A magnificent riad!!! Highly recommended!!! We stayed for 5 nights and we felt wonderful in this riad . Large and well-decorated rooms. Huge and luxurious shower. A great open roof overlooking the city. Wonderful and delicious Moroccan cuisine that does not fall short of any high standard restaurant in the city .close by foot to the main square and all the main attractions in Marrakech. Morad the manager of the riad, welcomed us with warmth and patience. And helped us with everything. Thank you so very much for your generosity and kindness. Udi and yahir

We were one of the first customers to enjoy Riad 48 and spa and what a delightful experience! It’s brand new, immaculately clean, stylish, quiet and welcoming. The staff, breakfast and spa - 5 stars. A little gem in the middle of the medina! Special thanks to the manager François for going out of his way with whatever help we needed. Would go back to Marrakesh just to stay there again :)

Really nice place and people. Loved the riad and will come back

As long as there was still construction going on there was some missing routine. But they did everything to cover. Thank you!

This Riad was exceptional. The location was perfect, quiet in the evenings and walking to the Medina. The design was gorgeous and the food was amazing. The chef prepared everything fresh and the traditional Moroccan dinners were 10/10. We will be back! Thank you.

The riad is stylish and well furnished. It is new and very clean. The room is spacious and cozy. The breakfast was great. The staff were helpful and gave us a lot of suggestions.

Nothing. I wish I could stay here longer and try the food from their restaurant.

We had a pleasant 3-night stay at RIAD 48 & SPA in Marrakesh. Rooms: We appreciated the fresh towels delivered daily and the high-quality linens, which were laundered within the hotel (not outsourced to a local laundry) — a nice touch. The shower had strong water pressure (a rarity in hotels), and there was a heated towel rail that added to our comfort: having a warm towel on a cool Moroccan night or the option to wash and dry clothes was a welcome luxury. The wi-fi worked perfectly fine. Breakfasts: We liked local flatbread and lentil and legume soup/porridge. Staff & extra: Mohammed, the receptionist, was welcoming and helpful. We also appreciated the airport transfer, especially since our driver patiently waited over three hours due to lengthy passport control and security at Marrakesh airport. The neighborhood felt safe, and we had no issues while exploring.

A few areas could use improvement to make the experience even better. 1) The room cleaning could be more thorough — there were spider webs in the corners and in the lampshade, stains on the bathroom walls and floor, and even some random scraps of scotch tape on the floor that had been overlooked. 2) The room itself was quite dark, and the only way to get more light and fresh air was to open a window facing the riad’s lounge area, where smoking is allowed. As non-smokers, this was less than ideal. 3) Water bottles are not refilled by default, but we understand — well, that’s Africa! 4) The breakfast was lovely but leaned heavily on bread and fruits. It would be great to have more savory, local options like vegetables, lentils, or beans. A note to anyone arriving at Marrakesh airport: Be prepared for a long wait at the airport — it can take 2-3 hours to pass through passport control, so plan accordingly!
