from the moment we stepped in it was like stepping into an oasis. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Everything was spotless. Our room was amazing. We slept so well. The little treats in the afternoon left in our room were great and really appreciated. I would definitely return and stay again. It was in the heart of the Medina and walkable to everything.

We are so glad that we picked Riad Illayka for our first visit to Marrakech. You are treated like family from the moment you arrive. Rahim went out of his way to make us comfortable. From trying to navigate the souks, avoiding getting scammed, to making reservations for dinner and excursions. He also arranged a personal masseuse to come on the premises for us. The riad itself is absolutely stunning and so luxurious. The location is central to everything and you could walk to all the landmarks around the city. The breakfast was fantastic and plentiful. Be ready to be pampered and treated like royalty in this beautiful Riad that feels like home away from home. Can’t wait to be back sometime in the future and stay with these lovely people again!

Very attentive staff, especially Abdul who was very helpful. The property and the rooms were beautiful. Location was convenient and only 10 minutes walk away from the main square, although the path to the main square can be a bit difficult to navigate - luckily Abdul kindly showed us the way so we didn’t get lost. Overall a great experience and highly recommended.

We spent three wonderful nights at Riad Ilayka and absolutely loved it. The riad is a beautiful historic home tucked away in the Medina — super quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk to everything. Our room was huge, and the bathroom was enormous with the most amazing Moroccan tile work. Every detail made us feel like royal guests! The staff were so kind, gracious, and spoke great English. We felt completely safe and comfortable the entire time. Breakfast on the patio was a lovely way to start each day. It’s no surprise this place is often fully booked — we feel very lucky we managed to get a room.

Abdul was an excellent host. The Riad was well maintained and clean and the breakfast was fantastic. If you are looking for an authentic morrocean experience, this is the place to stay in the heart of the medina. It can be confusing to get to the Riad and it's dark on the walk up to Riad at night so best off staying there in a group, not on your own.
