The hype
Travelers adore the location and the incredibly helpful staff, often citing them as the highlight of the trip.
Riad Anjar
$85-150 / νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You want an authentic, affordable Medina home-base where the staff treats you like family, and you don't mind waking up to the call to prayer.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- Prime location in the Mouassine district (central but slightly less chaotic)
- Rooftop terrace with panoramic Medina views and sun loungers
- Ouma and the all-female staff are consistently praised for genuine warmth
Γρήγορη Ματιά: A charming, traditional Riad that nails the vibe but skimps on soundproofing and mattress softness.
Αξιολόγηση από @riadlovers: I pulled back the curtain and was instantly hit by how peaceful this courtyard is. It feels like a secret garden hidden away from the Marrakesh chaos. The pool is small but perfect for cooling off, and the architecture is just stunning.

Reality check
Light sleepers struggle with the courtyard echo and the early morning mosque announcements.
- You want to be 5 minutes from Jemaa el-Fnaa but on a quieter street
- You prefer authentic local hospitality over cookie-cutter hotel service
- You enjoy rooftop breakfasts with a view of the Atlas Mountains
Καθαριότητα & Συντήρηση
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily cleaning is reliable, though some guests noted bedding wasn't changed every single day.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean but 'basic'—expect some worn grout or loose taps due to the building's age.
- Maintenance: Functional but aging. AC units can be rattly and doors creak loudly.
- Linens & towels: Towels are replaced daily, but linens can feel a bit stiff/worn compared to luxury hotels.
- Odors & scents: Usually smells of fresh orange blossom or cleaning products; no persistent musty smells reported.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις & Κρυμμένες συμβουλές
Όλα όσα πραγματικά θέλεις να ξέρεις πριν κάνεις κράτηση.
Is the pool heated?
No, it's a traditional unheated plunge pool. Refreshing in summer, freezing in winter.
Can a taxi drop me at the door?
No. Taxis stop at Bab Laksour or the edge of the square; you must walk about 5-8 minutes through the Medina to reach the door.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a generous Moroccan breakfast with pancakes, pastries, and eggs is included in the rate.
Is it safe at night?
The Medina is generally safe, but the specific alley to the Riad is dark and unlit. It can feel intimidating, though incidents are rare.
Do the rooms have fridges?
Most standard rooms do not have mini-fridges; ask the staff if you need to store medication.
Is there alcohol?
The Riad does not have a liquor license. They strictly prohibit 'outside food/drink' in public areas, but are usually lenient about in-room consumption if you are discreet.
Εσωτερικές Συμβουλές
- ✨
Ask Ouma for a dinner reservation at the Riad your first night—the Lamb Tanjia is often better than nearby restaurants.
- ✨
The 'Hammam' on-site is very basic; for a full spa experience, book a treatment at a dedicated luxury spa nearby.
- ✨
Don't trust Google Maps blindly in the Medina; download an offline map or ask the hotel for their specific PDF guide.
5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The 'pool' is really just a large bathtub in the courtyard—don't expect to swim laps.
💡The plumbing is old; water pressure can be weak and hot water might take a minute to arrive.
💡You will hear everything your neighbors say if they are in the courtyard.
💡The lighting in the rooms is 'atmospheric' (read: very dim), making it hard to read or apply makeup.
💡The rooftop sun loungers are limited; claim one early in the morning if you want to tan.
