Riad Elnoujoum

A lovely, peaceful Riad close to the Kasbah. It was very clean and a very good breakfast with helpful and friendly staff

Really nice Riad in a quiet area, large rooms, lovely staff, breakfast wasn't varied, not a problem for a very short stay, but by the 4th day..... It's easy to walk to the main part of town and there are plenty good restaurants nearby.

Definitely recommend! Beautiful place and the people especially Karim went out of their way to make us comfortable. There was a lovely breakfast every morning, and Karim gave us many pointers of other places to go. It was our first time in Marrakesh and it was a beautiful trip This is a great well priced beautiful place to stay

Loved staying at this Riad - very welcoming, friendly, helpful. Gave an authentic experience of staying in Marrakech. The breakfast every morning was fantastic. I was a bit hesitant to stay here compared to a hotel but so glad that we did!

It was our first trip to Marrakesh and unfortunately for us, we chose to stay in the Medina. It’s a very noisy, dirty, colourful area that is full on craziness the whole time. Our Riad was half way up the Rue De La Kasbah, about a 15 minute walk to the main square. Access was via a very dirty alleyway. The whole area is generally noisy, filthy and bustling with people, cars, exhaust fumes and tons of mopeds that drive quickly through the narrowest of lanes, many oblivious to pedestrians. With hindsight, we should have just visited this area, preferably at night and definitely not stayed there. The Riad was nicely arranged with a small indoor pool, which we didn’t use and our spacious room was on the first floor. There was no basic facilities in the room like bottled water, tea/coffee making or a TV. The whole room requires updating, especially the bathroom, where water from the bath taps leaked onto the floor and the shower hose was very old and frayed. Lighting in the room was not very bright but the lamp shades were beautiful. Khalid the manager and his colleagues were very friendly and helpful. The room was always cleaned on time.

Lovely riad tucked away in the Marrakech kasbah close to historical sights and great restaurants.

Wonderfully quiet and calm

This Riad was amazing!! Khalid the host was truly attentive, helpful and friendly!

We enjoyed our visit but for me the foam pillows were not comfortable. The single bed in the room wasn’t requested and made going to the bathroom at night a real pain.

This was an incredible experience. Everyone was so nice and welcoming and the trip to Marrakech wouldn’t have been the same without Riad Elnoujoum.

No help in luggage transfer from car to hotel. Limited breakfast options. Difficult area to navigate and drive car. Surrounding area run down but close to main square. But very polite and attentive service. Room was just ok.

It’s a beautiful property with amazing staff. Thank you Khalid for taking care of me and everything I needed and the woman who works there is amazing as well, I wish I got her name. Beautiful scenery and close to everything you need.

Property is great, staff is excellant.

Central location

Very special Riad in the Kasbah. A sanctuary amongst the high energy outside. Loved the location after previously visiting the North corner and West side of the Medina in the past. Very near Sadian Tombs and plenty of good eateries on the Main Street outside and the square by the Tomb entry. We were in ‘Antares’ - Room was clean, character filled and very comfortable. The ladies cleaning the Riad were present every day and so thorough. Khalid is ‘front of house’ and was so helpful and hospitable. The daily breakfast rotates every 2nd day and provides a great start to the day. There are evening meal options but we didn’t try that out nor did we do the spa. We climbed Jebal Toubkal while in Marrakesh so used the room for our possessions one night out of the 6, and found it affordable enough to do that; and what a welcome return after a 2 day trek!! The pool is usable but very cold.. nice given the rooftop heat; we only cooled the legs rather than full submission. Lots of other social communal chill out zones, and the peace and tranquility in the centre of the Riad is something I will miss! We will return!!

The property was really excellent and unique. The staff were super friendly and genuinely caring The area around was extremely interesting and buzzing and very safe. We were very happy to have picked a Riad instead of a hotel further out of the Kasbah. The food in the different restaurants was amazingly good, great tasting and good value.

