Great value riad with a lovely bedroom and staff. Really enjoyed our stay. Not luxurious but quirky fun and comfortable. About 15 min walk to the square. Breakfast was good but would benefit from some fruit and maybe slightly better coffee but l did the job. Lovely staff always happy to help and friendly.

Amazing Riad in the heart of Marrakesh. It’s in a great location, within walking distance of all the Souks and the main square, and pretty much everything you would need during your stay is close by. The staff at the Riad really made this experience 10/10, making us feel like home from the moment we arrived. The breakfast was simple but had everything you need and the outdoor seating area is great. I would easily stay here again.

It was a nice property, located in a quiet area and the staff is probably the best part of this property The facilities need some maintenence, like the furniture on the patio its looking really tired.

The manager (owner?) of the property really takes charge of every element, from waiting to escort us to the hotel from our arranged car service, to providing us a detailed orientation including recommendations for dining and activities, to following up on general affairs of the hotel. All the staff were super accommodating and friendly, would recommend this place to anyone visiting Marrakech.

10 out of 10!

My stay at Riad Pachavana was fantastic. The Riad is beautiful, both the rooms and the common spaces. The service was fantastic (thank you Yousef). The location is very good for getting a taxi drop off. It’s in a quiet location but still close to the bustling souks. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Great Hospitality! Riad arranged airport pick up(a must), because within the Medina a car can’t get everywhere but someone met us to walk us right to the front entrance. Easy. Khamissa and staff were wonderful ! Great suggestions for rooftop dinners, 2 amazing meals.. breakfast included was a great assortment of choices(omelette made to order)served on the rooftop deck.

We had a really pleasant stay overall and would happily recommend this hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly and went out of their way to be helpful throughout our visit. They kindly arranged our taxi to and from the airport, which made everything much smoother, and even came to collect us from the taxi drop-off point on arrival — a thoughtful touch that was much appreciated. The hotel itself is in a lovely location, nicely set back from the busy streets, which made it feel calm and relaxing while still being conveniently located. Our only minor criticism was that we were in a ground floor room, which could be a bit noisy at times. Guests occasionally sat out on the patio, and we could hear the hotel doorbell in the early morning. That said, we didn’t spend a huge amount of time in the room, so it didn’t impact our stay too much — but it’s something worth noting for light sleepers. Overall, a great experience with warm hospitality and a peaceful setting.

My stay here was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The location is perfect close to everything but still peaceful and relaxing once you step inside. It truly feels like a hidden oasis. I booked a suite, and it was beautifully decorated, very clean, and incredibly spacious. It felt luxurious while still being warm and authentic, and it made the whole experience even more special and comfortable. The staff made the experience unforgettable. They go above and beyond in every possible way and are genuinely kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything you need. Their hospitality alone is a reason to come back. The food was another highlight. The restaurant serves fresh, flavorful dishes that were consistently delicious, and the breakfasts each morning were amazing; local and authentic. Everything about this riad made me feel comfortable, cared for, and immersed in the beauty of the experience. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting. I can’t wait to come back!

Family trip to Marrakech

Family trip to Marrakech. The location was nice, it's an 3 min walk off a busy street but on the quieter side of the Medina. A 15-20 min walk from the main square in one direction and a 15-20 min walk to the new town and Majorelle Gardens in the other. The hosts were great, they arranged a taxi to pick us up at the airport and then met us in the Medina to walk us to the Riad which I'd highly recommend. We had dinner the first night at the Riad, a good chicken tagine. After a long day of travel it was nice to not have to leave to eat. We spent 4 nights so Breakfast everyday could have used some variety as it was repetitive.

Ashraf and Khamisa took such great care of us. The property is ideally located so we were able to walk to most landmarks. The riad went above and beyond when helping us to arrange excursions and reservations, and even helped us to haggle with a taxi driver! They were always helpful and trying to make our stay and trips around the city as easy and comfortable as possible. At one point my shower head fell off the wall and it was fixed instantly. Because of the hospitality we received we had a truly memorable time in marrakesh. The riad is home to a few rooms but not too many so we got to know the other guests which made the experience more pleasant and intimate. Highly rate this riad.

Riad Pachavana was a good distance from the airport, costing about 80D day or 120D night. Taxi will drop you at road derb lamsaubr, then its 2 minute walk down that alley and riad is on the right. Feels safe in that area at night. We had junior room on first floor and it was quite and clean. They have aircon for heat as March morning and evening are cool. We loved the big bath, as my daughter could splash in it. The outdoor pool is not heated, so no one used it. Breakfast had limited vegetarian options-bread, cheese, fruit salad, olives. sim card shop round the corner on rue gza, going right there was Good vibes coffee shop for plant based hot drinks, going further 8 mins was veg friendly resturants- Broc the Kasbah and opp is simple resturant which we loved and further 5 mins is Kui-zin buffet with veg options. Secret garden and bacha museum were 12 min walk but jemaa alfnaa is 20-25mins. Marjorelle gardens is a must see and is walkable 15mins (book few days ahead). We liked our location if you like walking and it was child friendly.

The building is beautiful. After having stayed at several locations in Morocco, the staff experience was not what I was expecting for the price. The hot water did not last very long for a couple.
