The location was absolutely spot on. We felt submerged in the Medina and had to waste no time travelling to and from. It was fantastic to have a calm place to nip back to throughout the day. We had a room at the top which came out onto the roof terrace. It felt like our own private space. We could wake up early and read a book in peace as the city around us woke up. The hosts couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly. They looked after us so well and were lovely to talk to. We had dinner on the terrace the first night which was delicious. The table was set with flowers and candles, such a treat!

There was nothing we didn’t like. It was wonderful.

Location, interior, breakfast was great! The host was very kind and interested to tell us everything we asked him. We really enyoued our stay here!

The first time without help it would be hard to find riad.

Location was very central and ideal to visit the old town and most of the attractions. Breakfast looked not enough but that wasn't the case! There were some different choices each day and all of them were very tasty, fresh and fulfilling. The staff (Oualid and Mohamed) were very friendly, helpful, happy and always there to advice and inform us!

Some evenings, for few hours, there was noise coming from outside the Riad. Also, the master bed (mattress) could have been more comfortable.

Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed with traditional Moroccan tea and biscuits, which set the tone for a truly pleasant stay. The room was spacious, well-appointed, and featured comfortable beds, along with a charming terrace that enhanced the experience. Breakfast was of high quality, and on the day of my excursion, the staff kindly prepared a takeaway breakfast for me. The entire team was exceptionally friendly and respectful, offering valuable tips on the best places to visit in the city. Housekeeping was also excellent, with the room cleaned and tidied daily. The location is ideal—just a 10-minute walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa Square.

Nothing

Very nice riad near the heart of the medina. We stayed in a couple of different riads in Marrakech so had a chance to compare a few in the same price range. For Riad O Ly, the staff were very helpful and welcoming. The Riad is beautiful, but probably not as renovated as some of the others we stayed in. It wasn't really an issue, just something we noticed. The location is really central. Breakfast on the terrace was among the better breakfasts we had. Rooms were a reasonable size but could be cramped if you are traveling with several suitcases. The riad arranged airport pick-up for us and I do recommend it. The riad is not easy to find and a taxi cannot get very close to it. The car dropped us at one of the medina gates where someone from the riad met us and walked us to the riad (about 7min walk).

There is a mosque nearby so you will be woken up by the call to prayer. Nothing you can do about it but good to be aware if you like to sleep in.

The place was very clean and comfortable. The staff was extremly helpful and welcoming. The breakfast was delicious.

It was quite noisy the second night - Not sure if it were the neighbors.

The warm and heartfelt welcome we received when arriving allowed us to very easily settle in in Marrakesh, and the location in the medina made exploring the souks very convenient. The breakfast was exceptional, being freshly and thoughtfully prepared every morning and featuring a changing variety eggs, jams, bread, and Moroccan specialties. It was a wonderful, quiet harbour and place for relaxation in the busy hubbub of Marrakesh.

Finding the property on the first day was quite difficult, there are no signs and Google Maps is only somewhat helpful. But the locals quickly helped us and showed us the way there. Our room had a window towards the medina and it was sometimes a bit noisy at night, but that greatly varied with each individual day.

We loved the friendly welcome, the every day chats and all the advice we received. Our room was cleaned every day nicely and the bed was very comfortable. We had a freshly cooked breakfast every day up in the terrace. The staff are the best asset of this Ryad. They all work very well together and to be honest, we felt sad to say good bye to them. The property is in the middle of the buzzing medina and it almost felt magic. A new traveller will certainly miss the entrance. We had read about that and it almost felt like a challenge to us…could we find it? We did, with help. Be prepared to give a tip to whoever helps you find it. Ah, we also loved the evening relaxing music at the Ryad.

We liked everything.

This is an excellent Riad, the staff, location could not be bettered. Mohammad along with all the other staff were so friendly, professional and helpful from our 1st step into the door of the Riad. They would assist with any queries, and one thing before we arrived we felt was important and was fulfilled was sending a message or query was answered with an hour or two at the most. Also they organised a taxi from the airport to the side of the Medina. On arrival a member of staff of the Riad O LY met us and assisted with our bags and showed us the way. It is only a short walk and the Riad is nice and quiet BUT very close (1 minute) from one of the main "streets" of the souk so everything is easy to get to. The rooms were cleaned everyday, and as mentioned above ALL the staff were so friendly with a lovely smile whenever they saw you. So bottom line is THANK YOU MOHAMMAD & YOUR STAFF FOR A MOST ENJOYABLE STAY.

Absolutely nothing.

Great location in the centre of the old city, close to everything we needed . Beautiful oasis of calm when you stepped inside . Everyone we met was so friendly and helpful from the moment we walked through the door to the moment we left . We had the triple room which was precisely as described and as the pictures. Breakfast on the rooftop was lovely

It wasn’t something I didn’t like really but People should be aware that you have to go down an alley way to get to the Riad . Although it was scruffy it never felt unsafe and was very well lit at night . The various people we came across were helpful.
