Riad Zayane

Great Riad in a fantastic location! The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room was beautifully decorated and comfortable and the food was very good. We only stayed for 2 nights, but had a wonderful experience. We arranged a full day walking tour through the Riad at a great price (800 dirhams for 2 people). The guide was amazing. He took us everywhere we wanted to go (Saadian Tombs, Palaces, Mosques, University and town square, where we stopped for lunch in a rooftop restaurant). He was very knowledgeable, courteous, very friendly and had a great sense of humour! He really made the whole experience fun. There was no hard sell and was the highlight of our short stay. I cannot reccomend both the Riad and the guide more highly.

We walked through the bustling market and turned into a quiet road where Riad Zayane is situated. Step inside, shut the door and the silence is deafening. A lovely Riad.staff friendly and helpful.we chose to eat at the Riad in the evening and we were not disappointed. Breakfast was very good with excellent coffee. The roof terrace is fine and perfect for a beer and chill after the souks. All in all very good

From start to end, it was an amazing stay! The host (jaouad) welcomed us and provided us with very detailed advice on the city, things to do, things to look out for and simple Arabic to negotiate cheaper prices in the souks. He was incredibly helpful and so kind. During our stay the girls (Samira, Maliki and Ikram) ensured we always had a lovely breakfast, felt taken care of and overall incredibly sweet and warming. Both Toby and I cannot thank you four enough for sharing your country, traditions and values with us. We had an incredible experience and a wonderful birthday trip in Marrakesh because of you four and we look to be back later this year. The room itself was always clean, spacious and filled with culture. The riad itself was clean, quiet and in a perfect location. It was super easy to walk to the main square, the souk and also the new town. Taxis stop right outside the main road and it felt like you were always emerged in with the locals. It felt lovely to see all the boys playing football when we wondered back at night. Also yummy fresh breakfast every morning! The aircon was a lifesaver after the warm day, the bathroom was always clean and the Riad had such a tranquil feel. You forget that you’re in the chaotic hustle and bustle of Marrakesh once you step foot inside. If you don’t see us first, you will definitely see our family as we have not stopped singing your praises for them to visit you. Shukram Jaouad, Samira, Maliki and Ikram. Inshallah to you all.

Another 5 star review for Riad Zayane. The interior is beautiful and tranquil, and the staff are warm and welcoming and always ready to help. We had a stunning looking room with a bay window seat looking into the courtyard. Breakfasts were varied and tasty. After a long day of hiking in the Atlas Mountains we opted to eat in. The meal consisted of a selection of colourful salads to start with followed by a fish terrine with fruit for dessert, and was excellent. The Moroccan wine was good and the prices very reasonable. The roof terrace is ideal for some late afternoon sun with a Casablanca beer. The Zayane is a real oasis of peace and calm in contrast to the streets surrounding it, a really great place to stay

Beautiful Riad. Lovely attentive staff good location for all the attractions. Highly recommend this place to stay. WiFi is good. Rooftop is lovely in the evening to relax. Central Court is lovely any time of the day. So peaceful from the hustle and bustle just outside. Samira, Malika and Icram really looked after us on our stay.

Whilst Marrakech is a wonder of sights and experiences, Riad Zayane made the holiday, the building is lovely, calm and relaxing and ideally located but like many venues it is the staff that make it and Riad Zayane has by far the nicest you could wish to encounter, nothing to much trouble, always a genuine smile and eager to please, booking trips, offering advise and organising things. If we were to go back to Marrakech, even though the city has so much going on, we would not look for a different place to stay - they were that good!
