badi Palace

This is definitely one of Marrakech's hidden Riads. If coming from the airport, definitely arrange collection, else you might lose hours trying to find it.

Once here, you are greeted by welcoming staff, a very helpful overnight 'man' who looks after you if you get back late and makes a wonderful omelette for breakfast. The rooms are comfortable - with decent shower and toiletries. A very pleasant place for a very pleasant stay. Handy for all the attractions in the Mellah area, including Palace El Badi which is literally over the back wall!

Lovely Riad within walking distance of the markets

This Riad was a perfect choice for a short stay in Marrakech. I was travelling with my teenage daughters, and I wanted somewhere close to the centre of town. It is within walking distance of the Souks and places of interest. The owner of the Riad made us feel very welcome and was extremely helpful. He booked Restaurants and taxis for us every night. The Riad is clean and comfortable. The rooms are air conditioned. We had a triple room on the top floor of the Riad. I would definetly recommend it for a short break to Marrakech.

We had a wonderful stay at this Riad. The location is excellent, very close to lots of shopping, but very quiet inside. It had a total rebuild 8 years ago and has been maintained in this new condition by staff since. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They wanted to do our washing (one weeks worth) for nothing, but we insisted on paying. We ate in one night and the meal was delicious. They had good wine (most important).. I arrived in Marrakech unwell, and the manager organised an excellent clinic to go to, that got me back on my feet within 4 hours.
We look forward to staying there again when in Marrekech.
Walking tours of the local area & souks are available please be aware these people can & do liaise with others to sell to tourists bargaining is expected but don't hesitate to walk away, one trader was quite nasty when we decided not to buy & next stop we got a much better deal.

Good location, nice oasis tucked away.

To look at from the outside, it is not much, but step through the door and that all changes. Lovely little Riad, in good location and really nice friendly staff. George speaks a reasonable amount of English, but if you have some French, that would be better. You wont find it easily. So I emailed ahead and asked them to arrange a taxi to collect me from the airport and deliver me to the door, which at 22:30 was a good idea, because I wouldn't have found it. Only charged me 15 Euro on the bill for that. Overall a nice relaxing stay. Don't be afraid to venture out, 30 seconds round the corner and you are at a main route through the south of the Medina to the central square (Jamaa El Fina), or take the other fork to the left at that junction to get to La Koutoubia. Oh, 20 mins from Airport, traffic depending.

An oasis amid the chaos

As you approach the Bab Mullah roundabout you will wonder where on earth you've come however as the door to the Riad opens you step into a little piece of heaven . More than accommodating staff are keen to see to your every need . There was a slight language barrier but if you can remember a few key words in French you're fine . The staff gave us some suggestions on where to visit and also were happy to recommend places to eat although you can enjoy dinner in the Riad . The whole place is spotlessly clean and I'd happily return again.

Wonderful hotel in a busy city

Just returned from Marrakech after a 3 day stay with my wife and daughter. The Riad would be a little difficult to find on your own so contact the owner who will arrange transfers. This approach is also the moist cost effective as you will not be overcharged. We had a suite which was extremely spacious and very comfortable. The beds were a little hard for our liking but that is purely a personal issue. Breakfast wad served each morning to our convenience and whilst it was the same each morning, it was well prepared and very plentiful. The location is excellent within 10 minutes walk of the mnain square and close to some very good restaurants.

Loved it!

What a hidden little Gem! We absolutely loved it. Georges, Sofjan, and the rest of the team are so welcoming and helpful, it makes you feel like home. The riad is gorgeous and so was our room.
Granted, it takes a bit to get used to the open bathroom :D
And if you are a light sleeper you may hear other guests in the riad coming in or going out. But we had no problem with that. We really enjoyed it and were sad to leave.
For consideration: 10 min to Jemaa al Fna, 5 min to Bahia Palace.
They will organize a tour for you, or book you a guide. The price and tours are great - worth it!

Outstandng Boutique Hotel Oasis in the Medina

I give this hotel top ratings across the board. It is a really great 6-room boutique hotel on a quiet alleyway in the medina a short walk from the main square and bazaar. George and his staff are OUTSTANDING. They are so friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is also so nice. We had an early morning hot air balloon ride scheduled and George surprised us with having breakfast ready at 5:30 am - we assumed we wouldn't get breakfast given the hour. While the other reviews are correct and the staff speaks limited English, do not let this stop you from staying there. The service and friendliness and hotel atmosphere more than make up for having to spend another minute or two on communications. The staff very willingly made us dinner, spa, activity and taxi reservations based on our requests. All were perfect. The hotel is VERY clean and decorated in beautiful Moroccan style. Hot tub and rooftop terrace and breakfast every morning complete the picture. Definitely recommend.

Beautiful, tranquil riad.

We stayed at the Riad Turquoise for four nights in early February 2015.
A beautiful calm place to escape to after a busy day checking out the sights or browsing in the souks.
I can compare the doorway into the Riad to the magic door that leads to Narnia in the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe.
It really does lead from one world to another.
