Rooms are generally compact, with strong Wi‑Fi, and some guests noted noise within the riad or limited in‑room amenities like TVs. There were a few maintenance or comfort issues reported, such as hard beds, occasional air‑conditioning or hot‑water problems, and breakfast timing inconsistencies. Expect a welcoming, good‑value base with simple comforts and easy walks to major sights.

This hotel was the best place I stayed on my 6 nights in Morocco. Lovely staff, great location for visiting the Medina and amazing food. Upon my arrival I was greeted by reception and given biscuits/small cakes and mint tea, the Aziz then gave me a map of Marrakech and told me all the great places in the Medina to visit and eat for the last night of my stay in Morocco (and only night in the Medina) which really helped make the most of my time. The facilities are fairly basic (such as no pool) but the quality is great and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was great (best of my stay in Morocco) and eating on the rooftop was pleasant. And then the airport transfer was great with being walked to the meeting point. I’ve never felt so compelled to write a detailed review before, but this hotel was perfect - especially for the great price. If I visit Morocco again, I would definitely rebook here and stay for longer.

The Riad was beautiful and a great base for our city break. One road to the main square and all other attractions within the medina were 15 mins walk away. The staff were super friendly and helpful and we even met the owner on his weekly visit to the Riad who again was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was traditional Moroccan food and was very good, taste and portions were perfect. I know it’s important to some so will also mention that the WIFI worked perfectly for our whole visit as well. Roof top terrace had plenty of seating and was a great place to watch sunset and sunrise. Will 100% stay here again when we visit the city in the future. Thanks again to the staff for a wonderful experience

Overall it's an absolute gem of a place. Quiet location, lovely friendly staff and a great welcome with mint tea and a map. It is a 16 minute walk minimum from the Jemaa el-Fna square and therefore other main attractions, so bear this in mind if you'd rather be more central! I paid the €15 each way to and from the airport for a transfer and I'd recommend this because it would be hard to find otherwise! Breakfast is 7-10am each day and is a lovely selection of 4ish pastries, orange juice and tea or coffee. I would say the only issue I had was that I came down for breakfast at half 7 one morning as I had to leave just before 8 for an excursion. Noone was around and noone turned up until 6 minutes before I had to leave! So it was very rushed! Also for the airport I left at 07:10 and because the women who cook breakfast weren't there yet, I just had some orange juice and a bit of fruit and got some breakfast at the airport at inflated prices! So maybe I should have given them notice, but also if I've been told breakfast starts at 7am, that's what I expect. The rooms are simple but spotless and have aircon (an essential in summer), a good supply of hot water and clean towels. The only thing it's missing is a hot tub or some sort of pool you can actually get in - I really missed this and noticed that speaking to other travellers who had these, an afternoon dip would have been lovely!

This is a beautiful Riad with a great terrace with a view if you climb up one extra flight. It’s close to a Medina entrance so not too far of a walk from transportation. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I was coming from a desert tour and Abdelaziz met me at my van at the gate to walk me to the riad. Upon arrival I was given a map and Abdelaziz went through some major attractions and how to get there. Later Yakoub made sure I had heard about how to get around and arranged for their driver to take me to the airport on my last morning. If you request earlier in the day they will serve dinner on the terrace. I did this my last night. The chicken tagine was delicious. I stayed 3 nights. The room was comfortable - small, but big enough for me. It was generally quiet, but the setup of a Riad means you often can hear people talking in the courtyard or when they come in. There was a rooster who called nearby early in the morning, but friends who stayed on the opposite side of the Medina said the same. Breakfast is served 8-10 am. The riad is on a small street just two quick turns off the main market street, so there’s lots going on nearby. I walked everywhere I went for my 3 nights - mostly in the Medina but also to the jardin majorelle. I’d definitely recommend this if you are looking for a Riad.

The hotel was great, breakfast was very delicious, nice hot water in the bathroom. The knob to turn on the water in the sink needs to be fixed, it kept moving sideways. Also, the bed could be a little softer. Aziz was absolutely amazing!!! Very nice, friendly and a great personality. Definitely would visit again because of him and the other man that helped serve our breakfast. Very efficient and courteous. The place was very cozy and close to everything. My favorite part was the roof top lounge . Thank you Aziz and everyone for a great stay!

Clean room. Attentive staff. Was disappointed because they advertised that they had a bar. This was not the case. When we arrived, we inquired about wine and they informed us that they never restocked after Ramadan. I respect religious beliefs, however, guests such as ourselves were disappointed. And they should have had alcoholic beverages available at the time of our stay.

