“Fabulous - service and a genuine warm welcome to Morroco”

I have travelled the world on many trips but this will be a highlight. From the moment we entered the riad it was an oasis of calm and service. Nothing was too much trouble and Fouad provided exceptional personal service. Simple things like booking taxis, recommendations for meals etc, which we had no idea, ended up being highlights of our holiday. The room was spacious, quirky and charming. We were collected from the taxi rank and led through the back streets, and opening the door of the riad showed us a beautiful building. A meal was provided to us when we arrived late - one of the best introductions to Moroccan cuisine. Staff were polite, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was outstanding and always something a little different each day. A small pool in the riad was a welcome chance to cool off, and you could order a mint tea and biscuits if you wanted. The riad is an easy 10 minute walk (allowing time for browsing) to the main square. On the corner is a convenience store for bottled water etc and then souk shops and restaurants all the way into the centre of the city. Our week flew by and it was one of the best holidays we've ever had. My second visit to the city and this time really got into the culture and sites. It felt safe and welcoming. Everyone we met was happy to see us and easy to communicate in French or English. I noticed 10 years after my first visit that the city has less pollution, the taxis are more modern. Some signs of the earthquake but nothing that would put you off. Highlights were the museums - amazing presentations of the history and culture of Morocco. Street markets as you would expect - full on! Food excellent.

“Thanks a million to Faud and the staff at the Riad Anabel. Looked after all requests from sorting out best locations for”

Central location, beside the souks and main square, just brilliant

“Oasis of peace in the middle of Medina”

​Outstanding stay at Riad Anabel ​We had a brilliant time here. Right from the start, we were welcomed with lovely tea and pastries, which was a great touch. The room itself was outstanding—I especially loved the brass toilet seat, such a unique detail! ​A huge thanks to Faud and his aunt, who looked after us so well all week. They were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was easily the highlight of our entire trip to Morocco. ​The location is excellent for the main square. They also made arrivals and departures effortless by organizing a porter to meet our driver with the bags, and again for our taxi to the airport. Highly recommend for the service and excellent value.

“Hidden Gem”

Everything

A beautiful riad well located within the medina. Enormous and delicious home cooked breakfasts. The staff were uniformly polite and helpful.

“Very enjoyable”

Lovely people, great location, very comfortable and delicious food

“Riad Anabel”

After reading several 5 star reviews from other people, we decided on Riad Anabel. We are so glad we did. The Riad is stunning, location superb and staff were excellent and could not have been more helpful. The communication before our visit was spot on, and they arranged the airport taxi and the concierge, who takes your bags from the taxi to the Riad (tip expected). We stayed in the Cannelle room, which was great with a huge bed and an added bonus of a shower with a sunken floor. As I'm over 2m tall it made a nice change to be able to stand up properly in a shower with plenty of room. The breakfast was enormous and delicious, so much so that one evening we stayed at the Riad to eat on the rooftop. It was the best meal of our stay (the lamb tagine was so tasty). Marrakech (particularly the souks and main square) is a total madhouse so be prepared, but the Moroccans are lovely people. Also some attractions, like the Bahia palace, only took cash - no cards. Overall a fantastic break and perfect choice of accommodation.

“Gorgeous riad in the perfect location.”

What a beautiful Riad! Great location within the Medina. Very comfortable beds and lovely room. Excellent hosts.

“A beautiful family friendly riad in a great location.”

Riad Anabel was perfect for our family stay in Marrakech. We travelled with our children 10 & 8 and it was very family friendly. We arrived to tea and biscuits. Breakfast was fantastic and plentiful served on the roof top terrace. We were in Rose which was decorated beautifully, spacious and comfy. The rooftop terrace was a perfect spot to relax with a book or game of cards after a busy day exploring. Everyone was extremely friendly. We would highly recommend as a family friendly riad close to the main square.

Nice luxurious place, very pleasent staff, food very delicios, location in the center of old medina, good spa services, beautiful interior

It's not a big said but it's very friendly. The breakfast is excellent and all the staff members are very helpful.

“Beautiful warm welcome stay in the heart of Marrakech”

Beautiful traditional building, fantastic rooms, with wood carving and painting. Very central location, great loungy roof top terrace but best of all, the staff. Fouad goes above and beyond in an extremely friendly gentle way to make you feel welcome, look after you, book or recommend restaurants and organize transport. I would definitely love to come back to marrakesh and stay here again!

“Fantastic riad, excellent hosts, magnificent location.”

Where to start? Everything was truly excellent. The host and staff could not do enough to help us. Organising transfers, dinners, hammam, hot air balloon ride - everything. I really recommend you book dinner at Riad Anabel; the food was really excellent and good value for what you get. The breakfast is also excellent and we loved the eggs prepared in a Tagine. One of us had a massage and hammam at the Riad and it was also really good. Cleanliness excellent. Location really good, not by the main street which is noisy, near the main road, easy walk to all the souks and within the medina. We explored all of the medina on foot. Now for the riad itself; it is just beautiful and we were lucky enough to have some dry and warm days, that meant we could sit at the terrace, which I really recommend you do and see if you can spot the resident tortoise. This was our first time in Morocco, and I would recommend to anyone who is thinking of visiting Marrakech to stay at this Riad. You will not regret it.

We stayed in the rose room, which was perfect for our family. The breakfast was awesome

“Beautiful Riad”

Great location just of the main souk lane, beautiful riad with friendly staff and roof terrace with lots of greenery and a tortoise, the breakfast spread was very tasty.