The staff was very kind and helpful. Highly recommended.

A quiet home in the midst of a rather chaotic city!

Loved the quiet once you stepped into the Riad. Great breakfast..lovely room..awesome location. Very clean and wonderful ambience. Only complaint, wish the coffee was hotter otherwise loved it.

Stunning property that is hidden away but close to local streets

Loved this Riad, excellent service and a home from home, especially the wonderful Khalid and the girls, all made our stay so special and memorable.

The staff was strong on many languages but english was the weaker one.

Lovely riad with beautiful rooms.

The rooms were lovely and the interior of the whole building was very charming.

Riad Elnoujoum is a beautifully renovated Riad that retains its Moroccan essence and beauty. Slightly back from the main road, we were welcomed by Khalid with traditional Moroccan tea who took time to answer all our questions and make us feel at home. Three stories high, with a central open sky courtyard that contains a delightful green tiled plunge pool. There is light, garden, birds, and three private sitting or dining areas. Our bedroom with private ensuite was on the first floor - beautiful, comfortable and relaxing. On the roof there is a huge and beautiful private terrace as well as a private hamman and massage room (on request). Khalid was also amazing in assisting in organising our tours and a private driver for our onward trip to Fez. Just down the road is the delightful Cafe Kasbah. You will be close to everything. We will be back. Absolutely recommend the Riad Elnoujoum as a wonderful and unique Riad in Marrakech. My husband and I have been travelling and living in hotels since May 2023, this is definitely one of our favourites and we will be back. We also had my Norwegian cousin staying, and he loved it too.

We spent four nights at this wonderful Riad, with our six year old son. The team were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The Riad is gorgeous, immaculate and so cosy for winter. Our room was stunning, and very comfortable. With ample room for the three of us. Breakfast was delicious, simple and filling. Artisan breads, coffee, fresh juice and local cakes. The little New Year gifts for all three of us, was a lovely surprise and one we will cherish. We can't wait to come back!

I was the only person staying at the property during my time there. The staff was warm, friendly, and accommodating. The bed was very comfortable and the room was more than enough for a solo traveller.

Excellent staff, super cozy & comfortable in a great walkable area.

We had a very comfortable experience. The Riad inner courtyard was a nice quiet place to relax and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Each day our breakfast items were super fresh and tasty. So nice to be served different selections each day during our stay.

We had a very relaxing wonderful stay. It’s a classic beautiful Riad with all the amenities. Saida was amazing and took such good care of us. We’ll definitely return and I highly recommend it over riads. This is what you are looking for.🌹

Beautiful place, convenient location, comfortable spacious room, great breakfast. polite, hardworking ataff.

It was one of if not the most beautiful hotel/place I've ever stayed at my entire life. The entire staff are so nice and sweet. I felt like royalty being there. It made my Morocco experience one to remember for my entire life.

True Riad in a great area of the Kasbah. Very welcoming and amazing people at the Riad. Lots of great restaurants around and close to many attractions.

Very welcoming, polite, and helpful. Although, there was a large language barrier with English. All things considered, I would stay there again.

Lovely Riad. Room was spacious and very traditional. Would have loved a shower as well as the bath. Rooftop space was really nice. Staff friendly and helpful

I loved the care we got at this Riad. Khalid and Sahida were amazing hosts. The personal touches were really nice and added so much more to our holiday. Would definitely recommend this place to stay when visiting Marrakech.

Great service! From the outside the area looks a bit sketchy, but in the inside it is paradise. The friendly owners went far and beyond to make our stay the best ever! Rooms are comfortable and beautiful. Food is good.

Located in a quiet street in Kasbah, 15 mins away from the airport. I preferred this area to stay in than Medina which is much more busy. Easily walkable within 15 mins to Jemaa el-fena square. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend.

The stay was pleasant. It was a beautiful place. Food was great. The hospitality of the staff was as you would expect.

