Riad Amira

The road looked nice at first glance, but our room was tiny and cramped and had no daylight to speak of, the bathtub disgusting - my sister wouldn't take a shower at all and she usually isn't squeamish, no efforts were made to make us the least bit comfortable and the location was such that we didn't feel like going out at night at all.

Great stay at this beautiful Riad. Friendly service and great location for walking all the main sights of Marrakech. Only suggestion would be for the staff to be a little less pushy with the in-house dinner, made to feel like it's not really optional.

I would definitely choose to stay here again if I visit Marrakech. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were given advice on how to stay safe, what to look out for and where to go. There was a lovely atmosphere within the Riad from what I can only say was what seemed like chaos outside.A trip to the mountains was organised for us and we felt very safe being taken out by a stranger. Altogether a wonderful experience not to be missed.

This was our first time to Marrakech and we're so glad to have stayed at Riad Amira. We weren't sure what to expect and ended up very happy. The Riad itself is gorgeous. Better than the pictures (make sure to request a specific room if you see one you like in the pictures). Breakfast was included and was MORE than good (we had different types of breads/crepes, homemade jam, yogurt, fruit, orange juice, coffee, tea). Staff was incredibly helpful and friendly - someone at the desk 24/7 and always offering to bring tea or help you plan the day. They were also able to call us a taxi to pick us up at the Riad for a flat rate of $5 (US) around the Medina. You're right next to the Saadian Tombs and about a 20 minute walk to the Koutoubia Mosque. You're not really in the "nice" part of town but we never felt unsafe at the Riad and got to have a traditional Moroccan experience. Wi-Fi throughout the courtyard our room was in and out but when we brought it to the staff's attention they fixed it the next day (as they said they would). If there's an emergency or anything you can always get Wi-Fi with a different router in the area around the reception desk. Our room was spacious (a triple) and very cute.. Only hard part was the shower (head not attached to the wall so you have to hold the hose/shower head yourself). Terrace is lovely and the courtyard is so quiet and relaxing. If you can, take a taxi to the Majorelle Gardens and a day trip to Essaouria! Would stay here again any time!

We made a very short stop in Marrakech- arriving in the evening and leaving early next morning for a Sahara Desert tour. The Riad arranged a driver, but we did have to pay for the ride. Check-in was quick and service was friendly. The room was clean and nice with good wi-if. No complaints from us, but we don’t have much to say since it was such a quick stop!
