What guests think
At Riad Dar Massai, guests consistently praise the warm, attentive staff, the beautifully decorated, peaceful riad, clean and comfortable rooms, and tasty dinners and breakfasts, with a walkable medina location that feels quiet once inside.
Travelers highlight thoughtful service touches such as arranged transfers, luggage assistance, clear local tips, and help with logistics like SIM cards and tours. Common drawbacks include the riad being tricky to find and not car accessible, early morning noise from the mosque or a nearby rooster, occasional small or thin walled rooms, and sporadic issues like slow Wi-Fi or a dirty pool. Expect a friendly, charming base in the medina with personalized service and a calm atmosphere.

Bellissimo e intimo Riad in posizione comoda per visitare Marrakesh. Ci sono solo cinque stanze e tutto è curato nei particolari. Consigliatissimo prenotare la cena, ottima, ingredienti genuini e sapori incredibili serviti nell’ intimità del giardino comune. Fantastica anche l’esperienza dell’hamman, una vera coccola. Il personale è assolutamente eccellente, sa farti sentire a casa e non l’ospite di un hotel. Un piccolo gioiello per soggiornare a Marrakech.

The Riad is very nice. The decoration is fabulous and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. I also liked the terrace up on the top. The food and breakfast was also very good. Unfortunately, though the walls are thin, and there was a guest in the room next to me who was snoring very loudly every night, which was making it very difficult for me to sleep. I wanted to change rooms, but unfortunately, this was not possible. There is also an annoying rooster next door that starts making noise early in the morning so probably not the best place to stay if you are a light sleeper or bring ear plugs.Also important to know that if you use the hotel’s hammam , it is a 10 minute walk away and the lady who does the Massage gave me only a 30 minute massage instead of a 45 minutes.

The property was beautiful, with an inside pool and roof terrace, as well as being wonderfully decorated. It was also in an excellent location, an easy walk to jamaa el fina but in a relatively quiet part of the medina. Breakfast was simple but tasty and we had dinner there one night and it was probably the best thing we ate in Marrakech. The biggest highlight of the Riad though was undoubtedly the staff, Adam and Nordin going out of their way to make you feel special and valued every day. There was another young lady who worked there too (sorry, I never got her name) who was also very helpful and nice. Couldn't recommend staying with these guys on your next trip to Marrakech more.

Riad parfait. Une belle décoration. Très calme et très propre. Proche de la place Jemaa el fna et du palais de la bahia. Nous avons été très bien accueilli par Adam mais avons beaucoup échangé avec Nordine très soucieux de notre confort et bien être. Une belle rencontre. Merci. Nous vous recommandons ce Riad. Le petit déjeuner sur le toit terrasse le matin est TOP.

We really enjoyed our stay here, even though it started off a little confusing! We went to the address shown on our booking and ended up at their sister property, Dar Massaï Spa, instead — so there was a bit of a walk with our suitcases to the right riad. Once we got there, though, everything was lovely. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming, and the riad itself is beautifully decorated and very peaceful. The beds were really comfortable, and the breakfast each morning was excellent. It’s a little bit out of the way of the main centre, but once you get your bearings, it’s a great base for exploring Marrakesh. All in all, a great experience with wonderful hosts — just make sure you head to the right Dar Massaï when you arrive!

The service at this Riad was excellent - all due to the professional and attentive efforts of Souffian. He welcomed us with a drink in the lounge area, checked us in, moved bags to our room and throughout our stay served lovely meals, gave us good directions and engaged in friendly confirmations. I would certainly employ him in my own business - he was that good!! Thanks Souffian for your excellent service!! The Riad itself was also very nice - rooms clean and well decorated in theme. Meals were delicious!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and always willing to help with a smile. The location couldn’t have been better close to everything yet still quiet and relaxing, making it the perfect spot for both exploring and unwinding. The amenities exceeded my expectations: modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, with all the details carefully taken care of. I also really enjoyed the common areas, which had a cozy yet elegant atmosphere. What stood out the most was the people the service was consistently outstanding, making me feel truly at home. Every interaction was genuine and added to the overall charm of the place. I honestly can’t recommend this hotel enough. It’s rare to find a place where everything from location to amenities to hospitality comes together so perfectly. I will definitely be coming back!

