Hivernage Vacations

This hotel is an old fashioned Riad, which is quiet, comfortable and relaxing. The staff were all attentive and helpful. It has a slightly unusual arrangement in that the swimming pool formed part of the dining room, which meant that diners and swimmers were only a few feet apart. Hotel reception were very helpful in organising taxis where necessary. All in all, a good insight into old style Marrakech living.

i will definitely go back again, evry thing was great, very friendly staff

The first room we had was in the 4000 building on the upper level, and the bathroom floor filled with water everytime we took a shower. Maintenance came three times in 2 days, but we could not deal with the sewage smell everytime we entered the room. After telling the receptionist we didn't want maintenance again she moved us to the 3000 building. The room was considered an "upgraded room," but it looked exactly like our previous room, just without the leaks and smell. All of the restaurants served the same breakfast, lunch, and/or dinner every single day. The food tasted okay, but were tired of eating the same stuff day in and day out. The lobby bathroom often had huge waterbugs/roaches running around and flying. The staff and entertainment was enjoyable, but what we liked most about the hotel was the free shuttle that took us to the "big square" and back. Overall, I've stayed at much better Riu hotels. This one thus far is my least favorite. Oh... Bring your own bottle of alcohol, because everything except the wine snd beer are watered down.

We booked two rooms and arrived at 2:50 pm, they only had one room available. Also the pictures are of two hotel that are attached by a pool area. Not sure why they also use the other hotel photos on the listing. The rooms need improvements, they are run down. Also very noisy all day and night.

Wonderful traditional Riad, very clean and a great location. The staff are all very friendly and helpful, it felt like they couldn’t do enough for you. The staff will recommend places to eat and make your reservations for you. I’d highly recommend the excursion into the Atlas Mountains which the staff book for you. Our guide Hassan was also friendly and knowledgeable and made the day more enjoyable. I’d also recommend getting a Hammam in the Riad. The only negative is the Riad is quite noisy at night, but I think that is the nature of all Riad’s so I don’t hold that against Dar Anika. Can’t rate this Riad highly enough!!
