Riad Contessa is ideally situated, not too far from a main road and drop off point. Didn't worry about getting lost. Breakfast was very good. Omelette / bread / cake / jams / honey / yoghurt / fresh orange juice. Different cake, bread and fruit every day. Served individually as you were seated. We had an early start one morning and were offered a smaller, early breakfast. All members of staff were very helpful and friendly. Riad has been tastefully upgraded with traditional decor and fittings. The roof terrace and plunge pool were great when it was hot, even hats were provided. Help was given taking cases to and from room. Definitely would recommend

Cons: Just a couple of points that might help other elderly guests (we're nearly 80) - shower floor very slippery & no hand rail on stairs. A sheet instead of a duvet might be nice (perhaps provided when it's very hot).

Perfecte rust in de Riad die heel goed gelegen is om de Medina te bezoeken. Uiterst vriendelijk personeel, lekker ontbijt. Het was totaal geen probleem om vroeger te ontbijten op de dag van ons vertrek, alles werd vroeger geserveerd voor ons. Ruime kamers. Shuttle-service van en naar de luchthaven (betalend) was in orde.

Besonders hervorzuheben ist auch das selbstgemachte Abendessen – wirklich ein Genuss! Das Personal war durchweg freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit.

Easily accessible, just 2min walk from the nearest drop point and signs on the way leading you to the right direction. I was very warmly welcomed by Marouana and Mohammed. They took time to give me tips and both were super nice and friendly! Really the heart of the place. Room was as seen in pictures. The lobby is very pretty for enjoying mint tee. Breakfast was plenty enough and I was provided that even when I checked out a couple of hours before the official breakfast time, I really appreciated that.

This riad is an absolute gem and a true recommendation! Perfectly located on the edge of the Medina, with everything within easy walking distance. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxed, the rooms are spotless, and the staff are simply amazing. Every morning started with a delicious homemade breakfast full of Moroccan specialties (we completely fell in love with the Amlou 😍). Marwan and the rest of the team truly go above and beyond to help with anything you need. It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were always happy to make a quick call for us, for example to arrange a restaurant reservation. But also thanks for the unexpected homemade cookies and great laughs! 😂😂 We felt incredibly welcome during our stay. It really felt like a home away from home in Contessa Marrakech ✨🙏🏻

Très bien placé, au calme dans la Medina et à proximité des souks, Personnel très accueillant et bienveillant, décoration et état du riad remarquables, petit déjeuner très copieux et délicieux, service repas du soir traditionnel exquis, Découverte du Hamam du riad (Payant) avec un massage gommage convaincant dans une ambiance bienveillante trés agréable grâce à l'équipe. Marouane l'homme qui gère l'organisation partage les bons plans à voir ou à manger avec des conseils et de la pédagogie sur nos interrogations.

Cons: L'ambiance et l'architecture d'un riad se crée autour d'un patio pas toujours calme pour faire la grasse matinée, suivant les autres clients plus ou moins discrets. Le matelas king'sise un peu mou si l'on pèse plus de 90 kg.

We fell in love with this place. It was the 1st stop in our honeymoon and the most memorable! since the moment we stepped in, we were first welcomed by Marowan’s warm smile. He made us feel that we are part of the family. Him and all the other staff were very warm welcoming. They are all generous, giving & kind. True Moroccan spirits. The room was beautifully designed & clean. Breakfast is yum! Ask for their amazing green tea as much as possible because you’ll miss it when you’re gone😂 The location is about 3 minutes walk to the main road. It was scary at first especially at night but once you are use to it you find out you’re just unfamiliar with the place and it’s actually safe.

Absolutely loved this place! Perfect location in a quiet part of the medina, just a short walk from the main square and souks. The riad itself is absolutely beautiful and very authentic, our room was spotless and decorated very nicely. It is a very peaceful riad with only a few rooms, it was lovely and quiet. We were treated so well during our stay - Marouane was the best host and was so genuinely kind and welcoming. He met us where the taxi dropped us off and sorted some mint tea for our arrival! He gave us a map and offered some great recommendations for our time there and always chatted to us and asked about our day. The breakfast was amazing value for money and the staff who prepared and served it were very friendly. Would 100% recommend this to anyone wanting an authentic stay in Marrakech. We really hope to be back some day! :)

Staying at this riad was one of the highlights of our trip to Marrakech. From the moment we arrived, we felt immersed in Moroccan culture, the architecture, the details, the craftsmanship, and the calm atmosphere all reflect the true soul of the medina. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, always happy to share local tips and make us feel at home. It felt less like a hotel and more like being a guest in a traditional Marocan house. If you’re looking for an authentic, cultural stay that lets you experience the real Marrakech while still feeling comfortable and relaxed, this riad is a wonderful choice.

