Riad El Grably

Just stopped here with friends as couple and this is a Riad in a good location for majority of Marrakech sights and sounds. Hanan the owner is very knowledgeable with good English and give great ideas of places to visit and places to eat. The hotel is in a quiet area but fairly easy to find but I suggest arranging airport pick up and drops with the Riad which make it easier and less stressful. Rooms are basic but cosy and clean. Take toiletries with you and a hairdryer. Small number of rooms makes it a quiet Riad and the staff are very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast is available and very good but it’s a simple traditional breakfast and tends to be the same each day, evening meals are provided and can be requested. Teas and coffee are provided on request but at extra cost. There is a roof terrace and outdoor seating with good views of the city and mountains. Hot tub also on the terrace and very private. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to see traditional Marrakech and experience the culture of this iconic city.

We recently stayed and took the whole riad for 5 nights a group of 14 for my 40th birthday nothing was too much trouble and the riad very authentic the house staff are amazing and were there to help at all times. The roof terraces were amazing and the pool and hot tub a welcome relief from the sun !! They even helped me find a florist a band and fire dancers for my party much cheaper than a party planner had quoted me all in all fantastic and highly reccomend !!

Had a great 3 night stay a Riad El Grably. Nice facilities, with the roof terrace, jacuzzi and small indoor pool. Francois and rest of the staff were very friendly and really made us feel at home. Would definitely recommend. Only downside was with the entrance, unfortunately there was building work taking place during our stay but it didn't impact our stay at all.

I live and work in France and was invited by my company to go on bit of a jolly over to Marrakesh for 6 days. Having never been there and wishing not to cause offence I accepted and arrived there mid afternoon with 13 French colleagues. We'd already organised transport from the airport, so we were not concerned about getting to the Riad. What was surprising was that as we arrived at the medina, Regis, the boss, and Adil from the riad were waiting for us with luggage barrows. To get to the riad involved making our way along a few narrow lanes, past many little shops, where, at each one, we were greeted like old friends. Once at the riad we were shown into a beautiful cool inner courtyard where we were invited to sit and drink mint tea whilst our baggage was delivered to our rooms. Nothing was too much for the staff. The dinners, an optional evening thing, was superb, prepared during the day by Yassine. The aromas were just intoxicating. Breakfast was simple, but plentiful and served on the roof terraces, under welcome shade. Rooms, well certainly my room, are simple, but well finished, clean and spacious. Many of the orignal riad details have been preserved. What really struck me about the riad was that although we were only minutes from the central square of Marrakesh and the surrounding area was a warren of activity and noise, once inside it was as if we were a million miles from anywhere. A month a go I was out in Bahrain for a couple of weeks for the Grand Prix. I spent a lot of time at the Ritz Carlton which is an excellent 5 star establishment with a myriad of facilities, but in all honesty it wasn't a patch on the riad.!

We spent 3 nights in this lovely place. Rooms were clean, service was very good and people very friendly. The location was good, the food very nice too. Unfortunately we came two days early when renovation was still ongoing. We can recommend this place as a nice base to visit Marrakesh.

Very nice and cosy riad. Swimming pool, jacuzzi on the rooftop. Rooms with all comfort needed. Very helpfull and friendly people. Good advise on where to eat and to go. The Riad is located in the Medina but only 2 minutes walk from a parking, so easy to get there. If you are planning to stay in Marrakech here’s a very good place to stay.
