    That we couldn’t stay longer!!

    Beautiful tranquil paradise. Such a gorgeous riad, would recommend to anyone. Breakfast was delicious. Mohamed really is an asset to the riad, but all stafff are so attentive and helpful making our stay incredible.

    We loved our stay here - really comfortable beds and a great breakfast. Mohamed also went above and beyond for us when our airport transfer didn't show up and organised a driver to collect us from the airport within 10 minutes which was hugely appreciated.

    The riad needs a lick of paint of a refresher, it's getting tired. Pictures in Booking.com appear to have been taken a while back and the owner needs to invest in replastering in places, repainting in general and replacing some of the furnishings eg. floor rugs with holes.

    The riad is charming and after a hot dusty day in Marrakech it's the perfect retreat. Mohamed and Yousef were both great, Mohamed was particularly helpful.

    We spent 12 nights at the Riad Zaouia 44 as a family with two children (11 and 8). The riad was the perfect place to stay in Marrakech and we would all go back at the drop of a hat. We stayed in the Salon Suite which was large, spacious and comfortable with an excellent balcony overlooking the leafy courtyard. The rooftop terraces were lovely places to relax as well as down in the courtyard, where the temperature was always nice and cool however hot it was out in the medina. The location is also great, not too far from the buzzing Bab Taghzout, where there are plenty of places to eat. Best of all though was the staff. Mohamed and Youssef couldn’t do enough for us, they were always on hand to answer questions or help out, and the kitchen staff provided an exceptional breakfast every morning. Thanks for providing us with a memorable stay in Marrakech!

    Seems like the owner has not been around lately as the common living room is a bit carelessly taken care of and appropriated by the staff, the bathing towels are very old, the sofa bed is deformed,… Staff is ok, but does not show you around the riad when you arrive. They hang around as if they were at home.

    Beautiful riad! Beautifully and carefully renovated and decorated. Rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The courtyard with its garden and pool has an amazing atmosphere!

    The Riad’s courtyard is very chilly in winter. It would be better to have breakfast on the roof top ;-) what we did last day. But in summer time this must be a wonderful escape from the heat. Also, the room had a heater so it can be warmed up to somebody’s liking.

    Beautiful building inside and very comfortable room. The decor is very minimalist. It could use some more touches here and there to lift it up to a perfect and ideal spot. Nice roof terrace and good location in the north of Medina - close to the soeks and a “ real “ less touristy part of town. Very quiet inside, perfect for sleeping. The hospitality and kindness and high quality customer service provided by Mohamed was very appreciated. Our stay got a “personal touch” and it felt like staying at home with a friend that knows where to join in and when to give guests some space. We got lots of information about the city and safety. And help with arranging a shuttle when other hotel we stayed in just ignored our requests. Very professional.

    One thing that wasn't ideal, but is out of the control of the Riad, is that there is a mosque very close by, and the morning call to prayer around 6:30am is very loud.

    Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. We had dinner at the Riad one night and it was the best meal we had during our visit to Marrakech. Home cooked and delicious.

    Roads leading to the property had narrow roads and it was a bit difficult to find a cab and tour bus couldn’t go to where we were.

    Although the staff were limited, they went way and beyond to try to cater to our needs which we are very thankful for. Mohammed, the host was really good and he even gave us a heads up on what to do and what nots, directions and recommendations were provided. Good view for the sunset too!

    The rooms did get cold, particularly in the evenings. It might be nice to provide some disposable slippers as the floor is very cold and consider little heaters.

    The hosts Mohammed and Yusef were extremely friendly and helpful, which made the stay comfortable and smooth. The riad was clean and we liked the option to sit in the shade downstairs or the sun upstairs. The room was nice and clean too, although cold in the evenings so bring a jumper! Breakfast was simple but good. While not in the very centre of the medina we found the location good - 15/20 min walk to the centre, taxis could be picked up two minutes away and would drop you right back outside the riad door. There was a bank/ATM about 5 minutes away too.

    We went in Feb, so the room is a bit cold so we had an electric blanket but only one one side so extra heating for cold months would be good. In the middle of the riad as it’s open, it’s open so also outdoor heaters would help too but I can’t fault anything else as everything was exceptional.

    The staff were so warming and lovely every day. The riad is beautiful! The rooftop is breathtaking.

    Close to a mosque with loud minarettes

    I’ve been in the riad for a week and the staff is very friendly and working hard for your pleasure! The riad itself is hidden in a small street just outside the marketcentre, you wouldn’t know it was there if you don’t have a map. When you need some shade you can sit outside on the ground floor and if you want to bake in the sun you can just chill on the rooftop. If you are in the mood for some wellness there is a possibility to get massages or a hammam as well, we booked the hammam and it was very nice! I really loved the stay!

    The way Mohamed made our trip the best we ever had is indescribable! He was there 24/7, taking care of all our requests and helping us. I’ve never seen such an amazing human being before! He made us feel at home and was a big help with navigating through a foreign country! Big thank you to him and also the whole team! We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay at the Riad Zaouia 44 more and we will be back next year for sure! Hope you know what a dime as an employee you got there! Best wishes from Vienna!
