The property has been beautifully renovated and is a tranquil, elegant and restful space in the centre of the medina. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms tastefully decorated with all the facilities you need. The roof terrace is a lovely area to sit and relax with a view of the Atlas mountains and if it is too hot, the courtyard below is even better with a lovely pool. The food was delicious and good value for money. The hosts were very warm and welcoming and they kindly arranged an airport pickup and met us at the main square to escort us to the medina which was very much appreciated. Thank you Edouard and Claude for your hospitality.
We could not fault it. Everything was fabulous.

From our arrival to departure everything was coordinated to get us from our transport to the Riad. It was such an outstanding atmosphere and location, completely disconnected from the souk outside. Maybe a little difficult if you were trying to find the way by yourself, but it was actually easy. Nowhere near the hustle and bustle. We were greeted by Edward, and Ayoud with mint tea, and shown to our amazing rooms. Each one was different and so well colour coordinated. The breakfast was served by the pool. Good coffee and tea, and a menu for eggs. The restaurant recommendations were perfect. We all enjoyed the Hammam with Amina. Why go elsewhere when this was so clean and so enjoyable. Rooftop terrace where we could enjoy wine and nibbles. I would recommend this Riad to anyone going to Marrakesh. We all loved it. Two couples.
It was perfect for our stay.

Incredibly beautiful and tastefully decorated riad. All the staff and owners were vey kind and welcoming. We felt like royalty. Ajub was especially helpful, he picked us up from the taxi ( we would never find the road by ourselves) and escorted us to the Riad, helped us with dinner recommendations, activities and made sure we knew direction how to get back. He even gave us his personal phone in case we get lost ( which is very easy in the souks). The room was lovely and pristine. It was cleaned daily. I highly recommend this riad. It’s hard to find at first ( but everything in the media is hard to find, lol), definitely have them pick you up at the airport- helps a lot to have Ajub guide you
Everything was perfect

The location was amazing in the heart of the medina but in a quiet alley, unbelievable how peaceful it was given the proximity to the big square. The staff were incredible so helpful and you felt very well liked after. The welcome was on point. Lovely refreshing tea and information on the area after a hot trip to get there.
The breakfast was lovely however it was quite sweet based and would have been nice to get something a little savoury. Even cheese or eggs. Wi-Fi was a little patch but this seems to be a regular occurrence in the Morocco. We got a bit lost getting to the road so just do your home work beforehand. It would have been so much easier that way because it’s simple when you know how!

The Riad is beautiful . The decoración is lovely .The staff were exceptional, especially Ali and Ayoub. The owners were also very accommodating .Situated very near to the main plaza but still very quiet..
The WiFi wasn't great . I had to leave the room and go to the stairs to complete what I needed to do online. The breakfast, although presented well, was a little basic and very repetitive. Although we said we didn't eat yogurts, they were there every day. The pastries rather bland . Maybe some buttery croissants and some deli meats and cheeses.would have been nice as there was nothing really to put on the basket of bread.

I had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay at Riad Dollar Des Sables. Claude contacted me several days ahead to organise a car from the airport. The driver Youssouf was excellent and got a porter to accompany me the rest of the way to the Riad from the edge of the Medina (the old town). This turned out to be essential as there was absolutely no way I would have found it on my own. The Riad itself is in the midst of the bustling chaotic souks, yet is an incredibly quiet oasis once you're through the door. It's a beautiful old building with a lovely central courtyard and spa (typical of traditional Moroccan mansions or Riads, the history is interesting) and a terrace on the top floor. The staff at Riad Dollar Des Sables were incredibly helpful, warm and friendly without exception. A special mention goes to Ali, the lovely, gentle humble man who works nights and who welcomed me so warmly on the first evening after a long, exhausting journey. The breakfasts are delicious with different traditional Moroccan breads each day such as msemen, baghrir and batbout. Also, the salade Marocaine I had on the first night was so good I had one with every meal subsequently, but none were as delicious as that one that Ali made me. I really had a smooth and stress-free stay at Riad Des Sables, it's a lovely place in a fantastic location. I can't recommend it highly enough.
The wifi was a bit up and down, but this might have just been Morocco - it was even worse at the conference I went to. I would recommend getting a local SIM - I got one from Maroc telecom for 70 dirham (about 10 AUD) and the data speed was fine.

Staff members are absolutely wonderful, really made us feel special: they are super helpful and friendly. The location is great and so are the facilities within the riad. We tried the spa service which again, a great experience. Oh and the food: from breakfast through to dinner...very nice!
If I had to find a negative thing, I'd say the aircon in the room worked so, so (but bear in mind that it was absolutely boiling outside!) and the space around the bed was very little: not a problem for us, but may be an issue for some guests.

Lovely 1-night stay in Marrakesh, great service and advice from helpful staff and particularly enjoyed the hammam experience! Incredible and clean room with a large bathroom. And although it is in a back alley that is a bit difficult to find, you can definitely do this using Google Maps. The trick is that the street is a bit hidden and in our opinion at a first glance can look more like a shop entrance than a street. Easiest is to look out for steps going down (see photo) and ask around once you're close. Once you're on the street, look at the house numbers to navigate the quickest way to the Riad. Wifi was also good on all floors.
If I have to mention anything, it'd be that certain things came at extra costs (like bottles of water and parts of the breakfast) that were free or included at every other place we stayed at during our time in Marrakesh and Morocco. This was communicated in a good and transparent which we appreciated, but just to be aware.

I loved the location, the hospitality and the rooftop. The staff went beyond the call of duty and assisted will questions and needs. They were helpful with activities and suggestions for our trip. The location was very central and felt safe. Ayoob booked all our taxis and tuktuks and guided us throughout!
The breakfast was the same everyday and it was lovely but would be nice for some change. I was unaware of the additional tax per person. The room didn't have a bin or a tv and the air con was slightly temperamental.

Fantastic Riad right in the middle of the medina. The staff are fantastic. Had a lovely relaxed welcome with Moroccan tea before being shown to our room. The room was small but cozy with a good sized shower/toilet room. Bed was cozy and aircon worked well. (You will need it in summer). There is a lovely roof area to chill and relax in. We sat there most evenings and enjoyed a beer. It is surprisingly quiet especially as you are deep in the medina breakfast is served on the ground floor next to the small plunge pool. Lovely breakfast with local breads and delicacies. Although you are in the middle of a thriving market, the Riad feels extremely safe and secure. No one enters without the door being opened by the staff. The owners were away when we visited but the 2 guys running the Riad were absolutely amazing. So helpful. Thank you.
Instructions on how to find this Riad are given but it is very hard to find. We got dropped off by taxi at the far end of the medina (cars can't get any closer) and then got a guy with a cart to take our bags (and us) to the Riad. Best £8 we paid all trip!!! Whilst accommodation can be paid by card, Any extras and local taxes have to be paid for by cash. This is not made clear when booking.
