Nice quiet oasis in the middle of the Medina.
Recommendations for restaurants were excellent.
Breakfast was good.
Highly recommend the airport pick up and porter.
Property well maintained with excellent staff. Clean and comfortable room. In a very convenient location near Medina. We would spend time there again in the future.
This Riad is a real gem - we were looked after so well and the building was beautiful with everything we could need. The staff are all friendly and attentive, and Allan was very approachable and helpful the whole stay. The food was amazing and the location is really central to everything we needed. The rooftop was a real bonus too - especially for relaxing evenings. Highly recommend.
An amazing gem! The perfect spot to relax after a busy day taking in all that Marrakesh has to offer. Allan and his team are superb and go out of their way to look after you. We were sad to leave such a beautiful place. Thank you so much for making our trip so special
We had a wonderful stay at Riad El Zohar! The riad is ideally situated within the Medina yet is a quiet, atmospheric retreat. The staff made our visit to Marrakech hassle free and fascinating through helping with transfers and providing great recommendations. Thanks to all.
The staff was excellent, especially Erradi and Morad. This is a small quiet boutique hotel very close to the center of Marrakech but tucked away in a quiet alley/walkways inside the medina. We enjoyed a beer or glass of wine each evening after shopping or touring on the rooftop. We enjoyed dinner there our first night after a day of travel. Allan was very helpful in all of his responses to our inquires.
Allen and the staff were welcoming and the breakfast was delicious. They happily accommodated when we needed to leave early in the morning and happily receive us when we got home late. I highly recommend staying here, they make it feel like home
We had a fantastic stay at Riad El Zohar. Its location is ideal for exploring the city—right in the heart of the Medina, yet offering a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle. The staff are incredibly welcoming and attentive, making us feel right at home. We especially loved watching the sunset from the rooftop terrace and waking up to the sound of birds in the morning. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. We highly recommend this beautiful riad to anyone visiting Marrakech.
Absolutely perfect. Amazing service and staff. Felt like being at a family friend's. For anyone visiting I would recommend a Riad, and definitely Riad Zohar! The twin room was a great size, clean and cool, with Air Con but only used it once. The pool and roof top terrace were great after a hot day out. The hosts are lovely and all the staff attentive. 10/10!
Lovely old Riad traditionally furnished - Erradi welcomed us with lots of information and showed us the quickest way to the main area. Very peaceful after the hustle and bustle of main square nice roof terrace for a beer or glass of wine at the end of the day
As with all medina properties, the beauty is seen when you cross the threshold. The room was a cosy twin and the communal areas were clean and pleasant. The roof terrace was spacious and is a lovely outdoor space.
