Riad Dar al Kounouz

Absolutely gorgeous riad in the heart of Marrakech. The rooms were large and elegant and the service was great. Would definitely stay here again.

I was traveling in Morocco alone, and I had some difficulties in my travel. First I got my leg injury on the day before I arrived at Marrakech, and second my credit card had connection problem between the bank in my country. (couldn’t withdraw money!) The staff in this riad were very nice, one talked to the other guests to solve the credit card problem, and the other guy made a light meal for me. Both guys took care of my leg. Finally the card turned out to be available in Restaurants and souvenior shops, so I did not starve, and made to go back to my country. I really appreciate these guys, and I definetely recommend this riad when you travel in Marrakech. The room was nice and Jamaa el Fna and Koutoubia mosque are walking distance.

This Riad has a lot of character, is clean, offers great personal service and is located close to the main square in the Medina (the older part of Marrakech, which I think is where most visitors would spend their time). I recommend it if you like a comfortable, clean hotel with great local flavor. It is located at the end of several long alleyways off of another narrow street, and it would be very hard to find the first time on your own. It is not directly accessible by taxi, which is common in the Medina part of town. I highly recommend that you ask the Riad staff to arrange for a driver to pick you up at the airport, and they will also arrange for a porter to meet your taxi and bring you and your bags to the Riad. The Medina part of town is old and looks pretty scary when you first arrive, but seemed safe after we walked around and is full of character. I suggest asking the Riad staff to arrange for a guide to take you around the Medina area your first day - a half day is around $50 and is well worth it - the guide will bring you to some nice shops too, but there is no obligation to buy. If you are an adventurous traveler, you will enjoy this Riad experience. If you like to stay at five star hotels, this is not for you (and you should probably stay in the newer part of Marrakech).

Gute Lage, mitten im Zentrum. Sehr nette und hilfsbereites Personal

orientalisches Flair im Atrium und Frühstücksraum freundliches, aufmerksames Personal zentrale ,aber etwas versteckte Lage

Séjour très agréable dans ce magnifique riad situé au cœur de la médina de Marrakech, à proximité des principaux sites touristiques (place Jemaa el-Fna, Koutoubia, souks, ...) tout peut se faire à pied. Le personnel est très accueillant et serviable, toujours présent pour donner de bons conseils (visites, restaurants, taxi, achats, ...). Un transfert depuis l'aéroport vers le riad est proposé à 15 euros. C'est plus cher que le taxi qui coûte environ 10 euros mais ça reste très raisonnable compte tenu qu'une personne nous aide ensuite à transporter les bagages et nous guide à travers le dédale des ruelles jusqu'au riad, et c'est plutôt rassurant qu'on vient pour la première fois dans cette ville. On est accueilli avec un thé à la menthe. Le riad dispose d'un hammam et d'une terrasse panoramique où l'on peut venir prendre le petit-déjeuner le matin. Un dîner marocain fait maison est également proposé à la demande au prix de 18 euros (entrée, plat et dessert). La chambre était très confortable, tout aussi bien décorée que le reste du riad.
