Reviews of Riad Dar Azul

Very friendly staff and superbe cuisine! Highly recommend!

Our host was kind, flexible and trustworthy.

Nice location in the neighborhood,close to one of the many gates into the Medina. Facilities ,all that U need .. Staff amazing... Nice breakfast..

Hospitable host. Good breakfast. Transport arrangement.

Not enough lighting. Not enough electrical outlets.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Oussama made sure that we‘d had a nice stay. We had early tours so we needed to have breakfast earlier. That wasn’t a problem with them, very considerate. We appreciate it!

Don't miss dinner at Dar Azul– we really recommend it!

Family friendly riad.

We very much liked the hospitality of the host Oussama & his team

The lock of the entry door was hard to operate and the little safe should be retained inside a wall or welded to the wardrobe.

the staff was really great especially (ismail), he helped a lot and was very kind on top of that, if you have any problem or ask for information, just ask him, he will give you help and recommendations for restaurants and everything.

A big thanks to Dar Azul team for making our stay comfortable.

The staff was great. They helped us get around the city if we needed it.

Friendly staff, delicious breakfast and dinner. Overall, great stay.

The riad is very traditional and also very clean, with a pool and a stunning rooftop in which you can also have your breakfast (traditional Moroccan and very delicious). The position is good, even if we were all women, we felt extremely safe even in the night… (one night we even comed back a 3am), there is also a very traditional market in the neighborhood, with a lot of amazing fruit, where you can breath the real spirit of this amazing city. Even if the structure, the position and all was perfect, the best part has been the staff which was amazing and very nice. Oussama, a member of the staff, has been an amazing host, giving us advices and helping us in a lot of different ways (he even come with me to withdrawal money from the cash machine, helped us to find restaurants, cut for us watermelon di that we buy at the market and also packed our breakfast in the morning when we have to leave at 6 am) Me, and also all my group of friends which were with me, highly recommend this riad, not only for the beauty of the structure, but also for kindness, helpfulness and the amazing hospitality of the staff, which helped us to enjoy even more the beauty of Marrakech! When we’ll come back to Marrakech we are sure that we’ll stay again in this amazing place! Last we want to thank again the staff, you have all been amazing❤️

It was all perfect

Fantastic stay at Riad Dar Azul in Marrakech! I had a fantastic experience at Riad Dar Azul in Marrakech. The staff were incredibly friendly and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived. The service was top-notch – nothing was too much trouble. The team went above and beyond every day to make my stay perfect. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the riad itself was beautiful and peaceful. The breakfast was delicious, and the rooms were comfortable and cleaned every morning. I highly recommend Riad Dar Azul to anyone looking for a luxurious and authentic experience in Marrakech!

The staff Is very kind and helpful.

The riad organised the tour to Ourika and to the desert but the info were not very completed, I suggest to give detailed information about the tours

STAFF

LOCATION BIT FAR FROM JAMA EL FANA OTHERWISE GOOD LOCATION FOR TRAIN STATION AND EASY EXCESS TO OLD MADINA

A beautiful place located in a privileged area inside the Medina, very calm but close enough to the souks. If you are looking for the real Moroccan experience, this is your Riad. The food was delicious and the rooms, very clean and comfortable. With a nice little hamman and beautiful terrace upstairs, you can enjoy the sunsets of Marrakesh. I would like to highlight the attention of Ousamma, who was not only a great host but a very attentive person at all times with us. Would recommend without a doubt.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. If you are planning trips through tours then you might get pickups 2 mins from Riad.

**Disappointing Stay – Not as Advertised** We stayed at this riad in Marrakech for 5 nights and, unfortunately, it fell short of our expectations on many fronts. Firstly, hygiene was a concern – we encountered **three cockroaches** during our stay, which was extremely unpleasant. The rooms lacked **natural light**, and to make things worse, they were **not soundproof** at all. We were **repeatedly asked by staff to keep our voices down**, which made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome in a space we had paid for. The **bathroom light was broken**, and despite reminding the staff **three days in a row**, it was never fixed. Basic maintenance should not require this much follow-up. Breakfast was another letdown. We were told it would be a **varied traditional Moroccan breakfast**, but each morning we received **the same thing**: a crepe or fried bread with **flavored yogurt or a piece of date cake**. For a six-day stay, this became very monotonous. At checkout, we encountered a **payment issue**. Despite the listing on Booking.com stating that the property **accepts card payments**, we were told the **machine wasn't working**. After some research, we discovered this has been a **recurring issue** for other guests – something that feels intentionally deceptive. The **location is not ideal**, especially if you're looking to explore the Medina. It’s about a **25-minute walk** to the center, and we found the walk at night uncomfortable due to **locals staring**, which made us feel unsafe. Unfortunately, we didn’t read the 1-star reviews before booking – but in hindsight, they were accurate. I would not recommend this riad to other travelers. There are better, more honest accommodations in Marrakech.
