Riad L'Orangeraie, Marrakech, Morocco - Explore & Book

"At first, it was a love of golf that made brothers Laurent and Cyril Bernard occasional visitors to Marrakech, but it wasn’t long before a love of Moroccan style made them permanent fixtures. So, fortified with a family inheritance plus a sense of sophistication only hip young Frenchmen seem to possess, the Bernard brothers bought a neglected riad from Marrakech’s influential Tigani family and transformed it into the elegant Riad L’Orangeraie. Situated in the Mouassine district of the old Medina, a five-minute stroll from the vibrant Djemaa El Fna, the words ‘prime location’ and L’Orangeraie are inseparable. But it’s not just a pretty face in the right place. Inside, this harmonious seven-room townhouse wraps itself gracefully around two expansive patios - one with fountains and aromatic flowers, the other with a mosaic swimming pool and steamy hammam. And, literally topping it off, a dazzling roof terrace with views to the Atlas Mountains. Romantic bliss. Highs Location, location, location - you can’t beat the L’Orangeraie’s positionPerfect for nipping back to download your parcels and for a post-shop swimCars can stop at the front door, a real rarity in the old medinaThe bedrooms are lovely and the food is incredibleVery friendly and helpful service from Cyril and his team Lows It gets booked up quicklyDinner is only available on request (you need to alert staff you're eating in over breakfast)As with all of Marrakech, light sleepers may need to bring ear plugs, but we slept like babiesNote that credit card payments incur a 4% surcharge" - Glenda Richards

Astonishingly beautiful, peaceful, warm and hospitable riad. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with mint tea in one of the gorgeous sitting rooms off the cool and shady courtyard, then escorted us to our comfortable and lovely room. Full Moroccan breakfasts on the terrace were a perfect way to start the day with fresh juice, an assortment of breads, delicious homemade yogurt and eggs. And do definitely have dinner at the riad if you can - Nadia's tajines are a delicious work of art! ||The riad is visually exquisite and you'll feel at peace and cocooned away from the busy medina. It's in a great location, just a few minutes' walk from Jema el Fnaa and tons of other sights. ||The staff are just wonderful, and they're what really make this riad special - the manager Aziz does everything he can to make sure you're comfortable and taken care of, and Omar and Imad are so kind and charming. Special shout out to Imad for being a sweetheart to everyone, even strangers - he walked us to our bus when we were leaving, noticed some other tourists looking lost, and helped them find the bus they were looking for. ||Can't recommend L'Orangeraie enough. It's a dreamy oasis and you'll have a wonderful stay here.

Look no further for accommodation in Marrakesh. We had the most fantastic four night stay at Riad l'Orangeraie in the Ginger room. Aziz and the team were brilliant from start to finish and helped us organise a tour guide, hammam, local recommendations and a taxi to our next destination. The homemade dinner was delicious (our favourite food in Marrakesh actually!) as well as breakfast each morning. The riad has been beautifully designed, and the room was very clean, comfy and quiet. Location is perfect, and we felt very safe walking home at night. Counting down the days till we can return. Thank you, Riad l'Orangeraie.

10/10 - quite luxury. Look no farther, you’ve found it, your perfect Marrakesh hide away. From stepping out the taxi onto a busy rainy street to be met by the team holding umbrellas for us to the final hugs goodbye, from start to finish it was a magical stay. The staff give top tire recommendations and advice, they book the best experiences, taxis and even help you when you get a little sick. The rooms are really well presented, art work is stunning, breakfast is so lovely, the rooftop is relaxing and so private. Just stay here, you don’t need to look at any other place.

We had a relaxing 4 days in Marrakesh, to explore predominantly the Medina (the old part) of the city. We stayed at the Riad l'Orangeraie and the staff, food and accommodation were perfect. The breakfasts were filling and had different fruits cakes, breads and yoghurts each day. The staff were very helpful and the roof was the perfect place to relax at night. Overall a lovely stay, and I think 2-4 days is the perfect amount of time to see Marrakesh, unless you're planning on going out of the city.

Riad l'Orangeraie was one of my favorite places that I have ever stayed. The Riad itself is beautiful with traditional Moroccan architecture but updated to look elegant and to maximize comfort and convenience for the guest. We had a meal cooked by Nadia on the first evening and it turned out to be the best meal we had in the entire trip. The staff was so kind and friendly and really provided the best service to their guests. Each person, including the owner went above and beyond expectations and provided incredible service and made our entire stay very memorable and wonderful. I cannot recommend l'Orangeraie enough!

My wife and I stayed at Riad L’Orangeraie for 3 nights. This was our first (but hopefully not last) trip to Morocco. Our stay was perfect and the hospitality of Aziz and the staff was spectacular. Booking was easy, and Cyril was able to answer all questions and was very responsive. The Riad arranged for pickup from the Marrakech train station, very easy. Aziz gave us a good map of the Medina, including some excellent restaurant recommendations. The Riad also arranged for a guide to take us on a half day walking tour that included the tombs, the palace, and other spots outside the Medina. As other reviewers have said, the location of the Riad is great, a short walk from the main square, on a quiet street. It was very quiet at night. Two other highlights were the food, served on the rooftop terrace, and the plunge pool, which refreshed us twice a day in the summer heat. We would 100% stay here again.

The experience at this well-located riad began with communication with Cyril, one of the owners, who was responsive and informative. The stay included arrangements for various reservations, including a hammam spa day. Upon arriving at the riad, we were greeted by Joel, who arranged our luggage pickup and escorted us to the riad, and made our other arrangements. Aziz and the rest of the staff were equally awesome, enhancing our overall experience during our first visit to Morocco. The interior décor and paintings are notable features. I loved having breakfast on the roof top terrace. I highly recommend this riad and will definitely visit again.

Riad L’Orangeraie is firmly within my small circle of favorite places in the world to stay. From the beginning, owner Cyril made himself available for questions, suggestions, etc. and always responded almost instantly to any outreach by WhatsApp.||The Riad arranged travel from the airport, and Aziz greeted us with mint tea, cookies and a comprehensive and humorous overview of the Medina. Our delicious rooftop meal after arrival was the very best of our whole trip, and breakfasts (with fruit, pancakes, pastries, homemade yoghurt and robust coffee) were glorious. ||The Riad is decorated with exquisite taste, and all the accoutrements are maintained impeccably. It really is a gorgeous and peaceful escape.||What really set Riad L’Orangeraie apart, however, was the warmth and care of the people. We all felt like we were in the home of a generous friend rather than at a commercial establishment. Special kudos to Aziz, the wonderful chef lady and the charming night manager (Meled?) who greeted my wife with a hug.||For sure, Riad L’Orangeraie will be our headquarters for future visits to Marrakech and is worthy of a return visit even if we never left its walls.||Bravo!
