Riad alwane will forever have a special place in my heart. First time being in Morocco and got to stay in this beautiful boutique riad. I’d say for the price you are paying you are getting your moneys worth, with a lovely sun top terrace to lay and down stairs with a pool that was too cool for us to go on but lovely for the atheistic. You have a yummy breakfast every morning with the sun shining down on you.

The location. It was quite hard to find once we first arrived. However our taxi driver located us to the right alley way. On google maps this won’t work so maybe ask the driver for help or contact riad. It is generally safe with the locals in the streets and is only a 15/20 minute walk to the souks. It’s a 20 minute walk away from main attraction (Ben youseff ) and atay cafe.

It was cosy, room was clean and the staff were excellent. Such a friendly vibe off the place. The breakfast was lovely and had great variety.

The location seemed a bit out of the way. 25 minute walk walk from most sights. Do NOT take directional advice from anyone that you did not ask for, we were harassed and threatened twice within the first two days by the same two young lads (politely tell the people to F off and do not offer your money). That being said the location felt safer and safer as the days went on. Beware the morning chirps of the birds! And maybe the short warm water duration in the shower :)

The riad was very beautiful, peaceful and well-maintained. I like the fact that its secure and staff were very friendly. Driver from the airport called them around 12mn to pick me up at nearby stop since property is in the middle of the souk and taxis couldn’t get in that narrow road, I forgot the staff name but he was very nice and kind to pick me up at that area in the middle of the night. My card didn’t work for payment, I tried to withdraw from the machine the next day but couldn’t so Aziz took me to an ATM and helped. That was above and beyond in hospitality. Free breakfast was offered, coffee was really great. Rooftop patio is really nice considering the weather, could use a little tan.

– Cleaned daily and thoroughly by three nice and respectful people – Quite beautiful on the inside, especially the court part – When we had a bad experience on our way to the riad, the manager was able to deescalate the situation

– The neighborhood is really poor, more so than the rest of the medina. Make sure to always get home during daylight hours or be prepared to get followed by (groups of) people that’ll try to provide little services or just beg for money directly, and intensely. – We could hear everything through the walls and the plexiglass of the winter garden. – When we paid the city tax and asked for a receipt, they would first make fun of it, then look through several drawers, and eventually scribble some sentences in arabic on a notepad. We later found out that it‘s quite common to not provide receipts in Morocco but I still feel like a request like that should be handled a lot more professionally

The hosts are so hospitable and accommodating. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was superb, from welcoming us when we returned for the day, or preparing breakfast and dinner to accommodate our schedule, and bringing us tea in the evening. We had to leave early one morning before breakfast and they even prepared some food to-go for us! The dinners here are amazing and we highly recommend! Our favorite dish of the trip was prepared by the riad: the beef with figs!

As other travelers have posted, the riad is 25-minute walk from the Medina. Vehicles cannot fit down the road of the riad, but they will get you within a two-minute walk. The neighborhood looks a little sketchy, but we felt safe. The locals in that area sometimes offered to help us or hailed us as we walked by. There are a lot of children playing in the streets in this area, I think that's a good sign it's more on the safe side.

Beautiful Riad with a really nice rooftop and refreshing pool. The guy working there at evening/ night helped us with everything, from booking taxi to explaining to us the city and the streets. He made us feel safe coming back to the riad in the evening. The breakfast was also very nice, good variation and good price.

The location felt unsafe for us 2 girls, it was difficult to find the riad and the people outside followed us to the riad to then ask for money.

The breakfast everyday was fenomenal and we thought it was not included but it is and it's the best thing ever! It gives you the right food for an energetic day, all local. The room was big and it was cleaned every single day even if you get out of the room past 12pm. The terrace was great for some sunny reading after breakfast and the staff was incredible, even took copies of our flights home because the marrakesh airport doesn't accept digital ones.

The location is a bit hard to find even if you're assisting on google maps.

Absolute pleasure from arrival yo departure. Great and helpful staff all day and evening (shout out to the evening manager Mr Noureddine who was an absolute star). Riad was cleaner than the 3* hotel I moved to the week after. Breakfast is served from 8 to 10 Im the type who doesnt book the same place twice, but I could actually consider a stay Riad Alwane again 🔥 Location is a 25 minutes walk from Jemaa El Fna, and the wifi is superb

Very clean and calming atmosphere, and helpful and lovely staff members. very flexible in terms of the free breakfast and for the days we had trips they even gave us packed breakfast when asked. Breakfast was mostly sweet stuff and very much bread based which is not my style but the portions very big and definitely filled us up for the day.

The location is central but the opposite side of all the attractions so the walk for sightseeing was longer than you would think, however, I didn’t mind that at all. Location wise it’s very ‘local’ and at times it didn’t feel too safe when coming back to the hotel in the dark. I was accompanied by my boyfriend so it was alright however if you are girl traveling with other girlfriends I might rethink for a more central option. also we got a bit unlucky because we stayed there in January when it was quite cold in the riad and the pool wasn’t heated so we couldn’t swim. Also, they were preparing for the spring season so the terrace was under construction

Great place! Comfortable! Pools fantastic! Terrace was fantastic! Staff seem polite and antentive! Breakfast was nice! Very quiet and peaceful away from all the hustle and bustle, room was nice very authentic..

The location...what can i say its a maze to find, you have to google map it because it is really in the middle of the mazy medina! Cars cant drive to the entrance so you have to walk a while before finding it, there are yellow signs pointing the way that helped eventually! It cam be a bit worrying at nighttime but nevertheless ok
