The staff was beyond compare. Kind, happy, helpful. The location amazing if you desire to be right in the heart of the Medina. The beds super comfortable; the riad a quiet, calm respite from the bustling souks - we slept amazingly! Breakfast was delish & plentiful. Phenomenal traditional pastries greeted us in our room. Laundry was done quickly & stained clothes came back clean - obvious that attention & care was given. All tours & guides booked thru riad were fantastic & so reasonably priced. We arrived after midnight & the hotel’s arranged driver was there waiting for us, then their other employee met the transport at the square to take our many heavy bags in a wheel barrel like cart thru the square & souks to the riad. SEEMLESS. EASY. Hammam services weren’t fancy but nonetheless excellent! Loved!

This place is truly amazing; i was searching online for days and days for the perfect riad.. and finally decided for this one! The location is TOP, next to the souls but on a side street that is quiet, clean with lots of light; you will feel safe walking back at night, trust me on this! The rooms are clean, equipped with tv, ac, kettle pot, fridge etc. The staff is really nice, gave us tea and sweets and were there at all times The cleaning ladies arranged our bed and bathroom DAILLY ❤️ Also i must mention MIMI ❤️ cutest staff member!

I loved everything✨ only addition i have, it’s by own taste preferences; meaning the breakfast was bit too on the sweet side (totally understandable as hey serve moroccan breakfast); but would be nice to include more veggies and/or salty options. But, as I said.. personal preference not a minus for this Riad

The Riad is located in the Medina and has no direct access by car. That being said Fati arranged for a porter to pick us up at El Fna Square and bring us to the Riad. Although located in the medina market which was noisy and crowded, this Riad in itself is very quiet and peaceful. The Riad is well maintained and all the staff including Fati, Azedine, Ayman and Abdo would go out of their way to be helpful. The location is great as you are minutes from the square and can access all the sites within 15 mins walk. The breakfast is good and they try to vary it a bit on a daily basis. We had dinner at the rooftop and it was very good. We also did the hamam and massage in the Riad, which was excellent. I would recommend this Riad as a great place to stay in.

**A Delightful Two-Night Stay at Riad L'Etoile D'Orient** Our recent two-night stay at Riad L'Etoile D'Orient in the heart of the walled old Medina of Marrakech was truly memorable. The riad has been masterfully refurbished, blending the charm of a traditional riad with the elegance of modern contemporary decor. This fusion creates a unique and inviting atmosphere that we absolutely adored. From the moment we arrived, Fatima and her team welcomed us with open arms. Their warmth and hospitality were evident as they went out of their way to make us feel at home. They were incredibly helpful throughout our stay, always happy to assist us with any needs or inquiries we had. Their genuine care and attentiveness added a personal touch that made our experience even more special. Each morning, we enjoyed a standard traditional Moroccan breakfast, which was a delightful way to start our day. The spacious and comfortable room provided a serene retreat after our daily adventures in the bustling city. The riad's location was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our stay; being situated within the old Medina allowed us to easily explore the vibrant culture and historical sites of Marrakech with Jema el fnaa square being only a 4 minute walk away. We are deeply grateful to Fatima and her team for providing us with such a wonderful stay. Their exceptional service and the beautiful riad made our visit to Marrakech unforgettable. We highly recommend Riad L'Etoile D'Orient to anyone seeking a perfect blend of tradition and modern comfort in an ideal location.

A perfect place to stay for a few days to be in the heart of the vibe of the medina. The staff in the hotel could not have been more friendly or helpful. We had breakfast included which was a varied and great start to the day. We dined in the Riad on our first night and the meal was authentic local cuisine and very tasty - would certainly recommend it to others.

It is difficult to find fault in any way. You are in the heart of the city so there will be some noise early in the morning but that is only to be expected. The call to prayer is also part of the experience!

Stayed in the green riad which was stunning The value for money was exceptional The rooftop terrace is beautiful with great views Breakfast was delicious The rooms all have en suites with good facilities & the Riad is beautifully decorated. I would absolutely recommend it & go back!

The rooms are maybe a little small but the Riad is very big & it never felt cramped. The staff are amazing & so helpful & kind however there's always someone in the Riad so there's not always much privacy during the day which is a shame. The Riad can be a bit difficult to find, particularly at night. I'd recommend dropping a pin on your phone map before going out so you can find it again particularly as there are no signs leading to it or outside the door.

The location is in the city centre, however, probably due to holiday season it took time to get to the Riad at night, as taxis couldn’t pass through the crowd so we alighted far away from the Riad at night. The Riad staff provided taxi on request and also someone to accompany us from the Riad to where the taxi packed. Overall, the staffs were lovely. I requested for early breakfast most days and they came through. The accommodation was so clean, overly and thoroughly cleaned always, thanks to Yakut (not sure I spelt that well). The admin staffs too lovely, same were the ladies in charge of our massage sessions. Superb ❤️ All in all 10/10

The staff were all very friendly, and the breakfast was good. The location is near the main market square, but not right on it--convenient but without the noise.

We don't recommend booking outings through the riad. We had a driver who drove dangerously fast on winding mountain roads and engaged in road rage with another vehicle while driving us back from an outing. We complained about it, but the same driver was sent to drive us on the next outing! The beds are very hard, like sleeping on a concrete slab. I understand this is typical in Morocco, so don't let that put you off too much as it is probably similar in other riads.

Congratulations, you’ve found a gem here!! I spent days trawling search engines, playing around with search filters and reading reviews to find the perfect place to stay. I can happily say the hotel didn’t disappoint. Riad L’Etoile D’Orient ticks every box! - Located just 5 minutes walk from the souks and Jemaa El Fna square - Clean, modern rooms with mini fridge, safe, iron, and hairdryer - Excellent attentive staff always available to offer help and advice. - The most affordable Riad in comparison to others in the Medina of similar style and facilities - Jacuzzi on the roof terrace was amazing. There is no pool in this Riad but I prefer a hot jacuzzi over a cold, unheated, decorative pool any day! - Yummy breakfast If you’ve made up you mind that you’d like to stay in the heart of the Medina, in a Riad as opposed to a hotel, then this is certainly for you. If I ever return to Marrakech, this is where I’ll be staying!

Not so much a negative and may not apply to all the rooms, but the open plan bathroom layout with a clear glass shower door doesn’t offer much privacy when friends are sharing the room. We used a spare bedsheet to drape over the door. Simple fix.

Where to start... When we arrived, Adezine provided us with fresh mint tea and discussed the best tourist attractions/things to look our for in Marrakech. Given that this was our first time here, it was really helpful! Then, we were given a full tour of the riad, and Adezine answered all of our questions. We had lovely breakfast served every morning and a friendly welcome every afternoon. The staff made the experience so enjoyable with their attentiveness and warmth. Adezine helped us plan our day in Agadir and helped with our transfer as the language barrier was difficult for us. Abdo was also very attentive and friendly, he helped us with the AC without hesitation and checked in with us throughout our stay. The hammam was amazing and so worth the money, and the riad is just beautiful. I really liked the location as we could get to the medina within minutes. I would 10000% recommend this stay and I will be returning here the next time I visit. Thank you :)
