Riad Kenzo

We stayed for 3 nights at the riad, which gave us easy access to the souk and attractions in the medina. Fatima and Ayoub were very nice hosts and gave us lots of tips for our time in Marrakech. We really liked the way they made the mint tea, so I would give it a try if you visit. There is good thought put into how the rooms are decorated and the riad has a homely and traditional feel.

Province of Monza and Brianza

Very cozy Riad located in the medina, north from Jamaa el Fna square.The location is simply perfect: 10 mins walking distance from Jamaa el Fna, 5 mins from a place where you can take a taxi, restaurants, shops, souk market. Other interesting places in the area are Madrasa, Musee de la Photographie.Rooms are essentials and comfy, always clean. Nice patio with a very small swimming pool (impossible to be used probably until summer) where they serve a huge breakfast in the morning, absolutely a plus of this place: omelette, cake, moroccan pancake, butter, jam, mint tea, coffee, orange juice..An other plus of this riad is the terrace, where you can enjoy a drink, waiting for the sunset and the muezzin calling for pray.Big up to the staff, especially Fatima that is very kind in every single way.Only cons is lack of wi-fi.

London

Very welcoming, especially Oussama and Fati who were friendly and helpful. Quiet even though it is in the Souks. Lovely roof terrace. Ate one evening meal which was delicious. Breakfast was always fresh and delicious. Beware, sound carries so you can hear what is going on in others rooms! We got lost the first night as the alley way leading to the Riad is hard to miss. Take some photos of the stalls/cafe nearby to use on your return.

Riyadh

We loved it! Beautiful Riad in the heart of Marrakech with kind, friendly, helpful and polite staff. We enjoyed our stay from beginning till the end. Lovely clean room with comfortable beds, beautiful terrace, stunning view, traditional local dinner made by Shaqira the best food we tried in Marrakech, hammam, massage..everything was just perfect! We would like to thank Fati and the rest of the staff who made our stay in Marrakech so great!

Lohja

Friendly staff and great service, very basic room but clean. Breakfast was adequate. Our room located in the ground floor next to the breakfast area and when people walked by or sat in the breakfast area, maybe they were able to hear us (and see us if window open). We ordered airport transfer and it worked well. There are a few restaurants nearby. I absolutely recommend riad accommodation when in Morocco and this riad worked well. Medina area itself can be a bit challenging place and it is easy to get lost without offline google map.

Bradford

I stayed here with my husband for for nights.The central location is ideal for The souk and the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh, yet inside the Riad is quiet and peaceful. The staff are brilliantly friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble anytime of day. They will always recommend somewhere to visit. They also arranged airport transfers €20. This was a very welcome extra for us.We chose to eat here on our 1st night and the food is simple and tasty as was the included breakfast.In summary we found Riad Kenzo to be simple, friendly, uncomplicated, comfortable and beautiful.We would recommend to anyone looking for a similar experience.

Ireland

5 stars honestly isn’t enough for this place. The most amazing riad we stayed in in all of Morocco and Abdul was a huge part of that. He arranged our entire trip for us to utilize our time better and we wouldn’t have gotten to see the Sahara is it wasn’t for him. He made us feel right at home from the second we walked in. Always prepared us breakfast no matter what time we woke up and always there to guide us and chat to us at night around the fire. The rest of the staff were also wonderful and extremely welcoming and good to chat to. Really good fun! Location wise it was brilliant! Close to the square (10 min walk) but quiet at night. Rooms were also beautiful and SOO comfy. We’re going to return to Marrakesh again on our last night to stay here!

Tyne and Wear

An almost perfect retreat from the crazy city. Stayed with two of my friends, the staff were really friendly and the breakfast and tea was spot on.The riad is based in a great location as well, despite being in the Medina and among the market streets, it’s a really relaxed part of the city and going into the riad was like entering your own sanctuary from the city.Would highly recommend!

Zurich

We stayed in this Riad for all together 5 nights. We felt very welcome because of the very friendly staff and the beautiful Riad.The Breakfast and the Dinner (Couscous) cooked by the very friendly and talented kitchen staff was also amazing.The Hammam/Massages offered by the Riad are also very well and relaxing.I would recommend the Riad Kenzo again anytime! :-)

Very cosy, clean and friendly hotel in the heart of the Medina. Nice looking rooms and a great rooftop-terasse. The staff is really friendly and makes everything to feel you well during your stay. Good value for a quiet and happy stay at Marrakech.

Lovely place and the most fantastic staff!So friendly and helpful.The rooms were beautiful and clean. I would recommend to have the breakfast at the riad. It's a small place so it is nice meeting the other people at the riad ist the breakfast.Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere

Stafford

Beautifully decorated riad which is about 10 minutes away from the main square. It's easy enough to find and is a peaceful place to be after being in the hustle and bustle of Marrakech all day. We stayed here for four nights. The staff were lovely and really helpful booking taxis for us. Our room was spotless and really comfy. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone who wants a quiet, comfy place to stay in Marrakech.

