My daughter and I wanted to experience the authentic side of Marrakech, so we chose to spend a few days in a riad. Riad Djebel truly felt like home for us. It is quiet, clean, atmospheric, and very welcoming. The riad is owned by a French lady and run by a dedicated team who make sure you have everything you need. Every morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast, served on the beautiful rooftop terrace. On our first evening, we also had dinner in the riad. The table was set with care, and the dishes were wonderful. We especially loved the chicken tajine. Our room had everything we needed, with comfortable beds and air conditioning. The manager arranged taxis whenever we needed them, and someone always walked with us to meet the driver, as the narrow alleyway doesn’t allow cars to come right to the riad. We recommend staying at this riad for several days. It gives you time to get used to the sometimes hectic atmosphere of Marrakech while enjoying the peace of this riad. You also get to know the staff better, which makes it feel even more like a true home away from home 💕

When we arrived at the riad, we couldn’t believe how beautiful it was, a true hidden gem . We were warmly welcomed with Moroccan tea and delicious homemade biscuits, while the staff kindly explained the area to us Our bedroom in the riad was absolutely beautiful, full of Moroccan charm with stunning doors and a lovely bathroom – it felt so authentic and special Our room had a lovely view looking over the riad’s courtyard pool We had the most peaceful stay, waking up to the sound of birds singing. Each morning we enjoyed an amazing Moroccan breakfast, lovingly prepared by the friendly ladies – a perfect start to the day Thankyou to all the staff Especially Walid & Mustapha Take care all

All the people working at the Riad have been extremely kind and helpful (Delphine, Mustafa and Suleiman). Mustafa, the manager gave us a map of the Medina and marked also the best places while he walked us through them. First time he also came with us to the main square as streets in the medina can be hard to follow. They even knew our whereabout, whether we had an excursion and even prepared breakfast to go when we left early in the morning. The riad itself is very charming and despite being in the heart of the medina, it’s really quiet. Pictures are also realistic. I really recommend this accomodation.

We loved our stay at Riad Djebel. I would recommend organising a taxi through the Riad as we had a bit of a nightmare finding it due to the airport taxi not being able to get close and couldn't speak English so he dropped us off around a 10 minute walk away so definitely organise your taxi beforehand so there's no stress. It's also cheaper through the Riad which I didn't think it would be. The owners were incredible friendly and helpful giving us a map with all the key locations and even made us dinner when we arrived late. The chicken tagine dinner was well worth the money it was absolutely delicious. The room was incredibly clean, spacious and comfy and the rhiad itself is a calming oasis.

Nothing.

The host Moustafa was amazing, so knowledgeable and helpful. He was really friendly and gave us lots of hints and tips for navigating the Medina. The hotel were very flexible and arranged a breakfast for us one morning before standard hours as we had a tour. They also organised a taxi for us to leave and Moustafa walked us to the meeting point with our case. The Riad was beautiful and very clean. Breakfast was great on a lovely roof terrace. Felt very secure with 24hr concierge.

The room was a little small, especially when arriving with a big suitcase as there was limited space to hang clothes/leave the suitcase. The room was on the ground floor and the doors opened out to the small pool which was beautiful, however the doors and windows meant that noise from the shared spaces was heard and did wake us up a few times. I would recommend bringing ear plugs!

Fantastic riad, but what really made it was the staff. Delphine was incredibly attentive and helpful in the lead up to the trip, helping to arrange transfers, meals and give advice on getting cash and sim cards. Mustapha (the manager) was amazing, coming in on his day off to greet us, even though our flight was delayed and showing us all the local sights. Soumia cooked incredible meals; the breakfast was 10/10 and definitely take advantage of her tagine if you can! Lastly, Wilad was so helpful in getting us settled in and couldn’t have been more helpful. Beautiful riad, very clean and with great staff - will definitely be returning!

We've been to many beautiful places and stayed in lovely accommodations – but Mustapha's hospitality topped them all. From the very first minute, we felt truly welcome and well taken care of. He was always available for any questions we had, and his tips were incredibly helpful. The interior is stunning, and everything is spotlessly clean. If we come back to Marrakech, it will definitely be here. The location is actually great, though it takes a bit of getting used to at first, as you have to walk through several small alleys. But that’s the case with almost every riad in the city. With Google Maps, it’s easy to find your way around. And on the first day, we were personally picked up on foot from the taxi stand, which was very helpful.

The only thing that could maybe be improved is adding a bit more variety to breakfast – perhaps something savory to balance out all the sweet options.

NYC-based architect and fashion executive: this was an exceptionally beautiful riad with an amazing courtyard, rooftop, and surprisingly bright rooms (most riads in Morocco have very dark bedrooms to keep them cool without A/C), and the woodwork is particularly notable. Mustapha and the rest of the 24/7 on-site staff are SO wonderful, every one of them in their own way. Whether serving you breakfast (included) or dinner (get the lemon chicken tajine and eat on the rooftop on your first and last night!), accommodating dietary restrictions, arranging excursions, or walking you through nearby souks to get to a cab, they will make you feel safe and at home in an otherwise very overwhelming city. Five stars to these great people and thank you. My only negative note has less to do with this riad specifically than Marrakech generally: when you leave the more touristed part of the Medina to head home at night, the streets are spooky: narrow and labyrinthian, no lighting, stray animals, and if a mosque lets out from prayer there will be 50+ men loitering in the dark side streets. This is frightening especially, obviously, for a woman; but something that is probably true everywhere in the city. Be aware and be smart. Would love to come back to this special place, thank you again.

The breakfast was amazing. So tasty and filling. Also the food available as snacks was probably the best food we tried in the trip. The highlight of the stay was Mustapha who was like a beacon of calm in such a busy city. He was excellent at providing guidance and direction but also great recommendations. Wish we knew many of the things before. It was also great to get a physical map of the city. He was very attentive and very service minded.

Forgot about the city tax so it was a bit surprising at the end so it would've been nice to be told again in the beginning. The doors were not really tight so privacy was a bit compromised and a few nights there were some really loud guests outside our door which was annoying but not too bad. It was a bit unclear if we could've used the pool but since no one said anything and no one used it we assumed it's not for use. Would've been nice.

We went there for our anniversary and it did not disappoint! Breakfast was amazing the food prepared by Soumia was top notch! the stuff made our stay exceptional. They were very welcoming, friendly, we felt so at ease! They explained evenrything to us about the city and kept checking if everything was up to our expectations. Cherry on top, we got a room upgrade in our last night and a box of morrocan sweets, and it was great! I cannot recommend this Riad enough! Definitely would come back if I go to Marrakech