Everyone at Riad Mboja was so friendly and helpful. They helped us with things to do (and not to do). Any need we had was immediately handled. The Riad was super clean and very well maintained. The room and bathroom really did look just as fantastic as the pictures. Breakfast was delicious, filling, and fresh. The whole place had a calmness that always made us smile. The roof had a nice view and was refreshing cool at night. The internet was the very fast and we never had issues with Zoom calls or other online needs. We really appreciated the service we got from Imane, Abdo and Saad. Saad treating us like royalty. He is amazing and took care of every detail at breakfast and at dinner. Also, thank you to Fawzi (the owner) for welcoming us at the start of our stay and giving us so much useful information. We really recommend staying at Riad Mboja. If the they have availably you should stay there even if it is more expensive than other Riads - you will not regret spending the little bit more. It is so worth it.

Had a lovely three nights staying here - the Riad is in an excellent location, we didn’t get any taxis during our stay because it is walking distance to all of the main sites. We also used the shuttle transport from the Riad which was very convenient! The terrace is also a lovely place to relax after a long day, and has gorgeous views of the city. All of the staff were very nice and made our stay enjoyable, especially Aziz! He even woke up earlier to provide us with breakfast since we had a flight before the normal breakfast time. Will definitely be staying here again!

A lovely riad that accepted our reservation on extremely short notice after having to leave our previous 'hotel' (Le Relais De Marrakech) due to unsatisfactory standards. In contrast, Riad Mboja had welcoming staff that went above and beyond to accomodate us, an extremely clean room/bathroom, free breakfast every morning, and a lovely terrace to enjoy. Extremely happy to have stayed here. The only 'negatives' that may be important to know: - The room was quite small. It was managable for us but may not be suitable if you need something more spacious. - Sound is transmitted quite easily around the building so may not be well-suited for light sleepers - It's located on quite a busy street, however, we didn't have any problems with noise from outside during our stay. Overall 10/10 and would definitely recommend.

Overall it's an absolute gem of a place. Quiet location, lovely friendly staff and a great welcome with mint tea and a map. It is a 16 minute walk minimum from the Jemaa el-Fna square and therefore other main attractions, so bear this in mind if you'd rather be more central! I paid the €15 each way to and from the airport for a transfer and I'd recommend this because it would be hard to find otherwise! Breakfast is 7-10am each day and is a lovely selection of 4ish pastries, orange juice and tea or coffee. I would say the only issue I had was that I came down for breakfast at half 7 one morning as I had to leave just before 8 for an excursion. Noone was around and noone turned up until 6 minutes before I had to leave! So it was very rushed! Also for the airport I left at 07:10 and because the women who cook breakfast weren't there yet, I just had some orange juice and a bit of fruit and got some breakfast at the airport at inflated prices! So maybe I should have given them notice, but also if I've been told breakfast starts at 7am, that's what I expect. The rooms are simple but spotless and have aircon (an essential in summer), a good supply of hot water and clean towels. The only thing it's missing is a hot tub or some sort of pool you can actually get in - I really missed this and noticed that speaking to other travellers who had these, an afternoon dip would have been lovely!

The riad is very well kept and clean, the area is also very practical when visiting all there is to see in Marrakech, plus it's not as touristic as other areas of the city so you get to see locals going about their activities and get an insight into their daily life. What makes this riad standout from the many others is the level of service. The staff were really helpful and welcoming. We had the most contact with Aziz, who always had a smile on his face and answered any questions we had, a real asset to the property.

Rooms were nice and quiet, right in the Medina. There was no water pressure, no hot water and air flow via rooms unit was not good.

There wasn't a TV in the room. The air conditioner was broken and they were going to make us wait until the next day to give us another room until my husband went back and asked very nicely for a new room now because the heat was unbearable. It was over 100 degrees. They gave us a new room with a working ac and a TV. It was an upgrade. After that the stay was pleasant.

