We stayed here in May and Michel was so amazingly helpful and generous as a host. From the minute we arrived he arranged to meet us, get our bags taken over and made sure that we were settled and welcomed (with some fresh mint tea and sweets too!). He also advised us on places to eat and what to see... More

There are so many riads to choose from in Marrakech, it can be overwhelming. Rest assured, Al Massarah doesn't disappoint. From the moment we arrived the service was excellent - staff met us at the taxi and showed us the way there, through a couple of side streets off a small but bustling market. We ate a delicious dinner there... More

To have stumbled across this Riad was more luck than design and thank goodness we did! If you are looking for class, comfort and excellent service than you need look no further than Michel & Michaels lovingly restored Riad. Supported by David in looking after the guests. Michel even took us shopping to his favourite tassel shop! We shall be... More

What can I possibly say that will not sound as though I am gushing.... From the very moment we arrived and were given the 'royal tour', to drinks on the roof terrace, and the pre-arranged (and spectacular) dinner that was awaiting us... the thoughtful and considered decor, little touches in our rooms, delicious breakfast every morning, and above all the...

Hidden within the Medina, amongst the market and the hustle and bustle is this quiet piece of heaven. A good location, short walk to the souks and night market. For 2 women travelling to Marrakesh for the first time Michel and the staff made us feel very welcome and safe. The staff were very helpful and charming and nothing was... More

I am sitting here by the pool, after an amazing in house hamman session earlier in the morning on our very last day in Marrakech as I write this review. Riad Al Massarah feels like a very special home and haven away from the chaos of the souk and Jemma El Fna. Location was perfect for us as we prefer... More

Book far in advance if you'd like to stay here; the rooms book up quickly. As soon as our taxi arrived at the drop-off spot, we were greeted by David, a wonderful guy. He had a luggage porter with him, and the trip to the Riad was effortless. He then offered us mint tea and told to sit down and... More

Michel, David and the attentive team looked after us and our friends in a quietly efficient way. Nothing was too much trouble, advice was available and after a days sight seeing or haggling there was an oasis of calm and serenity. Would we go back, yes. We didn't take a day trip to the Atlas Mountains, but I am sure... More

It is the personal touches, the design flare of the owners Michael and Michel, and the friendly atmosphere that make the Riad Al Massarah a special place to stay in Marrakech. We stayed for a week in early March in "Jade" which is the one room opening onto the communal roof terrace. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was... More
