We went to Marrakech for a 4 days short trip. Tried to have it all, staying in the Riad, touring the souks, visiting the mountains, bit of trek. The stay was pleasant, something we never tried before. Actually coming from India and living in a villa amidst slums was not very relaxing, a hotel would be more suitable. The place... More

A quiet, relaxing Riad amongst the hustle and bustle of the Kasbah. A very warm welcome from Badr and the rest of the staff - nothing was too much trouble.

Riad Shemsi is a lovely oasis of calm and elegance within the natural hubbub of the Royal Kasbah. We spent four nights staying in the chocolate suite which, like the rest of the riad, is beautifully appointed and furnished. The staff, especially Noura and Badr, took care of all our needs, including providing us with a lovely breakfast each day,... More

This was our first trip to Marrakech and Riad Shemsi was recommended to us by family friends, who had stayed there a couple of times, so we thought we would give it a try, even though we were a little apprenhensive as we usually always tend to stay in large hotels. We were far from disappointed and had a fabulous... More

After a slightly in unnerving transfer when we were not sure what was going on - don't be alarmed when you are led down several dark alleys if you arrive a night! We stayed in the chocolate suite and it was lovely. The staff at the raid could not do enough for you, and if you are visiting you MUST... More

This Riad is a little hidden oasis of calm in the South of the Medina. We were really well looked after by Noura & Badr. The room was lovely, as was the roof terrace and pool - this place is pretty perfect! They also gave really good advice on exploring the city and their recommendations on Hammams and restaurants were... More

Wonderful staff here who made us very welcome. Their knowledge and tips were also very welcome - I cannot thank them enough. If you go - ask them to organise a trip to the mountains (which in itself isnt exciting particularly) and to stop off for lunch in Richard Bransons Mountain Resort - this was very special if you are...

Wonderful place that I came across simply by mistake after giving up on all the hundreds of other so-so riads on the internet- very glad I did. Would definitely recommend for relaxing holiday to Marrakech. Staff very helpful, rooms beautifully decorated, warm hospitality and clean! Something lacking in other places in Morocco! Had a relaxing few days trip away, it... More