We had an amazing stay in this gorgeous traditional riad. It's in a pretty good location in the Kasbah area, about a 10 minute walk south of the main square. It's less chaotic in this area, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The riad itself was immaculate and beautiful. There's a central courtyard with a small pool surrounded by rooms, and they are all beautiful. The room was very comfortable and had a modern bathroom with elegant fixtures. Every morning they served us breakfast which was bread, pastries, orange juice, mint tea, and coffee. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful - they told us how to get around, helped with taxis, and even came to find us when we were lost one evening! I can't speak highly enough of this place, our stay was terrific.

Me and my partner stayed for 6 days at the riad and it was amazing, very clean and confortable, the bedroom was spacious and beautifully decorated with traditional touches, very quiet and easy to find great location and the staff were very friendly from the cleaners to the host 10* highly recommended

Very friendly staff , quiet place , clean.

A quiet litte riad in the Casbah section of the medina. A bit out of the way compared to some other places, but it was very quiet and the staff were very nice. The room was quite big, as was the bathroom and its luxurious tub. Excellent wifi for Marrakech compared to other places I stayed. IT is a simple riad and offers a simple breakfast in a small dining area off the courtyard, but they were always helpful and arranged an airport transfer at far less than I would have paid getting a taxi on the street. A little thing that goes a long way at the end of your stay. They do offer massages (three rooms for it!), though I did not get one. The only drawback is that it is a bit off the main street, so if late nights are your thing make sure to double check your route back as that area of the medina can be tricky to navigate. For the price and convenience I found it a good place overall and was happy with my choice.

Really nice property, all the people that worked there where really helpful and couldnt do enough for you. Perfect location for us, just under 10mins walk to main square. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant, would like to stay again.

Such a warm welcome, nothing too much trouble for Khalid and his colleagues. Comfortable beds, excellent breakfast. Ideally situated. Would stay again

I liked the personal help I got from the staff. I also really liked the design aspects of the hotel room, especially the bathroom (limestone) and the windows

We had a lovely time at this Riad. The staff were lovely, attentive and helpful. The building was charming with comfortable rooms, a nicely chilly plunge pool and a large roof terrace. It is situated in the Kasbah, so very close to the city centre, but quiet inside the buidling. It is not a conventional hotel experience. There is no bar or food after breakfast. Our room was on the ground floor, opening out onto the outside dining area, so if you wanted a bit more privacy, you could request a room on the first floor. If you want a Riad experience, this was lovely and very good value for money.

Excellent hotel, excellent service! Staff are very helpful.

The staff at the riad were very friendly and helpful.

Great Staff , Khalid at the reception was great , very accommodating , Sayeda the lady who clean the rooms super nice and helpful , very clean , highly recommended

Such a great riad. Amazingly helpful staff.

Great staff. I stayed here for a week and enjoyed every minute of it

Amazing riad in Marrakesh. The staff makes it what it is. They are truly amazing.

Every single thing about this Riad was AMAZING!! The staff is incredible!! So friendly and wildly helpful!! The property is exactly as pictured - better even. Location was ideal - so quiet but EVERYTHING is within a quick walk. Lots of great shops, restaurants, & a pharmacy within 2 minutes. Market is a straight shot about 15min with lots to see and eat on the way. I was delightfully surprised when they arranged a taxi for our departure - made it incredibly stress free and easy to get back to the airport - the taxi was the nicest one we had seen the entire week but was the same price as the one we negotiated on the way in. I’m going to miss breakfast - so delicious, authentic & served quickly as soon as we sat each morning. Thank you Khalid & the wonderful women that I didn’t catch names of but enjoyed interacting with throughout our trip. When we’re able to come back to Morocco we’ll definitely stay here again & cannot recommend it enough!

