Riad Al Badia

An amazing oasis close by to all the main tourist attractions. Everything was within walking distance. Staff were amazing - very friendly and helpful; provided lots of advice on what to see and how to get there. Property was very clean. The Riad arranged transfers to and from property. Both went smoothly. We ate in the Riad on our last night and it was by far the best meal we had the whole trip. Would highly recommend eating here.

This hotel is exactly has it’s advertised. Home away from home. Mr Youseff, Mr Abdel and the ladies are very pleasant. Everyone treats you with respect! The rooms are very clean. Daily cleaning service. Delicious meals. Central to everywhere. Breakfast included, dinner on request! If I could give Riad El Badia more than 5stars I will. Thank you all for making our vacation memorable. We would go out all day and come back to a calm abode and freshly made dinner. I will definitely be back. Love from Femi and Fey! ❤️Shukran!!!

This riad is updated, clean, comfortable and is beautiful. The customer service you get is unmatched. The housekeeper even folded my pile of dirty clothes for me! I was shocked! Great location so you can walk to everything. They will also give you ideas and help you plan.

The Riad is located in a very busy area. Local kids play out until late hours, we could hear them like if they were just in the room with us. |The room is small, the bed and pillows were comfortable.|Cleaning was poor and the washroom desperately needs a make over. The toilet does not flush properly and the tank takes forever to fill up. We found a solution using the water bottle bucket to flush it.|Over all, I don't find the value for the money.

I’m just getting checked out from a one night stay in the Riad, I really enjoyed my night stay. I originally had a dessert camp booked but my flight was changed, getting me to Marrakech later than planned. I found this place and booked. Communication was very easy. I was able to book transportation with the Riad manager Youssef . He also had every request ready for my arrival. Dinner was very good and prompt. The Riad was clean and stylish. Everyone was very polite. I also feel they price things fairly. I booked my transportation to and from my dessert camp with them as the price was far more reasonable than quoted prices from others. The location is a short drive from the airport and doesn’t seem to be far from the center. I would stay with them again and recommend others. Oh breakfast was great as well.

We had the most amazing hospitality service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Asma and Ilham kept the rooms clean and were always always friendly. The front desk were extremely knowledgeable and kind and went above beyond. 100% would recommend!

We booked to stay at Raid Al Badia on the recommendation of a friend and having read all the positive comments on here. Our experience lived up to all of that. ||The positive experience started even before travelling as enquiries about airport transfers and possible excursions were responded to swiftly and in detail. We would recommend the airport transfer (20 euros per vehicle) as the riad is a bit difficult to locate at first. Don’t be put off by the fact that this requires a short walk along a couple of small alleyways; we found it to be very safe and easy to navigate, even after dark. On arrival we were greeted by Abdel whose friendly welcome introduced us to what to expect from the team of four who catered for our every need over the course of our stay. Once you step through the door you enter an oasis of calm which is very welcome as Marrakech is such a bustling and lively place to spend time. ||We stayed in the Junior Suite which proved to be very comfortable and suited us perfectly. It had a large comfortable bed and was tastefully decorated to match the decor elsewhere in the riad. There was a large shower and everything you should expect to go with it. Towels and robes were supplied.||Breakfast was served each morning in the downstairs lounge and consisted of yoghurt, fruit, bread and pastries and a daily egg option; the shakshouka was really good. Fresh orange juice, coffee and mint tea were served alongside. It’s not the enormous variety of options you would expect in a typical international hotel but if that is what you want don’t stay in a riad! We always left the table with our stomachs full and ready to take on the day.||Riad Al Badia is about a 20 minute walk from Jemaa El Fna and other than the need to watch out for the endless stream of motor scooters and bikes it was a very pleasant level stroll.||We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone with an inclination to stay somewhere a little bit different, where character and quality of service are the most important characteristics. The team at Riad Al Badia will do all they can to make sure that your visit to Marrakech is memorable one.

Traditional Riad, super cute, very comfortable with grest breakfast and amaizing staff. I lost my original flight and my arrival was postponed until 2am. The transport that I had arranged from the airport to the Riad never answered the phone or messages. I called the Riad and Yussef the manager promptly arranged for a driver replacement that welcomed us at the airport at arrivals with a sign. The Riad is a short 2 minutes walk off the main street. For a first time traveler to Marrakesh that short walk late at night through very narrow alleys with garbage all around and a lot of stray cats, it can be a bit intimidating. But after we see that the entire Medina is just like that and learning that Marrakesh is super safe it will only be a fun memory to account for. Abdul the night manager welcomed us with a huge smile and the first impression of the riad decor is a wow factor. Beautifully decored. Ownership did a great job. The rooms are also very traditionally decorated and the beds are very confortable. We do need to mind the voice level as the sound travels a lot through the Riad and we can hear everything inside the rooms. With only 6 rooms it is not a big issue, as most guests are considerate and respectful, and it is wonderful to wake up with the sound of the birds singing in the morning. Yussef took care of all our needs as if he was a VIP concierge. Made reservations for Hammam bath and massages, got me reservations on the most exclusive restaurants in Marrakesh and arranged a private driver for a full day tour on a Sunday. Jamal the driver was one of the highlights of our trip. Speaks fluent English, his viature was spacious and immaculate, took us to the best ateliers where he helped us get the best prices (1/4th of souks prices) and suggested what we should order at the wonderful river side restaurante. Very friendly and very personable. You should recommend his services to every guest! The ladies that cook and clean always have a warm smile when the see us. Fantastic service from everyone! They all spoke good English. They are as good as any highly trained staff from a 5 star hotel.||I strongly recommend this Riad for anyone looking for a traditional experience with a personalized service and with affordable pricing. Much better experience than to go to a large luxury hotel! I will be back!
