This was the second time I stayed there - also in August last year. The place is lovely and in an excellent location. The staff and owners were really helpful and breakfast and service was excellent. Highly recommend it

This Riad is just wonderful. We stayed last weekend with friends and were delighted from the moment we arrived. Lovely staff who are so helpful and welcoming. A beautiful place to stay good food, great rooms and all just 10mins for the centre of town. Can't recommend it highly enough.

Wow - what a find. Upon arrival using the Riad's transfer service we were lead up a wide alley way (Derb) and were met by a nondescript door in a wall, looking like many other Riad's in the city. When the door was opened our first greeting was the incredible fragrance which set the mood for our stay. Even though... More

Tucked away in a small quiet laneway, but easy to find, and close to the souks and artisan centre, the Riad Alwachma was a sympathetically renovated Moroccan family residence that had been transformed into a small and intimate hotel ..... If you are wanting a Moroccan experience in a traditional and charming setting, with delicious traditional (or western food), a... More

Riad Alwachma is not what the pictures and description make you believe. The riad and terrace are very small. The room we occupied was tiny with barely enough room between the walls and the bed. The bathroom was also very small, very dark and uninviting. Our 2 day/3 night trip to Marrakech was a last-minute excursion from the Riviera where... More

Danielle, The room sizes are given on the site as well as the description of the riad. You want to come when we were full, you forget to write that we have found another riad ... We have offered a room upstairs bigger you do not want! We do our best for our customers, and I think that reversing a... More

This is a really nice little Riad in a great location in the medina. After a day out seeing the city, the pretty interior courtyard and friendly staff make you feel like you're coming home. The rooms are very well decorated, and also comfy and spacious, with lovely bathrooms. We ate dinner twice in the dining room. You order your... More

This is a very welcoming Riad in the heart of the Medina. The staff were all very attentive and could not do enough for us to make our stay an enjoyable one. The courtyard and terrace were lovely and breakfast was excellent, setting s up well for the day ahead. The owners were charming and have done a great job... More

I wanted to thank everyone at Riad Alwachma for a truly wonderful holiday. The Riad is beautiful, with comfortable bedrooms, a delightful terrace, excellent breakfasts, but most importantly, exceptionally friendly and welcoming service. All the staff worked hard to help us have a memorable stay, which we did, and I will certainly recommend it to everyone. Thank you so much.... More

Liked the location. Really like the rooms. Great common sitting area with fireplace. Best Reception. Location was perfect for me but might turn off those used to chic neighbourhoods. For us, it was a perfect place as we walked to most places recommended by friends and by guide books.
