Monique was the epitome of a gracious hostess - offering excellent meals, welcome advice about navigating and negotiating the medina, and a lovely tranquil setting. Only one caveat - you may not want to leave! More

We enjoyed our stay with Monique at the Riad Zara. It is in a great location, in the eastern part of the Medina away from the craziness of Djemaa-el-Fna. Monique decorated this Riad very tastefully and you can see her personal touch here. She is ready to share any advice and tips on Marrakech but also knows how to be... More

This is my second visit to Riad Zara and Monique. This time I was as pleased as last time. The Riad is situated near Bab Aileen (this is a gate) and in a quiet area. As quiet as it gets in the Marrakech medina. Monique is as always the perfect host and friend. Stay here if you need a "home"... More

This Riad is a beautiful oasis among the busy-ness of the Medina. Monique has thought of everything and is a wonderful hostess, providing helpful informaiton for the first time traveler to Marrakech. When you return from a long day, you feel like you're returning home. I felt taken care of and I was sad to leave. I highly recommend this... More

You can't go wrong with this riad: tastefully decorated, authentic atmosphere, impecable service and very well informed owner. One mention thought: this riad is not in the middle of the Medina but rather near one of the gate, in the middle of an authentic neighbourhood. Please consider about 15-20 minutes pleasant walk in order to reach Jemaa el-Fnaa. You will... More

I keep coming back to Marrakech and... Moniques oasis in Marrakech. I love to stay in Riad Zara and if in anyway I can persuade you that this is where you should stay let me try. Most important Monique makes it a RIAD - you're in a home with the kindest host possible. When you come back from your adventures... More

Riad Zara is amazing, the place is decorated with great taste in an authentic Morrocan style. The rooms are very clean. Monique is very nice, and helpful and she helped us to organize an unforgettable trip in the Atlas mountain to visit a Berber village. The experience was a five star one. Murad is a combination of nice, helpful, handy,... More

My husband, daughter, daughter's friend and small son, and I stayed for a week at this Ryad, which we found to provide excellent accommodation with good food and friendly and helpful staff. The Ryad is tucked away in the Medina and is, initially, a bit difficult to find, but we came to enjoy returning to it in the late evening... More

What a lovely place! Riad Zara is tucked away down an alley about a 15 minute walk from Djemaa el Fna. The walk to the square is an amazing experience as you pass narrow alleyways, people, shops, noises, lovely smells of food cooking, more people and take in the experience of being in Marrakech. Monique is a great host who... More
