The property is neat and clean, and very posh! We had a fantastic experience staying there. The guest manager was very nice and cordial! She was welcoming from the moment we checked-in. She also helped us find Moroccan Black Soap and Nila powder in Marrakech. The area where the Riad is located may not look attractive, but the moment you step inside it’s a whole different experience.

A warm and welcoming Riad!

The warm welcome, the special treatment on our anniversary by an up grade and a bottle of champagne and accommodating us for a late check out made our stay very special. Karima made us feel at home immediately and has an infectious smile and energy! Mohammed was helpful, too. Nothing was too much for them! Many thanks!

Beautiful Hospitality next to the Medina

It is hard to express in words just how wonderful the Riad el Hara is. Karima, Mohammad and the rest of her team are extraordinarily helpful, kind, and welcoming. Karima treats you like your are family and checks on you to make sure you feel at home and have what you need to make it the most enjoyable and peaceful stay. The Riad is lovely with authentic the Moroccan and modern comforts. The spa is an oasis to receive traditional and western pampering. I will be very happy to stay here any time I visit Marrakech. The Riad is a short walking distance to the Medina and short taxi ride to lovely restaurants, the train and bus stations.

You cannot ask for a better place to stay than Riad El Hara. It is just outside of the Medina. An easy walking distance to key areas of interest and restaurants (especially if you go in the early morning or later in the evening when it’s not too hot). They also arrange for free transport to and from the airport, which is very convenient for those who have never travelled to Marrakech. But what makes Riad El Hara special aside from its beautiful interior rooms and garden courtyard is their amazing staff led by the lovely Kareema. She exemplifies Moroccan hospitality. Being greeted by Kareema is like being welcomed home by the most nurturing family member that you never want to leave. In fact, if you wanted to just stay at the riad you would have the most relaxing and pampered experience with delicious breakfast and dinners, as well as hammam and massage experiences. Thank you to Kareema and everyone for making our first and last night in Morocco an unforgettable experience 💗

The best hospitality I’ve ever experienced, wow!

Wow is all I can say. This hotel/riad is the most accommodating and welcoming place I have ever stayed. I cannot believe how amazing and caring the staff are, especially Karima and Ali who helped us far beyond they needed to. Ali even went and got us our bus tickets to go to our next location. He also helped me order food when we were too ill to leave the riad. Karima is a warm, friendly host who makes everyone feel like family. All the staff are really. Our bedroom was stunning, with so many lovely extras such as water everyday, chocolates, nuts etc. they go the extra mile for their guests. The room was very spacious, clean and beautiful to look at. The breakfast was different every day which was great as we got to try different Moroccan foods. I just can’t recommend this riad enough. You have to stay here if you’re coming to Marrakech.

This was our first trip to Marrakech. So many riads to choose from, however, looking at previous reviews we selected El Hara. I have to say we were.not disappointed. Once the booking had been made, we received a welcome message from staff at El Hara. Any questions i raised prior to our trip were responded to quickly, with relevant useful information. We opted for the collection from and too the airport and was worth it. Once at El Hara, we recejved a friendly welcome. The place is beautiful and we had our first introduction to mint tea during the booking in process. Our room was large, pleasent and importantly very comfortable. The breakfasts were varied and certainly kept you going for the day. The staff ... everyone was very pleasent and nothing was too much. All tne small staff team appeared genuinly happy to be there and this gave a feeling of family, which you were made to feel part off. In this business staff are there to make your stay easy, so they have to give a certain impression but at El Hara you never felt this way. You felt you were tneir personal guests or family and made to feel so. The location was great, opposite the walls to Medina with an entry point a short walk away. All the areas you would want to visit are within walking distance. Any excursions further afield can be arranged via staff at El Hara. The only complaint, is that we had to return to the real world of a cold March in the UK at the end of our stay. I would highly recommend El Hara.

Beautiful Risd with Hige Room

Beautiful ex palace now a Risd Hotel. Breakfast is served at top floor enclosed terrace with view, very good set up. Food is traditional Morroccan carefully prepared. Room is huge and modern. I would give it a 5 if they do answer their phone while we were struggling looking for its location inside an alley with no street sign and a very small hotel plate.

We booked Riad El Hara based from all the excellent reviews online and we were not disappointed. From the staff, cleanliness, property condition, amenities and everything else all were Excellent. Karima and Muhammad welcomed us like we were family coming home, Ali arranged our transport from pick up from a different riad and transfer to airport. Staff very accommodating, easy to communicate. We had the Bacha room very spacious, bathroom and shower very clean. We arrived noontime and ordered lunch while waiting for our room to be ready, beef and lamb tajine were all delicious, as well as breakfast. Thank you so much Karima and your staff, we had a very lovely stay. Our only regret is we only booked a short stay in this riad. Karen

We were really excited to stay at Riad el Hara after reading the faultless reviews and it really exceeded all expectations! The team are fantastic - there for anything you need and extremely approachable. I would highly recommend the location for ease of access and exploration of the city. All services offered by the Riad are great, including delicious food and very convenient airport transfer. It was a really luxurious stay, but on an attainable budget, and we would love to visit again. Thanks so much!
