Sidi Bou Othmane Vacations from $1,083

We don’t rate hotels very frequently, but we felt we must because Riad No 5 is an outstanding property with extremely helpful staff. It was our first visit to Marrakech, and Imad and team made us feel very welcome. It is conveniently located within the Medina, not too far from Jmaa El Fna and all the other main sights. The property is air conditioned, impeccably clean, tastefully decorated throughout, with really thoughtful touches everywhere (artwork, tiling, furniture). The breakfast is incredible! And finally, the rooftop pool is a beautiful bonus helping tourists like us escape from the midday heat.

Enjoyed our stay but a few nibbles appeared as our stay continued. The AC in our Suite was very erratic & noisy in operation. At breakfast 1st morning, table we initially chose to sit was overrun with ants, changed table & informed server, nothing appeared done with!. You could hear other rooms conversation through bathroom extraction sysytem very clearly & loudly, which kept us awake late 2 nights, was not able to order drinks to rooftop whilst sitting out during the day at 37°!. Riad is split between 2 buildings with connecting roof & feel the 2nd (not main) riad seems to be forgotten about. Enjoyed but would pick other Riad if returned.

Chambre propre et grande, très bruyant, piscine trop petite et dans l’entrée. Déjeuner vraiment peu varié et de mauvaise qualité. Riad dans rue sale et mal éclairée. Salle de bain très petite. Terasse non disponible pendant notre séjour.
