Riad Noir d'Ivoire

Loved our stay at road noire D'ivore. It was luxury but felt authentic right in the middle of everything. The rooms were ompeccable- we stayed at the zebra room with the private hot tub. The service was amazing and personal. The hammam we booked was fantastic as well- we should have done it more. Oh and the restaurant was fantastic!! Would absolutely stay again.

After a long journey from Australia, we arrived in Marrakech and had high expectations Riad Noir as the photos and description look amazing. There was miscommunication between the transfer driver and Riad so we had to take our luggage through the Medina streets to find the Riad ourselves. Ive stayed in many Moroccan Riad's and this one is the largest and we booked one of their Suites, its a grand space, some of the fittings are broken and not well maintained but overall the accomodation is ok. The restaurant is open to the public and they have live music playing loudly until 11pm and then the bar remains open to midnight with music playing - you can hear everything. There is no communication about the loud live music, so if you want to relax and get a good nights sleep - this is not the place for you. I communicated with the proprietor who, on the night was quite rude, and then overly apologetic the next day with offers of free Hammam's or that he would look after us at dinner. We did have dinner at the restaurant, and I'll start by saying the food was actually very good. The service was all over the place, white wine poured when we ordered Red, asking what we wanted to eat before we both had menus, napkins provided to us half way thought our main course. It was just a strange dinner experience, we both just wanted to eat and leave. This place has so much potential, its a great space, poorly executed. Would not recommend purely on the noise factor.

We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our stay. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and we were treated extremely well. The food and entertainment were excellent and the riad itself was absolutely beautiful. We will remember our few days at Noir D’Ivoire with absolute fondness, especially our evening chats in the bar with fellow guests. Fantastic.

Beautiful riad down a quiet alley, a haven after the hectic city. Classy and sophisticated feel with top notch service. Food was excellent, by far the best tagine I had in the 2 weeks in Morocco. Gorgeous rooftop loungers. Nice pool and spa. A relaxed bar with strong cocktails and a great ambience. Rooms were beautifully decorated and enormous comfortable bed. Slight drain smell in the jacuzzi and wobbly light switches to remind you you're in Morocco. The owner was very hospitable and welcoming, there was a jazz evening while were there with an excellent pianist.

Riad Noir d'Ivoire Is a stunning property in a great location. We were able to walk to most of the places we wanted to visit and could then escape back to the riad and unwind by the pool. The decor is fabulous - with so many little details. The staff are friendly and helpful. Overall it’s a great place to stay to explore the centre of Marrakesh.
