This was one of the best stays I had! The breakfast was AMAZING and our stay in Morocco was made so much better by our host and the staff here at Abaca Badra. The pickup from the airport was great, and when we arrived we were greeted with tea and an explanation of the areas of Morocco and helpful things to know. The room was equipped with argan oil, lotion, body wash, a blow dryer, robes, everything you could really need. We were able to get henna done at the riad as well which was very convenient! BOOK THIS RIAD!

We had never stayed in a Riad before so it was a new experience. But it was great. Would definitely stay here again. This place is great value and Gilles and the staff are really helpful. Lots of nice touches like slippers and bathrobes. Yes you can find a Riah which is more luxurious, at a cost, but for us it was great

Good Riad

2nd stay at the Riah, We stayed for 4 days when we arrived in Marrakesh and one night before our flight. Gilles stored some luggage for us without charge while we toured around Morocco. Rooms as described. Nice extras like slippers, robes hairdryer and lots of toiletries. Never stayed in a Riad and I am pretty certain you can find flashier ones and a much greater cost but if I am in Morocco again I would definitely stay here as it is good value and the food, staff everything in fact is fine

Pésima experiencia, le pedí al dueño que me si me podía servir el desayuno y fue súper grosero y me gritó que no podía hacerlo, sé que estaba fuera del horario pero no había necesidad de gritarme, NO VOLVERÍA NI AUNQUE ME PAGARAN!! aparte la instalaciones les falta un poco de mantenimiento

The property was as advertised, clean, spacious and in a very nice area with a less than 15 minute walk to the main square. The street just outside the entrance is nice and quiet and just at the end of it you get a street which is lively and full of small shops. What made this stand out and why I would recommend this instead of any other place to stay is the how well the host and workers treat you. They are extremely nice and accommodating as well as the breakfasts which are excellent

Pre Christmas in Marrakech

Had the riad pretty much all to ourselves for the duration of our stay. Ideally locally in a quiet area but only a few minutes walk to the souks and 10 minutes walk to the main square.

I based my choice on the positive reviews of Giles' friendliness and helpfulness. I was glad I did. Friendly transfer arranged, a good night's sleep and a great breakfast. If I come back to Marrakesh I will return here.

Gilles is so attentive to his guests. He helped us with our transfer to the airport and even accompanied us safely to retrieve our car to the airport. There is nothing this man wouldn’t do to make your stay great! Breakfast was always ready and waiting hot and delicious. He also offers dinner options which is great for those not wanting to go out. The Riad is very clean and beautiful. It’s located near many shops and restaurants. Great experience you can’t go wrong in choosing this awesome place.

Loved this Riad. Giles was a wonderful host. The breakfast was generous and delicious. Giles gave us some good tips to navigate tourist traps and gave us a great recommendation to buy pottery. We loved this Riad also for the closeness to the key attractions Bacha coffee and Madarsa Ben Youssef. Highly recommend staying here

We had a wonderful stay! The riad owner was incredibly kind and made us feel incredibly safe as two college aged females traveling by ourselves. He and his staff served us a lovely breakfast in the mornings and our room was cleaned each day. The owner gave us many tips about the city in terms of things to see and scams to avoid. The riad was is a convenient location- walkable to everything in the Medina and only a 2 minute walk from the main road where we could get picked up for our excursions. Would definitely recommend!
