The stay at this Riad was an overwhelming experience. Everything was close to perfection from the first day until the day we left. The warm welcome where a carrier took our luggage and where Jacqueline - the owner - welcomed us with tea and Moroccan cookies, the great decoration and enormous bedroom with lovely bathroom. Every morning a fantastic fresh breakfast with small pancakes, croissants and baguettes. Jacqueline provided us with all kind of suggestions for restaurants, trips and must sees. The location of the Riad is excellent near to the King's palace. I would really recommend this place if you intend to visit Marrakech!

A Hidden Gem in Marrakech – A Royal Experience Awaits Discovering this riad was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of elegance and tranquility. The property is a masterpiece, with every corner adorned in sumptuous Moroccan décor—rich textiles, intricate tilework, and soft lighting that transports you to a romantic Arabian Nights fantasy.​ Jaqueline, our host, was the epitome of graciousness. Her warm hospitality made us feel like Moroccan royalty, ensuring our every need was met with a smile.​ Situated near the King's palace, the riad offers a serene escape from the bustling medina. While it feels like a secluded oasis, it's just a short walk to vibrant markets, charming shops, and a plethora of exquisite restaurants.​ I can't recommend this place enough. If you're seeking an unforgettable Moroccan experience, look no further. We eagerly anticipate our next stay and will advise all our friends to book here for a truly magical getaway.​

Everything was wonderful!

We had the most amazing stay at Riad Jnane d’O. Jacqueline was the most kind, welcoming, and incredible hosts we have met in our travels. She greeted us at our taxi and walked us to her Riad - it was so lovely to be so welcomed. Her Riad is a sanctuary and no detail has been spared. It was so beautiful and peaceful. Our room was spotless and the staff kept the entire Riad perfectly clean every day. The Riad was in the perfect location - we could easily walk to the markets or to taxi stand for our excursions. We highly recommend Riad Jnane d’O and hope to return some day.

We loved the amazing morning breakfasts to start the day! Fresh, fresh, fresh-fruit, bread, coffee, and eggs! Really great coffee and the company at the table each morning was spent with the brilliant and thoughtful owner (and now my friend). This incredibly talented and thoughtful lady who is the creator and visionary of this special place called Riad Jnae D'O is Ms. Jacqueline herself. What she has designed, created, imagined within the walls of her Riad is a place where travel starts and ends each day in a way that makes you want to stay forever. We couldn't wait to wake up and have breakfast and sit in the garden. It brought us a sense of peace and relaxation each morning just to start the day. I have never been, and probably never will be, to a place so warm, and where all things needed have been considered. This is not simply a place to stay, it is an experience, and clearly a work of passion and love that she shares with others. I give it 5 stars + the moon and the sun!

From the minute we walked in the front door and into a beautiful courtyard , we knew we'd love it there. Jacqueline, the owner was so welcoming and could not have done more for us. She recommended restaurants and even phoned to book them for us. The rooms were lovely and kept tidy and clean every day. We really enjoyed the fresh fruit salad at breakfast as well as the yoghurts, fresh rolls, croissants and home made sweet treats. The staff were all polite and courteous. There is a gorgeous roof top terrace where we enjoyed sitting after a busy day. The location was perfect and we could walk to all the places we wanted to visit in the heart of the city. We would highly recommend staying here.

Loved it all!

Our host Jacqueline was absolutely brilliant. We couldn't have wished for a better Rhiad or location. Nothing was too much trouble. Our luggage was taken to the Rhiad when we arrived and when we departed, again our luggage was taken for us to our awaiting taxi. Jacqueline came with us to make sure our driver was there, so much care was taken by her to ensure everything was right. We had better treatment with Jacqueline than a 5* hotel. Wonderful breakfast every morning, and always something different for us to try. To sum up Jacqueline was exceptional and we would highly recommend her to any traveller thinking of visiting Marrakech. Thank you for your kindness Jacqueline.

There was nothing we didn't like. All wonderful.

A gem of a Riad! This riad is truly a garden of Eden, providing respite from the hustle and bustle of the medina. Visiting Marrakesh for the first time, we spent 3 nights with Jacqueline our French host who was so welcoming and friendly and a great source of information, especially for restaurant recommendations. The Riad is a harmonious and beautiful combination of Moroccan tradition and French flair, its decor is gorgeous and has a divine central courtyard full of fruit trees, bougainvillea and the gentle sound of bird song. Like the Riad our room was spacious, beautiful and unique and was cleaned daily. The roof terrace was lovely and sunny with pretty bougainvillea of all colours spilling from large terracotta pots. The perfect place to relax and enjoy a glass of wine while the sun sets. The generous breakfasts were an absolute joy with different combinations of sweet and savoury Moroccan pastries each day and seasonal fruits. This Riad is in a really good location and it was easy to walk to the different tourist sites and there were plenty of places to eat & drink nearby, again within walking distance. If you are looking for a unique experience in a beautiful property run by a very lovely host then I would recommend Riad Jnane d’Or.

Jacqueline was an excellent hostess, looking after us extremely well, especially when organising taxis and transport. The location was super for moving around the city both by car and on foot. Beautiful rooftop terrace overlooking the roofs of Marrakech with the Atlas mountains in the background.

Unfortunately the mattresses were very hard, but the bedding was otherwise good. It would have been nice to have breakfast on the terrace.

The owner/operator of the Riad, Jacqueline, was absolutely amazing. Her and her staff went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible stay during our first visit in Marrakesh. She organized a driver to pick us up at the airport, someone to carry our bags from the dropoff to the Riad, and was at the entrance to welcome us and get us acclimated. She mapped out all of the landmarks/areas for us and even called to arrange our first dinner, which was incredible! Jacqueline and her staff welcomed us every morning with an amazing breakfast, she offered to coordinate directly with our driver for our departure, and she even walked with us to meet our driver early Sunday morning. And I haven't even gotten to how incredible our room was! The room was beautifully decorated, clean and well stocked with anything you could need. We have never had such an amazing experience staying at a hotel before and while Marrakesh was incredible and worth visiting again, I would come back just to stay at this Riad again!

Having to leave!

We loved staying at Riad Jnane d'O. It's a beautiful place and Jacqueline is a fantastic host who made us feel very welcome. There are lot's of good to things to say about it but perhaps the main one is the location. It's in the Medina but just the right distance from the central square in that you can walk down there easily (10-15 minute walk) but you are far enough away from it to keep the extreme touristy stuff at arm's length too as well. It's got a very neighbourly feel - people will say hello and stop to chat as well. It's also very safe and there is a security guard on duty for the little warren of laneways where the Riad is situated. There are some very nice restaurants nearby that Jacqueline will happily book for you but also some cheap and cheerful eating places that are also excellent - we particularly recommend Restaurant Regue Jamaa which is just around the corner and has great food and a super-friendly owner. There is also a place to get taxis (if you need to travel outside the Medina) about two minutes walk away. Airport shuttle service was brilliant and brought us right to the door of the Riad. I really don't think there is a better neighbourhood to stay in when visiting Marrakech.

Not much to be honest. You might find a cheaper place to stay in Marrakech but I doubt you'll find a better one.