I would recommend this Riad to anyone wanting to stay in Marrakech. The staff are absolutely wonderful. Kind, helpful, and very accommodating to any need you may have- including food allergies. And the food is delicious. Plus fresh squeezed Orange juice every morning. The location is great as well. In the Kasbah area of the medina and walkable to almost everything. The only thing I took a taxi to was the YSL gardens which was very easy to do. It is my second time staying at this Riad and I can’t say enough good things. If I could give it 10 Stars I would.

If I could give this Riad a million stars, I would. The service from ALL the staff was impeccable, absolutely flawless! The delicious breakfast was something we looked forward to every morning and you can tell they genuinely care about your stay. I had a bit of an issue with Expedia - the pictures at my time of booking was muddled, so we ended up with a different room than I booked for. However the staff went above and beyond to look after us! I cannot fault them at all, so if you are looking to book this Riad, book through them directly - don’t use Expedia! But don’t look further, the location is perfect, I honestly have nothing bad to say. Thank you all at Riad Elnoujoum for making our stay comfortable and for making us happy. I will forever tell my friends and family to stay with you! Shoukran!

The people that run this property are amazing! Efficient,ran like a well oiled machine! I would go back in a second! Beautiful riad, clean, serene. Excellent chef on staff, best meals we had were there. Our concierge was spot on and arranged everything we needed. I had a wonderful stay there and highly recommend it.

The hotel was outstanding! Historic and stunning. Our host Khalid helped me with a taxi when I left and he told me how much the fare would be. Breakfast was generous and stunning. Room amazing!!!

This hotel is in a seedy part of town. Part of the Medina I believe but worst area. Can’t reach by car. Have to get out and walk. Address hard to find. They did not answer bell after 1am. Had to get another room. Pure nightmare.

Beautiful peaceful riad tucked away in the kaspar to escape the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh. Would have loved to have stayed longer but had plans to explore more of Morocco.

The raid itself was absolutely beautiful And walking distance from the main square and other tourist sites. The staff were extremely attentive and helpful! Thank you all for making our first time in Morocco a memorable one! We will surely be returning! Xx

Riad Elnoujoum is the right choice If you're looking for a quite place in Marrakesh that's just 5 minutes walk away from the main square (Jemma El Fnaa) Amaizing Riad, nice and affable personnel. Spacious rooms. I also like shower cabin style. The only thing I didn't quite like was wi-fi speed. I also noticed local SIM card internet connection was not really good in this part of the old city. Apart from it the place is wonderful

Lovely, calm place to come home to after a hectic day. Staff are kind and attentive, especially the manager. Wished we could have stayed here longer. We'll be back.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff couldnt have been nicer or more helpful and the riad was just lovely. The only thing that could have been improved would be if we were asked to pay the taxes on arrival, rather than when we were leaving, as we had spent all our money and hadnt budgeted for paying. Otherwise, was perfect

More quiet than other riads that was nice. Easy to walk to the square and not get lost. Breakfast was not robust but it was satisfactory and fresh. Large bathroom which was unique also

Staff were really helpful, very clean lovely room although the bed was a little hard but that’s a personal taste. It was incredibly quite and tranquil which was a contrast to the busy roads outside. Would definitely stay again.

I was looking for a place to sleep before my flight the next day. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice this hotel was. I will definitely recommend it to others.

This property was absolutely the perfect Marrakesh experience. The staff were all so delightful and wonderful I cannot express how amazed I was by their level of service. Several of them walked for quite some distance to show us around the Medina. The property itself was the ideal cultrual experience and calming oasis. I loved the look, the feel, the other guests, and the breakfast was wonderful.

The staff was very warm and welcoming. Specially Hadid (I hope I’m writing his name correctly). They received us with mint tea and when I requested if it was possible to have breakfast because we had been traveling since very early and had not had breakfast within 15 min a delicious breakfast was prepared ajena served. They really go above and beyond to accommodate any request. The room was spacious and very well decorated in the Moroccan style. The rest of the Riad was beautiful too. Just as it shows in the pictures. It is also conveniently located close to the Saadian tombs, El Badi Palace and the Kasbah mosque. I would definitely recommend this riad.

