This very nicely and carefully decorated Riad is owend and managed by a French couple, Nadège and Emmanuel. They gave us a very warm welcome and were extremely helpful in finding touristic attractions in Marrakech and organizing trips outside. Highly recommended.
The Riad is a bit hidden in the Medina; take a taxi organized by the owners for your arrival.

The Medina is not for the faint hearted & fragile sorts should stay away . But This is a hidden gem in the non-touristy bit of the Medina & it has two advantages : Firstly
, it allows you to investigate a neighbourhood you would never otherwise see and feel like a proper traveller as opposed to a corporate tourist and secondly it happens to be very close to a gate giving on to the new city : An easy walk to the center ( shops, cafes etc ) .
The Ryad itself really is a gem. The door opens onto the most lovely lush garden with sounds of water and birds . The rooms are luxurious and beautifully kept. There are books everywhere and because the evenings were a bit chilly we had dinner ( exquisitely prepared by Fahtima an experienced and imaginative young chef) in front of an open fire. The french couple who own this ryad are delightfull & will take everycare to make sure your stay is the best ever with detailed written instructions for finding your way down to 'La Place " . That on its own is worth the trip! For reasons as yet unexplained we were upgraded to the honeymoon room :Highly recommended.

A week of luxury and perfection. It is easily located (for Marrakech) and towards the northern end of the old city - a short, easily-walked distance from all the tourist mayhem but right in the middle of a safe and truly Moroccan neighbourhood. Emmanuel and Nadege are committed to their guests, giving of their time, advice and guidance on how to get the best out of this amazing city. What really counts is that they live on the premises and are constantly available. The house is amazingly clean and beautiful, and roof-top terrace a haven.

This is a truly beautiful and tranquil Riad. Like other reviewers we were glad that we were staying in the north of the Medina as we certainly saw a lot of the city, including areas right away from the tourists sites. We stayed in the Yasmine room which has a fabulous private terrace, we were so glad we booked this room and we made a lot of use of the terrace. Nadege and Emmanuel are really very helpful and friendly, I mentioned to them we had come to Marrakech as a birthday treat for my partner, and on the day they bought a 'happy birthday candle' with his breakfast pancakes, there were further happy birthday touches throughout out the day, including a lovely birthday dinner table in the court yard lounge which made the day really special for him.
We are both vegan's which B&B/hotel owners can be confounded by, but not here; Nadege and their cook Fatima ensured we had truly delicious and interesting food for breakfast and the 2 dinners we ate at Dar Ma Ward.
It is definitely worth booking a taxi through the Riad to pick you up at the airport when you arrive, especially if it is night time, otherwise you could end up very lost as there are no windows in the outside walls of the buildings in the Medina meaning the narrow streets look so similar.
If you are interested in Gardens, it is a very easy walk to Majorelle (Yves Saint Laurent lived here).
