My boyfriend and I spent 6 magical nights ad Dar Les Cigognes in February to celebrate my 50th birthday. From the moment we entered the Riad -- where we were met with the soothing sounds of a gurggling rose petal covered fountain and offered morrocan tea by the utterly charming concierge Pierre -- to the moment we left -- sent...

Unobtrusive, the doorway leads into the most beautiful and traditional riad. With a warm welcome by the staff and Pierre the manager, we were made to feel very at home. The quality of the food and the attentive service was excellent. However, it is the informed, engaging and humorous Pierre who ensured that not only was our stay relaxing, but... More

We had never been to Morocco before and staying at Les Cigognes was a real treat. The experience of entering the riad is magical. From a small door in a plain wall you step into a delightful inner space with a open courtyard planted with orange trees. They were in flower (mid March) and the scent was wonderful. Our rooms...

Stepping into the Dar Les Cigognes is like walking into a calm and cool oasis - at least I relaxed immediately when entering from the hustle and bustle of the medina. Have stayed at several riads but this is my favourite - beautifully designed and still very functional. Especially of note are the many "escape retreats" within the hotel (and... More

Pierre and team were magnifique! Everything about this riad was perfect - the service, the food, the staff, the tips on where to shop, sightsee and eat. The rooftop garden where meals are served is a beautiful spot overlooking dozens of stork nests. The dinner we had there was probably the best we had in Marrakech. A gem!

We were there in May 2013 and it was already getting very hot. This is an absolutely beautiful Hotel. When you enter the Riad its calmness and elegance is captivating, you feel immediately relaxed and at ease, a peaceful retreat from the busy streets. The staff is very friendly and welcomes you with a warm smile, service is impeccable. The... More

We had not booked Dar Les Cigognes, but, due to a boiler problem with our room at Riad Kaiss, we were transferred to this riad directly from the airport. The hotel was very apologetic, and provided a lovely welcome with mint tea and pastries and gave us information about the city. Our room was lovely, facing the inner courtyard. All... More

If you are looking for a luxurious Riad with wonderful, friendly, personal service this is it. Pierre is brilliantly organised, a font of knowledge of where to go, what to see and where to eat or drink and nothing is too much trouble for him or the rest of the staff. I had booked a 5 night stay as a... More

Unassuming entrance to old style Arab home with courtyard and roof top garden- each room very different in style most with Arab/Moor flavor. Hotel is billed as culinary treat with cooking class (which we were not able to book although we were entitled to which I will give them the benefit of the doubt on with communication problem- Unfortunately the...