Overall it's an absolute gem of a place. Quiet location, lovely friendly staff and a great welcome with mint tea and a map. It is a 16 minute walk minimum from the Jemaa el-Fna square and therefore other main attractions, so bear this in mind if you'd rather be more central! I paid the €15 each way to and from the airport for a transfer and I'd recommend this because it would be hard to find otherwise! Breakfast is 7-10am each day and is a lovely selection of 4ish pastries, orange juice and tea or coffee. I would say the only issue I had was that I came down for breakfast at half 7 one morning as I had to leave just before 8 for an excursion. Noone was around and noone turned up until 6 minutes before I had to leave! So it was very rushed! Also for the airport I left at 07:10 and because the women who cook breakfast weren't there yet, I just had some orange juice and a bit of fruit and got some breakfast at the airport at inflated prices! So maybe I should have given them notice, but also if I've been told breakfast starts at 7am, that's what I expect. The rooms are simple but spotless and have aircon (an essential in summer), a good supply of hot water and clean towels. The only thing it's missing is a hot tub or some sort of pool you can actually get in - I really missed this and noticed that speaking to other travellers who had these, an afternoon dip would have been lovely!

Everyone at Riad Mboja was so friendly and helpful. They helped us with things to do (and not to do). Any need we had was immediately handled. The Riad was super clean and very well maintained. The room and bathroom really did look just as fantastic as the pictures. Breakfast was delicious, filling, and fresh. The whole place had a calmness that always made us smile. The roof had a nice view and was refreshing cool at night. The internet was the very fast and we never had issues with Zoom calls or other online needs. We really appreciated the service we got from Imane, Abdo and Saad. Saad treating us like royalty. He is amazing and took care of every detail at breakfast and at dinner. Also, thank you to Fawzi (the owner) for welcoming us at the start of our stay and giving us so much useful information. We really recommend staying at Riad Mboja. If the they have availably you should stay there even if it is more expensive than other Riads - you will not regret spending the little bit more. It is so worth it.

The Riad was beautiful and a great base for our city break. One road to the main square and all other attractions within the medina were 15 mins walk away. The staff were super friendly and helpful and we even met the owner on his weekly visit to the Riad who again was friendly and helpful. The breakfast was traditional Moroccan food and was very good, taste and portions were perfect. I know it’s important to some so will also mention that the WIFI worked perfectly for our whole visit as well. Roof top terrace had plenty of seating and was a great place to watch sunset and sunrise. Will 100% stay here again when we visit the city in the future. Thanks again to the staff for a wonderful experience

This is a beautiful Riad with a great terrace with a view if you climb up one extra flight. It’s close to a Medina entrance so not too far of a walk from transportation. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I was coming from a desert tour and Abdelaziz met me at my van at the gate to walk me to the riad. Upon arrival I was given a map and Abdelaziz went through some major attractions and how to get there. Later Yakoub made sure I had heard about how to get around and arranged for their driver to take me to the airport on my last morning. If you request earlier in the day they will serve dinner on the terrace. I did this my last night. The chicken tagine was delicious. I stayed 3 nights. The room was comfortable - small, but big enough for me. It was generally quiet, but the setup of a Riad means you often can hear people talking in the courtyard or when they come in. There was a rooster who called nearby early in the morning, but friends who stayed on the opposite side of the Medina said the same. Breakfast is served 8-10 am. The riad is on a small street just two quick turns off the main market street, so there’s lots going on nearby. I walked everywhere I went for my 3 nights - mostly in the Medina but also to the jardin majorelle. I’d definitely recommend this if you are looking for a Riad.

The hotel was great, breakfast was very delicious, nice hot water in the bathroom. The knob to turn on the water in the sink needs to be fixed, it kept moving sideways. Also, the bed could be a little softer. Aziz was absolutely amazing!!! Very nice, friendly and a great personality. Definitely would visit again because of him and the other man that helped serve our breakfast. Very efficient and courteous. The place was very cozy and close to everything. My favorite part was the roof top lounge . Thank you Aziz and everyone for a great stay!

Within the Medina and generally quiet, it’s about a 15–25 minute walk to Jemaa el-Fna and major sights. Some guests found it less central or hard to find down a small alley, but overall walkable.

This hotel was the best place I stayed on my 6 nights in Morocco. Lovely staff, great location for visiting the Medina and amazing food. Upon my arrival I was greeted by reception and given biscuits/small cakes and mint tea, the Aziz then gave me a map of Marrakech and told me all the great places in the Medina to visit and eat for the last night of my stay in Morocco (and only night in the Medina) which really helped make the most of my time. The facilities are fairly basic (such as no pool) but the quality is great and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was great (best of my stay in Morocco) and eating on the rooftop was pleasant. And then the airport transfer was great with being walked to the meeting point. I’ve never felt so compelled to write a detailed review before, but this hotel was perfect - especially for the great price. If I visit Morocco again, I would definitely rebook here and stay for longer.

