Amazing stay!

Riad La Cigale is wonderful - the team genuinely want you to have a fantastic time in Marrakech and go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need to do so. I also had a lovely massage at a very reasonable price. Definitely recommend this Riad for solo and couples visits.

I highly recommend Riad La Cigale. It’s in a prime location in the old city with excursions leaving close by. The rooftop is a good place to relax if you have the time. The staff are very trustworthy, friendly and so helpful. The breakfast is well prepared and a great bonus.

Great location in the heart of the Medina. The taxi dropped us drop at the shell service station and we have to walk around 10 minutes to the Riad. The staff were very nice and friendly. One thing to note: we stayed on the upper floor, and every morning there was loud screeching noise from metal chairs being moved on the rooftop where guests have breakfast. It starts early, so sleeping in isn’t really possible.

Simply amazing. The riad is located in a quiet street in the heart of the souks. Easy to navigate and walk around jemma el fnaa. Staff were AMAZING. Very accommodating to our check out time, we got an early breakfast because we were leaving at 7am. One of my favorite riads during my trip to Morocco. Very clean. They cleaned our rooms, always offered tea, wifi connection was good .

Très satisfait du Riad en lui-même et de son personnel, les deux seuls mauvaises notes seraient de l'humidité dans le salon du bas (au mur) et la qualité de la wifi sur la terrasse mais à part cela rien à en dire à part du bien, petits déjeuners très bons et copieux et personnel aux petits soins des clients ... Que du bonheur...

Near the center of it all

Stayed in two riads while in Marrakech. This was the second. It was a little older and rougher around the edges but much closer to the center of action. The two riads were comparable in price, and the service levels were comparable (breakfast, room appointments and bedding/linens). The other one was newly remodeled/refitted. This one was a little older and could probably use a refit soon. But it was much more convenient and required less walking to get to the attractions nearby. Overall a good value for the money.

Dejligt hotel tæt på centrum (Jamaa El-Fna)

Dejligt modtagelse ved ankomst. Vi fik serveret en kop mintte og småkager. Værelset var udemærket, sengen var en smule hård. Hotellet er lidt slidt, men har til gengæld en masse charme. Personalet er rigtigt flinke og hjælpsomme, de hjalp os med at arrangere udflugter.

Zauberhafte Gastfreundschaft

Nach langer Suche im Internet haben wir uns für dieses Hotel entschieden und haben es nicht bereut. Die Lage ist perfekt, wenn man alles zu Fuß erkunden will (nur für das erste Mal unbedingt den Transfer buchen, man wird mit dem Taxi zum Rand der Medina gefahren, dort von Jalil oder Yassin abgeholt und zum Riad gelotst, sonst wären wir, denke ich, total verloren.). Am ersten Abend haben wir im Riad gegessen, es war sehr-sehr lecker und der Tisch war zauberhaft dekoriert, mit Kerzen, Rosenblättern, einfach wunderschön, als wären wir in einem wahr gewordenen Traum. Am nächsten Morgen hat und Jalil alles erklärt und sogar ein marrokanisches prepaid-Handy gegeben für den Fall der Fälle - wir haben uns aber nicht mehr so verlaufen, dass es notwendig gewesen wäre, ihn JEDER ZEIT anzurufen. Die Gemeinschaftsräume sind sehr schön, Frühstück auf der Terrasse (in Dezember!) herrlich. Wir hatten die Rote Suite, ich war verzaubert von den liebevollen "Kleinigkeiten": in der Dusche finden sich landestypische Pflegeprodukte, die berühmte schwarze Seife, Lavaseife sowie Duschgel und Schampoo mit Arganöl - ich war sehr dankbar dafür, sie ausprobieren zu können. Für die Silvesternacht haben wir eine schöne Empfehlung bekommen, und weil der Weg dahin recht kompliziert wurde, hat uns Yassim sogar begleitet, den Weg zurück haben wir dann selbst schon finden können. Als mein Mann krank wurde, haben sich Aisha, Jalil und Yassim so liebevoll um ihn / uns gekümmert, dass es wirklich rührend war.