From the moment my wife and I stepped foot into Riad Dar Massai, I knew I had chosen the perfect place for our stay in Marrakech. Immediately, Noureddine welcomed us in with open arms as if we were part of his family. He met us at our cab (that they arranged for us) to ensure we knew the exact way to the Riad, as the streets can be very confusing. We knew we were arriving late, so we arranged with them for dinner there upon arrival, which Noureddine set us up on the rooftop for an amazing first night. It was the perfect first night in such an beautiful place! Each morning, we were made a fresh, delicious breakfast, which we could eat on the rooftop, or in the main room by the pool. Both Noureddine & Adam went above and beyond to make sure we were happy, comfortable & they had plenty of recommendations for us to do in the city! It really may have been the best service we've ever received at a Hotel/Riad. That includes the fantastic Chef & Housekeeping, as all the food was top notch, and the place was spotlessly clean! I honestly can't recommend this place enough. If you're considering other places, stop. You will absolutely love your stay at the Riad Dar Massai. It was in a great, safe area as well, that only took about 5-10 minutes to get to Jemaa el-Fna and the souks! Shkran Noureddine, Adam, and the rest of the staff at Riad Dar Massai! You made our trip extremely memorable. We will most certainly be back!

Getting to the hotel can be a bit of a pain at first with luggage as the cobble streets and navigating around the locals and bikes. Once you find it the Riad is so nice inside. The staff are the kindest and nicest people I’ve ever encountered in any facility. The hotel was kept so clean! The room We had was perfect for us (definitely make sure to bring your own toiletries and maybe extra toilet paper/ wipes. They have one roll provided but it’s not as much in a roll compared to rolls in the states. We luckily had wipes so had no issues. Also remember to have a water bottle to brush your teeth. If you’re from the states- Morocco isn’t probably your first trip but just a reminder to get an international wall outlet (the two prong stick looking wall plug). The streets come alive at night! -I don’t recommend going too far off the beaten path at night. Also be aware of the children in the area they will tend to ask for money and will follow you to the hotel. Overall if we were to come back to Morocco we would stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Dar Massai. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. The Riad itself is beautifully decorated, peaceful, and full of charm, a perfect escape from the busy streets of Marrakech. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and I really appreciated the attention to detail throughout the property. Breakfast was delicious every morning, with fresh ingredients and a lovely setting to enjoy it. The location is ideal, 10 min walk to Jma el Fna but tucked away enough to feel quiet and relaxing. The team were always available to offer recommendations or help arrange anything we needed, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would happily return. Highly recommend Riad Dar Massai to anyone visiting Marrakech. Special thanks to Nourdine and Adam for the lovely service provided.

First of all, the staff is just the best. The riad itself is just as it looks in the photos. I had the room off the main room and it was quiet. I could hear the rooster and birds chirping and loved it. The bed was comfortable, I had all I needed. Wi-fi was great and they have WINE The staff wants you to feel like a family member in their home and they do just that. The riad's location is safe and easy to get to once they show you how to get there. The taxis are just a five minute walk. I would absolutely stay there again and especially as a single woman guest.

The service at this Riad was exceptional. From greeting and checking us in, checking in to make sure everything is okay and making sure breakfast is available for the time we were starting our day. They even set up something small for us on the day we were leaving at 7am. The rooms are clean, spacious, the bathrooms are great and the rooms are cleaned each day. The area is also very nice and walkable. It's beside a meat market but you'll only notice it when walking to and from the hotel. It's very easy to walk into the souks area and the square. I'd highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a place to stay in Marrakech.

Séjour absolument fantastique ! Accueil chaleureux dès notre arrivée. Le personnel a été aux petits soins pour nous à tout moment, toujours souriant et attentionné. Un immense merci a Noureddine qui n’hésitait jamais à se réveiller pour nous accueillir lorsque nous rentrions tard. La chambre était magnifique, très confortable et parfaitement entretenue. Un grand merci à toute l’équipe pour cette expérience inoubliable, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir ! Julia et Aurélie

We really enjoyed our stay here, even though it started off a little confusing! We went to the address shown on our booking and ended up at their sister property, Dar Massaï Spa, instead — so there was a bit of a walk with our suitcases to the right riad. Once we got there, though, everything was lovely. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming, and the riad itself is beautifully decorated and very peaceful. The beds were really comfortable, and the breakfast each morning was excellent. It’s a little bit out of the way of the main centre, but once you get your bearings, it’s a great base for exploring Marrakesh. All in all, a great experience with wonderful hosts — just make sure you head to the right Dar Massaï when you arrive!

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and always willing to help with a smile. The location couldn’t have been better close to everything yet still quiet and relaxing, making it the perfect spot for both exploring and unwinding. The amenities exceeded my expectations: modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, with all the details carefully taken care of. I also really enjoyed the common areas, which had a cozy yet elegant atmosphere. What stood out the most was the people the service was consistently outstanding, making me feel truly at home. Every interaction was genuine and added to the overall charm of the place. I honestly can’t recommend this hotel enough. It’s rare to find a place where everything from location to amenities to hospitality comes together so perfectly. I will definitely be coming back!

