Amazing stay!
I had a WONDERFUL stay at Riad Dar Aby. The hosts were incredibly helpful in explaining some of the best places to visit, eat, and see, as well as offering tips on safety. The place is beautiful and the rooms are well-equipped with all of the essentials. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone visiting Marrakech and would stay here again myself.

Rad, London, GB

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
THE BAD: 1. Very disappointing breakfast — a pancake with maple syrup, bread, butter, jam, glass of orange juice and cup of tea. No variety whatsoever. 2. No shampoo or shower gel provided. Only a soap bar. 3. Very old towels. They felt like sanding paper. 4. Night receptionist not very friendly or knowledgable. THE GOOD: 1. Very good location. 2. Room cleaned and bed made properly every day.

Nice 3 night stay.
I stayed for 3 nights for my birthday. It was convieniently located for the old town, El Fina square, the souks, two palaces and a large mosque. Also only a 10-15 stroll to the new city with all your high end shops and restaurants. Good Wi-Fi, and very nice breakfast included. Only issue was with pre arranged taxi pick up from airport that didn't turn up, but other than that a very enjoyable weekend in a traditional riad.

A nice, comfortable little Riad
This is a lovely little Riad very close to the souks and main sites in Marrakech. It's nothing fancy, but the staff are friendly and the rooms comfortable, plus it has a nice little rooftop. The breakfast was lovely, some of the best we had in Marrakech. The Riad is small, and while that's not a problem it does mean that noise carries throughout the building pretty easily so it might not be suitable for people with small children or if you don't sleep well with outside noise. Still, it was a lovely little place and we would definitely recommend it.

Great authentic riad in the Médina. Riad was easy to find and not deep down a tunnel like path. I had them arrange for airport transportation and that was definitely a relief. The staff was very attentive and accommodating of my schedule. Some days I had tours scheduled early and they were still up early to serve me breakfast. Beautiful terrace to relax. Staff spent time reviewing what the do’s and dont’s of the area were upon my arrival. My room was cozy and just what I anticipated. Would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Marrakech.

Brilliant little Riad very close to all the sights
We stayed in Riad Dar Aby for four nights and it was absolutely perfect. It's located so close to all the main sights (Big square, souks and also the new Town if you need a break from leather bag shopping!). Karim and his colleague were so friendly and helpful and made us feel welcome immediately. Breakfast was good and wifi reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

I was very lucky to have booked this riad. Karim and his associates were very accommodating and friendly. They gave great advice about places to visit, restaurants, and pricing for taxis/souvenirs. The room was comfortable. The shower was hot. Breakfast was traditional breads, strawberry jam, tea/coffee, and orange juice. The riad is conveniently located to see many popular sites. I would recommend to others.

I chose this place because of its high rating. Well, I wasn't disappointed! Both the day and the night receptionist were so kind, and embarrassingly fluent in English. It almost hurts to single out any one gesture of kindness, lest I do injustice to the others - but if you forced me, I would say that it was making my breakfast an hour before the scheduled time, before an early flight.

Huone oli hyvän kokoinen ja siisti. Sänky oli ihan hyvä. Siivooja kävi joka päivä vaihtamassa pyyhkeet ja petaamassa pedin. Aamupalalla oli jogurttia, kakkua, paikallinen lettu, paahdettua leipää ja appelsiinimehua sekä kahvia tai minttuteetä. Kattoterassi oli hiukan vanhanaikainen, mutta kokonaisuudessaan riad vastasi odotuksia hyvin.

(+) Buena ubicación, habitación amplia, limpieza adecuada, personal amable y profesional, que nos proporcionó información útil Nos permitieron la entrada antes de la hora prevista, y dejar el equipajeen recepción con total seguridad. Como mejora, en la habitación hecho en falta algún enchufe de 220 VAC y aumentar la iluminación.
