Riad Medina Azahara Reviews on Other Websites

Very peaceful. Outside the hotel it´s very confusing but once you enter you forget about the outside. Staff very helpfull, I recomend the trip to Merzouga, it´s safe and the driver is very nice. — Mariana Mota (2011-11-27) Hostelbookers

To our nice surprise we were upgraded by the owner to her other Riad of a higher standard for free, we enjoyed that a lot. Everybody there was very nice and helpful so I would highly recomend it - also for the location - in the heart of the Medina but on quite small and relaxing street. — Anna, Poland (2011-11-23) Hostelsclub

Perfect location for exploring the medina. Nice roof terrasse. Pool but we did not use it since the weather was not as nice (pump works and looks clean). All of us (3 adults and 2 children fitted well into 5 beds room). — Customer review (2011-11-04) Hostelbookers

Swimming pool in the courtyard, a nice cool break from the heat and crowds of the city. Great location. Nice little breakfast. — Customer review (2011-07-19) Hostelbookers

Its inside the medina but its hard to find, located in a very small street. beds are nice and sheets are clean. staff is nice too, the reception guy speaks english and spanish. in general, the hostel is pretty good, feels like paradise on the desert, has a small swimming pool ann a nice patium with couchs. inside the caothic marrakech, this hostel was very good! — Customer review (2011-07-13) Hostelbookers

The location is quite good if you really want to experience the craziness of Marrakech. For us the street sellers were overwhelming so we weren't so happy to pass them everytime, but that is not hostel's problem, the place is just next to main square. The area downstairs is quite nice, as well as the roof terrace. Breakfast was also quite proper — Customer review (2011-07-04) Hostelbookers

The great host! — Customer review (2011-06-29) Hostelbookers

The plunge pool was amazing on hot days, and it was great to stay in a riad so close to the central square. — Tom Curran (2011-06-29) Hostelbookers

the riad has much character. located in the centre of the medina which is very convenient and you are in the centre of local life. at the beginning you think it is lost in those numerous streets but it is quite easy to find it. you are provided with a map. the staff is very welcoming and helpful. — Customer review (2011-06-27) Hostelbookers

I didn't have time to write back Generally I would reccommend this place. The rooms are ok, rather clean and not too many beds in one room. The center of the hostel was really nice, small pool with trees where you could sit and relax. If you like pets you will be vappy to hear that there are 3 awsome dogs, very playfull and funny. As to the people - they are nice, but not so open and you have to ask about everything. But it wasn't bad after we bought the map. — agata, Poland (2011-06-18) Hostelsclub

Quiet in the evenings — Customer review (2011-06-18) Hostelbookers

The staff was really nice, friendly and helpful. I liked the common area on the first floor - great place to meet the other people staying at the hostel. — Customer review (2011-06-14) Hostelbookers
