It was a very beautiful riad! Breathtaking! The dinner was also very delicious.

10 out of 10!

The staff were really friendly and went out of their way to accommodate any needs. The beds were so comfy.

Lovely staff

We had a lovely stay at the Riad Yamina52. The staff were fantastic and very helpful throughout our stay. Getting to the Riad is a little challenging down the winding little streets (avoiding motorbikes and carts) but once inside it is lovely. The rooms are long and narrow as they overlook an internal courtyard. The roof area is welcome respite from the chaotic and bustling Souks. The breakfasts saw us through the day and arrangements of transfer to and from the airport was much appreciated.

Our stay was good, fair for the price. The room was clean, but there were few things that could be better I.e there was dust around and the carpet needed hovering. The bathroom was nice, but not practical. It was all black so when you were taking shower you have to had a phone lamp on, cause the light provided was not enough. Also cosmetics were not labeled, so it was a guessing game what is what around the sink, and they were in refillable boxes (not squeezy tubes) so not really hygienic.

Lovely riad with a very hospitable team.

You can feel a Moroccan style and specialty here

Mustafa went avive and beyond ever morning and night with customer service. Riad is very charming, peaceful and just like pictures.

Love!!

What a cute and personalized experience. Highly recommend. Room was surprisingly big.

Excellent 10/10

An amazing stay! From the airport pick up and drop off, welcome into the Riad and the stay was all perfect. The breakfast was always fresh and delicious. Well recommended.

Our stay was excellent. The Riad is beautiful, clean. The staff, in particular Mehdi, was very friendly and helpful. The walk from the main hub (Jemaa el Fnaa) to the Riad is a little sketchy at night, but nothing that would stop me from staying there again. The only actual con, was that there wasn’t much lighting in the bathroom, but it might be just for the specific room I stayed in, as my friends stayed in another room which had perfect lighting. Overall, I had an amazing stay and I highly recommend.

I loved every second at this riad and highly recommend.

We love this riad! The entire personnel was attentive and caring. They greet you with a smile and it feels welcoming. We really enjoyed the breakfast but did not eat dinner at the riad. There are wonderful restaurants at walking distance and we wanted to explore those. One evening we requested a beverage on the rooftop and they came to us. Our mattress was comfortable and had plenty of hot water for the shower. Would definitely come back to stay there again.

The Riad was an oasis of calm amongst the hustle and bustle of the medina. The staff were amazing with helping us to get around and making sure that everything was just right with out stay. I would definitely recommend booking the transport from the airport with them, because I am not confident I would have found the Riad on my own straight from a flight. Breakfast was amazing each day too. Couldnt fault the property at all.

Absolute gem

Absolute gem, a spot of tranquility so close to the centre. Our room was next to the delightful plunge pool. Service was attentive.

Beautiful property with amazing hosts.

Such amazing staff! Can’t do enough for you ! From breakfast to evening drink on roof! Such amazing friendly who are do genuine ! Amazing rooms and so clean ! Can not recommend enough !!! We will be back ! Merci beacoup Mia & Steph 👍😃 x

Absolutely amazing place!

Perfect place to start your trip. The riad is located nearby the main square / Jemaa el-Fnaa where your driver/taxi woll drop you off. We arranged the pickup from the airport via the riad, which was very helpful as hotel staff was picking us up from Jemaa el-Fnaa and guided us to the riad. The riad is just amazing. Very tasteful interiors, each item seems to be perfectly selected. The room was spacious ans very clean. Breakfast is served in the patio. Every day something different... great start into a new day.

Staff was so great; walked me to restaurant and to cab pick up. Everything was clean, AC , hot water and the sheets were pristine - it was the perfect last night in Marrakech - especially after a grueling 3 days of hiking

No words needed. everything was amazing. Staff,attention,location, food. If you visit marrakech you have to stay in Riad yamina 52

Hidden gem. The rooftop and courtyard are both beautiful and calming. You are greeted from the main square and guided to the Riad where you are warmly welcomed with a lovely mint tea and nibbles. We had the traditional meal on the rooftop and it was authentic and one of the best meals of our trip. I don’t normally go back to places once I have visited but the fantastic experience and convenience of location means we definitely will be back.

