My first trip to Marrakech and my first stay in a traditional Riad. Beautiful welcome with tea even though it was late. The Riad was situated perfectly for all I wanted to see and was a welcome oasis after a long day exploring.

Perfection!

This Riad was fantastic, they organised an airport pick up for an additional fee which I would recommend! The Riad itself is beautiful and ideally located, the service was awesome and that rooftop was the perfect space to chill. Definitely recommend

Amazing Riad and staff

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Ecila to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. The staff were amazing and always on hand to help or offer advice. They recommend and booked a couple of local restaurants for our stay and in the last night we are at the Riad (locally produced and cooked meal was amazing!). The location is right at the heart of the Souk but it is an oasis of tranquility from the outside hustle and bustle. We would thoroughly recommend staying at Riad Ecila. Thank you Yvan and the team for making our stay memorable.

This is absolutely a golden gem! The Raid is extremely beautiful, the rooms are amazing, the breakfast is very complete and served at the table, and the people... oooh the people! They are all amazing, from the owners to the cleaning ladies, everyone always smiling and ready to help! We are definitely coming back! A special thanks to Ismael! Ps: I recommend to book the transfer from the airport to the raid, getting inside of the Medina at the first time might be a little messy, so having someone with you helps a lot.

A lovely peaceful oasis smack dab in the middle of the crazy chaos of Marrakech. Yvan, both Ishmaels and the rest of the staff were constantly one step ahead of our needs. Upon arrival, we received a comprehensive orientation, including restaurant recommendations and a map of the city with lots of detailed notes. They served delicious breakfasts in the courtyard. They brought us beer, wine and snacks on the rooftop patio. They catered to our every whim....booking excursions, guides, airport shuttles and transportation. The authentic Moroccan decor is gorgeous. Even 'Cila, the housecat, was delightful. Can't say enough.... fantastic stay! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Merveilleux

Quel séjour merveilleux ! Accueil chaleureux, petit déjeuner excellent et complet, calme du patio grâce à la verrière rétractable et situation idéale au coeur de la Médina ! Ambiance familiale et chaleureuse, on repart ému des sourires du personnel ! Conseil : réserver dès le 1er soir le dîner au Riad, délicieux, car il faut réserver dans les autres restaurants de la Médina. Mouna est la meilleure cuisinière de Marrakech !

Fantastisk hotel med skøn atmosfære. Meget stille på trods af at det ligger lige midt i medinaen. Meget smukt indrettet med mange fine detaljer. Sødt og venligt personale. Køkkendamen er så smilende at man kun kan blive i godt humør. God morgenmad. Ville elske at komme tilbage!

Une très beau séjour dans ce Riad

Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits dans le Riad Ecila. En plein cœur de la Médina et à deux pas de la place des épices, ce Riad offre une réelle immersion dans la Medina, les hôtes sont adorables et aux petits soins, le petit déjeuner est très copieux et d’excellents restaurants aux alentours. Les chambres ne sont pas immenses mais offre tout le confort nécessaire. La piscine permet de se rafraîchir après les balades c’est un vrai plus ainsi que le toit pour se relaxer en fin de journée. Bref un très bon rapport qualité prix

Sjajan domaćin, spreman pomoći savjetima. Besprijekorno čisto uz svakodnevno održavanje. Odlična lokacija u srcu Medine. Dobra mjesta za jelo u blizini, kao i tržnica sa začinima. Već nakon prvog polaganog nalaženja Riada smo se odlično snalazili po centru.