From the outside, we wondered what we had booked, but you enter into a beautiful courtyard with a pool, authentic Moroccan style decor and given a warm welcome and served mint tea. Our rooms were of the same standard, a real wow factor. A peaceful roof terrace is the perfect place to escape the madness of Marrakech. A lovely breakfast of Moroccan crepes, jam, honey & cake along with freshly squeezed orange juice and mint tea or coffee are served in the courtyard. Wine and beer were available to buy from reception as it’s not readily available. We had some laundry and ironing done, nothing was too much trouble. Hachim, the night porter is more than helpful with service and recommendations of places to eat. We would stay here again!!

Location is amazing. All the sites are a short walk. Riad is quiet at night. Great service. Not too hard to find.

It was Nice and quiet place to relax though the water pressure wasn't very strong to take a shower. Apart from that, it was good place to be overall.

Loved it

Simply amazing! All the staff made us feel very welcomed. Will stay here again

Staff was incredible and made us feel at home! Very accommodating and helpful.

Very family place in a Ryad like that.very good hospitality, so kind employees. So nice to stay here, just at the center of many places to visit. But the area around during the evening and the night break everything, to bad.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Khalid, our host, was gracious, engaging and patient with our countless questions. Loved relaxing in the pool at the end of a long, hot day.

Marakesh kalınabilecek güzel bir butik otel. Alisveris yerlerine yakın, personel gayet ilgili ve kibar.memnun kaldık.tavsiye edilir.

Beautiful property and carefully decorated. Staff very gentle. Two things may be improved: the shower because is bit uncomfortable taking a bath with a hand shower and breakfast could have more variety.

Very nice calm hotel with friendly staff. The pool is a must and the terrace offers a great view.

Great location in the kasbah area. Hosts were so accommodating. It was a treat to enjoy a dip in the small pool of an afternoon to escape the heat. Breakfast could have done with a little bit of fruit but that is my only niggle. Definitely would stay here again if returning to the madness of Marrakech.

I am completely happy with my experience at Riad ElNoujoum. The staff are very welcoming and helpful,three more great things to mention is the WiFi is fast, the air conditioning in the room was perfect and breakfast/tea every morning was delicious! Our room was cleaned everyday and clean towels replaced daily (thank you) I came to stay for a week with my 9yr old son and we arrived in Morocco around 2:30 am, we had to get a cab from the airport taxi rank to riad (he definitely overcharged) but it was a short car journey and once at the riad we was welcomed by Khalid who made our stay a pleasant experience. The riad is in a quiet/cleaner part of Marrakech and just a short walk away from main square and more shops. You have plenty of options for food/tourist shopping etc. The locals who live near the riad (shop keepers etc) are all very nice too. It was our first time in Morocco and the riad made the trip extra special, I felt safe with my son in this part of town and I would stay at Riad El Noujoum again!

Finding the hotel was a bit difficult but the driver pulled over and got directions from people who lived in the neighborhood. Other than that, everything was superb. I enjoyed my stay immensely and highly recommend the hotel. Outstanding customer service. Quiet and safe, not to mention clean to the point of sterile.

Arrived at the airport and was disappointed that the transfer that I booked (from the Rhiad) did not turn up. There was however, a really helpful man that called the Rhiad and our taxi turned up after 20min or so. The drive from the airport was interesting, so many cars and motorbikes zipping around everywhere! The first room we were given was really near to the tables and chairs next to the pool, which was a bit disconcerting, especially as the toilet was right next to a window, where people could potentially be eating breakfast or dinner! We asked and got an upgrade and the second room was excellent! Breakfast was delicious, pancakes with honey or jam, bread, little cakes and excellent hot coffee or tea and the most amazing fresh orange. Everywhere was kept extremely clean and whatever you asked for you got. The night porter was really helpful, you could ask his advice about places to go and cost of things etc. We eat in the Rhiad on our last night and the food was lovely, nice wine and excellent service. The Rhiad is away from the really busy parts, but a short 10 min walk to everywhere that you need to see. We had the most amazing 4 night stay, such an interesting place to visit!

