We stayed here for four days as part of our first trip to Marrakech to celebrate our twenty-fifth wedding anniversary and cannot recommend it highly enough.||The location is perfect for exploring the Souk, but behind the riad's castle-like walls is a perfect sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It might actually be the quietest night's sleep we've ever had after visiting many cities together over the years.||Architecturally, the riad is astonishing and ancient, a mix of colonial and local styles, build around a central, pillared courtyard, with mature palms and banana trees stretching up into the blue sky.||We stayed in the Sultana suite which is beautifully and traditionally decorated with a four poster bed, tiled bathroom and even a great work desk with excellent wifi.||The pool is much bigger than it looks on the website and, like everything here, is spotlessly clean and well-maintained. Hammam is available and very good.||There are also lots of quiet spaces to relax in, from roof terraces, to an indoor lounge and even a salon with a grand piano.||Also, don't over look the restaurant which is in the courtyard. Great for breakfast and perfect for a romantic dinner as well beneath the stars. The menu was excellent and well-priced and the quality of food and service outstripped many of the more famous restaurants in town, including Dar Yacout. We preferred both the food, wine, courtyard and atmosphere here at the Lamrani. Recommendations include the ballotine of mechoui (lamb) and the poulet farci (stuffed chicken).||Staff were uniformly helpful and professional, whilst helping to create a chilled, relaxed vibe, with a bit of an Ibiza feel. Thanks to everyone there for taking such good care of us.||This is the perfect gateway to a a wonderfully exciting city....

I have never been in a place where I've felt welcomed by so many people||Everything was of a high standard, nothing was too much trouble. The Décor throughout was immaculate, clean and well maintained. The authenticity of the Riad was sensational. All staff were incrediblty welcoming and helpful, from Ahmed on reception, to waiters offering recommendations, to the cleaners and the wonderful Anna who was booked for our Hammam and 2 hour massage were all exceptional, they above all else made our stay so memorable. |The large roof terrace is made up of different layers and looking down through the canopy of foliage from there to the garden below is a treat.|The Restaurant was another lovely surprise. From the outside the Riad looks unassuming but as you step down into the restaurant it is like you’ve entered a secret garden where tables were positioned on the paths in between banana trees, Palms and birdsong. Your eye is automatically drawn to the large pool at the end of the path, beckoning you to take a dip.|The ambiance was perfect at night as the whole area was lit by candlelight. The food delicious, wine list extensive.. However, just missing an addition of a sweet wine and it would have been perfect. The service was wonderful, our waiter was so attentive and accomodating. Overall, this was an incredible dining experience. I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this Riad to others.|The Riad is walking distance to the Medina for shopping, but still quiet enough from all the hustle and bustle that is Jemaa El Fna.||A hidden gem in this...
Read morePalais Lamrani è un meraviglioso riad storico nella Medina.|In posizione comoda per visitare tutti i punti di interesse, è un piccolo paradiso di tranquillità nel caos cittadino.|La struttura è molto elegante e ben tenuta, con opere d'arte appese ai muri, piastrelle colorate dovunque, sale, salette, tutte tipiche ed accoglienti, e una bella serie di balconi sul tetto da cui si può godere un bel panorama sulla città a 360 gradi.|Ma a farla da padrone, per il mio gusto personale, è il favoloso e rigoglioso giardino interno, con piante altissime, una bella fontana centrale e i tavolini su cui, accompagnati dal canto degli uccellini si può gustare una deliziosa colazione (dolce e salata) oppure alla sera, con le luci soffuse, un'ottima cena romantica (anche la cucina del ristorante è davvero buona!).|Godersi la tranquillità di questo posto è un piacere incomparabile.|Accanto al giardino, un piccolo cancello conduce in un cortile adiacente, quasi interamente occupato dalla bella piscina che però, non prendendo quasi mai il sole, in questo periodo dell'anno risultava con l'acqua un po' fredda: ma siamo a inizio novembre e quindi direi che non c'è di che lamentarsi.|La nostra camera, "la sultane", così come altre, affacciava direttamente sul giardino, con un patio privato dotato di paraventi (per un po' di privacy), due poltroncine con tavolino e due chaise long su cui rilassarsi; qui è ci è stato offerto il te all'arrivo.|La camera ampia e tipicamente arredata è risultata tranquillissima, silenziosa e con un letto piuttosto comodo.|Dotata di zona salotto, zona ufficio con scrivania e di piccola cabina armadio, consente di muoversi e di gustarsela come si deve.|Certo trattandosi di struttura storica, bisogna accettare qualche piccolo "sacrificio", per esempio la doccia all'interno della vasca, ma è una cosa non solo accettabile ma benvenuta, in un posto del genere.|Menzione speciale a Mohammed, che fin dai primi contatti mail si è dimostrato essere una persona preparata, disponibile e cortese; una volta arrivati la sua squisita presenza e professionalità ci è stata di immenso aiuto per qualsiasi cosa (suggerimento di ristoranti, della SPA, organizzazione di gite, ecc.): un plus indispensabile per un riad di questo livello. Grazie!|Concludendo: un posto bellissimo dove abbiamo passato 3 giorni indimenticabili e dove già sogniamo di poter un...
