Riad Jona

nice quiet easy to find and easy to get transport

We stayed at Riad Jona for 5 days and 4 nights as a family of four, booking two rooms. Overall, the riad is very beautiful and offers a charming, traditional atmosphere. The environment is peaceful and comfortable, making it a pleasant place to relax after a day out. The staff were consistently polite, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay, which we really appreciated. The hammam experience was also very enjoyable and a highlight of our visit. That said, there are a few areas that could be improved. While the riad is lovely, parts of the bathrooms would benefit from some updating, particularly the paintwork and wooden fixtures. One of the main inconveniences we experienced was that our two rooms were located in separate buildings, even though we booked together as a family. It would have been much more convenient to have rooms in the same building. The pool temperature was quite cold, even on sunny days, which made it less inviting to use. Breakfast was decent but somewhat repetitive, with limited variety aside from occasional cakes. A wider selection would enhance the experience, especially for longer stays. Finally, although we arranged an airport transfer through the riad and paid a higher price for convenience, we were dropped off at Place of Mellah without guidance. We then had to walk through a busy street to locate the riad ourselves, which was particularly challenging without internet access. In summary, Riad Jona offers a beautiful setting, friendly staff,

Superb room, exactly as described and shown in pictures. Breakfast was excellent every morning. The staff were exceptional, and were always available to help. This Riad is in a perfect location.

We loved overall the hotel. The staff was great and attentive. It is absolutely beautiful. The room was clean and the bed was perfect. Very quiet. We would highly recommend staying there! The best Riad that we have stayed in Marrakech.

staff was super nice, the location is very centric, an oasis in the chaos of the souks, would def stay again.

Our stay at Riad Jona during our first trip to Marrakesh was absolutely wonderful. The riad itself is beautiful, and we truly appreciate the staff for their hard work in keeping the property exceptionally clean and well maintained. The only downside for us was the breakfast. As pure vegetarians, we found the options limited since the same set Moroccan breakfast was served daily. A little more flexibility or variety for vegetarian guests would have made the experience even better. That said, we understand this can be part of traveling, and we managed by bringing some of our own food. Another point worth mentioning is the airport transfer experience. While transportation was arranged, we were left to find the riad on our own and had some difficulty navigating the alleys, with limited help from people nearby. We did eventually find our way, but having a clear landmark would make this process much easier for future guests. For example, directing guests to walk toward a specific shop in the main alley and then take the opposite alley to reach the riad would be very helpful. Overall, despite these minor challenges, we sincerely appreciate the effort and dedication of everyone at Riad Jona, and we are grateful for the warm hospitality during our stay.

I can’t really agree with their so-called “deluxe room”, which was what I booked. They’re very strict/stingy with towel supply. There’s only one bath towel and one mid size towel. When I asked for face towel and extra bath towel, I received none. No electric kettle. My unit wad crossed the street from main building, so I had to go downstairs, crossed the street, then to kitchen for hot water. But that only happened if I was lucky that there’s someone in the kitchen.

Amazing

Lovely varied breakfast each day. Great outside space with lots of different seating areas. Beautiful inside. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

Overall, the experience is awesome. We got a free upgrade to a suite along with one best staff service possible. The hotel and room was beautiful. It is also located near all famous attractions. Please note that Raid is located 5 min away from the roads and no vehicles can drop you directly at teh riad. Regardless, I highly recommend this riad.

Beautifully decorated

Tranquil small hotel in an old home. Fantastic location in the Medina. Lovely staff overall. The management did fail to organize a trip that we requested but apologized profusely and the gave us free drinks in return. Breakfast was very nice and beautifully served. We ate dinner here once and enjoyed. I would very much recommend Riad Jona for an authentic Marrakech experience

Lovely traditional riad in the middle of the Medina & within walking distance of most of the must see sites. The riad is clean, well kept & all staff were extremely helpful. A substantial Moroccan breakfast. The roof has a pool & sunbeds, perfect for relaxing after a busy day.

Hot tub not in use. Swimming pool heated but too shallow to swim in. Small area deeper with steps to sit on. Would be ok to cool off on a hot day. Great roof terrace. Rooms are either side of an alleyway in 2 buildings which are connected at terrace level. Breakfast from 8.00 but on our last day when we had to leave at 8.25 didn’t start to 8.15.

A lovely example of a Marrakech riad. Small and friendly, the staff were incredibly helpful. The food was good although a little limited and quirky (chocolate cake for breakfast) but the facilities are lovely, the location is good - just a 15 minutes walk to the main square through the outer layers of the medina. I can totally recommend a stay at the Riad Jona!

This is such a beautiful hotel in such a great location. The staff is incredible! They are so helpful so nice so accommodating. This hotel is in a great location which is a 5-minute walk from the most popular tour meeting location. It's also an 8 minute walk from the big square. We loved walking through the Medina looking at all the stores. There's plenty of restaurants within 5 to 7 minutes walking distance. It's very safe and very quiet.

I ended my stay early. Room - top floor beside pool. Music loud every day. Unable to rest. There were cracks and openings in the doorway, could hear next room occupants. Staff - the first porter who brought me to my room was lovely. When checking out early, it was as if they were angry at me for leaving. Decent location - at the end of an alley which had garbage

Staff were extremely attentive, beautiful interiors.

The staff was very attentive and helpful, really enjoyed my stay!

Perfect stay! We loved it.
