Very satisfying experience from start to finish. Hajar, the manager welcomes guests with a smile and traditional Moroccan tea, something that being regular visitors to Marrakech, we very much enjoyed. Room was very clean and quiet. Breakfast was excellent and staff in the breakfast room could not be nicer. Location is awesome, very near main square and other must visit places in the city. Very recommendable.

The bathroom, although beautiful, could do with a bit of TLC around the basin, the pipes could be less exposed around the toilet area and the bedlinen, though of great quality, was slightly worn out. However, none of these factors spoiled our experience.

The Staff were wonderful Miriam especially was brilliant in every way it was excellent value for money Thank you so much

Sadly, the water in the Shower in our bedroom ( which was excellent in every other way ) did not run away quickly thus leaving a smell The Staff put in these candle burners which covered up the smell In every other way we were delighted Thank you again

The staff were wonderful. Very helpful with recommendations and Mariam was so bubbly and friendly! The location was excellent, just a couple blocks from the main square, but down a quiet street. We were not in the room originally pictured in our reservation. The room was a decent size but had no outside window so was quite stuffy. The a/c + fan helped with that, though.

The team is extraordinary and the all them are very available and attentive. We had to leave later than the scheduled time for breakfast and, even so, they prepared something for us to eat. The food is fabulous, the space is clean and quite.

The riad is close to the square and other facilities for easy access. The staffs are so welcoming and friendly especially Abdul. Abdul made my stay very easy and relaxing, always ready to help.

The hotel has a nice ambience with red and wooden accents, and it's situated 5-10 mins walk from many main tourist sites like Jemaa el-Fna market, Bahia Palace, Secret Garden etc. Staff, especially Hajar, Mohamed and Oussama were always there to help, guide, book a tour, and always be polite and smiling. The chef was always making great breakfasts and lunches (prepare yourself to be well fed!) Overall, amazing experience, highly recommend!

The price was good and the breakfast was also well served. The employees were always laughing and very funny, I really had some laughs. Room was more than enough for 3 people and we left out luggage while we went on a 3 day tour to Saara desert

I don't have nothing to complain, the only part that wasn't good was to find the location on the first day was a bit hard. But people in the street helped us

Thank you to Mariam and Zouhair for their excellent welcome and help! Such a Lovely and warm people

Riad Balkisse is a hidden gem in the heart of Marrakech. From the moment you step inside, you are transported to a world of beauty, tranquility, and comfort. The Riad's traditional Moroccan architecture, with its ornate tilework, lush courtyard, and rooftop terrace, creates a serene atmosphere that makes it easy to forget you're in the middle of a bustling city. The rooms at Riad Balkisse are spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. The staff is friendly and helpful, always willing to go above and beyond to ensure that guests have a memorable experience. The breakfast served at the Riad is a highlight, with a delicious selection of Moroccan pastries, fresh fruits, and traditional mint tea. One of the best features of Riad Balkisse is its location. It's situated in the heart of the Medina, within walking distance of many of Marrakech's most famous landmarks, such as the Bahia Palace and the Koutoubia Mosque. Despite its central location, the Riad is tucked away on a quiet side street, offering a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. Overall, Riad Balkisse is a wonderful choice for anyone looking for a traditional Moroccan experience in the heart of Marrakech. The Riad's beauty, comfort, and excellent location make it the perfect base for exploring all that this vibrant city has to offer.

While Riad Balkisse offers a comfortable and enjoyable stay, there are a few areas where the Riad could improve. Firstly, the Wi-Fi connection can be unreliable and slow, which can be frustrating for guests who need to stay connected. Secondly, the Riad does not have a pool, which may be disappointing for travelers looking to cool off in the hot Moroccan sun. Additionally, some guests have noted that the Riad's breakfast options can be limited and repetitive for longer stays. Finally, the Riad's location, while central, can be a bit difficult to find for first-time visitors, so clearer directions or signage could be helpful.

The Riad Balkisse has been our home and our point of reference in our trip. We loved the kind ambient and the hospitality of Zouhair, Mariam, Mohamed, Najat and Ghizlan, they have been like our family in Marrakesh, they helped us with the tours that we needed, gave us really good tips and with my allergies they have been so considerated, they prepared special Marrocain sweets and foot for me. We highly recommend the Riad Balkisse, it's a really good place to discover Marrakesh and have a peaceful shelter to rest.