Nice inside and good service. Area little sketchy and somewhat difficult to find.

Fabulous stay, amazing hosts, incredible breakfasts, stunning property!

Wow how do I describe my experience at this place. Employees are very friendly, the place very clean and it was nothing like I expect when I arrived in Marrakesh. Amazing!!! We will definitely be back! Thank you for the amazing experience !

I stayed here on my first trip to Marrakesh so it is the only riad I have stayed in. It’s a lovely place with really helpful and friendly staff. It’s only a few minutes walk from the main square but slightly hidden away so I found it pretty quiet. I really liked my room and the breakfasts were great as well.

Beautiful place, very helpful staff.

Lovely 3 night stay over the New Years holiday. Great breakfast every morning and very welcoming staff - thank you all! ❤️

A beautiful riad in the heart of the Marrakech medina. Delicious breakfasts!

Amazing Riad and very central. The breakfast was great, the room spacious and the generally a beautiful riad. The staff was available 24hrs and all really nice. Really outstanding place.

November 2023

Moha, Mehdi, and Mustafa were really great! They always went out of their way to assist in anything we needed. The entire staff were friendly and engaging. Breakfast was continental with Khobz bread, Msemen, croissants, fruit and fresh yogurt daily. Things we found out during our stay; 1. Vehicles are not allowed in the medina after 1:00pm. If you are staying at any of the riads in the medina, depending on where you are dropped-off, you may have to walk quite a way to get to your destination (about 1/2 mile in our case). 2. Although advertised as non-smoking, there were people smoking in the common areas here and apparently, it is allowed. The only other issue we had was a slow bathroom sink drain. Overall, Riad Yamina was a good value and a pleasant stay. The staff were all really great and everything was walkable (although it is easy to get lost in the souks!).

Very friendly and helpful staff, always there to help. Great dinner - one of the best in Marrakesh for 7 days. Very good breakfast.

The Riad was beautiful and the staff was outstanding! They were so helpful and gracious, we hated to leave. I definitely recommend staying here!

Favorite Riad in Marrakech

This was my second time staying here, and it is by far my favorite riad in Marrakech! The entire place is beautifully decorated and the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcomed and at home. Each room is gorgeous, unique, and comfortable. I can’t wait to come back! If you are considering booking, do it! The dinner is also delicious and can be added on to your reservation- I highly recommend it!

Excellent hotel, really lovely!

The property was so adorable and the staff are amazing. The plunge pool was great and the rooms are nice. The area around the riad was sketchy as is most places inside the Medina.

Riad staff was willing to do everything to make your stay enjoyable.

Live like a Sultan!

With all the Riads to choose from in the Medina, I took over a month to choose Riad Yamina 52. I could not have been more pleased with my choice! Giuly, the owner did an absolutely amazing job with this beautiful piece of property, which dates back to around the 1300’s! Moha, the manager met me at my taxi from the airport and took me to the Riad. Moha and the entire staff waited on me constantly. Their hospitality was without equal. I felt like a Sultan in my own palace! Every morning started with a wonderful, large breakfast of traditional Moroccan treats. What an amazing time I had! Staying at Riad Yamina 52 was a once in a lifetime treat! Trust me; you WON’T be disappointed.

Absolute gem in the heart of the Medina

We stayed in the Leila suite on one of the upper floors. We absolutely loved our stay here. We organised a transfer from the airport and were picked up and when we arrived at the main square Moha met us and guided us to the riad. We then enjoyed dinner at the riad. Our flight had been delayed so we were later than expected but nothing was a problem for Moha or the staff. We were well looked after and the dinner was delicious. One of the best meals we had in Marrakesh. I'd highly recommend it. Breakfast every morning was delicious and we were full until the afternoon. The mint tea here is the best that we had in all of Morocco and we enjoyed it in the courtyard in the evenings (it was a little chilly for the rooftop). The room (Leila) was big and comfortable and had everything we needed and had a great view over the courtyard. The riad is in an ideal location less than 5 minutes walk from the main square and is an oasis of calm and a nice break from the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh. Also, every part of the riad is photo perfect! Moha, Mustapha and all of the staff are friendly, helpful and always happy to guide you, advise you or just chat. If you have several tabs open and are deciding which riad to book in Marrakesh just stop what you're doing and book this one. You definitely won't regret it. We will definitely return.

