We stayed at this hostel from May 15 to May 18. The owner is very kind, and all the staff are very nice too. The owner, Madrew (I may have spelled it wrong, sorry), looks quite like the former USA President Obama (see attached photo). They are very helpful and have done more than they should. For example, they let me store my large luggage for 10 days for free, which was really helpful. The location is good as well. We tried to find a place on the edge of the old town, as taxis wont go into the old town. It is a very convenient location with many restaurants and markets around the area. After turning into a quiet street for about one minute, you will find this hostel in a very quiet place. You can start your walk around the old town from here. It's about a 15-20 minute walk to the center of the old town. You wont feel bored at all while walking, as there are numerous stores and restaurants along the way. I strongly suggest having dinner on the rooftop of this hostel. It has very Moroccan-style decoration and the food is wonderful. Anyone visiting Morocco for the first time must try the Tagine dish. Aida Alaca provides authentic Tagines, and the dinner includes either beer or wine. By the way, almost all restaurants in the old town do not serve alcoholic drinks. This hostels dishes are more authentic. The cook is a housewife-looking lady who comes to the hostel to cook for you. It was really the best dinner we had in Marrakech.

Everything about our stay at Riad Alaka was amazing.
We stayed for 6 nights and the whole time we felt at home. All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, nothing was too much to ask. The attention to detail was exceptional and the rooms were cleaned daily. The rooftop was a beautiful place to relax and it is perfectly located for a short stroll into the medina and perfectly located for a taxi as only a short walk from the road.
At night the Riad is quiet and relaxing with limited noise from the city.
On our first day we had the wellness package which we would highly recommend. It was a great and relaxing beginning to our holiday.
Meals were homemade, traditional and delicious.
We would highly recommend to anyone visiting Marakech for any amount of time.
Thank you so much to all the staff for a lovely experience, we will definitely be returning and recommending to anyone who plans to visit.

Majoub and his staff are very kind and they think to all that you need. The Riad Is beautiful and in a best position to visit the Heart of medina and the new city too. It's been a pleasure stay there. Thank you

The staff were the most friendly and lovely people. They always had a smile around their faces. The receptionist, Mimoune, was very helpful and attentive. Even the lady cleaner was very accommodating. She showed us one of the rooms she was cleaning as some of the rooms have different themes. The Riad has a little pool that is nice for cooling off at the centre that has different coloured lights on during the night. They have a lovely receiving area in front of it that they offer delicious tea and snacks when arriving. It is near the exit where you can hail a taxi and around 10 minute walk to Bacha Coffee and 15 minute walk to Marajah Spa. Although they have their own hammam and massage, I havent tried it since I had already pre-booked for another one prior.
There isnt really a roof top view but they do serve the meals there and it had a good breeze during the night at this time of month. Other than that, it was a relaxing stay.

Everything about the property was fantastic! The owner is very kind and ensures you feel safe and have a great stay. I did a hammam, massage, and dinner package. It was one of the best meals I ate. The breakfast was also very delicious. Its just off a side street from the medina allowing for a quieter atmosphere. I am a solo female and felt very are staying there and very safe walking around.

I loved everything about this place, including how it was decorated, the food (I had breakfast and dinner there), and the staff. I'd like to mention Mimon in particular, who was very friendly and helpful.

We had a great time with Majhoub and his team. They made arrangements to collect us from the airport and we were welcomed with fabulous dinner. The Riad was superb. It's located in the Medina, which is full of hustle and bustle, but we were in a quiet spot within an easy walk to everything. Majhoub helped us put together an itinerary for the week, which was super helpful. We visited the Atlast Mountains, a lunch with a Berber family, enjoyed a hot air balloon flight and visited a camp in the Agabay Desert. Majhoub was very clear to relay that I was a veggie to the organisers of any tours with food. Our driver, Abdou, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional and had a very warm and friendly personality. He was with us most days and told us a lot about the country, different areas, and history during our travels. We felt extremely safe. The staff were fantastic and we felt like we were part of the family rather than guests. Our thanks go to Majhoub, Abdou, Mimon, Aziza, Merica and Soraya and anyone we have missed - sorry (I think I have their names correctly!) for making a stay extremely special.
Nothing.

Riad was lovely - very authentic and absolutely beautiful. In the medina a short walk from the main square and steps from some great local restaurants. Rooms were clean and big and bed was comfortable. Staff were really friendly.
After a long journey from London we had to resist a hard push on buying a private tour - despite us saying that we had already booked one (at a fraction of the price). We ended up paying for a cooking class and meal which although were good was good home cooking quality rather than the wonderful meals we had out at 5* restaurants at half the price.

The riad was lovely. Just lovely. The staff was great. We felt so comfortable. There were so many choices when I looked at hotels I finally just chose one and I was not disappointed. If I return to Marrakesh I will stay here. Everything was arranged for us. The food was wonderful. The staff so accommodating. The rooms were excellent. Take advantage of the hammam and the massage
