This riad spreads a very warm and cosy vibe, which makes you feel at home right away. Lots of thoughtful touches and details that will help you unwind after a long day of action in the medina. You could easily spend an entire day without stepping outside. I am also thankful for the owners and staff (particularly Samir) who helped me arrange the transport from the airport/to the station and prepared an early breakfast for me, so I could go on tour well nourished.

No negative things, but some hints that future travelers might find helpful: - I think it is essential to book a transport from the airport or at least arrange a pickup from the last possible road that cars can access. The alley leading to the riad is quite hidden and dark and not very inviting at first. I would have probably hardly found it on my own. - Keep distance between your dark clothes and the white walls! - As in every riad, walls and windows are thin and all rooms are facing the courtyard. It is therefore important to move and talk with more consciousness than back home to respect each others privacy. Some of my fellow guests weren't aware of that.

Our second stay at Riad Dar Kleta was just as wonderful as the first—if not even better. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home, welcomed warmly by Samir, who made sure everything was perfect from the start. The hospitality here is truly special, with Françoise and Julien creating a space that feels both authentic and incredibly relaxing. The highlight of the riad is undoubtedly the inner courtyard, a lush, peaceful oasis filled with life. The presence of the cats, turtles, and birds makes the atmosphere even more charming, offering a serene escape from the bustling streets of Marrakesh. Whether enjoying a quiet breakfast or simply unwinding with a mint tea, the courtyard is the perfect place to soak in the beauty of the riad. Returning to Riad Dar Kleta felt like visiting old friends, and we wouldn’t hesitate to come back again. If you’re looking for a peaceful, authentic, and welcoming place to stay in Marrakesh, this riad is an absolute gem.

Amazing stay. The owner, Samir greeted us at the taxi drop off area (large vehicles cannot make it fully to the Riad) to guide us to the Riad. We were treated as family and were welcomed. He gave us important details and a map of key tourist attractions and many tips to help travellers stay safe and comfortable. He also helped provide us with cheap taxis and other services to help us. The Riad itself is absolutely stunning and the breakfast is great. The chefs are so sweet and helpful. The riad has many areas on the terrace for relaxing. Our flight was in the late evening and my partner and I had a few hours to kill after checkout. Samir and his staff provided us with a room to store luggage and allowed us to stay past checkout until it was time to depart. Samir and his staff treated us like family. This definitely made our holiday special.

We loved everything! Communication with the property was extremely fast, Samir helped us arrange a cab from the airport very last minute. The Riad is STUNNING! The pictures don't do justice to how pretty it is. I love interior design and every little corner of the riad was so thoughtfully designed. There are many different areas and terraces to chill. The room was good size and very clean. We stayed two nights and our room was cleaned and fresh towels were brought to the room (in other 3 places I stayed in Moroccco this didn't happen). The location is tricky to get to at the beginning but once you understand it is in a great location, within walking distance to pretty much everywhere. Our flight left at 8 am, and witouth even asking Samir offered to prepared our breakfast at 6:30 am! We were not even thinking that was possible, but Samir prepared breakfast and helped us organized a taxi to get to the airport on time. Breakfast was amazing and the lady preparing (forgot her name!) was so kind and helpful. We enjoyed our stay a lot! And whenever we go back to Marrakesh we would be definitely staying at Riad Dar Kleta.

Not a big issue but the doors of the bathroom are "closet like" so not a lot of privacy if that's an issue for the guests. However I saw the same style of doors in another hotel in Morocco, so might be something common.

