Overall Ratings & Reviews Riad El Zohar

The staff was excellent, especially Erradi and Morad. This is a small quiet boutique hotel very close to the center of Marrakech but tucked away in a quiet alley/walkways inside the medina. We enjoyed a beer or glass of wine each evening after shopping or touring on the rooftop. We enjoyed dinner there our first night after a day of travel. Allan was very helpful in all of his responses to our inquires.

Wonderful place to stay in the medina. Very attentive staff and super relaxed. Great breakfast. Also very comfortable. Would return.

Allan and his team were fantastic hosts.

I cannot recommend this Riad enough. Allan, Malika & all the staff are exceptional. They make a wonderful team. Nothing was too much trouble. Allan showed us around Marrakech & how to navigate our way around the alleys & was full of really helpfull tips & info. He even took time to take us to his favourite spice shop where we purchased amazing spices. The Riad itself is beautiful & very well situated in the centre of everything. It is a calming oasis amongst the hustle & bustle of the city. Our room was lovely with an amazing bathroom. The breakfast is very good & there is a constant supply of tea, coffee & mint tea if you want it anytime. There is also a beautiful roof terrace you can enjoy. If you book this Riad you will not be disappointed. We had a wonderful 3 nights stay here & would definitely return. Many thanks to Allan. Malika & all the staff for making our stay such a special one

We had a lovely stay at this Riad. It’s very quiet and clean. The staff are lovely and unfortunately I can’t remember the guys name who works night but he is very helpful. My advice would be to read the guest guide when you arrive as there so many helpful tips in there. I would also recommend asking for transfers to and from the airport as that was very well organised. Breakfast were great , I wish we had of tried an evening meal but unfortunately we didn’t have enough time. Thanks again to all the staff.

Our stay at El Zohar was wonderful. All the staff were fabulous to us! We missed meeting Allan but hope there will be another time iin sha' allah.

Our stay in our Riad was amazing, the best meal we had during our whole day. The staff were very helpful and friendly. There was always someone who spoke English, which was helpful. Breakfast was lovely. The accommodations were clean and they were very accommodating. My only struggle was that when we returned at night, it was hard to find our way back to our door. We did feel unsafe at one point. In hindsight, we should have called the Riyadh and I know that someone would’ve come and met us. It was a true traditional, Riyadh and very pretty.

Nice, comfortable accommodation, friendly staff. A little bit out of the way, but quiet - a plus in our eyes...3 days is long enough

We had a fantastic stay at Riad El Zohar. Its location is ideal for exploring the city—right in the heart of the Medina, yet offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. The staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. We especially loved watching the sunset from the rooftop terrace and waking up to the sound of birds in the morning. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. We highly recommend this beautiful riad to anyone visiting Marrakech.

Kind staff and wonderful road. Twas an adventure to walk to and from the souks but we quickly remembered the correct paths and alleys. Fabulous stay and experience!

A gem in Morocco. The owners and staff could not have been more accommodating. WONDERFUL!1

Hosts and staff very friendly and helpful. Lots of information available. Nothing was too much trouble. Location was great. Would definitely recommend

The Riad is beautiful but some of the areas around it were severely damaged by the earthquake. Walked through/past some dodgy masonry. Allan and M are great hosts but A has not been well and we didn't really get introduced to the Riad itself nor the services they offer - which we would have used more had we known about them. Such an interesting place.

Everyone was so nice and I felt safe as a solo traveler.

As with all medina properties, the beauty is seen when you cross the threshold. The room was a cosy twin and the communal areas were clean and pleasant. The roof terrace was spacious and is a lovely outdoor space.

We were looked after from the moment we arrived at the airport to the moment we left. A wonderful team at the Riad made sure we had what we needed and kept the place clean. Always had answers for our questions and were good company

The staff was amazing. I would have liked them to educate me more on what they could help with recommend during my stay. I didn’t not hear about this until the end of my stay. Otherwise things were wonderful.

Lovely old Riad traditionally furnished - Erradi welcomed us with lots of information and showed us the quickest way to the main area. Very peaceful after the hustle and bustle of main square nice roof terrace for a beer or glass of wine at the end of the day

Riad El Zohar is the ideal place to stay in Marrakech. Allan and the staff were very helpful even before we arrived, with Allan organising a smooth airport transfer for us despite the fact that I left it very last minute to request this service! We were welcomed warmly to the Riad by Radi who not only gave us helpful information about Marrakech but also showed us to a bureaux de change to exchange our money. This was such a thoughtful touch as the medina is a vibrant maze and it takes a little while to get your bearings. Marrakech is a bustling, exciting city and to have somewhere so peaceful to unwind after a busy day was essential. All that while still being in the heart of things! The Riad itself is beautiful. It has all of the little luxuries you would need from a hotel whilst also retaining the features that let you appreciate its age and history. We especially enjoyed spending time in the plunge pool, the roof terrace (amazing views of stars and sunsets from up there), and the cosy games room. We had dinner in the Riad on our first night and I would fully recommend this as well. In terms of quality and value for money we both agreed this was the best meal we had during our stay. The breakfast is also fantastic. I couldn't recommend Riad El Zohar enough and wouldn't look to stay anywhere else on a visit to Marrakech.

We had a fantastic time staying at the Riad El Zohar and the owners Allan and Malika Crump were the perfect friendly hosts. It is an oasis and hidden gem in the centre of the Medina. Riad is charming and lots of character. Rooftop terrace is a perfect place to relax and enjoy a dinner. Transport to and from the Riad was organised by the hosts and was perfect. Staff were exceptional and the ladies prepared delicious breakfasts etc. Special thanks to Morad who went out of his way to give us an orientation tour of the local area. Thanks to Erradi for his organisation and his humour. Overall a wonderful and authentic experience at Riad El Zohar and very highly recommended.
