Les Jardins Mandaline — Hotel in Marrakesh Prefecture

Just returned home after a few days in Marrakesh. The raid is in a good location on the edge of the Médina and it takes about 10 minutes to walk to the main square. We had a lovely room on the first floor and the room was tastefully decorated. There was some refurbishment going on which was noisy at times. There are no tea and coffee facilities in the room which we missed as it would have been nice to make our own drink. Breakfast was simple but changed slightly each day however, the basics consisted of breads and jams.||||There were two things I took issue with, the two guys serving breakfast had streaming colds and sneezed over breakfast and in their hands each day. They made no attempts to wash them considering the guests were sat facing them at breakfast. Secondly, One of the guys was insistent to the point of being rude that we pay our raid bill the night before checkout when we had just returned from a really enjoyable evening out. At checkin, we had been advised to pay the bill at check-out by the nice women on reception so it left our stay on a bitter note. We won’t be returning...

..Just do not expect the pool to be as big as in the pics because you will be disappointed otherwise!|Jokes asides, here's my experience with them:|- Position: really good! Just right in the Medina but also enough far away from it to leave all the noises behind.|- Breakfast: amazing! Everyday something new and everything tasted really good. |- Bedroom condition: mine was actually good! Clean and tidy everyday, just a bit too dark. The shower was not really confortable but nothing serious.|- Staff: almost all of them have been really friendly and kind. |What I really liked: the birds that were inside the riad, singing you the good morning while flying from one spot to the other one.|What I didn't like: their fare from the riad to the airport and the fact that when I have asked how I could have reached the Riad they answered me that they do not do pick up service (fair enough) and suggested me to use an app I wasn't able to actually use. When I went to the riad I tried to ask help to understand how to use it but nobody actually showed me. |Overall, I would say it has been...

I am surprised how friendly were the staff. Ismail , Mohammed , Halib and the rest were very friendly and they speak good English. The transfer from and to the airport was very smooth and reliable.|| The room Malak was nice, traditional decoration and as expected. Hot water all times and super fast wi-fi. The lady that cleans is very professional and the room was super-clean. We work in a hotel and we can say that....|| The Riad is in a fair distane from the square. Just 10 minutes walk. || The pool is awesome...keep it that way....What better than a warm pool in Marrakech in December?|||| Breaksfast is good. Fresh orange juice, crepes, tea, coffee, milk , bread. ||||Small details are missing. Like eggs in the breakfast.more fruits, humidifier in the room and competitive prices...but as i said...thats small...