Close to Jama el Fna (about 20mins walk) and other sights like the Saadian tombs. The Riad is lovely and a quiet retreat from hustle and bustle of the square. A nice welcome on arrival with mint tea and cake provided. Breakfast starts at 8am.

I could not say enough about our experience at this Riad... the place is magical!! The building itself is tucked off of a side street in the portion of the medina near the palace. It’s very walkable to the Jamma al Fna and pleasantly clear of some of the chaos of that square. The neighborhood is bustling during the day, but feels very peaceful and safe at the evening. Our suite was immaculate and the rest of the hotel grounds were always clean and quite. There is a lovely rooftop and the dipping pool is wonderful to cool your legs after a hot walk through the souks. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating and we had no problems getting to or from th Riad. The airport shuttle was incredibly easy. Breakfast is lovely each morning. We were sad to leave and would definitely stay here again if back in Marrakesh.

The hotel is one of the best place I ever stay. Perfect location. Very clean, comfortable and romantic place. I am 110% happy!

Hotel was great. Lovely people who would do anything for you. Had to leave after 3 days as husband had a seizure whilst out walking. People fantastic at helping.

The Riad is lovely, nice decorated, big rooms, some rooms have shower others a bath, the area is safe, very near to all major sightseeing , 10 minutes walk to Djemaa el Fna Square. Breakfast was good, also the people working there very friendly and helpeful. Thanks Khalib for everything, (organize the excursions, Spa and taxi) we had an amazing time in Marrakech, definitly I will come back to Riad Elnoujoum in future

The Riad was beautiful and the pool a fantastic addition. The staff were very attentive and looked after us well. Location good, about a 20 minute walk from the main square. Only disappointment was that we tried to book an airport pickup with the riad on arrival into Marrakesh. It was on our original booking form and we emailed 3 times a week prior and no one ever got back to us! Other than that a nice stay!

This place was fanatastic! The room, pool and service were exactly as advertised and Khalid was more than helpful in every aspect of our needs. Can't beat the value and experience!

Very friendly helpful staff, comfortable and luxurious room, excellent location just 10 min to main square, nice pool, great terrace (with a hot tub...). Basically just amazing and everything is very clean. Breakfast is tasty and is great to eat next to the pool. Reccomend to eat here once at least. The food is cooked especially for you and very tasty. La marrakesh restaurant close and good for a touristic experience. Cannot reccomend enough!

Good hotel. Recomend who whant to expierence Marrakech in local view

Fantastic, our first visit to Marrakech and to stay inside the medina made it very special. It was further enhanced by the care taken by Khalid to ensure we could find our way around.

It was a pleasure to stay at this Riad , there was no single thing that i could complain about . Great location and host. Recommended !

Loved my stay here. It was an oasis in the busy Kasbah section of the medina. I definitely plan on returning. (Hint: medina street names are not always well known, even to locals and street signs are not always easy to see, so when taking a taxi back to the hotel, just tell the driver it's in the Kasbah and then ask for directions to Elnajoum after you get there)

Riad Elnoujoum was everything we hoped it would be. Beautiful courtyard, beautiful rooms, wonderful staff. The breakfasts were great - coffee, amazing. Crepes, delicious. Little cakes, unique. Beds were extremely comfortable and the bedding was fantastic. The towels were luxurious. The location was fantastic - close to the Medina and also the new city (French quarter). But the absolute best thing was the staff. They were all over our needs without us even realizing we needed anything. Can't recommend this place enough. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely experience free upgraded lovely staff and rooms are lovely and big

Everything about our stay was lovely, apart from personally quite a big but...The hot water for the shower didn't last more than 10minutes, certainly not long enough for the 2 of us to have a shower.
