Riad Dar Bounouar

"Just returned from a wonderful holiday here with friends. I contacted the rhiad in advance and Osama made sure our airport transfer went smoothly as it would have been tricky to find otherwise. Great location and a wonderful authentic experience. Osama went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, including making sure we had what we needed when I took ill on our last night, very grateful to him. The rhiad is a calm oasis after the hustle and bustle of daily life in the medina. Would highly recommend staying here."

"Had a wonderful holiday in Morocco and we could not have had such a wonderful experience without the help of Osama. He organised everything for us from Airport pickup and helped us with our trips to Aqadir, Casablanca, Altas mountains, the desert and local tours. Thanks also to Mohamed who took care of meeting us at the taxi drop off point in the Medina. This hotel is very lucky to have such helpful and loyal employees who really know customer service. Thanks again Osama, Mohamed and our taxi man for all to help and kindness to ensure we had a wonderful time in your beautiful country Your Irish friends Marian & gang🙏"

"We had a wonderful stay at Riad Dar Bounouar and were so glad that we chose this riad. Christian (French speaking owner) was incredibly welcoming to us and my children, it felt like we were staying with family. Oussama (English and Arabic speaking manager) was so helpful too and kindly coordinated anything we required in the riad or outside. Our room was very kindly upgraded to a suite, and we loved the authentic decor with modern bathroom facilities (although the room did not have a tv, fridge, kettle or safe). In the late August heat, it was a little too hot to sleep on the upper level so after the first night we all relocated to the lower floor and could feel the benefit of the air conditioning better too. Everyday we were spoilt by a lovely lady that kindly provided the most plentiful breakfast. This was best way to start the day, in the calm of the riad and in the shade of a banana tree, before starting a busy day of sightseeing or shopping! One of the highlights of our trip recommended by Christian and organised by Oussama was a day trip to a Berber village and Ourika waterfalls with Muhammad. The guide we had for the waterfall was particularly amazing to help us navigate the rocky parts and lead the way with my daughter. Although lunch in Ourika was included, in hindsight we should have saved our appetite for the restaurants near the riad instead. We look forward to coming back to your riad to explore more of the wonders of Marrakesh, as we unfortunately out of time! Thanks again for having us!"
