Riad Mariana

Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Bon accueil du personnel, très disponible, chambre spacieuses et confortables. A 10 minutes des palais et souks. Riad très calme avec une belle terrasse pour se reposer ou prendre son petit déjeuner.

Very nice, quiet Riad located next to a safe commercial area. Not far from Jemaa El Fna square (aprox 10 minutes walking distance) and easy to find. A warm welcome from Abdou and Fatima, they were always ready to help and to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Abdou speaks english so no problem in communicating. The rooms are cozy, spacious (the 2 suites on the first floor are a bit bigger) with aircon and heating, and very very clean. Breakfast is OK. They offer dinner at the Riad and also can book excursions if you want. We arranged the pick up from the airport with them, it was perfect and they took us door to door. WIFI should improve, it works, but the signal is weak. Overall a good place to stay and I'd recommend it to family and friends.

Lovely oasis close to the big market square in the heart of the Medina! We were able to walk to most of the tourist spots. Given the location, was completely surprised how quiet it was inside the Riad. We had no issues getting there via taxi. Phillipe was a welcoming host, and the two ladies who work there are kind and take really good care of the guests. The room was romantic and comfortable. We had hot water and good wifi. Breakfast is light, continental fare. Only complaint is that access to the Riad is via ringing a bell to be let in. We returned late one evening to find no one there to answer the door. We had to wait over 30 minutes for someone to arrive to let us in after finding wifi and getting a hold of Phillipe via email. Also, there is no tv in the room; one is available in a common area room. Otherwise, very happy with our stay and recommend it for a quiet place to stay in the middle of everything in Marakech.

Riad Mariana is a place of tranquillity after the constant hassle of the square. Easy to access all areas without getting too lost. Beds are very comfortable, air conditioning brilliant and roof terrace so peaceful. Was lovely to have a nice light breakfast on the roof each morning with bread, yoghurt, fresh orange juice and home made jam. Staff are great, you step out of your room and they appear as if by magic to see if you need anything. Fatima even walked along to the end of the street, insisting on carrying a bag, and waited with us till the taxi they had booked for us arrived. Highly recommended.

We really liked this place. It was with in walking distant of shopping and good restaurants and just mingling with the people. We definitely want to go back.
