We stayed for a whole week, and while all of Marrakesh is amazing, Riad Anabel was the highlight of our trip. We stayed with our two young kids (ages 3 and 6) and my mother (70s), and had two absolutely gorgeous and spacious rooms. Everything was immaculately cleaned each day, and both rooms had an air conditioner/heating unit (the nights get cold in winter). The rooms (and the whole Riad) are decorated beautifully with traditional elements and antiques, but all of the amenities are modern and nothing feels outdated. Before arriving, communication was easy and they were very responsive to our questions and requests. They arranged pick up and transport from the airport, and we were welcomed with fresh mint tea and cookies. The fresh flowers make the whole area smell wonderful, and other than the birds twittering in the flowering trees on the roof, it's amazingly quiet considering the central location (it's right in the markets, and only a 5-10 minute walk to the main square, Jemaa el-Fnaa). The food at the Riad is the best in Marrakesh! The breakfasts are huge spreads, with different breads, fruits, pastries and a different egg Tagine each morning. And dinners are wonderful! We ended up eating most of our dinners there; the Tagines are delicious and better than other restaurants we tried. And the best part is they also offer cooking classes! We did the cooking class with our two young girls, and it was so personal and fun. Instead of feeling formal or fussy, it felt more like we were gathered together as a family in a cozy, home kitchen. They also have a small Hammam, and even the kids liked getting a scrub treatment there. The pool in the atrium is very cold, especially for January, but I can imagine in the hot summer it would be very refreshing after wandering the markets. The staff, owners, and everyone there were absolutely incredible.

The property is as per the photos. We booked two rooms and both were well decorated and very comfortable. We’ve been travelling for nearly 2 weeks and stayed in several Riads. This was by far the most beautiful and the location was very central in the medina. The team looked after us very well. We arrived extremely late by car as we had met with an accident along the way. The team waited for us, had someone pick us up from the car park and led us to the riad and our rooms. The owner herself was there to meet us and ensured that we were comfortable. We also had dinner there one evening and the food was fabulous. I wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you.

Nothing.

The riad is in a fantastic location, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. The room was cleaned daily, with fresh towels and bed making, which added a nice touch of comfort. Breakfast on the rooftop was a real highlight, with delicious food in a great environment. The overall ambience of the riad was beautiful and created a peaceful atmosphere throughout my stay.

I stayed in the "Chocolat" room, which is located on the ground floor right next to the patio. Unfortunately, this made it difficult to open the windows for privacy. Additionally, when I requested a taxi through the riad, the driver did not arrive at the riad itself, and I was instructed to meet them at a nearby square. With many taxis in the area, it was hard to find the specific one arranged by the riad, leading to confusion and delays, and I ultimately had to take a different taxi, which caused me to be late for my appointment.

Riad Anabel was excellent in every aspect. The facilities were beautiful, the service exceptional, and the owners wonderful, like family. The breakfast was spectacular. I had never stayed in such a complete riad in every way before. My mother fell ill, and they cared for us as if we were family. It was a true pleasure to spend a few days at the riad, and we will definitely return soon. Many thanks to the Riad Anabel family, Ines.

Beautiful room and lobby and the rooftop garden was lovely and chilled - great for eating breakfast every morning. The breakfast was amazing and generous - plus they changed it a bit everyday. Location - easy to find and within walking distance of attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Minor point, but maybe not accepting very young children into the Riad as one can hear giving the proximity of rooms to communal areas.

One of the best places we have ever stayed in. . the whole Riad Anabel team will go to any lengths to make you feel super confortable and at home. An oasis of tranquility only 5 minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech main old square with endless shops, market stalls and eateries. It's all attention to detail, our room (Rose) is beautifully decorated making you feel being part of "The Arabian Nights".  We enjoyed a varied and hearty breakfast at the rooftop which was just amazing. Everything was wonderfull and exceeded our expectations, we definately shall be back.

Beware people with disabilities who have trouble going up and down stairs.

Starting from the beginning and initial communication regarding booking a transport from the airport, everything was smooth and perfect. I've rarely seen this much attention to detail and level of hospitality that many 5 star resorts could envy and learn from. I could be listing million things that impressed us and made our stay unforgettable: the cutest way they decorated our room when we arrived, spotless terrace and delicious breakfast, but most of all politeness and warm welcome from our wonderful hosts Habiba and Fouad (I do hope my spelling is correct). The room was equipped with everything necessary for the uninterrupted stay and was cleaned every day. I can only say one more big thank you to every single person working there, they took care of us like a family.

There were many things we appreciated about Riad Anabel, the owners and staff were exceptional. We were greeted with mint tea and biscuits and shown around, we’re lucky to obtain early access to our bedroom, the roof terrace was beautiful and quiet, the location was exceptional, easy access to several cultural sights and the medina. We only took a taxi once during our stay. The room was clean, beds comfortable and traditionally decorated. We had the room with direct access to the roof terrace which was lovely for breakfast in the morning.

This is a minor thing and I’d still book this property again. Your staying in a Riad not a hotel, most things are available but you do have to go and ask.

This is a truly wonderful Riad in every respect. The location is amazing, very closely located to a lot of the key sites in Marrakesh, yet on a quiet street, so not noisy at all. We were only here for a couple of days, but had an amazing breakfast and an incredible dinner, both of which we ate on the roof terrace. Our room was really lovely and very comfortable. The Riad is run by the owner and her nephew, both of whom are wonderful. We would absolutely recommend this Riad without hesitation.

One extremely small criticism – the pillows were very hard, and very full, which meant that some in our family were not able to use them. It is a minor criticism, but we thought it worth mentioning.

1. Our hosts (Habiba & Fouad) were truly exceptional in making our 3 night stay absolutely enjoyable and comfortable. A genuine personal touch, with a great attention to detail. Extremely professional and most sincere hosts. Thank you ! 2. The facilities were excellent. Our room was perfect with all the amenities required. A filling fresh breakfast on the terrace each morning a true delight and downtime refreshing morrocan tea and most amazing assortments of traditional biscuits. 3. Location Location: Excellent! Quietly nestled away (literally a 2 min walk) from the main walking routes to visit areas situated on either side of the medina. A lovely tranquil riad.
