This Riad is a real gem - we were looked after so well and the building was beautiful with everything we could need. The staff are all friendly and attentive, and Allan was very approachable and helpful the whole stay. The food was amazing and the location is really central to everything we needed. The rooftop was a real bonus too - especially for relaxing evenings. Highly recommend.

We had a fantastic stay at Riad El Zohar. Its location is ideal for exploring the city—right in the heart of the Medina, yet offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. The staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. We especially loved watching the sunset from the rooftop terrace and waking up to the sound of birds in the morning. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. We highly recommend this beautiful riad to anyone visiting Marrakech.

The staff was excellent, especially Erradi and Morad. This is a small quiet boutique hotel very close to the center of Marrakech but tucked away in a quiet alley/walkways inside the medina. We enjoyed a beer or glass of wine each evening after shopping or touring on the rooftop. We enjoyed dinner there our first night after a day of travel. Allan was very helpful in all of his responses to our inquires.