The property was absolutely stunning a little oasis hidden away in the heart of Marrakesh. The absolute beauty and attention to detail that has went in to this riad is impeccable. Aside the beauty of the property the staff and also julien and Francisco literally bent over backwards to make sure we had the most amazing stay you can tell they really are passionate about what they do and that this is their dream . They made sure from start to finish that everything went smoothly for us . Offering advice and help when we needed it and were always available for us , organising transfers , breakfast etc . The food was perfect with everything made fresh in house down to the jams in the morning . You can’t fault anything . The staff that work their the ladies and the gentleman were all so friendly I can’t thank every single one of them enough . Oh and let’s not forget the lovely kind natured cats and tortoises that were the cherry on top of the cupcake for our stay ecspecially our 5 year old son . Thank you so much

Impossible to find a fault

We had a wonderful stay here! The location is great, very quiet and peaceful, a short walk to the main attractions in the Medina. The place is beautifully decorated, very clean, and comfortable. We had a room at the top with various terraces to choose from to sit and relax with the friendly cats. The peaceful courtyard and cozy spots around the property made it a perfect retreat. The staff were amazing—ready to help with anything we needed. The breakfasts were served by two very nice ladies and were delicious, with fresh crepes, omelets and cheese, bread, fruit, yoghurt, coffee and mint tea. Samir, the manager, was exceptional! He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience, made us feel truly at home. He was always there to help with everything, for example arranging our pick-up for the trip to the desert and gave us very useful tips (offline map, what to visit, even tactics how to bargain at the souk :-). On the day we were leaving, he even prepared us a special early breakfast before our journey and walked us to the taxi pick-up point.

Everything was perfect, but the riad is very difficult to find. So be careful with local guys eager to show you the way from the taxi and then demand 10 Euros for the short walk!

Staying here makes our first time in Marrakech the best experience ever. Samir really took care of everything, from prior to the travel, getting to the riad, providing all the local tips. All the staffs were so friendly, the homemade dinner and breakfast were delicious. We spent lots of time just relaxing at the riads as it truly felt like home. The location is superb as it's only short walk distance to the vibrant spots, but when you're back, it's quiet like a wonderful oasis. We feel super lucky and grateful we got booking here!

As with most Riads in the Medina, you don't know what to expect from the outside. Dar Kleta will not disappoint. The common area around the pool is relaxing and the chirping birds complete the picture. The breakfast each morning was plentiful. Samir greeted us and gave us excellent rooftop dining options in the Medina. All were a 8 minute walk, if we hadn't stopped to purchase items along the way. Rooms were quiet. We were on the ground floor, but heard nothing all night. The rooftop terraces at Dar Kleta are amazing, spacious and private (which is hard to believe since it's in the middle of the Medina). Samir made sure our stay was enjoyable and stress free from start to finish, which included securing us a taxi at 3:00am for an early morning flight. He was awake to make sure we made it out on time!

I can't think of a thing that I did not like about our stay at Dar Kleta.

We have stayed in many places during our travels, but we’ve never encountered anyone like Samiir at Riad Dar Kleta. He truly made our stay unforgettable. Samiir was there for everything we needed, going above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. Whether it was verifying our arrival, helping us when we got lost, or offering recommendations on what to do, see, and be cautious of, he was always just a call away. He even braved the rain to help us when we needed something! Having a local like Samiir made us feel incredibly comfortable, knowing we could count on him for anything. The breakfast, prepared by Rabia and Fatima, was lovely. Each morning started with a delicious spread, so much so that we could hardly finish it all. The care they put into the food and the cleanliness of our room was incredible. The riad itself was beautiful, spotlessly clean, and located in the perfect spot for exploring Marrakech. We can’t recommend Riad Dar Kleta enough. The combination of its beauty, ideal location, and the outstanding service from the staff, especially Samiir, made this a trip we will never forget.

The property is straight out of a movie set - every little detail is immaculately curated and everything is spotlessly clean, scented and ordered beautifully. The team is amazing, tea and breakfast are absolutely delicious and all corners to chill and sunbathe benefit with the company of two local resident cats 😍 Samir was the best host ever, organised a whole birthday surprise for my boyfriend, gifted us amazing argan oil, gave us the best tips and recommendations on hammam, eating and shopping spots. Choukran! We will be back to Dar Kleta for sure and will recommend to anyone that plans a visit to Marrakech. This is the place, don’t look any further!