Този риад е с чудесно местоположение- много близо до централната част и същевременно на тихо и спокойно място. Прекрасно обзаведен, едновременно със запазен облик на традиционен дом в Мароко и съчетал удобствата на съвременния свят. Аз и семейството ми останахме много доволни от престоя си, персоналът беше изключително любезен и ни даде ценни съвети за нашите разходки из града. Закуската беше прясно приготвена и разнообразна, сервира се на приятната тераса на покрива. Басейнът е приятен бонус в случай, че искаш да си починеш след измерителен ден в градската лудница. Смятам, че е чудесен избор за желаещи да посетят и да разгледат Маракеш за 2-3-4 дни.

Staff went above and beyond with communication, assisting with luggage and oversized surf boards and even arranging to have an item we left in our rental car delivered to us and arranging for airport transport at 4 in the morning. The breakfast was very yummy. Riad was easy enough to find and quiet enough. Room was spacious, water in shower was hot and good pressure. Staff was incredibly friendly and kind.

Cons: Room lights were plentiful but not very bright, though that isn't a big deal. We thought that the room description stated there were TVs in rooms or on site but no TV was available at all. Not a big deal but something we typically like to have.

Riad Contessa is an oasis of peace, close to everything; the souk is just a few minutes' walk away. Thanks to all the staff for their kindness. The room was stunning, exceeding our expectations. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious. We had dinner at the riad one evening and honestly, we ate the best tagine of our holiday. A special mention for the cleanliness of the riad; everything was impeccable. We will definitely be back.

Everything about this riad exceeded my expectations. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help. The breakfast was delicious, freshly prepared every morning. My room was beautifully decorated, spotless, with every service, and full of Moroccan charm. The rooftop terrace with the pool was a true oasis, to relax after exploring the streets of Marrakech. The location was just a few minutes’ walk from the main attractions, but also quiet to enjoy real tranquility at night. I can’t recommend this riad highly enough. I’ll definitely come back!

The Riad Contessa was a paradise/ perfect haven, located right in the centre of the wonderful chaos of Marrakesh. The location was perfect for a short city break, close to all the major sights. The Riad was perfectly clean, the interiors were designed and styled with class. It had everything we wanted and felt really luxurious. The rooms and bathrooms were comfortable and felt high end. The bed and pillows were perfect and we slept brilliantly every night. The breakfast was really lovely and we enjoyed every morning eating the delicious treats up on the Riad roof terrace. Just a wonderful as the Riad itself was the warming welcome and charm of the Staff. Right from check in, to the moment we checked out they were friendly and made us feel like friends. Youssef was delightful and we enjoyed our chats each morning and evening. He even helped us with problems with our phones, which we really appreciated. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying at Riad Contessa and I hope if we ever come back to Marrakesh, to stay at this wonderful place again in the future.

This was one of the most beautiful places I have stayed in. It's even more stunning than the photos, so well cared for, so clean. The staff are extremely helpful and welcoming - both Marouane and Yousef could not have been nicer. On arrival the mint tea and biscuits are a lovely welcome, and breakfast everyday is fresh and delicious. Our room, Contessa suite, was stunning. The location is excellent - well located to walk to all the key sights but just away from the chaos of the souks. The plunge pool offers a pleasant 'cool off' after a busy day. I cannot recommend this riad highly enough. I hope to return - th you to all the staff!

Hotel położony w spokojnej części medyny, ale też blisko do głównych atrakcji miasta. Hotel jest ładnie urządzony. Nasz pokój był bardzo przestronny i pięknie zdobiony w stylu marokańskim.

Staying at this riad was an absolutely magical experience – we truly felt like we were living in a fairy tale. Our apartment was so beautiful that even the famous Medersa Ben Youssef seemed less impressive afterwards. It felt like a true work of art, with every detail carefully crafted. The location is excellent – close to all the main attractions, yet offering peace and quiet for proper rest and relaxation. The food was outstanding, without a doubt one of the best we had during our entire trip. The rooftop was a highlight – perfect for unwinding, with a small pool to cool off and comfortable loungers for lazy afternoons in the sun.

When we arrived at Riad Contessa we were warmly welcomed by Marouane. Delicious cookies and mint tea were served. The atmosphere of the Riad is very cultural and traditional. Every corner of the hotel is filled with Marrakech motifs and traditional handicrafts. We loved our stay with a fantastic location. We enjoyed our holiday and felt at home. Delicious breakfast was served. The rooms of the Riad were decorated very historically and there was a quality comfortable bed. The rooms were cleaned daily. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The Riad is very central and only a few minutes away from Marrakech's souks. Marouane and Youssef guided us to the historical sites and the best places to eat. A special thank you to Marouane for the good advice on the tips especially for our day trip to Essaouira. If you want to stay close to everything then Riad Contessa is the right place. We will definitely recommend to our family/friends and will come again to Marrakech. Thank you for everything Riad Contessa.

