I had the most wonderful experience at Le Petit Joyau in Marrakech! From the moment I arrived, Walid made me feel incredibly welcome. His kindness and attention to detail ensured that every guest felt special, and he went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The riad itself was absolutely stunning—tastefully decorated, very clean, and full of charm. Its location was perfect, being close to all the main city attractions, making it easy to explore the vibrant streets of Marrakech. I highly recommend Le Petit Joyau for anyone looking for a beautiful, comfortable, and welcoming place to stay in this amazing city.

Friendly and welcoming staff with Hamza, excellent room, nice breakfast, great courtyard. Staff helped walk me to the currency exchange shop which was much appreciated

The shower didn't have enough hot water during my 1 night stay. Also minor, but I would have liked to know there was a 2nd round to the breakfast upfront, as it wasn't clear and I just left without eating the full breakfast initially

Everything was great, staff is friendly and accommodations are clean. Stop wasting your time in searching for other options, this is a great deal!

Excellent Riad, very nicely decorated, in a very good part of town (Kasbah) - just 10min walking from the main square and away from the crowds. You'll find amenities (supermarkets, exchange, restaurants) nearby and plenty of good restaurants on the way to the city centre. The room was very comfortable and spacious, with great quality towels, a comfortable bed, and efficient air conditioning. Breakfast was also great, served at the rooftop, and with plenty of options (although I would have liked some fruit). The room as well as all common areas were very clean and pleasant. Bathroom had a good selection of toiletries and good supply of hot water at all times, even on an overcast day. Staff is very attentions - even if there may be a slight language barrier at times, and they also didn't speak French. They were kind enough to store our luggage on the last day, and we could also use the common area restroom after check-out. Book it with peace of mind of having chosen an excellent place to stay in Marrakech, for quality, price and location.

The room was quite dark, with small windows and dim lighting. The absence of shower curtains is a pet peeve of mine, and causes a small flood every time you shower (although I respect it might be a cultural difference). Staff is very kind and helpful, but also very laidback. When I mentioned to the owner that we'd found a cheaper desert tour online, I got a small avalanche of 13 sequential messages trying to convince me it was worth paying double for the tour arranged by them - one would have sufficed.

A little piece of tranquility close to the hustle and bustle of Marrakech! This Riad is tucked away close to the El Badi Palace within easy walking distance of all attractions. As you’d expect the rooms are set around the central courtyard and are comfortable with all the expected amenities. The roof terrace is a real bonus where breakfast was served and we watched the sun rise above the palace. A great place to unwind and relax after a day of sightseeing before venturing out again for dinner. Willie was our host for our short visit and was super friendly giving us useful tips and hints about Marrakesh and the dos and donts! He made us really feel comfortable and at home. I would definitely recommend this Riad!

Nothing!

Great location, very friendly welcome from the staff (apologies I forgot his name but he is from Fez!) very helpful keeping our bags and loved the Moroccan tea. Rooftop was lovely. Perfect location for getting to sights and for getting taxis. Overall great value for money.

Breakfast was good but would have been good to have some fruit/yogurt options. Noise from the mosque can't be helped and the nature of the Riad experience is that you can hear other guests.

"I had a wonderful stay at Le Petit Joyau Riad! The riad itself is stunning, with beautiful decor and a tranquil atmosphere. My room was spotless and comfortable and had everything needed. Breakfast was also a highlight - delicious and homemade every morning. But what truly made the stay special was Walid's exceptional hospitality. He was incredibly attentive, kind, and welcoming, making all guests feel right at home. I highly recommend Le Petit Joyau for a memorable experience in Marrakech!"

Everything was great :)

We arranged our transfer taxi with the Riad before arriving which was a brilliant choice as the taxi driver found us at the airport, took us directly to the nearest street to the Riad (given that there are myriad lanes and passages to walk to find any of the Riads!), and we were met by our host Willi (Waleed) who was extremely gracious, knowledgable and accommodating. Willi's English was (thankfully) brilliant and he talked easily with us about the Riad. The Riad is near the Royal Palace and we were asked to make sure we closed the main door quietly - reflecting the peace and quiet of the immediate neighbouring area. Given that this was our first trip to Morocco, Willi gave us tips for enjoying Marrakesh generally and described Morrocan hospitality, how everyone will welcome us as family (including the many vendors on the streets of the Medina!) and he was the epitome of his words - a truly wonderful, welcoming host. We couldn't have had a better start to our stay in Marrakesh. Our room (no 4) was stylish and comfortable. The bed - which we initially thought firm - gave us 2 brilliant night's sleep, so no complaints there! The bathroom was just lovely, soft towels and gorgeously fragranced soap and body cream. Breakfast is available on the roof terrace, and was ample! Bread, pastries, coffee, tea, fresh juice, jams, the option of eggs too. All served at the time we required and no rush or cut off time given which we appreciated after a lazy start to the day. We also arranged lunch for one of our days and enjoyed a fantastic lamb tagine which was so obviously made with love. Just wonderful. Thank you Riad le Petit Joyau!!

Nothing! The Riad is exceptional. A tip for travelling in winter however: the January nights in Marrakesh are cold. But we asked for and were provided with an additional heater for the room so we were warm and comfortable :)

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such warmth and hospitality that I immediately felt at home. The riad itself is a true gem, beautifully decorated with an authentic Moroccan touch, but what truly sets it apart is the exceptional service. A special mention must go to Walid, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. His kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail were remarkable. He was always ready to help, offering great recommendations and ensuring that every moment was memorable. We can’t recommend Riad Le Petit Joyau enough—and if you stay here, make sure to say hello to Walid! He truly makes this place special. We will definitely be back!

Perfect small riad within the Medina but a bit away from the crowds. The room was clean and comfortable, probably the nicest linens we have seen in 2 weeks throughout Morocco. Breakfast was amazing but it was the staff that really made this place exceptional. Hazma and Willy were super helpful and made our journey easy. Marrakesh can be daunting especially for English speaking tourists. And they made sure we had everything we needed including helping get a SIM card that actually worked deep within the maze of the Medina and meeting us at the gates to find the property when we arrived late at night. A big thank you to both of them!

No complaints
