Lovely stay, very welcoming team.

We had an amazing hospitality, the team receiving us was always welcoming, smiling, and always attentive, they took the time to answer all our questions, and share local interest and habits. One of the team members, Jamal, was exceptionally welcoming! we highly recomend this Riad for your next trip to Marrakech

Very close to Jemaa el-Fna, but tucked away enough that it is quiet. Accommodations are simple but enough for a comfortable stay. There is a mosque next door but we were never awakened by the call to prayer. In fact, it was wonderful to have breakfast or a cup of tea in the evening while watching the sun's rays on the minaret. Area feels completely safe. Lots of food and shopping options around and in any case, Jemaa el-Fna is a two minute walk away. The family arranged transportation from and to the airport and though we had organized our side trips ahead of time, they are happy to organize those as well. We had them drive us to the Yves St. Laurent gardens and back. Cannot overstate the hospitality we were shown by the family that runs the riad. Abdul was a wonderful host and went out of his way to be helpful, even walking us to a pharmacy when we needed some medicine, offering to set up an appointment with a doctor (which we did not need in the end), and checking in regularly. We spent a few hours each evening on the lovely terrace, always with a cup of fresh mint tea, and learnt a lot about Morocco from our conversations with Abdul during those hours. You can order dinner, but breakfast is included - orange juice, tea/coffee, a thin crepe and a lovely local bread with some combination of jam/honey/cheese, a fruit and a pastry. Abdul's older brother Fouad lives close by. Both were extremely helpful and warm. HIghly recommend Azalia.

It was the perfect place for my taste. Close to everything and yet so quiet. The terrace incredible. Will go back.

Riad Azalia - great people

Had a great stay. It's really close to Jemaa but a haven of peace amidst busy streets. Lovely staff, very helpful and made us feel really welcome. This is not a slick hotel or a "boutique" riad, it's a comfortable, welcoming riad with real character run by good people.

Perfect location, quiet and easy

This is located in a quiet alley—about 1 minute from Marrakesh’s famous Jmaa al Fmaa but away from the noise and chaos. Like most riads, the rooms need updating. But the bed was great and the super hot shower was a nice surprise. Quiet and considerate staff. Habeb was wonderful. He gave helpful tips and offered to walk my mother and I to the Bahia Palace. Thank you!

Unprofessional

We booked this place because its location. When we arrived we were told that they had our booking but they were fully booked and they didn't have a room for us. We could book it because their internet was down and their system didn't update. We were not told of this till we reached the reception of the hotel. As a solution, they put us in another hotel which was 15 minutes walk from that one in a not that good location. The second hotel were we were moved to was not even fully built and overall its quality was much lower than the hotel we have firstly booked.

Awesome Experience

As long as you go into it with the right expectations this is the best place to stay to experience Marrakech. If you want to really experience the old medina then stay in a riad like this. As long as you aren't expecting it to be like a ritzy 5 star resort than it won't let you down. The room and bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning was a life saver. We had a short walk from the open courtyard Jemaa el-Fna (where there is marketplace that is bustling with activity every evening) to the Riad. The atmosphere is awesome. You will get woken up by the call to prayer each morning since there is a tower with speakers just across the street, but for me that was part of the joy of the experience. They provided a great breakfast. The berber bread was my favorite. I will stay there again if I make it back to Marrakech.

Beautiful riad in the old medina

Our time here was amazing! Beautiful location, quiet and a little haven away from the busyness of the city. Mohammed and everybody at the riad were very attentive and helpful, which was just want was needed to navigate around the confusing little lanes of Marrakech. Breakfast is traditional, and we are missing it already. Highly recommended.

Close to Djem al Fnaa

Stayed here in early May. Had a lovely experience. Courteous staff Nice rooms Great location Tip: Not easy to find if it's your first time to Marracech, call ahead and I am sure they will happily arrange for someone to meet you in the square.

You get what you paid for.

You get what you pay for and this Riad was an experience. There was no in room fridge or TV, the wifi internet was very good as well as the air conditioning. In our bathroom the toilet seat was cracked and the toilet was kind of broken. That soap and shampoo in the bathroom was very nice as was very Moroccan. The drain in the shower smelt of sewage as it was quite shallow and made the room smell funny. The entire room was a bit dark as there was only 1 functional light fixture. The staff was very kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable during our stay and help us immensely. Breakfast each morning was very good as it had great variety. Overall our stay was memorable and was a real Riad experience.

Traditional riad in the hart of Medina

The riad is located right in Medina near the busy Jamma el Fnaa. It is a small riad therefore you will get personal attention and help to organise any trips should you wish to do them. In the mornings they serve excellent breakfast - hose pancakes were amazing! You can have breakfast in the terrace but you expect company of wasps. You can also have breakfast inside. Rooms are comfortable and beautiful. The area is safe. Thank you to everyone in riad who took care of us.

Haven in the hustle and bustle

The manager was charming and excellent. Our room was large and comfortable. We loved this place. Beer expensive!

Close to the Main Square

The staff at the Riad Azalia are polite, friendly and helpful. The proximity to the the main tourist areas is good.

