Nicely decorated romantic rooms with an excellent breakfast and service. Also possible to have dinner which is certainly recommended to try out. Marrakech is still reasonable priced, but has to watch out that it is not going over the top. More

What a great riad. Initially wary as we were taken down what appeared to be back alleys, but in reality are common moroccan streets! Great welcome. Abdul, Mohammed and Yassine all very helpful and cheerful. Nothing was too much. Breakfast was excellent and views from terrace were great. The best bit was that it was so quiet yet just round...

It was our first time in Marakech and we spend some time ahead to search for the right place. And our choice was right, we loved it a lot. Some edcuation ahead: Whilst most places are described as "Riad" - most of the smaller ones are actually "Dars". A real Riad has 4 garden squares in the court - whilst... More

Wow! What a week. We have just arrived back from Marrakech. Our initial experience was somewhat of a cultural shock. The Riad Altair is situated well within the medina where you get to smell, taste and live amongst the 'real' Morracean people. Abdul and Yassine who looked after us at the Altair were smashing guys. They couldn't do enough for... More

Our trip was for four nights for our wedding anniversary. The Riad was first class as were the staff who couldn't do enough for us. Everything was clean and it was a lovely friendly relaxed atmosphere in a great location. The food in the Riad was delicious (dinner great value for money 20Euros each) and the breakfasts had a different... More

Our first three nights on this trip were spent here and Altair was a beautiful refuge from the hustle of Marrakesh. The 3 hosts were all extremely friendly and helpful and were always there when you wanted them, the roof terrace has gorgeous views of both the city and the Atlas mountains and the delicious breakfast keeps you going all...

We spent 5 nights at the Riad Altair and it was a fantastic experience ! 10mn walking from Djema El Fna, gorgeous decoration, a peaceful and relaxing place in the middle of this crowdy and busy wonderful city. Breakfasts are excellent and balanced. All staff (Abdel, Mohammed, Yassine...) is extremly nice and takes really good care of customers. We strongly... More

I've never written a review before but felt compelled to after our wonderful stay at Riad Altair. The hosts - Abdel, Mohammed and Yassin (?) - were fabulous. They were attentive without being obstrusive. The house keeping staff were great too - friendly, producing gorgeous breakfasts and keeping the riad and the rooms clean. The riad was beautifully decorated and... More

Excelent choice if you're planning to stay near the Jeema el-Fna. Easy to locate, due to the excellent location, it's easy to walk to the main tourist atractions. The riad is fully renovated, the staff is very friendly and polite. Recommended! More
