The hype
Visually stunning and incredibly hospitable, but the beds are rock-hard and the AC can struggle in peak summer.

Смело бронируйте, если You want the quintessential 'Instagram Marrakesh' shot without the chaos of the main square, and you don't mind sacrificing a bit of privacy for aesthetics.
Почему людям нравится
- The iconic emerald-green tiled plunge pool that launched a thousand Pinterest boards
- Alice and Gabriel (the owners) treat guests like family, not room numbers
- A serene, silent escape from the sensory assault of the Medina
Краткий обзор: It is exactly as beautiful as the photos, which means you will be watching other people take photos of it all day long.
Подтверждено @AlastairEmmett6794033: I honestly felt like I was living in a private palace. The contrast between the busy Medina streets and this silent, lush courtyard is unreal. Spending my afternoons lounging by that famous pool with a book was the highlight of my trip.
Гости, которые останавливались здесь, говорят
Reality check
The pool is unheated and freezing most of the year—it's for dipping and pics, not laps.
- You prioritize aesthetics and photography over modern hotel amenities like a gym or elevator
- You love cats (Bowie the resident cat is a fixture)
- You want a safe, quiet 'soft landing' into Morocco
Чистота и уход
9.2
- Housekeeping: Daily service is thorough; guests consistently praise the 'sparkling' state of the rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Tadelakt bathrooms are spotless, though the occasional 'medina drain smell' is an infrastructure issue, not a cleaning one.
- Maintenance: Impeccably maintained decor (tiles are perfect), though AC units can be finicky.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and clean, though towels can be on the stiffer/scratchier side compared to luxury hotels.
- Odors & scents: Generally smells of orange blossom and cleaning products, masking the occasional street/drain whiff.

Перед бронированием
Полезно знать
- Lunch is available for non-guests (12-2pm), so the courtyard gets busier midday
- Transfer service is highly recommended (~20€) as the riad is tricky to find in the maze
- Breakfast is carb-heavy (breads, pancakes, jams) and delicious, but don't expect a western buffet
Что взять с собой
- Earplugs (essential for the call to prayer)
- Cash (Euros or Dirhams) to avoid the high credit card fees
- Slip-on shoes (you'll be taking them off often)

“Hi Alice & Gabriel, I'm looking to book a stay and would love a room on the first floor like Merzouga or Naila for a bit more privacy from the courtyard activity. If those aren't available, I'd prefer a quiet corner over the street-facing Agafay suite.”
FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the pool heated?
No. It is a plunge pool and is generally very cold, refreshing only in the peak of summer heat.
Can I buy alcohol there?
No. They do not sell or serve alcohol. You can bring your own duty-free wine, but you must drink it in your room.
Is the location safe at night?
Bab Taghzoute is a local, authentic neighborhood. It's generally safe, but the alleys are dark and can feel intimidating. A taxi can drop you very close to the door.
Do they serve dinner?
Yes, but you must book it 24 hours in advance. It's a set menu (usually Tagine) and costs around 20€.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, all rooms have AC units, though reviews suggest they can struggle to keep up during 40°C+ heat waves.
Are kids allowed?
Yes, but the vibe is very tranquil and adult-focused. A screaming toddler in the echoey courtyard will be heard by everyone.
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
Book the 'Merzouga' room if you want the bathtub with the pink tadelakt arches—it's the secret second-best photo op after the pool.
- ✨
The rooftop terrace is often empty during the day because everyone is fighting for the pool; go up there for actual peace.
- ✨
If you arrive late, the 'guardian' of the parking lot nearby will expect a small tip (10-20 DH) to watch your car/taxi drop-off.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The 'Instagram Reality': You will likely watch an influencer change outfits three times for a photoshoot while you eat your yogurt.
💡The Sewer Smell: Like many riads in the Medina, the bathroom drains can occasionally smell of sewage due to old city plumbing.
💡The Hard Beds: Mattresses are firm—traditional Moroccan style. If you need a cloud, you will struggle.
💡The Cash Economy: They really, really prefer cash. The credit card terminal is a last resort and comes with a fee.
💡The 'Agafay' Risk: It's the only room that doesn't look inward to the peace of the courtyard, so you get the moped noise from the street.