Como buen turista en Marrakech, los taxis no llegaban al Riad y te dejaban en un sitio donde te esperaban dos otres personajes de la zona para llevarte y intentar estafarte, suerte que soy más listo que todo Marruecos y ni uno pudo estafarme pero el Riad estaba tan escondido que casi sucumbo a pedir ayuda. Wifi lentito o inexistente, habitación bonita, y un trabajador para todo el hotel. Para finalizar si vais a partir de las 8 de la tarde no le deis muy fuerte al timbre de la puerta porque se pueden despertar los otros huéspedes.

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Dar Massai. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. The Riad itself is beautifully decorated, peaceful, and full of charm, a perfect escape from the busy streets of Marrakech. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and I really appreciated the attention to detail throughout the property. Breakfast was delicious every morning, with fresh ingredients and a lovely setting to enjoy it. The location is ideal, 10 min walk to Jma el Fna but tucked away enough to feel quiet and relaxing. The team were always available to offer recommendations or help arrange anything we needed, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would happily return. Highly recommend Riad Dar Massai to anyone visiting Marrakech. Special thanks to Nourdine and Adam for the lovely service provided.

Beautiful clean place. Very kind and welcoming staff. Can't say enough about them. Also special thanks to Adam who goes above and beyond to help us. We don't have local number, so he called tour operator on our behalf when we don't hear back from the tour. He also went out to convenience store to get small bills/changes in order to give us change (and this was around 11ish late at night). There was hiccup on the communication with riad regarding taxi and meal. 1.We arrived 1hr earlier than planned and informed riad about it 5-6hr in advance(through whatsapp) for pickup. No response. And we waited 45min until the taxi came (glad there's wifi in train station). It seems taxi driver informed riad that we didnt wait in the right spot thats why driver cant see us. In reality, we were at the right spot, and we can see ALL taxi ins and outs of the taxi 'station'. 2.Riad provided menu through email so we can have idea what to order for dinner when we arrive. On the arrival day, there was no menu.We just ate whatever served.Delicious food though. But it should be made clear in the beginning so guests can decide to eat out or dine in. Overall, it's still a great place to stay.

Impeccable service at the Riad. Enjoyed our stay here and they are so accommodating of any request. A bit hard to find so contact them in advance for info and exact directions but it’s a quiet and off the beaten path spot with easy access the other areas of the Medina. The calls to prayer can be heard but other than that very quiet location.

We would definitely recommend this place! The food is incredible! Breakfast was such a treat and we dined there 2 evenings and it was like having a private dinner on the rooftop terrace.

From the moment my wife and I stepped foot into Riad Dar Massai, I knew I had chosen the perfect place for our stay in Marrakech. Immediately, Noureddine welcomed us in with open arms as if we were part of his family. He met us at our cab (that they arranged for us) to ensure we knew the exact way to the Riad, as the streets can be very confusing. We knew we were arriving late, so we arranged with them for dinner there upon arrival, which Noureddine set us up on the rooftop for an amazing first night. It was the perfect first night in such an beautiful place! Each morning, we were made a fresh, delicious breakfast, which we could eat on the rooftop, or in the main room by the pool. Both Noureddine & Adam went above and beyond to make sure we were happy, comfortable & they had plenty of recommendations for us to do in the city! It really may have been the best service we've ever received at a Hotel/Riad. That includes the fantastic Chef & Housekeeping, as all the food was top notch, and the place was spotlessly clean! I honestly can't recommend this place enough. If you're considering other places, stop. You will absolutely love your stay at the Riad Dar Massai. It was in a great, safe area as well, that only took about 5-10 minutes to get to Jemaa el-Fna and the souks! Shkran Noureddine, Adam, and the rest of the staff at Riad Dar Massai! You made our trip extremely memorable. We will most certainly be back!

Location
Within the medina/Kasbah and walkable to major sights (around 10–15 minutes to Jemaa el-Fna), yet generally quiet once inside. First-time arrival can be tricky, taxis stop a few minutes away, and early calls to prayer or nearby roosters can be heard.

Le Ryad était super dans l’ensemble. Magnifique et typique. Le personnel est au top aussi! L’établissement est un peu loin de la place Jeena El Fna (15 min à pied) et il y a une mosquée jusqu’à côté donc les appels à la prières sont forts au petit matin (réveil à 4h selon l’arrivé du soleil).

Al di là dalla struttura, che è molto molto bella, pulita e ben arredata, il vero punto forte di questo riad è il personale, in particolare Nadin, che fin da subito è stato estremamente disponibile con noi. Basta chiedere a lui, per tutto: cosa visitare, quali attività fare, in che negozi comprare, eventuali prezzi per non farsi fregare. Anche la posizione è ottima: 10 minuti a piedi dalla piazza principale, 2 minuti da Palazzo El Badi e 4 da Palazzo Bahia e soprattutto vicina alle strade, considerando che la Medina è praticamente inaccessibile in auto. Ci siamo fidati della valutazione di Expedia e le aspettative sono state completamente soddisfatte. Assolutamente consigliato.

