"We spent 1 week in Marrakech as a group of 8 friends. Ali and Jannat, the hosts, are extremely lovely people, very hospitable. They were only in the house in the morning to prepare our breakfast, the rest of the day was completely private. We were able to use the riad, which is actually designed for 10 people, for eight people without any other guests after prior enquiry. We would book there again at any time."

Sofitel Marrakech Palais Imperial & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a great part of town - Hivernage. Very walkable area with easy access to airport and all the must see tourist destinations. If you can afford it buy the half board plan which includes buffet breakfast, lunch or dinner à la carte ( you only have to pay for drinks. The hotel staff is wonderful since the moment that you check in and the offer a mint tea & sweets that was very much appreciated after a long flight ✈️ day. The 3 pools are wonderful and climatized to be cool & refreshing. Adult & children's pool separate and a pool for club lounge guests on the second floor. The breakfast buffet was extensive and there is literally something for everyone."
