not a 5 star hotel but we experienced a 5 star treatment. indeed superb. service was the best. we were super troublesome hotel guests but we didn't feel like it at all because they were so nice about it. we reached at 11pm because of the delay in our Sahara desert tour but were received warmly. we were hungry, and wanted to order delivery. the receptionist (hamza) gladly let us use his number to order it instead - and was so nice to collect it for us and deal with the deliveryman since we didn't understand Arab. Hamza also helped us print our boarding passes. and guess what? they also clean the room every single day! (thats so unexpected!!!) they also borrowed us 10 EUR when we were out of cash! when we first came, we were pestered by the locals to give them cash for a 5 seconds direction (please beware of them and not accept their directions if you are reaching the hotel at night since they tend to loiter around there). we were quite scared afterwards and Mariam offered to ask hamza to pick us up everytime we go out at night. superb! and she replies so fast - I am so wowed. it's located in the heart of the medina! though it seems like it's in the alleyways, that's how all riads in Marrakech work! the room was super clean and the toilet was HUGE. Hot water was abundant - which was something we didn't get in our 2 other riads. love this place. highly recommend. felt like I got more than what I paid. (P.S. if the next day you feel like your items went missing, no they aren't. The service staff were just so cute to put it inside the wardrobe and drawers for you to prevent it from being dirty! So just check there!) Love this place. :)

not the riad's fault of course, but there are some locals loitering outside, waiting for you to fall into their trap and get money out of you! that's something to be careful of!

The host of Riad Iklil was wonderful, along with all the staff. They treated us like family. The host arranged tours for us, walked us to the transport point, and made sure we had all we needed. We had breakfast and dinner there every night, the food was excellent, and made with love. We met some lovely folks during our stay, and I would recommend you to stay here if you want to have a "home away from home". A very BIG THANKS to Mohsine and all the wonderful staff that run the place! Would definitely stay here again, it would be our first choice.

Just needed brighter lamps in the rooms.

The breakfast is Moroccan, and good. Having it on the rooftop terrace is great! Nice opportunity to meet other guests and chat with staff.

I can see how the casbah might be intimidating -- I can't imagine it in the U.S. without being dangerous; but here it just DOESN'T feel that way. Except for the motorbikes in the narrow alleys ... just keep situational awareness. If you get lost in the Casbah, no sweat - just ask anyone, inquiringly, "Sidi bin Sliman?" and they will helpfully point you in the right direction. Don't accept the many offers to guide you - or if you do, accept that no matter what you may hear initially, they will expect a tip. This is not a fact about Riad Iklil, just about the Casbah.

It was very very clean and the rooms although small very aesthetic. The Riad was calm and very central. The staff was extraordinary nice and friendly.

The information Booking.com said that the Riad is going to remove the money from my bank account. We spent the night there and in the morning they told me that they don’t charge my account and I have to pay cash or by card. We didn’t have any cash with us anymore so I was forced to pay by card which cost 6% more. We weren’t informed about that in advance and left confused.

The welcoming receptionist was super super helpful and nice. They even explain to you the map of the medina when they're checking you in. They alse welcome you with some (very delicious) tea and biscuits. Then they show you around the riad and they get you to your room. Which just smells beautiful and is super clean too! The riad is super quiet and the vibe is so soothing. It's a very good place to go home to and relax after a long day in the busy streets of Medina. The breakfast was very good too and the terrace is super cosy and well kept, i suggest to do excursions with Riad, we had very wonderful expérience with them 😍

The staff were wonderful, very helpful, kind, friendly and professional. The rooftop restaurant was very picturesque, no views, but lovely. The courtyard was charming.

The location, it was close to everything in the media, however the approach was quite daunting at first, through the dusty back alleys and tunnels, however we got used to it and found our way around, so don't let it put you off. The plunge pool is not a swimming pool as expected and was extremely cold but very pretty.

First of all the location of the Riad is pretty good. It's not easy to find it, but therefore it is in a calm neighborhood and you can't hear any noise from the streets. It is a beautiful place, very neat, and we enjoyed the rooftop the most as it is so cozy and pretty! The breakfast was also really nice, and sometimes we had an early activity planned but the staff was so nice to make sure we could have breakfast earlier. The staff was always really helpfull, but we like to thank Hamza who was very nice. He answered our questions, he showed us the way to the riad and the atm, he brought us to the taxi AND he makes the best tea!!

Everything was great, the only comments I have are the beds. I woke up every day with a stiff and sore body because the mattress was very hard.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much, they helped by sourcing a charger for our phones as ours did not work with the adaptor, booked an evening meal and arranged our transportation. We were made to feel very welcome and to treat our property as our home, and it was a home from home. The food at the Riad was exceptional and the friendly atmosphere certainly left a positive impact. Would certainly stay here again.

Was a little suprised by the lack of privacy between the bedroom and the bathroom, which can leave you a little more familiar with your travelling partner than would have liked, however with a little negotiation this did not have a huge impact on the overall experience. I was slightly disappointed that we were unable to get refreshments or anything to eat while waiting to leave for the airport. We did not want to risk getting lost in the Medina and then missing our flights, so decided not to venture out on the last day, but assumed that we could get refreshments and food at the Riad, If we had known, then we would have pre-arranged, but was not aware, and was a last minute decision.

Clean well maintained riad with a spa size pool. Staff were very friendly and willing to help. Modern decor, so presents as much a hotel as a traditional riad in Marrakech. Breakfasts are quite good and the one dinner we got was exceptional. Still one of the best meals we got in Morocco. Terrace is very comfy and secluded, no view. Overall safe, hospitable, clean.

Staff were very willing to help, but things fell thru the cracks a few times; train station pick up, pre-arranged early breakfast (to accommodate tour that day). Riad is down a lengthy, kind of stinky, dead end alley, but it seems most riads are.

The tranquility of the riad, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the souks. The riad was spotlessly clean, looked quite new, everything freshly painted, bed was comfy, the air conditioning was great, the shower was good. The plunge pool was refreshing after a busy day walking around. The breakfast was slightly different every day, different types of pancakes/breakfast breads , with jam, nut butter, honey, butter, olives and cheese and always plenty of bread, fresh juice and tea or coffee. You can order other meals which are good value and very tasty.

We got a bit lost getting to the riad when we first arrived, but after you had been once you could find your way back.
