Everything about our stay at Riad Nafis was brilliant; the staff are some of the kindest and most hospitable people we have ever met. As soon as we arrived, we were invited up to the terrace for complimentary Moroccan tea/snacks. Mr Yassine met us in the morning and gave us some very useful information and tips. The room and facilities were fantastic, we enjoyed the pool downstairs and the terrace upstairs. Very clean; breakfast was lovely and varied over the 4 mornings we were there. Very handy location into the medina. The staff were incredibly helpful and we were looked after very well. We will be back insh’allah!

The place is gorgeous, the room is large enough and with style, the terrace very nice, the breakfast very nice and complete, we were even served before the hour when we went for an early activity. The bed is comfortable, the bathroom large, maybe the light not enough for putting the make up :) It seems to be in a safe area as the palace is just around the corner. We ate around, at small local places, very tasty. Easy to find taxis and there seems to be many buses around.

The swimming pool is rather small(er) than in the photos. We were told it is open so we can use it but it is actually in open air so for early Jan was way too cold to use it - this created frustration as we expected to have a place with swiming pool (that seems indoor in the photos!)... As it has the riad form, in case the other guests are noisy, it is easy to be disturbed as the windows and the door give on the internal patio - not our case as we were lucky with reasonable people but keep this in mind.

Exceptional stay, Yassine and his staff really care about your stay. Trips can be arranged, taxis to and from airport, even offering a breakfast early. The breakfast was always plentiful, varied and delicious. Take the opportunity to have a meal as it is tasty homemade food. Very clean, well situated next to the Palace, 10 minute walk to the main square, market place Jemaa el-Fnaa and in our opinion the perfect Riad to explore Marrakech. What a welcome to Morocco, we will be back.

There is nothing we didn’t like. We had a very small issue which was entirely a misunderstanding on our part and Yassine responded immediately, offered us a solution and couldn’t have been kinder to make our stay an exceptional experience. A massive thank you to all the Riad Nafis team.

Beautiful riad in Marrakech, and our experience was exceptional. The location was perfect—tucked away in a quiet, authentic neighborhood but still within walking distance of the main attractions. The riad itself was spotless, with an elegant blend of traditional design and modern comfort. The pool was a wonderful retreat after a day of exploring the city, and we spent many afternoons relaxing there. Breakfast was simply on point—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented every morning. One small suggestion for improvement would be adding locks to the rooms for extra security, which would give an additional sense of privacy. Otherwise, everything was fantastic, and we highly recommend staying here for an unforgettable experience!

Locks in the Room

Location was great, exactly as described. Yas came to greet us from the main road as a thoughtful gesture as we would have most certainly got lost getting to the riad initially! Breakfast was very homely, tasty coffee and assortment of fresh pastries, yoghurt, eggs on request too. Incredibly helpful staff; nothing was too much effort from booking us a massage to arranging a bottle for us to enjoy by the pool. Our highlight was enjoying time spent on the roof terrace, with distant views of the atlas mountains in a tranquil setting. We would 100% recommend Riad Nafis and Yas's home from home style accomodation and would like to visit again. Thank you :)

We can't think of anything!

A most beautiful Riad in the south west corner of the Medina, a short work to the main square and the southern attractions. A 20-minute walk to the Hivernage area in the newer area of the city. Delicious breakfast and lovely furnishing throughout the Riad. Friendly and helpful staff.

The only downside was a sleepless second night, owing to persistent noise and low vibration from an air conditioning unit for another room attached to the outside wall of my room … Ear plugs probably worth packing.

It's an amazing place to come back to, like another home. - You can rest on the rooftop - comfortable sofas and tables with a great view. - Beautiful and calming interior with a pool as a heart of the riad. - They're very welcome hosts and helped to book the restaurants and the camel trip. - It smells amazing inside! They use products with bitter orange. - You can have the local tea any time you'd like.

It is located close to the main tourist attractions and the city center, but to walk to the center you need to cross a couple of main busy roads. It's stressful as the cars never stop and the rare lights are ignored. - It's a minaret nearby and the prayers can wake you up early in the morning. But it's authentic! - The swimming pool was too cold in November. Not a surprise!

Superb. Riad Nafis combines the comfort of a family home with the care of a top end hotel. Excellent location in quiet alley, but close to everything. The decor is tasteful and traditional Moroccan. The terrace is lovely in the early mornings and late evenings. The pool was a god send in the heatwave. Yanice and staff could not have done more for us. The evening meals were fantastic, home cooked, tasty, great value and well served.

Nothing, except having to leave.

The staff and owner were exceptional, they make the place, the super little Riad it is. Nothing was to much trouble, it was all done with a smile, and all spoke very good English, my son and I felt like we’d got our own personal butler! Very very good value for money and no extras put on, unlike other places I have stayed. On arrival wondered if area was safe, but after a couple of days and the realisation it is next to Place with lots of security, didn’t have a problem, if we had, had a problem the Riad owner had given us his WhatsApp and said “any problems call, anytime of day or night”

Struggling to find anything, but the shower head when placed in wall mount, had a mind of its own, and I managed to soak the bathroom floor every time I had a shower.

Everything about this stay was excellent. The breakfast was amazing, the staff were exceptional and really made us feel welcome. We had dinner on our last night and it was the best meal of our whole stay! The location was amazing and is right between the new and old town, so everything was walking distance. When I come back to Marrakech I will definitely be staying here again!

Nothing, everything was perfect!
