We arranged for a taxi to take us to the Riad and it was perfect . We were met from the taxi and given a quick location chat. The staff were brilliant as very friendly and always available. It was great we had contact always through WhatsApp . The room was not luxurious but we knew it wouldn’t be . It was clean and cosy . It had all we needed. The location is perfect as only a minutes walk from the centre but that is enough to make sure it’s quiet . Breakfast was plentiful and in a lovely setting on the roof terrace. We would stay again .

Very good located in Marrakesh. (Some days later, I stayed close to the Madrasa Ben Yussuf too, but this area around Riad Hayat was better.) I liked the breakfast on the roof terrace. The bed was comfortable. The transfer from the airport organised by the riad was great. I am grateful that the driver waited for me for more than one hour. I have already travelled o lot, but I can tell that the receptionist is one of the best I have ever met.

In the single room, the bathroom is not so convenient, small, but this is visible in the pictures.

What a stay! Marrakesh is worth the experience alone, but this riad made it really special for me and my wife. It’s a little riad, placed close to the marketplace, 5 minutes walk from the drop-off. Very clean rooms. Big enough for two with a lot of luggage. We really enjoyed having breakfast on the terrasse. Khalid and Akub took very good care of us! We gained a lot of knowledge about the culture in Marrakesh and Maroc itself. Thank you for the great recommendations all around the city and for all the time we talked about life. If anybody needs something, you are the guys they can talk to! We are wishing you all the best!

What a beautiful Riad, with very welcoming & friendly staff : Khalid and Amine💙 was so nice at everything, right in the heart of the Medina. Excellent location, a tranquil,calm and relaxing oasis amongst the excitement of Marrakesh.

The staff was very kind and helpful: Ayoub and Khalid, thank you so much for all your help and for taking care of us by booking some of our visits (desert and hammam), taxis, accompanying us to some places, buying a fan for our room! WiFi was working well, breakfast was delicious and abundant! The riad is tiny and lovely and very close to jamâa el Fna square.

We did not notice while booking that our room was without aircon and so we asked for a fan. Just as advice: maybe all rooms should be equipped with Aircon in future but as said Ajoub looked for a solution!

We really liked the riad overall.It has great location, pretty designed rooms and rooftop for breakfast. The stuff is awesome,both guys that work there are polite and helpful.

The sheets in other room were dirty.We asked manager to have other sheets, so he did. Also, we did not have toilet brush, so had to ask for that,as well.Unfortunately, we did not get the brush, since the manager told us that the room will be cleaned when we are absent. Give people toilet brush, we want to clean our own excrements!

I traveled to Marrakech on short notice to attend the wedding of a former college friend who originally comes from Morocco and now lives in Germany. About the hotel: The Riyad Hayad Hotel is very centrally located in Marrakech, just a short walk from Djemaa el Fna. The hotel is very affordable, so one cannot expect everything to be furnished with high-end furniture. From my perspective, it is intended as a place to sleep, and it fulfills this purpose perfectly. WiFi is also available, and a small breakfast is included. My experience: I booked for just one night and had to check out by 12:00 noon. My plan was to go to my friend's wedding afterward. Unexpectedly, my former college friend did not respond to my message at 8:00 AM in a timely manner. He only replied at 7:00 PM, leaving me lost in Marrakech between 12:00 and 7:00 PM. Thanks to the hotel staff, Khalid and Ayoub, I was allowed to leave my belongings in the reception area and use the hotel's toilets and WiFi in between my walks outside. That day, I was very emotional, and the two receptionists were there for me and listened to me. Because of their kindness and support, this hotel definitely deserves 5 stars. Best regards, Arash from Germany

The guys that work here are excellent! Super friendly and really responsive in answering any questions we had. Breakfast was also plentiful. Bread, honey, cheese, eggs, jam and peanut butter. Room was clean and the riad is spacious. When we needed random things like a cup, the guys were really sweet in providing these things for us. They were also so so helpful answering any questions we had including public transport to our next destination etc. They whatsapped me the day of my arrival to know when I was coming and helped answer questions about how to get there. The location is super super central because you're seconds away from the square so you can't complain :)

Walls are thin so expect to hear noises in the night. We were tired every night so it didn't prevent us from a sound sleep but it's still easy to hear everything. The keys didn't lock except after tugging and yanking the room keys but it didn't really bother me much. I tried to do a zoom video meeting through their wifi and intermittently it dropped a lot. That said, for general Internet needs, it was perfect, just couldn't handle a really heavy video meeting.

The location very close to the main square and restaurants and shops is great , also many taxis in the area. The staff are excellent, informative and friendly. Decent sized room and bathroom, and generous tasty breakfast

I scored the Hotel 8 it would have been a 9 but for our room location . On the ground floor with the window opening into the reception area . And the room door also , you can hear every visitor to reception as if they were in your room at the end of your bed. If you can here them , they can hear you , felt like no privacy . Appart from that , great hotel.
