This riad was recommended by a friend and we were not disappointed. Don't be fooled by the long, dark alleyway that leads to this riad. Once you open the ominous door, there is a delightful, authentic riad. The staff are very attentive and the food is outstanding! Try the soups and vegetable dishes. Hamid, the manager, was very helpful and... More

After a difficult start (in fact we had a reservation for another riad) we gathered at the dar al Jazeera ... we were hesitant but given the discomfort made ​​us choose the room we preferred ... as most of the riad is hidden but once you learn the way becomes easy ... the riad is beautiful and fragrant, clean rooms...

From the moment we arrived we were treated like the most favorite relations of Hamid, who literally did everything for us. He always had a welcoming smile, was patient with our thousand questions and waited on us hand and foot. We felt so peaceful and relaxed that we decided not to leave for dinner and had our evening meals every... More

My wife and i were bumpd from another Riad into this one due to over booking. Access is only by walking the very narrow streets and probably takes 10mins from the nearest drop off point. Another reviewer, "sleepysteve" has accurately described the access, rooms and also the 3 courtyards. In addition there is a wonderful roof terrace where there are... More

The smell of room 14 was filled with orange blossom when we arrived for the last part of our two week honeymoon. The service was friendly and extremely welcoming...with a huge hug to the lovely gentleman on the front desk! It is very well hidden...I felt immersed in old Marrakech. The restaurant round the corner, is unforgetable. Just stunning! Eveything... More

I've stayed here a couple of times now. While it is minimalist in design in a Zen-like sort of way (at least compared to two other riads I have visited), it is friendly and comfortable. Other reviewers have commented on the fact that first arrival is not for the faint-hearted. Because the medinah lanes are too narrow for cars, you... More

A stunning and stylish 17th century building, located in the heart of the medina but extremely tranquil. Beautiful rooms, excellent breakfast (no matter what time you get out of bed), a small swimming pool on the ground floor and an extensive roof terrace. Great service from the staff. The riad is located in a car-free zone but watch out for... More

For the 4th time, we stayed at the Al Jazira riad in Marrakesh. Do you stay 4 times in a row in the same place if you don't love the place? This riad is really classy, kept as original as can be, still very comfortable, very resting for the guests with its wide walls. We did visit a number of... More

We wondered where we were going to, narrow, noisy , people filled passage ways. then a huge wooden door opening onto peace and calm. .. Rose petals , blue pool, candles. An oasis. With a warm welcome.