The Riad is located just a short walk from Jemaa el-fna square. In close proximity you have shops, cafes and food outlets. The room itself was enough to be comfortable but wasn't luxurious, however for the price paid it offered reasonable value. Mohammed the hotel manager was helpful in providing information about things we should see and do and tours could be arranged at additional cost. The wifi in the hotel was adequate.

Cant be beaten on location. Lovely hosts

We loved our stay at Riad Azalia. Firstly it is a couple of minutes walk from Jemma el Fna square and is very easy to find. I liked that the rooms had safes and you can lock your door (not always the case in some riads). Mohammed and the staff were lovely, friendly and and helpful. Breakfasts were typical morrocan but good and plentiful. The riad is very clean and our room was cleaned every day. The roof terrace is good for relaxing and the riad also serves drinks and food. The riad is next to a mosque so we were woken about 5.30 am every morning with the call to prayer but we felt this added to the charm of Marrakech. We were only in Marrakech forca 3 night break but we have travelled to other parts of Morocco. Mohammed advised us about the trips he could arrange and while we didn't go on any trips this time they were amazing value. We will be stating at Riad Azalia again when we return to Morroco.

Great location

I have been to Marrakech many times & this is the 5th Riad I've stayed in. It was advertised as half price, which was a fair amount for this Riad, I would not want to pay any more. I booked a room with two large beds which I didn't get, we were first offered a double, which was immediately changed to triple room with one large double and a single. We were moved into the quadruple room the next day, but still this was a large double & bunks so not what I had booked & paid for... whilst this wasn't necessarily an issue it was still frustrating not to get what I was expecting. Breakfast was very basic, just bread & pancakes, no eggs offered. Nice enough riad but needs a bit of tlc.

Definitely recommendable

I will come back to Marrakech and stay again at this place. The riad is cute and very well located, very close to main square. Maybe a bit difficult to find for the first time when you do no know the Medina. The staff is really nice and helpful.

Enjoyed this riad because of its size. I was happy not to have to go 5 flights of stairs with suitcases. Very friendly staff. Good location: although in the medina, easy and quick access to taxis.

i wouldn't go back again,because you pay price online and when you go to the hotel they give you different prices if you what room with air condition or without!it was so confusion plus the room had cockroach

BREATH TAKING, This was AMAZING

We basically forgot that we were stayng in Riad. The staff were super hospitable, they arranged private tours, ensured we had breakfast at whatever time, and helped us with any other needs. The Riad architecture was surprisingly fabulous, very convenient to the local square (less than 3min walk) and it was tucked away to not experience the noise of the market. The breakfast each morning was so delicious and the dinner we had there was superbly set. I would definitely stay again.

Hotels.com should remove this Riad from their list

I would not recommend this hotel. At the end of my six day stay, I was told their credit card reader was broken and asked to pay cash. I paid cash. The hotel told hotels.com that I "had made other arrangements." I still am disputing my six night stay to receive my points.

Cheap but excellent

It was very good. The staff took care of us. The price was cheap but the service was excellent. They treated us like their guests in their own home. They can all speak and understand English. They change the towels everyday and they maintain the place well. Plus the location is near to every place you have to see in Marrakech. Its just a 3minute walk to Jamaa el fna square. Its safe and quite so you can have a good sleep.

Nice hotel close to the market and food places .

The stuff they were so nice and respectful And the hotel was nice n quite I would definitely recommend to everyone plus is cheap.

Estuvo correcto, el desayuno muy bien, escesivo ruido de motos por la calle

Muy bien situado y con muy buenas comodidades. Riad céntrico con desayuno estupendo y el personal muy agradable

朝食と屋上テラスが素晴らしい。

メディナ散策にオススメ

大きな広場からすぐ。 小道を入るので私だけだったらたどり着けなかったかもしれませんが、主人は問題なく周辺の地理を把握していました。 部屋は私たちが泊まったところはダブルベッドと二段ベッドがあり、二段ベッドの方は荷物置きとして最適でした。 朝食は屋上テラスで。 気持ちよく頂けました。 写真がテラスです。 スタッフの方がとても親切で、周辺の情報を丁寧に教えてくれました！

Le Riad est super bien placé , à quelques minutes de la place jeema el fna.. très calme malgré la proximité des souks , les petits déjeuners sont délicieux .. un endroit ou l'on aime se ressourcer .. Merci à toute l'équipe pour leur gentillesse . Nadine

jugement mitigé

Riad mignon mais modeste aux prestations simples/ acceuil mitigé dans la mesure ou le personnel présent ne parlait pas le Français / proximité d'une mosquée aux portes de l'hôtel qui génère du bruit lors des appels à la prière le seul atout véritable de ce riad c'est sa situation géographique toute proche de la place jamaa el fna et des autres attractivités de la ville ( palais badi etc...) et le prix de la chambre accessible pour la période de Noel

Nettes Riad, sehr zentral gelegen, sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal/Besitzer. Man kann auch sehr gut essen dort. Gerne wieder.

eenvoudig maar redelijk goede riad

Dit eenvoudige doch redelijk goede riad ligt op loop afstand het grote El Fna plein en de souks.