La struttura è nel cuore della Kasbah e dista non più di 15' a piedi dalla Medina. La camera e il bagno sono abbastanza spaziosi, la colazione è espressa e abbondante, ogni giorno con qualcosa di diverso, ma la cosa migliore è senza dubbio Nordine, sempre presente, gentile e disponibile.

Bellissimo e intimo Riad in posizione comoda per visitare Marrakesh. Ci sono solo cinque stanze e tutto è curato nei particolari. Consigliatissimo prenotare la cena, ottima, ingredienti genuini e sapori incredibili serviti nell’ intimità del giardino comune. Fantastica anche l’esperienza dell’hamman, una vera coccola. Il personale è assolutamente eccellente, sa farti sentire a casa e non l’ospite di un hotel. Un piccolo gioiello per soggiornare a Marrakech.

The Riad is very nice. The decoration is fabulous and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. I also liked the terrace up on the top. The food and breakfast was also very good. Unfortunately, though the walls are thin, and there was a guest in the room next to me who was snoring very loudly every night, which was making it very difficult for me to sleep. I wanted to change rooms, but unfortunately, this was not possible. There is also an annoying rooster next door that starts making noise early in the morning so probably not the best place to stay if you are a light sleeper or bring ear plugs.Also important to know that if you use the hotel’s hammam , it is a 10 minute walk away and the lady who does the Massage gave me only a 30 minute massage instead of a 45 minutes. After complaining, I got an extra 15 minutes so if you do book the service, just keep an eye on the time.
The Riad is very nice. The decoration is fabulous and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. I also liked the terrace up on the top. The food and breakfast was also very good.

The property was beautiful, with an inside pool and roof terrace, as well as being wonderfully decorated. It was also in an excellent location, an easy walk to jamaa el fina but in a relatively quiet part of the medina. Breakfast was simple but tasty and we had dinner there one night and it was probably the best thing we ate in Marrakech. The biggest highlight of the Riad though was undoubtedly the staff, Adam and Nordin going out of their way to make you feel special and valued every day. There was another young lady who worked there too (sorry, I never got her name) who was also very helpful and nice. Couldn't recommend staying with these guys on your next trip to Marrakech more.

La struttura è nel cuore della Kasbah e dista non più di 15' a piedi dalla Medina. La camera e il bagno sono abbastanza spaziosi, la colazione è espressa e abbondante, ogni giorno con qualcosa di diverso, ma la cosa migliore è senza dubbio Nordine, sempre presente, gentile e disponibile.

The staff was incredible, the mattress could use a change up. Quite possibly the best coffee we have had at any of our Riad's. A great experience overall.

We felt like family when staying here! The staff is incredibly helpful, hospitable and kind! Everyone went out of their way to make sure we had the best experience in Marrakech! We would definitely recommend this place! The food is incredible! Breakfast was such a treat and we dined there 2 evenings and it was like having a private dinner on the rooftop terrace.

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Dar Massai. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. The Riad itself is beautifully decorated, peaceful, and full of charm, a perfect escape from the busy streets of Marrakech. My room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and I really appreciated the attention to detail throughout the property. Breakfast was delicious every morning, with fresh ingredients and a lovely setting to enjoy it. The location is ideal, 10 min walk to Jma el Fna but tucked away enough to feel quiet and relaxing. The team were always available to offer recommendations or help arrange anything we needed, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would happily return. Highly recommend Riad Dar Massai to anyone visiting Marrakech. Special thanks to Nourdine and Adam for the lovely service provided.

Calm, quiet riad. Cute little pool. Breakfast nice but limited protein eg egg. Other food cost high compared to surrounds. Hard to find and.to come and go. A little more hidden than some riads in Medina. Very nice rooms. Staff were great!

It's quiet, comfortable and relaxing once you are inside the riad, and the staff is very helpful. If you are arriving by cab, you will most likely be dropped off near the tower of Kasbah Mosque, which is about as close as you can get by car. From there it's about a 5 minutes' walk. A first-time visitor will find it quite challenging, or even impossible, to find their way to the riad; the best option is to pre-arrange with the riad so one of their staff will meet you where you get dropped off and escort you to the place. Or better still, arrange with the riad for pickup at the airport so that the driver is also aware of the end to end logistics and can contact the riad on your behalf if there is any confusion. You will pass through a crowded, chaotic marketplace and some narrow alleys, and even an opening cut into (what seems like) an old city wall, to get to the riad. If you are looking for a quiet, clean and refined neighborhood for your stay in Marrakech then this is not for you. If you like to be right in the middle of a commercial + residential neighborhood in the old city and stay among the local residents, then you are in the right place. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and we never felt unsafe or harassed. A big plus is that you can walk to many of the top sights in the old city from there, and other common attractions are a reasonable cab ride away. Be prepared to negotiate down the cab fare, or you will be overcharged.
