Stay here if you want a real Marrakech time!

Samir is the most amazing host ! The small but very comfortable Riad is on the outer area of the old Medina - near a taxi stand which is hugely helpful. The included breakfasts are wonderful. and the terrace is adorable and chill. did i mention how great the staff is?

Beautiful Riad, the staff was possibly the best we experienced in Morocco (and we stayed in 6 different places in Morocco so that is a high compliment). They provided a free map (which came in very handy when our phones died) and common phrases list. They even brewed fresh mint tea and gave us small pastries on arrival, which really helped with the overall relaxing experience. The breakfast was very delicious and you could tell with high-quality ingredients (jams, honey, butter, pancakes, buns, coconut cakes, fresh juice etc) I wish there was more protein though (eggs or yogurt or something savoury). Rooms were very tastefully decorated and had working modern TVs and air-conditioner/heaters. Only drawback is (like many Riads) it is hard to find, initially. Also the location is a bit far, but still within walking distance from the main square (Jemaa el-Fnaa) but closer to other attractions (Le Jardin Secret and Dar El Bacha etc) I would highly recommend this Riad and would book again in a heartbeat.

The Riad was fantastic. The service was superb and Aziz made you feel welcome and at home from the beginning. He was very responsive to my emails. We arrived in Marrakech after11PM and were concerned with finding transportation to the Riad. Riad L'Orchidee facilitated our transport from the airport. We were off to a great start. We loved our stay in Marrakech!!

It was smaller than I had imagined but it was tidy and clean. The room was small but sufficient with an attached bath and the bed was very comfortable. There is a charming balcony. I wanted to stay longer than time allowed. It is easy walking distance to the old market square. It is difficult to find. You have to walk on uneven cobblestones down dimly lit narrow streets and you have to climb narrow stairs to get to the rooms.

This Riad was nice, but what made our stay so great was the service by Karim! He was FANTASTIC! He was so friendly and accommodating and we would return just because of his service. He went above and beyond to make sure we were having a great experience. Other members of the staff were awesome, as well. Thank you, Karim!!

We called the Riad from our van on our way back from Sahara to get directions but the phone was constantly busy. We were lucky enough to find the Riad. The room was cozy and clean. We requested an early breakfast because we had to catch the 8:00 am train to Casablanca but the breakfast was not ready. The property is not bad but the service leaves much to be desired.

A perfect stay in Marrakech

The best choice we could have made for a memorable stay in Marrakech. Riad L'Orchidee is just ideal. Location, service, ambience! The dinner was delicious, every breakfast was a personal experience, the staff could not possibly be more helpful. And Ghizlane organised everything, including our tours, to perfection. We had a wonderful time. Ghizlane and the whole team are just amazing! Thank you so much.

Le rêve

Au calme du chaos du souk tout en étant dans la médina, ce riad est un petit coin de paradis. A mon arrivée, ils m'ont offert du thé à la menthe pour me détendre. La responsable, Burçin, n'était pas là mais elle a eu la prévenance de m'appeler pour me souhaiter la bienvenue et me renseigner sur le fonctionnement du riad et les alentours. J'ai tout de suite profité de la belle piscine qui était juste en face de ma chambre. Je me suis senti comme un pacha ! La chambre propre, parfaitement climatisée, finement décorée, avec un grand lit super confortable et une SDB digne d'un hôtel 5* ! Excellent et copieux le petit déjeuner qui m'a été préparé en fonction des horaires des visites que j'avais planifiées. Extra la vue sur la terrasse aménagée où j'ai pris le soleil et je me suis relaxé en fin de journée. Tout le personnel a été gentil et sympathique. Ils m'ont organisé une belle excursion aux cascades d'Ouzoud que je conseille vivement. Ils m'ont même préparé une chicha que j'ai fumée le soir au bord de la piscine. Mais la valeur ajoutée a sûrement été l'accueil amical de Burçin que je remercie encore. Elle a longuement et aimablement discuté avec moi en échangeant sur son expérience de vie au Maroc, les coutumes locaux et m'a donné plein d'astuces et de bon conseils sur les choses à faire et à éviter. Si je pouvais, je repartirais tout de suite et sans hésitation au riad l'Orchidée.

Riad zentral in Marrakesch

Zentral gelegen. Kurzer Weg zu den Souks. Durch die Souks gelangt man zum Djemaa El Fna. Angenehme, persönliche Atmosphäre im Riad. Großzügig geschnittenes Zimmer, großes Bad. Gutes Frühstück. WLAN verfügbar. Wir haben ausschließlich - in der Kürze des Aufenthalts von 3 Tagen - die Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Medina besichtigt, uns durch de Souks treiben lassen und auf Dachterrassen Tee getrunken. Essen gab es abends auf dem Djemaa El Fna. Wir haben uns in Marrakesch sicher gefühlt, weil / obwohl Polizei oder Militär so gut wie gar nicht zu sehen war.

Not that pleasant

Overall, it was the only unpleasant stay on my trip, and I visited Scotland, England, Portugal and Morocco on this trip. To start, the RIad (Hotel) is hidden in a not that nice part of the medina. When our tour guide came to pick us up for a tour the reception girl told him that we had checked our already (not true), fortunately, I overheard my name and came to meet our guide. Last,, but not least, it is the only hotel in all the countries that I have been that has charged us for a map of the city (one euro). It is not the amount, but the gesture.

Bonne adresse

Riad idéalement situé dans la Médina à 10min à pieds de la place Jemaa El fna. Taxis toujours à proximité (sur le petit parking). Les chambres sont spacieuses, climatisées et agréables. Le personnel est très agréable et serviable. Possibilité d'accéder à la piscine de l'autre Riad qui est plus grande que le bassin de celui-ci. Seuls points négatifs terrasse sur le toit pas assez entretenue et prix de la restauration élevée par rapport aux restaurants dans la Médina.

Surprise très agréable!

Au départ du Québec, nous avions réservé pour 2 nuits au Riad. Devant la grande amabilité du personnel et le charme des Milles et une nuits du Riad, nous en avons fait notre point d`ancrage entre nos séjours au Parc national du Toubkal et à Essaouira. Au total, 5 nuits à se faire bercer par le charme de ce magnifique Riad. Seul bémol, mais qui, pour nous, fut un avantage, c`est qu;il faut marcher près de 20 - 25 minutes pour arriver à la place Djema El Fna.
