Riad Nouhal

I had a pleasant stay at Riad Nouhal. The riad offers good value for money and is very affordable compared to many other accommodation options. The location is convenient, with plenty of shops selling Moroccan goods at reasonable prices within walking distance. There are also street food areas nearby, making it easy to experience local cuisine and culture. The breakfast was amazing and very enjoyable. However, one area for improvement would be the breakfast service, as I had to wait nearly 20 minutes after the scheduled breakfast time before it was served. The main challenge was finding the riad. Although it appeared correctly on Google Maps, there were no clear signs or boards outside the property. As a result, I had to ask local people for directions, and it was quite difficult to locate the entrance, especially for first-time visitors. Apart from these minor issues, everything was perfect, and I had an enjoyable stay. Overall, I would rate Riad Nouhal 8.5/10 for its affordability, great location, and excellent breakfast.

Wrong location on Uber! No hotel name outside! Late BF... helper woke up at BG time 830am

We didn’t have any issues there. In general the service is good even if there is nobody in the reception thus they give you your own keys of the main entrance and your room. As a suggestion it is needed a sign “Riad Nouhal” but anyway, if you follow the location on Google Maps, you will be in.

Great place very close to the center of Marrakech and easy to get around

My personal experience was bad. The word RIAD in Morocco means a traditional Moroccan house with a small courtyard, a garden or a small pool of water in the middle; with rooms around it on two, three or four floors. The listing page states; ‘On site parking’ There is NO parking here as this house is in a small narrow street. I had rented a car, so this hotel was definitely not for me. Then the listing page reads, ‘24 hours front desk’.. there is NO receipt here, let alone a ‘desk’.. you have to knock at the front wooden door hard to get someone to open it from the inside. Some old lady in traditional clothes opened the door for me but couldn’t speak a word of English. My wife and I stood in the street while she phoned someone to come and translate. So it was another false statement on the listing page. The shower, the toilet and the wash basin were packed together next to each other in a tiny space. The bedding was stale and did not look clean. The listing page states, FRONT DESK SERVICES: ’Currency Exchange, Concierge Service, VIP Check-In Service, Express Check-In and Check-Out’ NONE OF THIS IS TRUE; there is No Front Desk here. This is a traditional Moroccan house, there is NO NAME of the Hotel written outside the house! Extremely hard to find. A local man saw me ‘looking lost’ and asked for five dollars to take me to this hotel on foot. My wife and I felt unsafe inside and outside this hotel. I had three nights booking but did not stay even one hour. I left this place and found another comfortable and safe hotel not far from the city centre. I wish to emphasise that it was my personal experience; other people will of course have their own opinion of this hotel. I definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND this hotel to anyone. Thanks for reading this rather extended review.

I WOULD NEVER STAY HERE AGAIN PRO: Good hot shower: Fast internet. The staff were average OK. Nice local shops very close CONS: Very dated, old-fashioned deco. No provision of front door key so often gets stranded outside for a few minutes The breakfast location is on the rooftop 3rd floor. If you have mobility issues you will not be able to manage the stairs. Breakfast was so basic boring same everyday ( uncomfortable to eat In peace because of wasps & bees flying everywhere). The bathroom was ridiculously tiny. Had to climb over the toilet to get to the shower. The shower overflows all over the bathroom floor. Very noisy place.Ground floor rooms have too many people.Summer months full of Screaming children. The plunge pool is ice cold. Very cheap place poor amenities 3/10
