Great place to stay in Marrakech

Had a wonderful few days staying at Riad Zarka. It is situated in the heart of the action, close to all the markets and yet very quiet and peaceful to relax and sleep. Simon went out of his way to look after me, even leaving out a flask of coffee and some breakfast for a 6am start for a tour.

The property was easy to find, extremely clean, and matched the description and photos. The bathroom was great and the bed/bedding was super comfortable and the AC worked great! Our host, Abdul, was fantastic. He made us feel extremely safe and comfortable and even made us an early breakfast for our early checkout. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

You can't go wrong with this place. Abdou, especially, was wonderful. He took the time to go over the map, highlight important places like ATM and banks and, of course the main attractions. He was extremely attentive towards my stay. In fact, the whole staff is the reason I booked another two nights at the hotel before my return trip.

Great stay

Friendly service and great breakfast. Riad is steps away from the Medina. Only issue is taxi availability, need to coordinate transportation with front desk ahead of time. Front desk did a good job getting us help to bring our luggage and connect with taxi driver. Riad is a bit difficult to find but once located, it is easy to get to.

Brilliant stay and much needed

The stay was very calm and the staff was brilliant and very sweet and talkative especially Oussama who helped us a lot and generally was a nice person. The room had good aircondition, a nice bed and a big and good bathroom. The only negative is that it's a bit difficult to find especially at night so be sure to download directions or get a SIM card with internet from the airport.

Eine meiner besten UnterkĂŒnfte! Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam. Man wird mit Tee und SĂŒĂŸigkeiten empfangen. Die Zimmer - wenngleich wie in jedem Riad relativ klein - sind sehr liebe- und geschmackvoll eingericht. Alles mit RosenblĂ€ttern dekoriert. Sollte ich wieder nach Marrakesh reisen, wird es meine erste Wahl sein!

GrundsĂ€tzlich ein hĂŒbsches GebĂ€ude in zentraler Lage. Doch leider nur Probleme. Das Hotel hat es nicht geschafft die zusĂ€tzlich gebuchte dritte Übernachtung zu den beiden anderen hinzuzufĂŒgen obwohl bei der Buchung noch mehrere Zimmer frei waren. Man dachte wir wĂŒrden nur eine Nacht bleiben und wir mussten nach einem Tag umziehen. Man konnte uns außerdem nicht den Unterschied von Standard und Superior erklĂ€ren. Wir haben fĂŒr alle 3 NĂ€chte Superior bezahlt. Die Zimmer waren aber nicht anders. Außerdem hat man uns die Citytax zwei mal berechnet. Die inkompetente Dame die uns geöffnet hat, hat uns trotz vorheriger Absprache der Uhrzeit nach einer langen Tour noch 45 Minuten auf das Zimmer warten lassen. Sie hat uns dabei schon die Citytax abkassiert und hinterher behauptet sie hĂ€tte es nicht. Wir zahlten dann doppelt weil wir nicht mehr diskutieren wollten. Die wiederholten Schwierigkeiten hatten uns lange genug von unseren Vorhaben in Marrakech abgehalten. Sehr unangenehm. Schlafen war auch kaum möglich. Das Personal hört bis Mitternacht laut Musik.
