Riad Antara

There’s nothing I can say to properly express how amazing this place is! The interior is breath taking! It’s beautiful, elegant, and sophisticated. Attention was put into every single detail. We loved everything about the property. Now onto the part of our stay that touched our hearts and changed our trip around.. we initially booked a different riad which turned out to be far less than our expectations. We booked our stay at riad Antara last minute when we decided to abandon our initial accommodation. Anne and Abdul met us down the street from Riad Antara and helped us carry our luggage. They even saved us from a man actively trying to swindle us for money. We were greeted with a pastry spread and Moroccan tea. Laurent owns this Riad with Anne and they made sure to treat us like family. Our last morning in Marrakech came super early.. before the sun came up. Laurent and another employee met us at the room to take our luggage down. They packed us a two person lunch to take with us on our journey to the Sahara. It was heart touching. Then, Laurent and staff carried our luggage all the way to the pick up spot we needed to be at by 6:30am - understand that the streets in Marrakech are cobble stone so dragging a heavy suitcase is no easy task. I received a text from Laurent the following day saying that we had left a very large, expensive painting behind at the Riad. Laurent went to the trouble of finding a way to package it and mail it back to us in the states. There’s not a single bad thing to say about this place. It was truly magical. Everything was taken care of for us despite booking it the day of. We love Laurent, Anne, and Abdul! We’re forever grateful. They turned our trip around for sure.

Marrakesh is a "must experience" city, no? The spirit of it is a riad (boutique hotel = oasis of calm) . Antara is a truly an impressive riad. Classy, impressive architecture. Also very tastefully appointed. Committed & attentive service team. Laurent & Anna from France, the owners, are heartfelt hosts. I'm 73, have been around, and I'd say this is one of the best places I've ever stayed at. Highly recommended......

This is an excellent hotel. The location is great and the service the best I have seen. Laurent, Anne and Amin and their whole team do everything possible to keep your stay most comfortable. The approach road to the hotel is a bit narrow, but it is less than5 minutes walk (Hotel staff makes sure that you do not have to carry your own luggage) to the main entrance of the hotel, and once you enter the gates, you are just vowed by the fragrance and beauty of the place.
