    I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful riad! From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was truly exceptional the staff were warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. The atmosphere of the riad was peaceful and authentic, with charming decor that made me feel right at home. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and I really appreciated the personal touches throughout my stay. I would highly recommend this riad to anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing experience. Thank you for making my visit so special!

    The streets in all of Marrakesh are a bit intimidating at times, but once we got used to it, it was fine

    Though the trip to it was a bit intimidating, once we’ve arrived, I felt very relaxed and happy. The staff were super welcoming and the riad itself is incredibly beautiful with many spots for hanging out and resting (in shade, away from the heat)

    Nothing, everything is just perfect!

    I normally have no tendency towards sentimental exaggeration. But when I was sitting (having breakfast) under the fragrant orange tree in awesome Riad Emberiza Sahari, taking in the atmosphere, looking at the potted palmtree and the gorgeous white curtains, both swaying gently in the wind - I was believing that I was in heaven! Having travelled the world and stayed at the most marvellous accomodations I am now convinced that Riad Emberiza Sahari is in a class of its own. I have never experienced a warmer welcome. All the staff are just lovely. My room was not only very beautiful, tasteful and comfy, it gave me a feeling like it wanted to embrace me and gently rock me to the best sleep EVER at night. The furniture, the cosy bathroom with the fragrant shower gel, the cute white poufs, the fabulous lamps, the superb decoration.... I loved everything! Breakfast was splendid, its quality way above usual Moroccan breakfasts, and all my other breakfasts on my Morocco trips already were fantastic! When I told the lovely guy that THIS crêpe had been the best I had ever eaten, he came back in no time with the most affectionate smile to serve me a second crêpe! And this was only one of the many wonderful moments at the Riad. As I have been to Marrakesh several times it was not really my intention to visit again, I assumed. But when, after checkout, I asked if I could stay for 10 more minutes or so on the roof terrace and was told I could stay for ten hours or so I had already been sure for quite some time that I would visit Marrakesh again - simply to stay at Riad Emberiza Sahari again! A huge thank you and many hugs to all the lovely people working there for the happiness of their guests!

    The distance is slightly away from the square and main souks but sometimes you have to walk along a busy road to get back

    Everything. From the minute you enter. The ambience and hospitality makes you feel relaxed and happy. The hosts treat you like guests. The rooms are super comfortable and bright and airy.

    We had an amazing stay at Riad Emberiza! All the staff were so kind, especially for our little baby boy. They made our stay truly wonderful. The room was impeccable. Beautiful interior and very clean. And than the food, we stayed for 7 days and everyday a different breakfast. The Riad is very well located in the medina in a little bit more quiet area, which was nice. If you have to chance to stay here, do so!

    Such a vibrant place! If we return to Marrakech (not during Ramadan!) we would always stay here!!

    The Riad is adjacent to a mosque, which is very nice to look at from the rooftop terrace, but the calls to prayer are extremely loud. Until we arrived we hadn't realised that we had booked our stay during Ramadan, and we were awoken each morning at 4.10am by a 'call' for people to wake up and eat before sunrise (as Muslims are not allowed to eat during daylight hours during Ramadan). The loud 'call' lasted for 10 minutes and then (somewhat amazingly, we thought) was repeated at 5.10am, which seriously affected our sleep. Also during Ramadan, the only 'off license' in Marrakech was closed for the duration. Despite this, we managed to find some very good restaurants selling alcohol, mainly thanks to an internet blog from an English guy living in Marrakech.

    The staff were all fantastic and would do anything and everything to try to make our stay enjoyable. One day I mentioned to the Manager, Youness, that it was my wife's birthday we returned from a visit to the excellent Alphais Spa (Hammam) and found a bouquet of roses in our room, and balloons and rose petals everywhere! The accommodation was very nice indeed (except for the fact that our suite did not have the private kitchen that was advertised - for which recompense was quickly agreed by Booking.com on our return). The rooftop terrace, with views of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, was a great place to have breakfast and to sunbathe.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Riad Emberiza Sahari; it was incredible! My friends enjoyed the breakfast every morning, and the hospitality and attentiveness from the staff were amazing. Brahim, in particular, was incredibly helpful with breakfast and assisted us with negotiating taxi ride fares whenever we needed it. They took excellent care of us, especially the host. The riad’s central location in the medina made it very convenient for exploring. We would highly recommend it and hope we can come back one day!
