Ryad Explore This is a beautiful boutique hotel, recently renovated. The decoration reflects the culture of Morocco with very good taste. The personnel is super friendly and willing to help you always. The ryad is located in the Medina but it is easy to find following the map they provide except watch out as it still doesn’t have a sign with the name however, number 35 is on the door as shown in their address. The security is very good as they keep the door closed and monitored by CCTV. The rooms have brand new A/Cs and offer perks like a kleenex box, bath gel, shampoo and even a nice cotton robe in case you want to refresh in there little indoor swimming pool which more like a big jacuzzi. There is a good continental breakfast buffet included in the rate. The central square of Marrakech is three minutes away. I fully recommend this ryad.

They don’t have a sign outside with the name.

My friend and I spent 3 nights here at the end of April 2025. The Riad is in a fantastic location- 5 minutes walk from the taxi rank and five minutes walk into the Square. There are a couple of great restaurants and bars on the same road. Riad is small but very clean. Our room was located on the Terrace which we loved. There is also a roof terrace with two sun lounges where we spent a chilled hour or two every day. All the staff were lovely very helpful and couldn’t do enough for you. A special mention to the two ladies who worked in the kitchen and cleaned the rooms. And an extra special thank you to the two men - Auoub and Lahcen who worked on reception. They answered all our questions, of which we had many! They were very welcoming and Lahcen even walked us down to their sister hotel Riad Africa so that we did not get lost. They were brilliant.

The staff in the Riad were so friendly and lovely, they were happy to answer any questions and made us all feel really welcome. They provided an amazing surprise birthday cake for one of our teenage sons 16th birthday which was on the day that we arrived! Breakfast was great - lots of home made breads and yummy Moroccan eggs - and the famous Moroccan tea that we all looked forward to every morning! The location of the Riad could not have been better - right off one of the main streets and less than 10 minutes from the main square. It was so beautiful and quiet inside the Riad compared to the hustle and bustle outside - like a secret retreat, tastefully decorated in traditional Moroccan style. The shopkeepers in the surrounding area were also all so friendly, courteous and welcoming. We had an amazing time - thank you so much!! ❤️

The only thing that could have been improved was signage! There is no sign outside the Riad to show what it is called (you wouldn't even know that it was. Riad as there is just a number in the door!!!) and no signage or directions on the Main Street. So difficult to find initially - but easy once you know where it is!

Great location, very close to the Jemaa El Fnaa square, but still in a silent neighbourhood. Bahia palace is close-by too. Exceptional staff. Both Ayoub and Hamza go the extra mile. The breakfast options are limited but enough, I was satisfied.

The budget single room is absolutely tiny. The smallest I have ever been in. Also, at over 50 Euros per night, it is not exactly 'Budget'. If you are searching for Riads at the last minute and see this one available, there is a good reason why the early birds have not booked it. On the other hand, it is exactly as seen in the photos, so hidden malice there. Make an informed decision. Beware, the billing is in British Pounds. So consider any overhead your bank may charge for conversion if GBP is not your native currency.

It was exactly what we needed! Perfect location, safe, in amongst the hussle and bussle of the day, but quiet at night. We were only able to enjoy the delicious breakfast one of the 3 days because we were leaving for daytrips before they served breakfast, but it was delicious. Really nice staff, very helpful and we were able to leave our suitcases for the day after checking out ( we had a 6:40 pm flight). I would highly recommend!

Gorgeous riad in an excellent location. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Ayoub. I would definitely stay here again.

The location. The riad is also tastefully decorated, I love the African explorer theme.

It was clean, very friendly staff! But the location it was perfect, it was 5min walks from hotel to Jemaa El Fna square.

Great staff

The jacuzzi water could have been cleaner

Small traditional Riad, nice people

Need a sign outside to find this riad easier

Location is great, staff very friendly

Room could be bigger, but does the job
