This Riad is a little treasure in the midst of a place which is still catching up after an earthquake in 2023. When you are walking to the Riad, you wonder what you are walking towards. The surrounding area is not plush, if plush and nice is what you are after then this is not the holiday area for you. If you are open minded and willing to embrace the local culture, then you are in for a treat. The Riad itself when you enter through the door is really nice. The welcome from the staff is great, with a local tea 🍵 to help you settle in. The room itself, although quite narrow has loads of space to get changed and store your clothes. The shower room was nice with nice towels and a hairdryer and straighteners for those who need. Plenty of hot water. Bottles of water are provided daily for your teeth brushing etc. There is no fridge in the room but plenty of plug sockets for your charging points. Breakfast each morning was slightly different each day, with a good selection of bread, eggs, yoghurt and delicious fresh fruit which really did fill you up to the point where my wife and I did not need any lunch. Really nice rooftop seating area for lounging in the sun should you wish to relax for an hour or so. Breakfast is also served up there. The area itself is really interesting. The people are really nice and don't get pushy when you are wandering through the old city streets. Lots to do and see for about a 4 day trip but not much longer. Loads of nice places to eat at night. Just wander about and find some fantastic roof top restaurants for your evening meal. Dishes were good, tagines fantastic but not large Portions, but good value for the money. Taxi from the airport to the medina is £15 which you will find straight outside the airport. You pay at a booth and get a taxi number and ticket, same price on the way back, no issues. Swap your money in the airport exchange. Good amount of cash machines in and around the streets, we found bank of Africa really good. Don't expect to have alcohol on offer in all the restaurants as it is a predominantly Muslim country. You can find a drink if you need to at some restaurants. Overall we really enjoyed our stay in this Riad with the Staff team who were all fantastic. We would recommend this Riad as a really good base for your stay...
Read moreWe had a lovely time here! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Even late at night they were there to help and arrange early breakfast for us. And he made us English tea at midnight which was very sweet. And there's a resident turtle on the terrace!!!
The room is clean and comfortable. The bathroom is honestly nicer than the pictures make it seem! Daily housekeeping and they were changing the towels and reorganizing everyday. The ac was nice and worked well.
Breakfast was delicious and they swapped a few things around everyday. They have housemade yogurt which was delicious and our favourite.
Only thing to note is it's a littttle far from the main square and the walk back late at night needs a detour as some souk doors are shut. There are many cafes and restaurants nearby though!
Thank you Melanie and the rest of...
Read moreIn the middle of the old medina, Riad Adriana is very close to the majority of the monuments and touristic places worth visiting. We arrived there at night so all the narrow streets were very empty yet safe. We were welcomed warmly with some nice Moroccan tea and pastries and after filling the forms, we were invited to follow the concierge to our room. The rooms are a work of art, a combination between tradition and modernity, you have your own bathroom and shower inside the room and then you have several spaces down in the riad where you can sit, work, read or do any other activity. There is also a rooftop from where you can enjoy the Marrakechi sun and get a tan.
I recommend staying in the riad for its proximity, its vibes and the warmth...
