Riad Aladdin

This is a lovely riad in a great location - steps away from Tinsmith Sq / Place des Ferblantiers which is perfect for the spice market, great bars and restaurants, the Mellah, and a quick walk to Jemaa el Fnaa, or for finding a taxi. The tiny fried fish / aubergine cafe round the corner is perfect for a take away lunch. We arrived just before sunset and the wonderful staff brought mint tea and little biscuits up to the roof terrace for us so that we could watch the stunning sunset while filling out the check in form. The room and bathroom were great (lovely big towels!) and the friendly staff always on hand if needed and super helpful. Definitely recommended. Went as a couple but this riad would be great for families too.

Riad Aladdin is perfectly situated just inside the city wall so that taxis can drop you off at the door.  Many Riads are not so accessible Riad Aladdin is near a square with bars and restaurants so you don't have to walk far if you arrive late in the day. Cash (Sterling) is best. Any bureau will exchange for Dirhams, but not cards. A lot of places will accept Euros.  The Hotel Ali in the main square offers the best exchange rate.  Don't be put off by the queue.  It is fast moving. Alcohol: Be aware that alcohol is only available in a few restaurants and is expensive. The Riad Aladdin has a bar .

We been here for 4 nights and honestly, we've found it just perfect. Its in the best location, just 200m from souks, markets etc and it's so quiet. The staff are lovely and always happy to help. Breakfast it simple. Breads, yoghurt, fruit etc with jams, honey. They also offer massage and sauna etc although we didn't have time to try this out. We stayed in room 17, this is on the top floor, below the sun terrace It was very clean and staff were there daily to clean, tidy the room. The riad itself is beautifully kept. We flew with easyjet and whilst this was one of the cheapest on our search, it's fabulous 👌 If you are coming to Marrakech please stay here, it's next to Palace, restaurant's etc. Please be mindful in the souks if you are visiting for first time, the locals will try and send you around in circles to get you lost so you spend more money! Recommend, Kosybar, Dar Esselam and Palace cafe el badi

What a fantastic short break! We booked a 3-night stay on a whim having seen our friendly travel agent advertise a similar offer at a different Riad but on dates we couldn't make. The Riad is perfectly located, we walked everywhere except Jardin Majorelle (got a cab) as it was so hot we couldn't face the walk. We walked to the souks every day, to the hammam (le bain bleu) and all the bars and restaurants. You can't simply walk in and enter, you have to knock and a cleaner lets you in. The Riad was very clean in communal areas, as was our two-bedded room. Slight mix up on arrival where they tried to put us in a double (we booked a twin, being two friends), but they swiftly moved us to a two bedroom suite. Beds were very comfy and for once with decent firm pillows, not the super-soft rubbish you often get! No fridge in the room. No tea/coffee facilities. No safe. Note there is a gap above the ensuite bathroom door so not soundproof. Breakfast was a complete waste of time, so we went once then not again. Wine was cheaper there than in Kosy Bar around the corner. Roof terrace at the Riad was stunning but disappointing that the pool wasn't open. Highly recommend doing a hot air balloon tour at sunrise, and drinking in the various rooftop bars. Also do buy a couple of tins of cat food for the stray kittens at the door, if you have a heart. I'd defintely go back.

It is a very well-located Riat. It is beautiful inside, and the staff is super kind! The room we had was very well distributed, great size! It was just too close to the restaurant, so if you don't have plans to wake up early, I suggest to ask for a room on the other side. My only suggestion to the place is to change the bed top covers because, although they are very cute, they gather a lot of dust.