Overall it's an absolute gem of a place. Quiet location, lovely friendly staff and a great welcome with mint tea and a map. It is a 16 minute walk minimum from the Jemaa el-Fna square and therefore other main attractions, so bear this in mind if you'd rather be more central! I paid the €15 each way to and from the airport for a transfer and I'd recommend this because it would be hard to find otherwise! Breakfast is 7-10am each day and is a lovely selection of 4ish pastries, orange juice and tea or coffee. I would say the only issue I had was that I came down for breakfast at half 7 one morning as I had to leave just before 8 for an excursion. Noone was around and noone turned up until 6 minutes before I had to leave! So it was very rushed! Also for the airport I left at 07:10 and because the women who cook breakfast weren't there yet, I just had some orange juice and a bit of fruit and got some breakfast at the airport at inflated prices! So maybe I should have given them notice, but also if I've been told breakfast starts at 7am, that's what I expect. The rooms are simple but spotless and have aircon (an essential in summer), a good supply of hot water and clean towels. The only thing it's missing is a hot tub or some sort of pool you can actually get in - I really missed this and noticed that speaking to other travellers who had these, an afternoon dip would have been lovely!

Had a lovely three nights staying here - the Riad is in an excellent location, we didn’t get any taxis during our stay because it is walking distance to all of the main sites. We also used the shuttle transport from the Riad which was very convenient! The terrace is also a lovely place to relax after a long day, and has gorgeous views of the city. All of the staff were very nice and made our stay enjoyable, especially Aziz! He even woke up earlier to provide us with breakfast since we had a flight before the normal breakfast time. Will definitely be staying here again!

Overall it's an absolute gem of a place. Quiet location, lovely friendly staff and a great welcome with mint tea and a map. It is a 16 minute walk minimum from the Jemaa el-Fna square and therefore other main attractions, so bear this in mind if you'd rather be more central! I paid the €15 each way to and from the airport for a transfer and I'd recommend this because it would be hard to find otherwise! Breakfast is 7-10am each day and is a lovely selection of 4ish pastries, orange juice and tea or coffee. I would say the only issue I had was that I came down for breakfast at half 7 one morning as I had to leave just before 8 for an excursion. Noone was around and noone turned up until 6 minutes before I had to leave! So it was very rushed! Also for the airport I left at 07:10 and because the women who cook breakfast weren't there yet, I just had some orange juice and a bit of fruit and got some breakfast at the airport at inflated prices! So maybe I should have given them notice, but also if I've been told breakfast starts at 7am, that's what I expect. The rooms are simple but spotless and have aircon (an essential in summer), a good supply of hot water and clean towels. The only thing it's missing is a hot tub or some sort of pool you can actually get in - I really missed this and noticed that speaking to other travellers who had these, an afternoon dip would have been lovely!

This is a beautiful Riad with a great terrace with a view if you climb up one extra flight. It’s close to a Medina entrance so not too far of a walk from transportation. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I was coming from a desert tour and Abdelaziz met me at my van at the gate to walk me to the riad. Upon arrival I was given a map and Abdelaziz went through some major attractions and how to get there. Later Yakoub made sure I had heard about how to get around and arranged for their driver to take me to the airport on my last morning. If you request earlier in the day they will serve dinner on the terrace. I did this my last night. The chicken tagine was delicious. I stayed 3 nights. The room was comfortable - small, but big enough for me. It was generally quiet, but the setup of a Riad means you often can hear people talking in the courtyard or when they come in. There was a rooster who called nearby early in the morning, but friends who stayed on the opposite side of the Medina said the same. Breakfast is served 8-10 am. The riad is on a small street just two quick turns off the main market street, so there’s lots going on nearby. I walked everywhere I went for my 3 nights - mostly in the Medina but also to the jardin majorelle. I’d definitely recommend this if you are looking for a Riad.

The hotel was great, breakfast was very delicious, nice hot water in the bathroom. The knob to turn on the water in the sink needs to be fixed, it kept moving sideways. Also, the bed could be a little softer. Aziz was absolutely amazing!!! Very nice, friendly and a great personality. Definitely would visit again because of him and the other man that helped serve our breakfast. Very efficient and courteous. The place was very cozy and close to everything. My favorite part was the roof top lounge . Thank you Aziz and everyone for a great stay!

Very convenient location. Only 3 mins walk from the gate. So most excursion pick ups were easy. Rooms were nice, airconditioned, clean, big washroom. Staff were friendly and always available. Breakfast was typical Moroccan but having a meal included helped save cost.
