Excellent location for souks etc. Staff friendly and efficient. Rooms comfortable and basic. Hammam/ Spa afternoon was the highlight!

Breakfasts were ok but too much plain cake/ bread. Had to ask for omelette. More variety with eggs ( boiled or scrambled), fruit and cheese would be better than all the cakes/ pancakes/ bread. On our 2nd day all wood was varnished around the riad, including our room inside and out. The vanish smell was strong and not good to breathe in all day and night and the wood/ handles etc were sticky for 2 days. No warning was given and workmen in our room without our permission. This was not good in our opinion. The smell was quite toxic.

The place is very authentic. Is at the heart of the Medina, 5 mins walking to the place Jamaa el Fna, Zoco and main Museums. The best part is the service. It is really a home far of home. Khaled (I hope to have taken well his name) was like a big brother for me. He was very kind, helpful and fun. Breakfasts was awesome and abundant. Rooms were very confortble and big. My parents, husband, child and me were very happy at this place.

The location is tricky it has alleys, and dark to walk in the night. We felt unsure to go out at night not for safety but afraid to get lost (probably a nice adventure for adults but not in my case). Anyways we moved easily navigating using google maps. Second day we've learnt the path so we went out confidently. I really advice to get the transportation from/to airport with the hotel.

We booked Riad Maialou for our guests for a two-night stay, and they absolutely loved it. The riad has a beautiful, authentic Moroccan atmosphere with stunning architecture that made them feel immersed in the local culture. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, even arranging an early airport transfer, which made their departure smooth and stress-free. The location is perfect, just a short walk from Jemaa el-Fna Square in the heart of the Medina, making it easy to explore the vibrant surroundings. The rooms were incredibly comfortable and relaxing, offering a peaceful escape after busy days of sightseeing. Our guests especially loved the breakfast at the riad, which was fresh, delicious, and the perfect start to each day. Overall, they had an amazing experience and were very happy with their stay at Riad Maialou. We highly recommend it!

Honestly, our guests had nothing negative to say about their stay at Riad Maialou. Everything was perfect, from the welcoming and helpful staff to the beautifully designed, comfortable rooms and the convenient location near Jemaa el-Fna Square. They couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we highly recommend this riad for anyone seeking an authentic and relaxing stay in Marrakech.

This felt like peace in the middle of the Medina. We had arrived after completing the Toubkal trek and could not have asked for any better. It felt very safe and secure by having an intercom to enter the building. Rooms were comfortable and it was very quiet and clean. The staff went above and beyond for us from being attentive, arranging massages for us and even booking us a taxi and taking us to the taxi with our luggage when we left. I would recommend this place to anybody wanting to stay in Marrakech.

It was difficult to find at first but I think that's a given in Marrakech as it is like a maze!

Riad Maialou exceeded our expectations. Cannot recommend this place enough for others. Rachid was extremely friendly and helpful, we got everything we asked for, advice and help. All of the staff were super helpful. We had nice traditional breakfast every morning that we enjoyed a lot. One night we had a meal booked that the riad. Meal was great, traditional. We also had hammam booked, again, it was really good experience, unfortunately we didn’t have time for the massage. Riad is just a short walk from the main square and all the markets, but as soon as you walked through the riads door, it’s cool and peaceful inside, contrast between busy city centre and peaceful riad is huge.

Everything was perfect. Thank you Rachid and everyone who works in Riad Maialou, our stay was perfect.

room was really clean and comfy. Nice location that you dont need to walk alot from the taxi drop. close to supermarket and center of the medina but still really clam and quite. All the staffs are really gentle and kind. Nice breakfast. really functional AC. One was my family got sick because of the heat from the desert city, fortunately this hotel was really comfortable. so she could take a great rest for rest of the travel.

the pathway to get to the hotel seems a bit sketch, but I got used to it soon

Amazing location in the heart of the Medina. Facilities were great and very clean. Riad beautifully decorated. The staff and service were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble. So friendly! We ate breakfast daily and evening meal once and were all fantastic. Very close to the main square and the main points in Marrakesh. Have been to the city numerous times and this is by far my favourite Riad and will be back for sure! First class.

This experience was absolutely amazing! Staying in Morocco at the Riad was incredible, and Youness, who took care of us during our stay, did an outstanding job. He explained everything to us in detail and made sure we were well looked after. The whole experience was simply wonderful. Highly recommended!

Location was amazing, right in the Medina. Room was lovely with a very comfy bed and the shower was excellent. The staff were very welcoming and fussed over our two young boys all the time which was lovely.

The breakfast service was slow and haphazard. We had two adults and two children yet they brought out only three of everything so we had to ask for more each morning. It wasn't a very large breakfast and left us hungry for more.

Perfectly located, hidden jewel of a Riad with a relaxed and friendly vibe. Youness in particular goes out of his way to make sure that all our needs are met. Breakfast was always delicious. We had a lovely stay, thank you for having us :)

Room on the bottom floor can be a little awkward when you need the toilet and guests are sat outside, but there is another shared toilet located on the next floor up if needed!
