Riad Azawan

We loved our two night stay here. Ayoub was a very good host and made sure we were happy and had everything we needed. We had dinner there one evening and it was outstanding, our best meal in Marrakesh. The location is great, easy to walk to many different attractions. Highly recommend!

very helpful owner, small but clean and comfortable room

First off, Ayoub was an amazing host! However, as a first time Africa traveler from America there were some things worth mentioning. I’m unsure if these things are normal for riads, but we noticed them. The room we stayed in (the only room on the entry level floor) has very little privacy. (The upper rooms had more.) It directly adjoins the interior courtyard where breakfast and dinner are served, and there are two windows (admittedly with covers you can’t see through) (one in the bathroom and one next to the bed.) these do…. nothing to block any sounds. Ayoub was very respectful in trying to keep the other guests quiet, but you still heard everyone entering and exiting the Riad. The entire place was very clean except for the sealant around the bathroom sink. You must take extremely short showers as the hot water runs out in a few minutes. The location was perfect if you want to be away from the noises of the main square! It is far enough from the main bustle to be quiet except the next door mosque’s call to prayer daily, but close enough you can get to the main square in twenty to thirty minutes depending on your walking speed. I would come here again, but stay in one of the quieter and more private upstairs rooms. And definitely take Ayoub up on a breakfast and/or dinner! Be aware that there is a 5 euro per night (for us as a couple) city tourism (?) “tax” that you pay afterwards. We think this is normal as google says it was. Plenty of places to exchange money around.

Amazing Experience

This is a very unique place to stay , away from the city traffic noise , the environment is very welcoming , room was clean, thank you Ayoub for your help ☺️

The room was very nice. The Riad had a courtyard that was pleasant with a relaxing fountain. It was a hidden gem but easy and safe to walk to the kasbah. Ayoub, the host, was amazing. He helped us schedule outings. He also prepared dinner for us and taught us some Arabic and Berber words. Our experience was very personable and memorable. We highly recommend staying here.

Loveley cozy Riad. In the Kasbah a short walk from the main town. Staff very freindly and helpful , food great and lovely room.

Ik en mijn vriend hebben een fantastische ervaring gehad bij Riad Azawan. De kamer was prachtig en schoon. Bij aankomst werden wij ontvangen door Ayoub met een glaasje thee. Hij vertelde ons wat leuke feitjes over de Marokkaanse cultuur en hielp ons met het boeken van taxi’s en dagtours. Hij verzorgde ook een heerlijk ontbijt en checkte vaak in of we nog wat nodig hadden. Shoutout Ayoub!

Beautiful building. Staff was attentive and helpful. Good location.

Accueil parfait et tres agreable Repas et petit dej exellent
