Riad Armelle Reviews

Easy access by walking to sightseeing places nearby despite the hustling front market is a bit messy. Our room is spacious with comfy bed and warm quality beddings. The cleaning is superb and the service is personal, yet bath towels are admittedly pretty worn out. However we admire the splendid traditional decor in the house with beautiful antique wooden doors! We enjoyed breakfast by the fireside at the courtyard and amazed by the spectacular view at the roof terrace. Special thanks to manager Cissy for her hospitality and heartfelt sharing about the King’s touching stories. Lovely stay at Armelle and we feel home there!

The location was just right we had access to everything we wanted to see and the trips pick up point was just steps away. The Riad was very clean and the staff were very helpful and welcoming. It was a great location to escape from the hustle and bustle of medina life.

Possibly one of the best experiences I’ve had from Morocco! The staff were super friendly and helpful, the food was delicious, clean and cosy.

Really impressive Riad, with very nice interior design, each room differrent, friendly staff always helpful. Good breakfast choices in the patio, creating however morning disturbances in some rooms with direct Patio access. Easy to find location with good access to and from the main tourist sites (all in reach 15-25 Min by foot).

The riad was 15 minutes from the center by walking around a bit. The family that runs it, the truth is that they treated us great from the first moment and everything was very easy. Breakfast was not bad, enough to start the day. The upstairs terrace is impressive, and very comfortable for dinner.

Beautiful Riad! Restored and furnished with great attention to detail! Like 1001 Nights! The only thing that needs to be mentioned is the clairaudience! Evening guests and breakfast gesture can be heard in the room. Apart from the fact that the food was perfect and the service was excellent, polite, humorous and very helpful, the noise is the only drawback. But you are in Marrakesh and not in loneliness😃

A really lovely place to stay just within the walls of the Medina. An oasis of calm that’s a hop away from the main hustle and bustle of the thoroughfares. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly, and in particular the manager, who sorted out a number of difficulties we had with transport, language and a few other things external to our stay in the Riad. Simply, a great experience.

Beautiful Riad. The decor inside is just beautiful. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served in a gorgeous courtyard. You could have a drink in the Riad after a day out. It is approx 25 mins to the main square. Highly recommend for future travellers.

Incredible experience staying in the beautiful Riad Excellent staff very helpful and pleasant Delicious breakfast Stayed for dinner one night also delicious Beautiful roof top Comfy bed We did the balloon trip would highly recommend it. Amazing experience

In short, this was the best accommodation that we have ever been to. The level of service, the calm atmosphere, the cleanliness. Oh, and don’t forget the food - make sure to have one evening meal here (brilliant). Each room is different so unique is the buzzword. While I am sure many of the other Riads will be just as good, Armelle should be very proud of themselves. 😀😀

Stayed here Friday to Monday with a Jet 2 break. Staff were helpful and place was spotless. Truly authentic Moroccan riad so if you normally stay at the Hilton this may not be to your taste. Our room was on first floor and stairs are steep but there are ground floor rooms for the less able. We were given mint tea on arrival and the day manager took our bags upstairs,showed us all around the Riad and explained everything. Our room was beautiful and shore worked well, beds were firm but very comfortable. We didn’t use air con just left the shutters open during the day as I expected it would be stuffy if you didn’t. Room was cleaned every day and fresh towels if you wanted ( we didn’t as only there for weekend. Breakfast was basic but more than adequate, breads, croissants, pancakes, fruit, boiled eggs and the tea/ coffee was fine. You can have dinner but need to inform them in the morning. They do sell alcohol the only thing not cheap in Marrakesh but we weren’t bothered. The roof terrace is lovely to relax and weather was mild in December. Only a short walk from one of the main entrances where the taxis stop but doubt we would have found it without the Jet 2 transfer only thing to improve is Rooms could do with a small fridge and kettle as there’s plenty space. Great first visit to Marrakesh and highly recommend this Riad especially the staff,cleaner’s breakfast staff, Cici and everyone so helpful

Lovely authentic hotel. Traditional bedrooms and ornate furnishings. Staff were very friendly and helpful, booking a visit at a Hamman for us and giving tips on taxis. Breakfast was a little limited but enough for what we needed. I would definitely go back

We stayed a week in the Riad Armelle, an authentic quaint Riad. It is well placed for exploring the old town. The decor is amazing and the room immaculately clean. It is a very calm place within the bustle of the city. One or 2 things could have been improved to make it 5* review.

The courtyard is stunning, the room decor is intricate and colorful, every corner or detail you see, you'll find something beautiful to stare at for a few minutes! Staff was helpful, very warm and friendly. A lovely breakfast spread in the morning.
