    Keep in mind that you don't get a key to the main door – you can come and go as you please during the day (because someone from the staff is always there to let you back in), but I'm not sure if it's possible to go out at night (as from what we saw, the main entrance is locked at night). It didn't really bother us as we were planning our activities during the day, but I guess it's good to mention that

    We absolutely loved our stay in this riad – very good localisation, the staff was friendly, helpful and very attentive, our room, the terrace and the pool were top notch, and the breakfast was superb (lots of food, everything was fresh and there was a nice variety of spreads and toppings, fresh fruit and orange juice everyday, you get the gist). Over the course of our trip we had stayed at 7 different places in different cities and this riad was the absolute BEST of them all. Highly recommend!

    Air con was amazing but leaked and the door to the room didn’t have the best lock on it - bit of a walk to the square. Fine if you are fit and healthy to walk

    Clean. Food was nice, quiet and comfortable

    The property was very clean and beautiful mosaic features which gave a traditional Moroccan stay. The pool area was amazing and a sun trap. The rooms where a great size and fully air conditioned. Couldn’t fault anything about the rooms where.

    I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful riad! From the moment I arrived, everything was perfect — they arranged a pickup from the airport, which made my arrival so easy and stress-free. The room was spotlessly clean, very welcoming, and beautifully designed with a lot of attention to detail. It truly felt like a home away from home. The owner was incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. I especially appreciated the thoughtful gesture of preparing a breakfast to go when I couldn’t stay for the morning meal. Small touches like that made my stay truly memorable. I would highly recommend this riad to anyone looking for a warm, stylish, and personalized experience. I would definitely stay here again!

    Nothing it was 10/10

    10/10 The property was very close to the centre, but still far way enough that it was very quiet at night and a peaceful area. Rooms were very clean and spacious and the staff were exceptional! So welcoming and friendly and helped us with everything we needed to know, provided a transfer to and from the airport for a cheap price and countless facilities provided. Breakfast was also a 10/10! Also were welcomed with tea and cake when we arrived which was lovely 🫶 also very close to a taxi rank and pick ups for excursions were very very near.

    Amazing hospitality and beautiful riad

    The only concern (which is out of the riads control) is the location, down alleys in Kasbah. Our first experience leaving the riad, there was a group of men telling us to go a certain way for the markets and following us, and they seem to target people from the riads. After the first experience, they learned to leave us alone, but were loitering about the alleys when the sun went down, which can be quite daunting! Be prepared for them, and just say no thank you and walk past with confidence, they will leave you alone. This is not a reflection on the riad, and do not let it put you off booking, just more a note to take with you.

    We absolutely loved the riad, and the staff, cleanliness, breakfast and overall experience was great! Nothing was too much for the staff, and they were so efficient with helping us, and getting things done. The room was extremely clean, as was the rest of the riad, and it was lovely to sit up on the terrace and relax in the sun. Breakfast every morning was lovely, and they even brought out a cake for my partner on his birthday, which was so kind! There was no pressure to pay for beers or drinks had throughout the day, and the team went above and beyond, even booking our transport back to the airport at last minute notice.

    Nothing - the stay was amazing!

    Our welcome at the Riad was warm and friendly. Mohammad was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. He was the perfect host and made our stay really memorable. We will certainly be going back. We could not fault anything! It was a quiet oasis within the centre of Marrakesh. The evening meal on arrival (must be ordered in advance) was superb and probably the best chicken tagine we have had! The included breakfast was different everyday with fresh pancakes, omelettes, fruit, bread and cheese and always served with a smile. The room was cleaned daily to an excellent standard.

    The space in the Hammam Spa is limited, and it was a tight squeeze for even two - I would recommend only going individually

    Breakfast offered a great selection of local delicacies, ans it varied each day The location is brilliant - very much secluded and peaceful, yet still very close to the centre of town All staff were very accommodating The Riad was kept extremely clean

    I am not usually a ten out of ten person but there isn’t anything I can think of to add here - I would definitely recommend staying here on your trip to Marrakech

    This was a really exceptional place to stay - it was beautiful, peaceful and elegant - comfortable rooms, great breakfast and located in a quieter part of the centre but still within walking distance to the medina ans palaces. But as always it is the people that make the place and the team at Riad Des Lys were fantastic.

    The walk from the main square is around 15-20 mins but an easy stroll.

    Oussama and the team at Riad Des Lys were amazing, the riad has been beautiful resorted it is very comfortable, clean and has a lovely roof top with a plunge pool and sun beds. Transfers from/ to the airport can be arranged at a fair price- it is a private transfer and always on time/ waited when the plane was delayed. The Riad is in a quiet, safe area- we always felt safe with someone to greet us. I would stay at Riad Des Lys again in a heart beat- thank you for your warm hospitality!

    It was a little hard to find, but then it was off the beaten track so very very quiet.

    It was authentic and right in the middle of the Medina. The staff were exceptional (especially Mohammad) and the service was fantastic. We also had a Moroccan spa treatment there too and it was very good. We were very happy there.

    There is nothing that we didn’t like. The Riad is nice and the people working there are very welcoming. Maybe, only that the Riad is a bit smaller than how it looks from the picture.

    The riad is nice and Oussama is very friendly and welcoming. The dinner was the best, very tasty homemade tajine, and also good value for money. The terrace is small, but very pleasant.

    The water pressure in the shower wasn’t very good. The Riad is located down an alleyway which may be off putting for solo travellers at night but it wasn’t an issue for us.

    The location is great - good proximity to the airport. The place is characterful and the rooms are very clean.