Hôtel très bien situé

Situé à 3 mn de la place principale. Tout est accessible à pied. Hôtel très mignon, super propre, le personnel accueillant, gentil et à votre service.

Nice and quite Riad

The riad is in the heart of the old Médina and the city of marrakech, only for people who are looking for quite place. It’s not luxurious, not perfect but enough to pass a good night, defenetily not expensive. We did meet very nice people who served us. Definitely good for people that don’t exaggerate with their expectations.

Cerca,,del centro histórico

Muy amables,,todos,,habitación limpia,,con aire,,silencioso

Quiet riad in the heart of the Medina

Cozy riad, friendly staff and welcome. We couldn't try the breakfast because we left very early but we tried the terrace and the owner invited us to use the pool of their parent riad. The location is in the heart of the Medina but in a very tranquil corner.

Muy recomendable

Pasamos 3 noches en el riad en una habitación privada con baño propio. Teníamos el espacio suficiente y eso que no nos quitaron la cama supletoria de la habitación. Nos encontramos unas cuantas cucarachas pero por lo visto es lo normal por Marrakech. El desayuno muy bueno y con un servicio excelente. El personal nos recibió muy bien desde el principio y nos dieron buenas explicaciones turísticas de la ciudad. La localización es excelente ya que siempre hay gente en las tiendas cercanas lo que lo hace una zona segura por las noches. Fácil de encontrar y junto a la plaza Jemma el-fna. Totalmente recomendable para todo tipo de viajeros.

Charmerende Riad i centrum.

Lille charmerende og smuk Riad, kun 5 minutters gang fra Jemaa El-Fnaa pladsen. Venligt og serviceminded personale. Fin morgenmad.

God beliggenhet, vennlig personale, fantastisk service

hotel "mi casa"

Esperienza positiva personale disponibile

中心地からすぐ

中心地からすぐのことろに位置するリヤド。この値段で、この快適さとスタッフの優しさはとても評価できます！

Buena Ubicación, excelente desayuno y personal

Se trata de un Riad muy bien situado en la Medina.El personal es muy atento y servicial y el desayuno muy bueno.

Leuk verblijf vlakbij het centrum

Goede ligging, vriendelijk personeel, eenvoudige kamers, eenvoudig maar ruim ontbijt

Excelente localização

O Riad é razoável , tem ar condicionado, pessoas simpáticas e hospitaleiras, excelente localização . Tem wi-fi , tem terraço . Limpo e com toalhas e shampos. Tem tv.

Enttäuscht

Leider wurde ich ungefragt nicht in das Riad einquartiert, welches ich gebucht und gezahlt habe, sondern in das Riad Shezarade nebenan. Die Sauberkeit von dem Zimmer Nr. 7 war unter ferner liefen. Schade aber auch, dass meine Auffassungsgabe von Mohammed angezweifelt worden ist. Azalia wäre schlechter wie das Shezarade. Allerdings merkt man den Unterschied schon beim betreten der beiden Einrichtungen. Schade

comfortable riad with great location

great location, few minutes from main square. pick up service well organise, nice breakfast, personel kind and helpfull

Nettes Riad im Zentrum

Sehr nette Unterkunft mit Innenhof und Dachterrasse. Familiär gehalten mit nur ca. 5 Zimmern - wie eine Art Pension.

Attention aux frais cachés (surprise)

Le préposé au service voulait me charger les frais de climatisation (malgré que c'était compris dans l'offre initiale). son gérant l'a ramené à l'ordre fort heureusement. Même chose pour les frais de ménage. Depuis quand un hotel charge ces frais aux clients? Pourtant, j'ai demandé de ne pas faire le ménage de ma chambre lors de mon séjour. malgré tous cela, le préposé voulait me charger une fois les frais de ménage (ceux de fin de séjour pour remettre la chambre en état). je trouve ça aberrant de devoir débattre pour des niaiseries du genre. aussi, quant des frais du genre sont prévues à la facturation, pourquoi ils ne sont pas affichés dés le depart pour éclairer les clients pour faire un choix et non les piéger? malgré tout j'ai payé quant même un surplus associé aux taxes: une taxe de la promotion touristique et une taxe de séjour. ces taxes s'appliquent bizarrement au nombre de personnes ayant séjourné et non à la chambre louée. Exemple: 4 personne et 3 nuits correspondent à des taxes multipliées par 12 (4*3) et non 3 (nuits = le service). en bon français on taxe les personnes et non le service.??????

Ils rajoutent des frais en plus pour la clim et d'autre frais en plus du prix de la chambre

３泊しました。マラケシュのリアドには部屋用の内鍵と外扉の外鍵があり、リアドによって内鍵と外鍵両方を渡してくれるところと内鍵のみのところがありますが、こちらのリアドは内鍵のみ渡されます。帰った際は呼び鈴にてスタッフに中から開けてもらわないと入れません。外扉にはカメラが設置されています。 スタッフが常駐しており、待たされることはありません。警備がしっかりしたリアドです。
