It is a beautiful historic riad with museum-like qualities. we had a brilliant time there, we loved the many 'lounge' areas inside and outside, the terraces, the tent, the pool, the library, we had a lovely seating area on the balcony outside our room. The room, bed & shower were great. The Moroccan breakfast was abundant and tasty. Hakim and the other staff were super friendly and helpful in every way. The location can not be better with the Ben Youssef Madrasa around the corner, several other sights within a minute walking, and the rest, like Jemaa el Fna, walkable in maybe 10 minutes. For anything else you easily find a taxi at 200 meters. Restaurants, bars and shops are also close by. Very very highly recommended!

Nothing at all.

The riad is very traditional and the roof terrace a quiet escape from the business of the Menara. It was hard to find and the alley leading to the riad is dark and had some building work going on. We were made very welcome and given lots of insight into the area and attractions as well as things to avoid. The breakfast was good and the pool looked gorgeous even if a bit too cold to use in December. We enjoyed an afternoon snooze on sunbeds. Would visit again.

The entrance alley could have a sign to indicate the riad is further down as the waiter from the nearby restaurant rescued us from walking past numerous times.

The location was superb, as was the pool. It was quite a saviour to have a dip during the hottest points of the day. Hakim and the staff were helpful and very kind, they always did their best to care for us. The Riad is traditional and very beautiful, there are many hidden gems amongst the interiors.

The breakfast was great, however as we stayed at the Riad for 10 days it became a little repetitive. The breakfast consisted of Morrocan breads and pancakes, jams and two eggs every day.

The riad is full of details where you could spend some time exploring the different views from rooftop to the public room. It's also nice to have delicious freshly made local breakfast. We also love staffs are very friendly and helpful. They help you plan the route to have a nice visit in Medina and some very useful advice to save your money.

The entrance is hard to find for the first time visit. It would be very helpful if they can send the picture of the door. But we got help from local people close to the door, they are really nice and friendly.

The staff were super helpful. They gave us the best advices for our trip plus the breakfast they served us was beyond great. The room was perfect and very comfortable. We were in the terrace, in the last floor and were alone in that floor so it felt very private. The air conditioning and the WiFi also worked amazing. Also, they printed for us the boarding passes for our flight back that we really needed. The location of the riad is also great. It is not that close from the jamaa square but it is great to go for a walk in the souks.

The private bathroom of the room had no walls or door to close it properly, so we needed to take turns in the room sometimes. Not the biggest deal but it is not ultra comfortable.

Amazing and authentic riad with very good location in the Medina. The rooms are nice, clean and quiet. Hamkim and the staff is super friendly and very helpful! For example: Hakim helped us to buy banana at midnight, upon arrival to have some bites for dinner after our long flight. The breakfast was also good! Unfortunately the weather was too cold and we did not have the opportunity to try out the pool, but we had an amazing time here!

Location is north of the market streets, quiet spot, and easy to walk to the main attractions but also away from the tourist bustle. The manager gave fantastic advice for our stay and nothing was a bother. The Riad is incredible and a delight to come back to after much walking and site seeing, it’s a sanctuary.

The rooms are gorgeous, however the bed wasn’t the most comfortable for me, but it was fine and we slept well.

For an unique and fun travel experience in Marrakech, opt to stay in a riad instead of a regular hotel to truly experience the Moroccan way of living. We opted for Riad Ben Youssef and the host was very attentive and informative. The riad itself is beautiful and fun to explore during your stay. While breakfast could be improved given some guests enjoy heartier breakfast options, I am aware that what was served is very accurate to an authentic Moroccan breakfast.

Beautiful Riad in a quiet yet central location. The breakfast was exceptional, but above all we valued the welcoming and attentive staff. As it was our first time in Marrakech, Hakim's advice and help upon arrival was really valuable; he met us where the taxi left us, and then took extra time to help us orient and provided all sorts of important info. Having stayed in other riads afterwards, we were really happy that we chose this place for our first couple of nights.

We were overall happy with the room we booked, but perhaps one of the bigger rooms will feel more comfortable to some travellers. The location was great for us, but if I was a female solo traveller, passing some less central alleys on the way back at night, would make me feel uneasy - I'd choose something even closer to El Fna or return a bit early.

We absolutely loved this place, the photos don't do it justice. It's absolutely stunning, both the inside spaces and the outside spaces. Everything was very comfortable, especially the bed. It's so peaceful, sich a welcome respite from the bustle of the city. Marwan and Hakim were both very friendly, looking after us while giving us privacy. I woke up here on my birthday and I felt like a princess!

It was a bit difficult to get the shower to a good temperature.
