- Riad Mille Et Une Nuits

This charming riad is situated in the Dar El Bacha district, one of the most exclusive districts in the medina of Marrakech. The city centre is approximately 1 km from this themed design hotel and the Djemaa el Fna main square is just 400 m away. Guests will find main places of interest in the immediate vicinity and Menara Airport is around 7 km away. The family-friendly historical hotel features 5 traditional rooms and an open patio in the centre of the riad, offering a relaxing setting where guests can unwind or enjoy a drink or meal. Fitted with a lovely fountain, it provides a refreshing atmosphere during the summer months. Guests who need extra refreshment can relax on the sun terrace or make use of the hotel's SPA facilities. Meals are created on-site by the hotel's cook according to guests' individual requirements.
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
Staff was friendly enough and the manager was very kind and helpful, giving us solid advice about the city and the attractions. Rooms were cleaned well and pleasant. Overall good, only criticism is that no hand soap is provided!
I stayed in the Shazaman suite in this traditional Riad in the heart of Medina. It is tastefully decorated in traditional style and they serve an excellent breakfast according to your needs. However, the best strength of the Riad is it's staff. Ilhaam looked after us all the time and provided help at each step. She arranged to order our dinner (too tired to venture out for food), provided all essential tips and advice and served excellent mint tea, but most importantly all with a smile, which is so important in hospitality.
We went to this riad. Not much words to say. They charged us for a city tax of 55 EUR (11 days). Which i understand. But we asked two times for breakfast at 7:15 am. Which was not possible. We payed for breakfast the full 11 days.
The bathroom closet under the sink is terrible and broken. The toilet seat is broken. The jacuzzi is filthy and there is an extra to pay if u want to use it. The remote of the tv has no batteries. Massage room is terrible and filthy. The bath smells like mould and looks like it. Nothing is like on the photo’s. We spoke to the manager ( who really yelled at me). About the city tax. We told him we didn’t want to pay the city tax and get a refund for the two breakfasts. He answered he is the boss and if i dont pay that by tonight he will throw our luggage on the streets. He repeatedly said this 3 times. We have this on audio and i also have pictures of the riad and the complaints i am talking about. We have nothing against the personnel but the riad is terrible The manager is an aggresive person and threatens us. Look at the pictures.
This place is absolutely terrible. Do not stay here. Over priced and under promised.
We booked to go which would cover new year. Once booked and deposit paid we booked our flights. They offered to show us the new year menu and eventually sent over. It didn’t suit the younger people with us so we declined. At that point we were told we can’t stay for new year! Despite not telling us that if we didn’t have the new year menu we have would have to stay somewhere else!
They kindly offered to book us somewhere. However, it was a nightmare place that cost around €400 less than we had paid the for the riad! No offer of refunding us the difference, they just kept it!
A clear case of the French owners hating the English and conning us out of money!
As for the riad. The room was dingy and smelt of drains. Night time was noisy. Not what we expected. The spa was an empty bath tub on the top floor and the laundry was hanging out so you have to fight through to see it!
Don’t stay here it’s terrible and the owners couldn’t care less about the people. There are many different better value places to stay!
Loved this place , a little harbour of peace in a busy Medina... Mohamed who looks after the riad was so nice and made sure everything was ok for me...My room was fantastic, sherazad....the breakfast was great as well, loved the homemade cakes...I was a bit anxious before going as alone but this place made me totally relaxed , I come back 1 day, surely
