Road Sasheema is a very beautiful Riad in centre of the Medina in old town Marrakech. Surrounded by culture. On initial approach from the outside, it's impossible to tell what the inside looks like. Every time we walked in the front door you're presented with the most amazing aroma. The Riad was clean, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the local areas. The gave some brilliant advice about how much to expect to pay for taxis to certain destinations. The breakfast which is included was delicious and consisted of pancakes, freshly baked Moroccan bread, cake, coffee, Moroccan tea which is amazing, honey, marmalade, Jam and yoghurt. The perfect size breakfast to start the day. The toiletries which were included had the most amazing smell and were obviously luxurious and also available to buy from reception if required. We only knew this because we asked by the way, there was certainly no sales pitch or pressure from the staff.

There was a small leak on the bathroom sink which meant the bathroom counter had a constant small puddle of water but it didn't effect our stay at all.

Sashema is an absolute gem. I was looking for a riad with charm, authenticity, and plenty of natural light—something that felt inviting rather than dark and heavy, as many others seemed in photos. From the moment I stepped in, I knew I had made the right choice. The decor is beautiful, the rooms are spacious, and the common areas are a delight to spend time in. The location is fantastic—within walking distance of many attractions, yet conveniently close to taxi pick-up points. The neighborhood itself is safe and pleasant, though, if it’s your first time in Marrakech, you might not feel that, at first. Breakfast was a highlight—beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The ladies in the kitchen even went out of their way to prepare omelets for us, despite them not being on the usual menu. But beyond the beauty of the place, what truly made our stay special were the people. The warmth and attentiveness of the staff were beyond expectations—Moroccan hospitality is truly a thing. A heartfelt thank you to Abdul for making our time here so memorable!

We would have liked some vegetables with our breakfast, but that might just be a matter of preference.

Great riad with amazing staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Marrakesh for three days. The riad is in a quiter area but still close enough to the madina. The highlights were the staff. Mohammad, AbdurRahman, and manager were all amazing. The airport was super busy and caused us to check in very late. Mohammad went out of his way to accommodate us. Very helpful. The other highlight of this riad was the food! Wow. The breakfast is great but we opted to order dinner our last night. Fatiha cooked us the best meal we had our entire stay. We tried a lot of different places including royal Mansour, La mamounia, local hole in the wall places, but the food cooked by Fatiha was amazing.

From the moment we arrived we felt so welcome in the beautiful riad. Even prior to arriving, Delphine, the owner was so helpful and had many good recommendations for our trip. The breakfast was amazing and everything was homemade by their chef - fresh yoghurt and fruit, with homemade breads and eggs, cakes made daily and fresh orange juice. We also opted to have dinner at the Riad one evening which was exceptional and I would definitely recommend! We actually had an entire rooftop to ourselves for this romantic dinner, by chance, and the food was honestly so special. The team here really do the most to make you feel comfortable and at home. From booking us airport pick ups, a visit to the best hammam to giving us tips on the area. I would recommend this for a chilled and calm break. It is small and has a homely feeling so if that’s what you like, it’s great. The location is also good as you are close to the centre but away from the direct hussle and bussle. Thank you all again and hope to visit in the future.

I don’t think there’s anything that I would change about the Riad. Anything you need, the team are very helpful.

It has been my third time repeating in this riad. I have always found it great but this last time I noticed that they have improved even more. Beautiful, clean, and great location. The all staff is the best ( I have stayed in many riads in Morocco ) , very attentive in every detail, the offer you tea, help you with your luggage and anything else. Mohamed is to be highlighted for his education, kindness, respect and sympathy. In addition he has perfect English, he is very resolving and knows perfectly how to detect the needs of the client. The breakfast was great and the terrace now that it was not so hot was great. We had 3 rooms and all of them were great.

We had the pleasure to stay at Riad Sashema in October 2024. The location was perfect, right around the corner from the royal palace. All the main tourist attractions are no more than a 10-20 minute walk away making it the perfect location. The rooms were clean and the breakfast selection was small, yet fresh and delicious. The staff were super friendly and were happy to help whenever we had any questions. We highly recommend this riad.

Amazing experience staying here. Room was beautiful. Service was excellent. I felt like Moshine was really looking out for me as a solo traveller - he even yelled at a taxi driver who tried to rip me off. Breakfast was excellent. I didn’t get a chance to enjoy the dinner service but I imagine it would also be excellent. Beautiful lounge and rooftop area if you need to get a bit of work done.

My room was on the main floor. If you like to sleep in perhaps bring ear plugs as you might hear a few people at breakfast.

It's located at the edge of the Medina. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and freshly prepared.

The bed was a bit too hard for our liking. There is no soundproofing, so you can hear people coming and going, and you can hear things being prepared for breakfast if you are on the ground floor.

Breakfast was amazing, however sweet. We had the room at the rooftop which opened up to the terrace. This made for a great stay, very calm. The staff was amazingly hospitable.

Keep in mind to open the bathroom window, this reduces moisture getting trapped.

We loved the location, the decor, the breakfast, the rooftop! The staff were super friendly. Ridwan in particular was fantastic. Peppermint tea upon our welcome. Comfortable rooms and lovely facilities.

The call to prayer did wake us every morning but what can you do!
