A very nice Riad at the center of Marrakech, with a very nice and polite staff. We really enjoyed our stay and hope we can come back soon again! I definitely recommend it!

Very Moroccan hotel.

It had a lot of character and is very typical Moroccan style hotel. The personal were very friendly and helpful. It is close to the main square, Jemaa Elfna. You have to walk down a long alley to get to the hotel. They have two buildings and the second one is down another alley and the room there was not as nice.

10/10 In Every Way

Truly a gem, right in the heart of the old city of Marrakech. (Medina) you are right near to the main square, and the Cafe de France, which is the main meeting point for most tours. The staff is beyond amazing, and the food is great. Zakaria is one of the best I’ve ever come across, and that’s coming from someone who travels a lot. All in all, if you are looking for an authentic Moroccan experience, this is the perfect place.

basic amenities

we were a large group and some were in the main hotel however some were round the corner in another building, including me. The rooms here were very very basic. I was given a padlock to lock the door. the doors were hard to close and just a simple latch, no wardrobe, hairdryer, bedside table, no lighting in the dark alleyway to get there - had to use my phone light. The room was spotlessly clean though, the shower was hot and i had clean bedding and towels everyday. two of our group felt they couldn't stay there and had to leave to find more suitable accommodation with more amenities. for a small uplift you can get full 5 star hotels very close by.

Great Riad. Amazing service / staff they made me feel like a queen. Property is in a great location in the old town. Easy to escape the chaos of the old town.

All the staff at Riad Jemaa El Fna & Spa were exceptionally courteous especially Abdul and Oussama. Wish I could give more than 5 stars just for them. They were informative, kind, helpful gracious and protective. They saw to all our needs and give us really good recommendations. The Riad itself is gorgeous, ideally situated just off the medina in old Marrakech. I highly recommend staying here while in Marrakech.

All in all a good choice, but the rooms are small and you may be placed in an alternative building without notice. The staff is very friendly, but you will be hard pressed to get recommendations for restaurants, etc. that are not affiliated with the hotel.

Awesome experience

Our stay at Riad Jemma El Fna was great since the first moment. Upon arriving to the hotel our driver wasn't able to get us to the door because the street was closed due to some street market or something, so he called the hotel and they sent someone to pick us and get us there safely. All the staff was so attentive, helpful and welcoming during our stay! They even gave us a couple of tips regarding where to go & which restaurant to attend. Our room was cleaned daily & fresh towels provided, the riad was spotless. The daily breakfast was very well served, different options available each day and more than enough to get us ready for a full day exploring the city. No doubt if we ever come back to Marrakech, we will be staying here again.

2/10 Poor

The pics are a total catfish. The pool was tiny, the room was tiny. The pipes were wrapped on aluminum foil. The toilet water was shut off. I do not recommend.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

I like only location of the Riad. Their service is very bad and rooms are worst. Small, darty, We booked 4 rooms. All bathrooms have bad smell. All rooms are very small. Breakst is kind of okay. But portion size is small. We have to ask every time for each item and then only they provide with unhappy face. If somebody wants to stay at this location then this is good but not good as a hotel.

2/10 Poor

They told me there were bedbugs in my room and transferred me to another hotel that was poor quality compared to what I booked. The staff at the other hotel Safran and Cannelle were rude and violent with me when I changed my mind about staying there and decided to leave. Jemma Elfna was not helpful when the situation got violent and the owner tried to fight me

Beautiful riad right off the jemma el fna square. This puts in it in 15-30 min walk from all the main attractions. Hotel staff are wonderful (speak many languages - I heard french, arabic, english there might be others). They will sit you down upon arrival to see how long you'll be in town, recommend and book if you like restaurants depending on what you're looking for, recommend and book if you like excursions, and just make sure you have a quality stay and see and experience as much as possible within your means. They'll answer any questions, and book transport as well if you choose. Only caveat was that our room was level one closest to the front desk and we heard all the coming and going traffic. That being said usually by midnight it was quiet through around 8am, so adjust your sleep schedules accordingly or use headphones/white noise like I did and you'll be fine.

The place is very dated and it’s not maintained well. We booked the “ best room” according to them and we were not very satisfied with the condition of the room. It was too dark and dated. There were cracks and stains on the floor and and the bed was old and crooked. The pool is way to small for swimming and since it’s located in the lobby it’s way too crowded. The breakfast is okay. The staff are very friendly but you can tell they don’t have hospitality training. I wouldn’t go back.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans ce Riad exceptionnel à plusieurs niveaux : son emplacement idéal tout près de la place Jemaa El Fna et malgré cela, pas un bruit dans le Riad. Le Riad est très beau, très bien entretenu, les chambres sont belles et propres....et le magnifique petit déjeuner dans le Roof Top au soleil commence bien votre journée. Une mention très spéciale pour la qualité d'accueil, de conseil et d'accompagnement de la part des équipes qui s'occupent absolument de tout. Je citerai particulièrement Faissal, mais aussi son collègue Hamza. Tous les deux ont été à nos petits soins que ce soit dans le Riad mais aussi dans ce programme topissime qu'ils nous on concocté et pour lequel nous avons pu profiter sans stress des endroits incontournables (désert Agafay, Majorelle, YSL, la Koutoubia et ses jardins, Spa et massage....) et se laisser libre cours le reste du temps libre. Je recommande sans hésitation ce Riad, et je recommande de vous adresser à Faissal et Hamza, vous ne serez pas déçus. En ce qui nous concerne, nous reviendrons très certainement

Fomos enganados

O Riad é muito bonito, tem um rooftop fantastico. A localização do riad é ótima, mesmo no centro da Medina, perto dos souks. Isto faz com que seja um local com muitos turístas e movimentação mesmo durante a noite o que acaba por ser bom em Marrakesh. O pessoal do Riad é muito simpático, deu imensas dicas para passar a semana em marrakesh, como quanto devemos pagar por um táxi, os restaurantes, sites para comprar bilhetes para atrações, o que não devemos fazer em marrakesh. No entanto a piscina não parecia muito limpa, os lençóis da cama pareciam mal lavados, a casa de banho não estava completamente higienizada. Neste Riad fomos enganados, nobre nos cobraram 60 MAD por dois cafés (perto dos 6 euros) no entanto no terminal de multibanco colocaram 60 EUR e não reparamos, só apenas mais tarde quando não pudemos regressar ao Riad, por isso tenham por favor atenção para não acontecer convosco.