Had a nice stay in this beautiful Riad

Beautiful place!

Beautiful Riad near the Marakech market.

The riad was quite difficult to find as a first time travler in Marrakech, however once you find it and you step in, you would be amazed with the beauty inside. The room was also clean with good space. Welcomed with a nice mint tea, we were very happy with the kind staffs and comfortable atmosphere. We found showering in the bath tub was a bit difficult but not much a big deal since other things are perfect. Around the riad are delicious food stands that you could try local food in from 10 dilham which is really cheap and yummy. Also the riad is just 10 minutes walk to the Fna bus stop so it was more cost efficient taking the local bus than paying 10 times more to the taxis since we had time.

Marrakech trip for NYE

This riad is amazing, Moha and the team really do go the extra mile. The accommodation is 5 minutes away from the craziness of the Medina but the riad is so tranquil and peaceful.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We asked where we could do laundry, and the staff said just give us what you have. We assumed it would be an extra charge, but it was “free.”

Absolutely fantastic experience staying at Riad Yamina52! The staff was so very friendly and helpful. They made us feel at home. This was a little piece of paradise and a great place to escape the very busy Medina. Breakfast every morning was so delicious, I cannot say enough positive things about this place and our experience! I would definitely stay here again!

Amazing stay

Riad Yamina was our favourite riad during our trip. The riad looked even better than the photos and the decor was very authentic and cute. The entire hotel was very clean and the staff were very polite and helpful. Each morning we were given a delicious breakfast and we were offered Moroccan tea when we wanted. The location of the riad is very conveniently located in the heart of the Medina. We highly recommend booking here!

Stay here!!!

This place is incredible! Our room was so beautifully decorated, clean and the bed was really comfortable. We had our own lovely little balcony too. The pool area with trees and birds was so nice and peaceful, such an oasis when you need to escape the exciting madness of the Médina. All the staff were so friendly, kind and helpful offering tips for where to eat and visit. The breakfasts were so good and we had dinner on the rooftop one night too, which was amazing!! Definitely the best place we stayed during our time in Morocco! Would love to stay again one day!

It was so incredibly peaceful after the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh. The rooms was a good size, clean and comfortable.

I can’t praise this Riad enough. I stayed with my friend for 4 nights and we both absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay. The room is spacious, very clean and so pretty. We felt very comfortable. The breakfast is fresh and very yummy. The location is perfect as it’s a 3 min walk to the main square Jemaa el-Fna and a 10-15 min walk to main sights. The hosts were fabulous. Both Moha who looks after the place as well as the hotel owner made us feel very welcomed and have been very helpful. We booked a tour to the Ourika Valley through the hotel which was amazing. The tour includes a drive through the villages where Moroccan Argan Oil is produced and an (easy) climb on the Atlas mountain. Our private guide/driver Ahmed was fabulous. He was very insightful and friendly. Due to a misunderstanding we overpaid him but he made sure we got our money back. Make sure to ask for him when booking a tour. I am so happy I booked this riad. Will return any time I will be back in Marrakesh.

An oasis in Medina

I was pleasantly surprised by the calm experience at Riad Yamina. The hotel is beautifully decorated and the breakfast was excellent.

C’était incroyable ! Le RIAD est magnifique le petit déjeuner est excellent et que dire de Medhi et Mohamed un grand merci à vous pour votre disponibilité et votre dévouement je vous remercie vous en particulier mais je n’oublie pas le reste de votre équipe. Merci à tout le monde vous nous avez offert une hospitalité digne de ce nom.

El ryad nos has encantado. Es muy bonito y tranquilo por dentro, además el personal es muy amable y siempre a disposición para cualquier ayuda que se necesite. El desayuno muy completo también, y cada día van variando un poco, los cual esta muy bien. La localización es muy buena también, a pasos de la plaza y con tiendas alrededor. Muy recomendable!