Fira

Me and my mum stayed here in January 2017 for 4 nights. The staff were amazing they really helped us and gave us loads of information on how to get around and they also arranged for transfers to and from the airport. The breakfast was really good considering it was only 5 euros. We had homemade yogurt, two different kinds of pancakes, chocolate cake, tea, orange juice, bread etc. The riad itself is very central and right in the market, when we first arrived we were not sure where we were going as it was down a dark alley, but once you go through the doors you get the riad/Moroccan vibe. The riad was very traditional and had a lovely small pool/breakfast area in the middle. Our room was a simple double one on the ground floor next to the kitchen. The bed was very comfortable. Although outside our bathroom was the breakfast area and as the window had no glass and was wooden with small holes, I am pretty sure they could here us use the bathroom in the mornings and also you could see outside through the small holes. I would recommend when booking asking for a higher level room.Overall for the price we payed it was great

Together with my mom and sister we stayed here for 3 nights and we had the best time. The rooms are very clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast is really good and a lot. And of course our friend Yasin made the trip complete he was very helpful and really made us feel like home!! Only thing is that the sign of the riad is not easy to find. It’s only ridden down on the wall , maybe they should make a bigger sign. We had the best time .

Rainham

So after an iffy start to our Moroccan adventure we managed to grab one night here, our host Yussain was brilliant and very accommodating, he was eager to assist in whatever we needed. We booked the on site Hammam and Massge which was amazing as we got to experience the Hammam together, the lady that does it works tirelessly here, I saw her first thing cleaning rooms then she was in the kitchen and finally working herself so hard to please us in the Hammam. My only negative was the cost of breakfast at 100 Dirham for 1 person I felt was a little excessive for a few pancakes, croissants and bananas

Me and my wife recently stayed at theriad for 5 nights and we had some wonderful time. The riad is a 300 years old Moroccan-style house which gives you a real taste of what life in Morocco is like. It is located in the medina within a short walk from the major attraction sites. The staff are very friendly and helpful. If you are planning to spend sometime in Marrakech there is not better place to stay. However, do some research about what a riad looks like to ensure this is the time of experience you are looking for. It can be very different from western standards however it has all the comforts you may want. It s the right place to experience some true Moroccan life.

Edinburgh

We stayed for a week in September 2016 and we were really pleased with Riad Kenzo. The staff were lovely and helpful and they were always smiling! This is quite an authentic Moroccan riad and the decor was lovely. Breakfast was included every morning and it was very good value.

We visited Riad Kenzo in October 2016 - the place was like a step back in time! Wonderful atmosphere, very clean, yet had an old time charm to it... Breakfast was included and the mint tea was to die for!!! But above all, the staff was SO wonderful! They were extremely helpful at any time of day/night, for any request, and went out of their way to help us with anything we needed! This didn't feel like a hotel, but more like an extension of someone's home!

Leeds

What a little gem this place is, when we read the reviews and saw the cost beforehand it seemed too good to be true. It's not!The staff are great, the building fantastic character, charming rooms, lovely roof terrace.We recommend taking them up on the option of collection from the airport as it's not easy to find at first (nowhere is until you find your bearings in the medina!). Also the 3 course menu is better than food from restaurants in the area and was a great decision that we made to eat there on our first night.It's 10 minutes walk at tops to the main square and even less into the heart of the souks.They can arrange tours too which seems to be better than booking them elsewhere as we did this and others in the riad did it separately and didn't get the same level of service on their trips.We had a great 4 nights here, would 100% recommend staying here over a fancy resort hotel.

The staff, especially Ayub and Fatima made us feel so welcome and safe and told us everything we needed to know. They also helped with anything else we needed such as confirming our bookings for activities we had booked. Very nice riad, quiet and relaxing. Would highly recommend.

Honestly the hotel is made by the amazing staff, everyone I had the pleasure to interact with was amazing. The cleaner did an amazing job every time she even washed one of my dirty tops without being asked, the staff do a phenomenal job at making your stay perfect and are so easy to get along with. I’d recommend staying here if you’re new to Marrakesh as the staff will keep you safe and take care of you here.

Everything was amazing about this Riad. It’s in medina, the hosts were so great and accommodating and helpful especially with advice about the offline map - would’ve got so lost without that so thank you!! The building is beautiful and I wish we had more time to make use of the terrace and pool. I guess this just means we’ll have to visit again!! Thank you

Excellent position. This Riad is located in the heart of Medina, very close to the most famous areas, but at the same time it is very quite. Mr. Ayub is a great person, always ready to help us, giving good information. The breakfast was tasty and enough. We were in the room in the terrace... simply amazing!

Location was great. Lounge pool in the centre of ground floor was refreshing after a short walk to the local souks. The staff were amazingly helpful with local area and excursions and helping us find a taxi to the station at 3am. The Moroccan decoration is beautiful and the rooftop terrace is a major sun trap. Loved everything about this riad. The toiletries provided in the room and fully functional AC were great touches for July.

There was a woman working there and she was so caring and interested in helping and talking with us. It was a great welcome. I had a very nice massage at a fine price and the small pool was great and also had water massage. The cleaning lady had a lovely smile and vibe. We felt right at home!

This is the most beautiful little Riad in the heart of Marrakech souks where the staff made our stay first class. If you are looking for a real Moroccan experience book this Riad as you will not be disappointed. The rooms are all individual and so traditionally Moroccan they are just amazing. All of the staff were so welcoming, kind and helpful, Fati and Mohammed are beautiful people who go out of their way to help you adapt to the souks and survive, without them we still may be lost! The domestic staff & cooks are also lovely, their food is soooo tasty please do eat with them as the flavours are true Morocco. Also, the spa treatments are a must, please do the Hammam, your skin will never have felt so good! The massage also highly recommended.
