The property was really excellent and unique. The staff were super friendly and genuinely caring The area around was extremely interesting and buzzing and very safe. We were very happy to have picked a Riad instead of a hotel further out of the Kasbah. The food in the different restaurants was amazingly good, great tasting and good value.

Riad Elnoujoum is a beautifully renovated Riad that retains its Moroccan essence and beauty. Slightly back from the main road, we were welcomed by Khalid with traditional Moroccan tea who took time to answer all our questions and make us feel at home. Three stories high, with a central open sky courtyard that contains a delightful green tiled plunge pool. There is light, garden, birds, and three private sitting or dining areas. Our bedroom with private ensuite was on the first floor - beautiful, comfortable and relaxing. On the roof there is a huge and beautiful private terrace as well as a private hamman and massage room (on request). Khalid was also amazing in assisting in organising our tours and a private driver for our onward trip to Fez. Just down the road is the delightful Cafe Kasbah. You will be close to everything. We will be back. Absolutely recommend the Riad Elnoujoum as a wonderful and unique Riad in Marrakech. My husband and I have been travelling and living in hotels since May 2023, this is definitely one of our favourites and we will be back. We also had my Norwegian cousin staying, and he loved it too.

Fabulous New Year Getaway
We spent four nights at this wonderful Riad, with our six year old son. The team were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The Riad is gorgeous, immaculate and so cosy for winter. Our room was stunning, and very comfortable. With ample room for the three of us. Breakfast was delicious, simple and filling. Artisan breads, coffee, fresh juice and local cakes. The little New Year gifts for all three of us, was a lovely surprise and one we will cherish. We can't wait to come back!

Friendly service in a beautiful riad
We had an amazing stay in this gorgeous traditional riad. It's in a pretty good location in the Kasbah area, about a 10 minute walk south of the main square. It's less chaotic in this area, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The riad itself was immaculate and beautiful. There's a central courtyard with a small pool surrounded by rooms, and they are all beautiful. The room was very comfortable and had a modern bathroom with elegant fixtures. Every morning they served us breakfast which was bread, pastries, orange juice, mint tea, and coffee. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful - they told us how to get around, helped with taxis, and even came to find us when we were lost one evening! I can't speak highly enough of this place, our stay was terrific.

A quiet litte riad in the Casbah section of the medina. A bit out of the way compared to some other places, but it was very quiet and the staff were very nice. The room was quite big, as was the bathroom and its luxurious tub. Excellent wifi for Marrakech compared to other places I stayed. IT is a simple riad and offers a simple breakfast in a small dining area off the courtyard, but they were always helpful and arranged an airport transfer at far less than I would have paid getting a taxi on the street. A little thing that goes a long way at the end of your stay. They do offer massages (three rooms for it!), though I did not get one. The only drawback is that it is a bit off the main street, so if late nights are your thing make sure to double check your route back as that area of the medina can be tricky to navigate. For the price and convenience I found it a good place overall and was happy with my choice.

We had a lovely time at this Riad. The staff were lovely, attentive and helpful. The building was charming with comfortable rooms, a nicely chilly plunge pool and a large roof terrace. It is situated in the Kasbah, so very close to the city centre, but quiet inside the buidling. It is not a conventional hotel experience. There is no bar or food after breakfast. Our room was on the ground floor, opening out onto the outside dining area, so if you wanted a bit more privacy, you could request a room on the first floor. If you want a Riad experience, this was lovely and very good value for money.

Every single thing about this Riad was AMAZING!! The staff is incredible!! So friendly and wildly helpful!! The property is exactly as pictured - better even. Location was ideal - so quiet but EVERYTHING is within a quick walk. Lots of great shops, restaurants, & a pharmacy within 2 minutes. Market is a straight shot about 15min with lots to see and eat on the way. I was delightfully surprised when they arranged a taxi for our departure - made it incredibly stress free and easy to get back to the airport - the taxi was the nicest one we had seen the entire week but was the same price as the one we negotiated on the way in. I’m going to miss breakfast - so delicious, authentic & served quickly as soon as we sat each morning. Thank you Khalid & the wonderful women that I didn’t catch names of but enjoyed interacting with throughout our trip. When we’re able to come back to Morocco we’ll definitely stay here again & cannot recommend it enough!

I would recommend this Riad to anyone wanting to stay in Marrakech. The staff are absolutely wonderful. Kind, helpful, and very accommodating to any need you may have- including food allergies. And the food is delicious. Plus fresh squeezed Orange juice every morning. The location is great as well. In the Kasbah area of the medina and walkable to almost everything. The only thing I took a taxi to was the YSL gardens which was very easy to do. It is my second time staying at this Riad and I can’t say enough good things. If I could give it 10 Stars I would.

If I could give this Riad a million stars, I would. The service from ALL the staff was impeccable, absolutely flawless! The delicious breakfast was something we looked forward to every morning and you can tell they genuinely care about your stay. I had a bit of an issue with Expedia - the pictures at my time of booking was muddled, so we ended up with a different room than I booked for. However the staff went above and beyond to look after us! I cannot fault them at all, so if you are looking to book this Riad, book through them directly - don’t use Expedia! But don’t look further, the location is perfect, I honestly have nothing bad to say. Thank you all at Riad Elnoujoum for making our stay comfortable and for making us happy. I will forever tell my friends and family to stay with you! Shoukran!
