Everything. The room, the breakfast, the dinner, the staff. The commentable attention to detail in the buildings renovation, preserving all original features. It gives you such a great vibe you just cannot get enough of it. And I need to mention, do not skip the dinner they offer! On our first night we politely refused the dinner, wanting to go out in a restaurant. But then when we had breakfast the next day we knew we had to eat. It was the best food we had in all our stay in Morocco. and you have the experience of private dining. 5 stars exprerience, perfect service with a very very reasonable price. Also, we travelled with our 3 year old, and we couldn't feel more welcome. I cannot emphasize enough how amazing our experience was. also, it's only 5' walk from the lively souks!

Signage to find the property. But if you give them a call they come out to pick you up, so no real issue.

The ladies were like angels. Hard working and continue with smile. The riad was always clean and it looks like the pictures on Booking. The breakfast was very good and we felt like being at home. Thank you Riad Samsara

Nothing, Just ignore people on streets!

The overall experience at Riad Samsara was absolutely superbe! The location is outside of tourists areas and noise, instead it's in a real Marrakech neighbourhood where local people live, so you can see a bit of the city's real life. The area is calm and quiet and even more inside the Riad. The room was wonderful, it was cleaned every day and with attention to every detail; the typical moroccan breakfast was delicious and prepared fresh every morning, not to mention the meals we had for dinner, absolutely stunning and with that taste of authentic food that you can just find at home, cooked from a local person. Everything, in fact, was perfect thanks to the wonderful women that work there, starting from the house manager to all the others. They prepared our room before the check-in time since we arrived early, also left us breakfast ready when we had to leave early in the morning before the breakfast starting time and they also arranged cake and decorations on my boyfriend's birthday. Everything was really amazing and exceeded our expectations, I can't wait to come back!

There isn't anything I can complaint about.

The riad is beautiful and the attention to detail is wonderful. We felt welcome and at home right away. Anything we needed was taken care of and when we needed to check out early on our final morning they were super accomodating and arranged early breakfast for us before we left. It is a little bit further out but still close enough to walk everywhere, it also meant you got a feel for a more local area of the city which is always a good experience.

You will be shocked in a very positive way when you enter from the street to Riad, it is truly a hidden gem. Its location is amazing since it is close to attractions but at the same time it is far which gives you a chance to explore the real local culture. So I would say the location is optimal! The decoration of riad is amazing and dont forget to read about the history of this riad from the brochure at your room.

Nothing!

We travelled with a baby and this riad really felt like home. Highlights include the lovely decor, chill rooftop, kind staff, the most amazing riad cat. They helped us organise an airport transfer and found a spot for us to hang out bab/ laundry— just a really lovely team. It’s a little way out of the main chaos (15 mins walk) but that’s actually really lovely because it’s quiet and chill.

It was lovely, no issues. Communication before we arrived was a little confusing, but everything else was great.

From the moment we booked, we were taken care of. Bouchra organised our transport from the airport and made special arrangements for us to check in very late in the night due to our flight time. We were warmly greeted on arrival. The room was lovely, very clean and well equipped. The breakfast provided was wonderful and truly one of the best parts of our days as it was so relaxed and peaceful in the riad. We enjoyed the tranquility of the riad so much we also chose to have supper on one of our nights there. After the hecticness of a day at the souks, this was such a good decision. Not only was the food prepared delicious, but the cook took such good care of us to make sure we had everything we needed including lighting the fire when we requested it. On our last day we were allowed to leave our bags at the riad after check out to enjoy our last day in Marrakech and came back for an hour before our taxi arranged by Bouchra arrived to take us to the airport. We asked the lovely cook if she could make us mint tea (the best we had in Marrakech) and she happily obliged and wouldn't even accept payment. We truly felt looked after so well here. They are incredibly warm and welcoming and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We also couldn't finish this review without mentioning the absolute highlight of our stay at Riad Samsara, LUNA the cat! Our 11 year old daughter adores cats and it really felt like Luna the cat takes huge pride in looking after the guests. She seemed to do her rounds of all the guests and whenever she was with us she was SO sweet and cuddly. We can't wait to come back to Riad Samsara to see everyone including beautiful Luna! Thank you all for making our first trip to Marrakech such a wonderful experience! 10/10

Thank you to Bouchra and the team who looked after us and made sure we had a wonderful experience staying at Riad Samsara. Bouchra helped us with a transfer from the railway station and also helped us with an early morning transfer to Casablanca airport. The room was beautiful and so clean and comfortable and the breakfast in the room off the courtyard was a lovely relaxing way to start the day.

Nothing - we loved it.

The decoration and especially the pretty courtyard with Bougainvillea and Mandarin trees. Staff were very helpful, especially when I fell ill. Good shower with plenty of hot water. Being in the centre of where locals live.

Breakfast was good, but a bit too stodgy. Something with eggs would have made it exceptional. It is quite a long walk from the main souks and centre.

Wonderful Riad. Very peaceful. The staff are friendly, attentive and always willing to help. Breakfast is freshly prepared and varied. It can also be made up in advance in the event of early departures for day trips. The whole Riad is spotlessly clean, I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Bonus - Luna the riad's cat is both beautiful and affectionate. She will likely come visit you in your room
