A nice home away from home

Riad Ajmal is a comfortable and convenient home away from home. I really like the cleanliness of the space and the terrace. My room was very spacious and nicely decorated. The staff were polite and friendly the only thing I think needs improving is the breakfast options some days it was good but other days it felt like the food had been prepared the day before and not so fresh.

Perfect intro into Medina Riad living in Marrakech

Nice location, on a quiet part with access to be deeper into the medina. The staff is really friendly & so welcoming. Rooms are typical size for a small riad, comfortable beds and good water pressure which is sometimes hard to find! Would come back for sure, a nice place to stay and a reasonable price.

Riad within the Medina walls

Not a great start when the expected transfer to the Riad wasn’t at the airport so had to get a taxi. The Riad itself was great but the management of the place was ‘relaxed’ to say the least. Stayed for 3 nights. No breakfast on day one, our room wasn’t turned down during our stay and the rooftop terrace was in need of a clean/tidy. Didn’t spoil our trip but the Riad could be great with a little more attention to detail.

Loved our stay and especially the staff!

Myself and a friend stayed in Riad Ajmal for a week this August and had the most amazing time. The neighbourhood feels very safe and quiet. It’s peaceful even though it’s only a walk away from the centre of the city. Our room was a good size and lovely, the A/C was amazing and we especially loved the pool too for cooling down when it got so hot. Our three main hosts made us feel so comfortable in the riad, extremely safe and well looked after. Every morning we were treated to large breakfast in the courtyard by Ahmad, even when we had to leave very early for day trips. He was really friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Fatima cooked amazing food for us- the best tagine we had the entire week (and that’s saying something). And Bety was just an all round star, taking care of us, welcoming us and sharing some of her culture with us. Our relationship with the riad staff and time spent in the riad made our marrrakech trip so special- unlike any other holiday. We would definitely recommend to anyone and we can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful Riad, perfect service

In the old city, around 10 mins walk from the main square, and in a quiet neighborhood on the new town/station/Airport side of the Medina. The hotel is a island of calm in a bustling town. Rooms are traditionally decorated and comfortable. Lovely roof terrace with a view of the Koutoubia mosque minaret. Mustafa the manager and the rest of the staff could not be more welcoming and helpful. Service was excellent. Highly recommended.

Excellent traditional Riad!

We loved our stay at Riad Ajmal. It is a beautiful, traditional Riad... a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech! I particularly liked its location. The Riad is down a rabbit warren of little streets, which is exactly what we wanted, a real experience of the Medina. It is also perfectly located for the souks, restaurants, and within walking distance of the main square and the Koutoubia Mosque. It is also situated very near a taxi rank, which made all our transfers and trips out easy. Mustafa and Bushran (sorry for the spelling) were perfect hosts and made the whole stay very comfortable. The breakfasts were delicious, especially the pancakes, yum! Would definitely recommend and would love to go back one day.

Underwhelming

Chose a Riad to stay in on our second visit to Marrakech but unfortunately it didn't help make our trip memorable.Things got off to a bad start when there was no pick up from the airport despite booking it weeks in advance and sending a reminder email the week before.Repeated calls to the Riad went unanswered until a call back to say 'Had you booked?'!! Waited 45 minutes in the end and to make it worse, there was no reference to it or an apology when we arrived.Considering there was only one other person there not sure how you lose track.Free Wi-Fi is included however, signal was only there when you first enter the room.We had booked a double room which turned out to be twin mattresses joined together and one half was very uncomfortable with squeaky springs.The towels and robe were scratchy and also the lighting in the rooms/bathroom overall was very dim. Breakfast was simple but the exact same thing every day,despite there being numerous bakeries in the local area.It would have been nice to have a different type of bread or some pastries.Some positives- the 2 female staff members are very friendly and helpful,especially as we hardly came across the manager.The place is nice and quiet compared to the hectic streets in the surrounding area and not difficult to find once you get your bearings.It is approximately a 15 minute walk to the main square and there are many shops and cafes along the way.The coffee served at breakfast was very good. Overall,not going to return

Medina Riad

This medina Riad is well placed for exploring the souks and old town. If you are looking for an authentic Riad experience this is perfect- the staff are very helpful and accommodating. We were swept up in the hustle of the medina and went off early one morning without telling them we wouldn't be around for breakfast- only to find out the next day they had been waiting for us all morning! This is an example of the kindness we experienced- and also a note to future travellers, if you won't be there for breakfast let them know! Def recommend staying at Ajmal.

Perfect location - a hidden gem

A basic but clean, friendly Riad. The biggest surprise was the rooftop seating area, and the super-cute domed Spa cubicle (also on the roof) where we undertook hamman. The in-house dinner was declicious, and the Manager was really helpful with tips/arranging taxis. Breakfast was plentiful and always served with grace and a smile. The place is a bit tricky to find, but easy peasy once you get your bearings. Perfect for our 4 night stay as the location is fantastic...the only real downside was no hanging space for clothes in the bedroom (only shelves) and don't expect more than pretty basic amenities, but it has a good shower and fine as a base from which to explore the surrounding areas and absolutely perfect for a quiet night on the roof terrace after a good dinner, or for some spa treatments ('local' hamman, massage). Would certainly stay here again.

A real Moroccan experience!

We were greeted by Mustafa who made us feel very welcome. His staff were fantastic and made us the most amazing tea! The Riad is situated a 8 minute walk from the Souks, perfect if you want to explore the city and have a real Moroccan experience! Mustafa also organised our excursion which were totally hassle free. Couldn't recommend staying here any higher. Had an awesome trip and slightly fell in love with Marrakech. The Riad is also beautiful with a view of the Atlas Mountains from the room where there are sofas and seating.

This riad is a wonderful escape from the busy souks which are just around the corner! Lovely staff, mint tea on arrival, spotlessly clean and always happy to help.

Tranquility

On going up the dull passageway to the riad we were wondering what on earth we had booked! But once the door was open it was a complete transformation of calm and tranquillity. Totally Moroccan feel and greeted by Mustapha who served us Moroccan mint tea. Loved our room and the food was awesome. We were close to the souks and not too far from the madina square or the Tanneries. Marrakech is a crazy place but it was always nice to get back to the calmness of the riad. We done lots of walking that week as well as visiting the waterfalls and going to atlas mountains.Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again.

Beautiful beyond words…

I wasn’t sure what to expect before arriving even though it had very good reviews but this Riad turned out to be a beautiful gem that really made our trip extra special. Very pretty, peaceful and tranquil in the middle of a lively area and within walking distance to most attractions. The room we were in was lovely and spacious and the whole riad is cosy and very clean-it was sometimes hard to leave the roof terrace (and its wonderful views) and go out and explore Marrakech ) The staff (Mustafa and Ishraq) were warm, super lovely and helpful with absolutely EVERYTHING. Breakfast was always delicious and we had a wonderful dinner there for our last evening- I am vegan but had no problem with meals at all. I will definitely be coming back to this beautiful place…Thank you Mustafa and Ishraq for making our stay super special….

Absolutely loved the Riad and the owners made us feel very welcome and at home! You have everything you need for a good holiday.... Including a nice terasse to glaze at stars at night. The Riad is very cozy and nicely decorated, with lots of traditional / old features. The room A/C was a great relief after a long day in the streets at 43 degrees :)! Absolutely recomended and we will definetely visit again!
