I enjoyed my stay at Riad Lorsya. The staff and manager were very nice. And walkways near markets to walk and see. Also , very close to the square.

The hotel is incredibly difficult to find, even for an experienced traveler, as it's in the warrens of the medina. Staff had difficulty obtaining a functional key for our room. The A/C in the room was inadequate for the size of the space. Check out was unclear - we ended up just sliding the key under the office door. Room was decorated nicely. Staff did assist us in removing an unwanted "guide" that was harassing us.

Visited in May 2023 and found the place in very close location of the main square Difficult to find fist time but once you get short cut directions from the staff it’s easy then Staff were very useful and they also arranged all my excursions and bookings for agadir Nice quiet place where you don’t hear music blasting at night Would definitely stay again in this place

The service and food (breakfast and 3 course dinner) was especially good and exceptional value. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The riad is very clean and the room comfortable. Rooftop terrace was lovely at breakfast or to chill out after a long day out. Great location. Access was a bit daunting through the alleyway but got used to it after a few days.

A perfectly lovely stay!!
The riad is very well located, a five minute walk to Jemaa elFnaa, and the entire team is lovely! Zachariah especially made my stay warm and welcoming- he was always a high point to look forward to! This is not a “luxury” property by western standards, but I’m not a luxury type of person either so it was perfect! The staff is kind and flexible, will give you all the local info and recommendations you need, and even offered to come pick me up if I got lost! (Thankfully that wasn’t necessary!) They coordinate airport transfers very well, thoughtfully providing an assistant and a cart to bring your luggage from the airport van over the cobbled alleys to the riad. Don’t attempt to find it yourself the first time- the maze of alleyways definitely requires a guide at first. The food was consistently delicious and “local,” and they will arrange dinners and local excursions as well. Very much appreciated for my first time in Morocco. I sincerely hope my travels bring me back to Riad Lorsya and when they do, I’ll return! Thank you all, Holly

Peaceful escape in the middle of the media
This riad is in a great location for exploring the medina. What really made our stay here standout was the staff. They were always so helpful and we were thankful to have their help booking seats on a bus to another city and hammam reservations at a nice place. Additionally, we loved that we could always get a pot of mint tea to relax after a day of the crazy medina. The riad was so quiet and peaceful and breakfast was always lovely (and big!).

The hotel is in the market. The room is nicely decorated. The hotel provided big breakfast every morning. Definitely worth the money. The only down side is the hotel’s location. The entrance of it is in an alley. It took some time for us to find it when we first arrived.

Friendly staff and close to Djemma el-Fna
Hotel manager reached out to us way ahead of time and provided lots of useful info. During our stay, he was very polite and patient. Hotel is conveniently located, e.g. close to Djemma el Fna and it’s interior design is quite lovely. Suggestions are perhaps they can fix the leaky shower head and change smelly area carpet.

Great Riad near to everything
We had 3 nights here in March and were greeted by Abdul who was amazing, he really looked after us throughout our stay and nothing was too much. The room was large, we stayed in Samsara. It was a little dark but that wasn’t an issue, the roof terrace is lovely and a real sun trap. I would definitely stay again

Beautiful room
This Riad is lovely. Our room was beautiful inside. The staff were friendly and attentive. The breakfast is simple but perfectly adequate. We were greeted with mint tea when we arrived. I would seriously recommend that you ring the Riad and organise a pick up from where ever you are coming from (airport etc) as it is nearly impossible to find the Riad on your own. There is no taxi access and it is in the middle of the souks. This is a perfect location but tricky to find at first. We would stay again.

Make Riad Lorsya your choice in Marrakech!
Searching for a Riad in medina? Look no further. I looked for hours trying to compare, Riad Lorysa was perfect. We have spent two weeks in Morocco, including a different Riad in Marrakech, but the service here was outstanding. Staff was great, he knew English, and was over the top friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, pool was clean, terrace was good with a shower and the location was safe and central. If you looking for a Riad Lorsya should be your choice. Did I mention that the room was in lovely Moroccan style?

Historic and Comfortable
Riad Lorsya is minutes from the Medina. Absolutely great for seeing old Marrakech. Before we went, I read several reviews saying how it was easy to get lost navigating the many alleys, but after one trip, it was simple to find our way from the ryad to the market every day. Abdul and his staff are very friendly and accommodating. I'd go back to this place in a heartbeat!

Fantastic Hotel in the Medina! Great Location!
Riad Lorsya is a remarkable hotel. It's location is central to the action, yet it is extremely quiet and peaceful. The manager went above and beyond his what is expected of most managers, to make his guests feel welcome, comfortable and safe. The level of care, concern and service provided by the manager is supreme. I ended up staying 3 nights and plan to come back in the near future.

From start to finish, this was a great stay. We were greeted at the airport, escorted to the riad, and enjoyed a refreshing reception. The service was outstanding--from Abdul to the cooks and cleaning staff. All made us feel welcome. The location is great, and after a couple of days you'll find your way around easily. Any kind of trips we wanted to take were expertly arranged as well. If you want a real Marrakech experience, you should stay here!

Good value for money
Our stay at Riad Lorsya was very good . It is only 2 minute walk into souks and markets . 5 minutes from FNA square . The hotel staff helped and booked a trip for us to the Atlas Mountains , 50euros which was a great day out and worth the money . There is no kettle in the room but the staff will make you a cuppa on request . The room was very good but there is no door on the toilet and would be better with even a curtain hanging there. the breakfast was a piece of fruit some bread , pancakes , jams and a cuppa . Listen to what the manager tells you as it's easy to get lost. He will tell you how to get back to the Riad and it works . Good authentic Riad and was worth the money .

Tranquility amongst the Bustle
This hotel appears to be a Typical small Moroccan Hotel and is beautiful with the most helpful staff who were available around the clock to assist in anyway. Our bedroom was very stylish with en suite facilities and was spotlessly clean. It has a roof terrace which is great for relaxing or seeing sights24 hours a day. Though the location is perfect it can be slightly confusing to find the hotel on fist arrival but once found it is the place to stay right in the middle of a quiet spot though very close to all the sights and action.

Confusing finding the place.
Super confusing finding the place. Down many winding medina pathways. Dont try to find it at night, seriously. No signs or markings and GPS location doesn't work in these small foot paths. The Riad was very nice with roof top balcony and is definitely in the medina, which is a bustling market with labyrinth style streets... However there can be some issues with location. Wifi not good in rooms.

Recommended, quiet oasis in the heart of the actio
A stunning Riad close to Djemma El Fna and the souk, but nestled in a quiet dead end maze (don't try to find it yourself; but if you're Avebury's, follow the black Equity Point Hostel plaques; once you've reached that hostel, turn right, follow to the end, turn right again, and the Riad will be on your left). The staff is super friendly, they helped us with everything we needed during our 3 night stay, including booking the long trip back to Casa airport. The day manager Abdou will welcome you with tea and an overview of sights to see. His English is excellent. Would definitely stay there again

A perfect romantic Riad, for couples, in the heart of the Medina souks, surprisingly quiet and safe. Ideal for a two-three day stay at marrakech. the staff is superb, breakfast is an indulgence, natural and abundant. Rooms are sensuous.
