Our stay at Sidi Mimoune Riad was an absolute delight, and it was the exceptional staff that truly made our experience unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, they went out of their way to ensure that we felt welcomed and well cared for. Aicha was incredibly kind, offering helpful advice on things to do around Marrakesh, while Abu was always attentive, ensuring that our needs were met with a smile. Mamoud’s warmth and cheerful personality made every interaction feel like we were truly guests in their home. We had requested a quiet room, and the team thoughtfully arranged for us to stay in a spacious, peaceful room. It was the perfect escape after a day exploring the vibrant city. The Riad itself is beautifully designed with traditional Moroccan touches, creating a tranquil oasis in the heart of Marrakesh. The location couldn’t be better: just a short 15-20 minute walk to the famous Jemaa el-Fnaa and other key attractions, yet far enough to avoid the noise and crowds, allowing for a peaceful retreat. We also had dinner at the Riad, and it was absolutely delicious. The couscous with chicken and vegetables was perfectly cooked and offered a generous portion, ideal for two. One of the standout features of Sidi Mimoune Riad is its perfect balance of cost and value. The level of comfort, service, and attention to detail we experienced felt far beyond what we expected for the price. It's truly excellent value for money — especially considering the location, the beauty of the Riad, and the remarkable staff. From the warm welcome with Moroccan tea and faqqas to the thoughtful service throughout our stay, everything about our time at Sidi Mimoune was exceptional. We can’t recommend this Riad enough. Five stars all the way!

- The staff are what made the stay at the Riad worth it. Aicha and Abderrahim were incredibly kind and helpful from start to finish. We asked for a quiet room and were given a larger room on the top floor to be away from the kitchen’s morning bustle. - The Riad is quite beautiful and very well located on walking distance (15-20min) from all the main historical sites and markets (especially jamaa elfna) but far enough to not be bothered by the sounds. - We had dinner at the hotel (couscous with chicken and veggies) and it was absolutely delicious and a well-sized portion for two. - The welcome with Moroccan tea and faqqas was very nice too!

- you can’t sleep without AC in Marrakesh but it was very loud. Replacing it with a quieter version would be an easy fix and make a world of a difference.

Great staff - Younis and Aicha were lovely to deal with, the rest of the staff was also very nice. The riad was super cute, the rooms were clean and the location was in the heart of the Medina!

The breakfast (except for the juice!) was a bit meh. Not the worst problem for me and my wife but there were big decorative holes in the bathroom that made any sounds or noises coming from the bathroom very obvious to the other person in the room haha!

The staff is absolutely amazing in this Riad. Aichi and Mohammed but also the women who clean the rooms really go the extra mile to ensure you have a fabulous stay in the Riad and Marrakesh. The facilities are good but it is really the staff who make the difference. The internet works very well!

I found the Riad quite expensive (perhaps not more expensive than comparable ones but that I do not know). If that translates into good salaries for the staff than fine but given that hotel staff in Morocco earn rather little, then I am not quite sure why the price is so steep. Entry to the spa facilities/Hammam is not included.

I could not fault Riad Sidi Mimoune. The riad is impeccably presented and our room was spacious and comfortable. Property is well located for seeing the sites and visiting the medina. Cheap, secure parking is available just a short walk away too. The added bonus of having a hammam on site is great and so reasonably priced too! The staff were all very friendly and even got up early to send us off with coffee before our flight. Can’t recommend enough.

Super friendly staff, went out of their way to make our late arrival comfortable, including holding dinner for us. Comfortable stay with beautiful decor. Great location and friendly kitten to play with!

Like many riads, the entry was down a passageway with construction, so a little awkward with wheelie bags but just something to be aware of, not a major issue

You got a real "I'm in Morocco" feel. The ambiance, especially lighting was gorgeous. I got the Moroccan welcome from Aicha as I checked in, royal tea with biscotti, so refreshing. I'd never seen tea poured this way or in a glass though hot. My room had colored glass windows that opened to the inner courtyard. It was quaint, which was great for someone who came to SEE Marrakech...no TV, but good WiFi, so laptop life was on point as I also had work to work on. I always travel with "world" adapter, so if from USA, the electrical outlets are European. The doors are old world and added to the vibe. The pool in the courtyard is deep enough for a swim, but it's not heated, so unless you're a member of the polar bear club, going beyond a toe, is a no, in November at least, summer might be better. Breakfast was included but because I left early for excursions, not sure what the full fare is like. Mohammed did have a simple breakfast with bread(amazing, I had 3 different kinds during my 2 night stay), eggplant Moroccan style, fresh fruit, even at 6:30AM. Dinner was delicious the 1 night I was in by 8pm. The managers, Aicha, Mohammed, and Majin, were very welcoming, and accommodating, and for me, spoke English, (my French is blah). They of course speak French and Arabic as well. The other staff were very pleasant, esp the ones who did the Hammam (spa). If you are use to luxe spas, and not opened mind, this is not for you. Everyone else, the Argan oil rub down and scrub down is "like grandma when you tried to come in the house looking like Swamp thing". I think even my cellulite hit the road. The massage after the bath was everything..I so feel asleep, but was glowing and refreshed for my flight to Casablanca.

There wasn't anything for me I didn't like. I would suggest, having a price list for meals and additional services in perhaps a brochure or little booklet.

The staff were very welcoming and very helpful. Really felt like home, Room and bathroom were clean and old fashion, location was near to the center of everything you needed. and after a long day of walking around the roof view and tea were just what needed. Definitely value for your money

It was little complicated to reach the hotel on your own because its placed deep inside the old town, otherwise all was fine and as described on the website

This Riad was a pleasant surprise. The moment we opened the door the staff was so warm and welcoming, especially Aicha. The staff knew everyone our name and used to sit and chat with us (giving us a lot of suggestions regarding Marrakech sightseeing). At first glance, the walk to the Riad could appear a bit dispersive, but at the same moment safe (few alleys in and very well lit at night). We walked everywhere and even came back at midnight without any problem. Our rooms were greats, the breakfast was basically the same everyday, but a good breakfast overall. In conclusion, we would suggest to stay here as the staff is lovely and the price is right!

The staff went above and beyond to help us with bookings, printing tickets, giving us early breakfasts etc. Love that we were squeezed in to enjoy a hammam and massage. Definately a must when in Morocco. We felt nurtured and relaxed which is nice after adventures out and about.

The triple room was a little squashy compared to the two bedrooms. But otherwise it was excellent.
