Riad Zayane

We just returned from three nights at Riad Zayne, and it was wonderful. From the lovely welcome of Moroccan tea on arrival, to the beautiful rooms, the gorgeous decor, delicious food and wonderful team, this Riad is an oasis of calm that brings you down from the sensory overload of the streets of Marrakech. The team cannot do enough for you, and the roof terrace is a lovely added bonus. The rooms are spotless and beds comfy. Don't be put off by the surrounding streets, they are a bit of a culture shock but the people are lovely, and like you to speak to them and take an interest in what they are doing and their culture. It's only a shortish walk to the main square, The Secret Garden and the Mosque (to name a few things) - easy to get lost but Google Maps did a great job at navigation! We booked the Riad via EasyJet with a private transfer (perfect as the taxi driver took us to the door of the Riad which we may not otherwise have found). 10/10 for a short break.

I can only echo previous good reviews. We had 4 nights here and loved every minute. I emailed the hotel prior to visiting and arranged a taxi from the airport. We also decided to eat at the Riad that evening as we had a early start and the food and service were excellent. We had a warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Ww went out on a trip early one day so they gave us warm breakfast to take with us. We booked our trips via Viator and did the atlas mountains, quad bike with camal ride and evening show, also did a day trip to the coastal town of Essouria. All trips were excellent and value for money. We loved our stay and will be back for sure and would definitely stay here again. Thank you to the staff for a great stay.

The whole experience at this beautiful riad was amazing. The rooms are beautiful and spotlessly clean. There's always plenty of hot water in the shower. Breakfast is fresh and colourful. And to top it all, the staff are wonderful, nothing is too much trouble. I left something behind which they are taking the trouble to post back to me.

We walked through the bustling market and turned into a quiet road where Riad Zayane is situated. Step inside, shut the door and the silence is deafening. A lovely Riad.staff friendly and helpful.we chose to eat at the Riad in the evening and we were not disappointed. Breakfast was very good with excellent coffee. The roof terrace is fine and perfect for a beer and chill after the souks. All in all very good

From start to end, it was an amazing stay! The host (jaouad) welcomed us and provided us with very detailed advice on the city, things to do, things to look out for and simple Arabic to negotiate cheaper prices in the souks. He was incredibly helpful and so kind. During our stay the girls (Samira, Maliki and Ikram) ensured we always had a lovely breakfast, felt taken care of and overall incredibly sweet and warming. Both Toby and I cannot thank you four enough for sharing your country, traditions and values with us. We had an incredible experience and a wonderful birthday trip in Marrakesh because of you four and we look to be back later this year. The room itself was always clean, spacious and filled with culture. The riad itself was clean, quiet and in a perfect location. It was super easy to walk to the main square, the souk and also the new town. Taxis stop right outside the main road and it felt like you were always emerged in with the locals. It felt lovely to see all the boys playing football when we wondered back at night. Also yummy fresh breakfast every morning! The aircon was a lifesaver after the warm day, the bathroom was always clean and the Riad had such a tranquil feel. You forget that you’re in the chaotic hustle and bustle of Marrakesh once you step foot inside. If you don’t see us first, you will definitely see our family as we have not stopped singing your praises for them to visit you. Shukram Jaouad, Samira, Maliki and Ikram. Inshallah to you all.

Another 5 star review for Riad Zayane. The interior is beautiful and tranquil, and the staff are warm and welcoming and always ready to help. We had a stunning looking room with a bay window seat looking into the courtyard. Breakfasts were varied and tasty. After a long day of hiking in the Atlas Mountains we opted to eat in. The meal consisted of a selection of colourful salads to start with followed by a fish terrine with fruit for dessert, and was excellent. The Moroccan wine was good and the prices very reasonable. The roof terrace is ideal for some late afternoon sun with a Casablanca beer. The Zayane is a real oasis of peace and calm in contrast to the streets surrounding it, a really great place to stay
