    While booking it says “mini bar included” but we didn’t have any mini bar, not even drinking water, had to buy from near by shop. We also had to pay 100MDH as “tourist tax” which wasn’t mentioned while booking. Otherwise the stay was fine.

    It’s a nice cozy space with a beautiful terrace, walking distance from some of the main attractions.

    AC in the room could have been a little better for the hotter nights. Bit tricky to find, make sure you call them when you’re nearby!

    Riad Merstane was a truly beautiful stay. Something so noticeable was how quickly it felt like home. Rachid’s casual and caring attitude combined with a high standard of service made for such a warm experience. All of the staff were brilliant - with a special mention to Mohamed the night guardian, who made us feel so safe and welcome throughout our stay, as well as providing friendly chats. Rachid also gave us some great recommendations of things to do in town. The room was gorgeous, spacious yet cosy with a traditional feel, and clean. The riad itself is a stunning example, a true oasis in the chaos of the medina. I wish I could be having a delicious breakfast there every morning. The interiors have such a homely feel, after a while it’s like you’re staying in a distant family member’s place. Well located around a 20 minute walk through the souks to the main square. We loved staying here and you will too!

    We arrived at night time, was really hard to find it! We lost like one hour tried to find the place! It’s safe, but if you dont know where to go, you can feel scary once the streets are dark.. They could put more signs on the streets or provide better intructions

    The staff were friendly, nice accomodation, very clean! Around 15-30 minutes from main places Breakfast was good too

    The location was a bit rough. To get to the souqs and shops we had to walk for about 10 minutes along some rougher looking streets with quite a bit of traffic. This made it a bit harrowing, getting to and from the riad when we would go out for the day. It was even worse in the evening when we'd go out for dinner and come back in the dark.

    The staff was very kind and helpful. The rooms were nice and quite spacious. The bathrooms were some of the nicest we've had since arriving in Morocco. The common area and terrace of the riad were lovely.

    Nothing- it was great!

    Riad Merstane was the perfect place to stay in Marrakech! Rachid was the perfect host, he couldn't do enough for us. We were collected from the airport, shown to the Riad, given a map and advice for local restaurants and sights. The Riad was beautiful with a great roof terrace and a lovely room- just a short walk into the centre of the old town. Breakfast was also fantastic. Cannot recommend Riad Merstane enough! If I visit Marrakech again, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here :)

    Lovely Riad with a very kind and friendly host. It’s right in the Medina so feels very authentic. Not easy to find so I’d recommend a shuttle or a taxi driver who knows where it is. Overall it’s a lovely place. My only comment which isn’t a criticism is that it’s in one of the quieter slightly less touristy areas of the Medina. But that also means you’ll get so see some very authentic areas and markets.

    Amazing host rachid and mouhammed were so helpful in guiding you around Marrakech. My fiance actually had an allergic reaction one night and mouhammed walked me the pharmacie to get her medication late at night as it’s easy to get lost in the medina. Inside hotel is also amazing with great rooftop would 100% recommend

    nothing!

    The staff was very nice and welcoming, giving us tips on how to go around the city and what to visit. The room was beautiful and clean, we had clean towels and the bed sheets were clean as well. The breakfast- exceptional! Traditional, tasty and huge ☺️ I’d just recommend to bring some shower gel and earplugs because you can easily wake up at the morning prayer call, but that’s just how it is in Morocco ☺️ We’d definitely come back

    Walls are a little thin so you can hear what’s going on in the hotel. Thankfully it was very chill and there is zero noise from roads etc

    Exceeded expectations. The riad was beautiful, the staff all friendly and the room great. Area was a nice alternative to the Main medina and felt very safe despite the tunnels and quite roads!

    The riad itself was actually quite far out from the centre, still very walk-able, but after a long day out, it did seem to take a while to walk back to the riad. The area itself was less touristy, and had quite a lot of narrow streets and tunnels to get back to our place, so it made us feel a little more uneasy, although we still felt safe and never encountered any problems at all. The riad was quite noisy, sound seemed to travel a lot.

    The bedroom was very spacious, had an air-con unit, and plenty of plug sockets. We also had an on-suite bathroom which was great. The riad itself had a nice roof terrace, a lounge area with books and games, and a pretty central indoor/outdoor style courtyard where we ate breakfast each morning. The hotel manager, Rachid, was absolutely lovely and was also very attentive in ensuring we had everything we needed. He also Whatsapp messaged us prior to our stay to arrange an airport transfer for us.

    It was difficult to connect to the hotel wifi as the walls of the hotel is bit thick. And the bathroom was a bit smelly.

    We like almost everything of the hotel. The staffs are very helpful and great in service. We were lost in the city and we called the hotel, one of the staffs came to pick us. We also ordered dinner at the hotel, the taste of the food was the best we tried in morocco. That was our last day dinner and we regent not to ordered for every meal of us. They breakfast was also good. They freshly served it. There are nicely decorated rooftop and common seating areas also.

    Our whole stay was fantastic. MARAKECH was incredible and it was made better staying at Rhiad Merstane. Breakfast was beautiful, the roof terrace superb and location excellent. The whole team at Merstane were so welcoming and a bug shout out to Rachid who was so helpful with maps, advice and generally a lovey host.

    Mattress was very firm. Approx 20min walk to the main square in the medina (if you don’t get lost which would be an achievement in itself). The Riad is situated down poorly lit alleyways. Some buildings in close proximity to Riad are rubble now (might have been due to the recent large earthquake).

    Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was clean. Air con was very good