Also, the breakfast is really good, with typical marrocan dishes. And we had dinner once and they prepared us a chicken tagine really delicious. There is a rooftop with a small pool and the view is beautiful. The area around the Riad is very safe. Hope to return soon.

This place is so peaceful! It specializes in beautiful details and great service. It's like a wonderful Moroccan retreat - no TVs, great lighting, nice breakfast and a breathtaking rooftop with small pool. It's a very short walk to the main Medina market and even has its own side market in case the tourist one is overwhelming. Our host was exceedingly helpful, from his tour of the Marrakesh city map to setting up our airport transfer, plus helping us arrange a cooking class with local chefs! Everything there was true to the photos as well.

Cons: My suggestion: Don't come here to party or with lots of children. I found it lovely but some people may not like the quiet atmosphere. There are no televisions and noise will echo so my group made quiet hours.

The Riad Contessa is a jewel of a hotel that looks like it has been there for hundreds of years. The beautiful style that the exquisite finishes and design create a sense that you’ve stepped back into the past. The decor is more than satisfactory for a sultan and you will feel like a visiting dignitary….just don’t get too carried away. Attention to detail is top rate, and so is the great staff. Breakfast is very nice, the bathroom clean and creative, and my bedroom had a comfortable bed and a sofa. WiFi was good and there was adequate lighting. The pictures don’t do it justice. There are also 2 resident cats which is not unusual for Marrakech as there are healthy street cats most everywhere in the Medina. Contessa is in a great neighborhood, easy to find your way back to, and there are a lot of excellent restaurants a short walk away.

Cons: I would have liked a thinner pillow but I didn’t ask so….i also would have enjoyed a kettle in the room.

Location is central very close (5-10 min walking) to center of city Jamal el Faana. Staff, specifically manager Marouan, is superb and helpful for almost any thing you need. Marouan recommend Hammam, restaurants, and other sight seeing points during our stay . Also breakfast is great and they even accommodated for our vegetarian diet . Great place to stay to experience Marrakech.

Cons: Nothing. Except it was my fault that I should have Whats App called Marouan on arrival since the Riad contessa is in narrowed alley so hard to see sign when taxi drops off . I should have called this way Marouan would have been waiting to pick us up from taxi drop off .

The Riad was in a great location, not too far away from the hustle and bustle if that’s what you want or taxis are easy to get from the end of the road. Rooms were really spacious and spotlessly clean room and bathroom. The roof top terrace and plunge pool were perfect for chilling out in the afternoon. The breakfast was lovely and plentiful, freshly made every morning. The staff couldn’t do enough to help, sorting airport transfers, arranging pool days at nearby hotels, recommending restaurants or making sure we had cold beers when we asked. Special shout out to Yousef and Maruan who were brilliant, really friendly, attentive and nothing was too much trouble. This is a really great place to stay!

- Nice atmospheric riad near Dar el Bacha - The manager (Mansour I believe) is very helpful and forthcoming - The design of the courtyard and the rooms is very stylish - Due to its location at a dead end street the area is quiet

Cons: - Hotel rules are rigid and some staff are not very flexible (ie. we asked for an iron and were told that they did not provide this service. Instead we could used pressing service - which was not helpful though as we just needed to iron out some smaller wrinkles. Or I got a "this is not what you told me the day before" as an answer when politely asking if I could take away breakfast for a tour which started early in the morning) - The breakfast lacks variety and fruit - The room curtains are transparent. Due to the light emissions from the courtyard and rooftop our room was too bright during the night

We had such a wonderful experience in Marrakech and much of it was due to the attentiveness and kindness of the Riad Contessa staff. Our experiences at Riad Contessa were amazing - from our first day at Riad Contessa when Maroune came in to work especially during Eid to orient us the Medina all the way to our last day when Asmaa made arrangements for us come back to the Riad after we checked out so we had a quiet cool place to be before our late night departure. We did not have one bad experience during our time in Morocco and will be recommending Riad Contessa to any friends who make the trek to Marrakech.

The place looks nice and is in a good location although the streets to get here are very run down and smelly.

Cons: I paid extra to get a Superior room which had a sofa bed along with the main double bed because my son said he might could join us. He did come with us but Contessa insisted on charging for an extra person in room despite the fact that he was using the sofa bed. I found this very unprofessional. The weather is very hot and there is no swimming pool here so I recommend getting a place with a pool.

The authenticity of the design of the facility and the rooms. So so so so beautiful

Cons: The walk way to the hotel, so many cats, dog poop, the smell of the area. But when you get into the hotel its paradise

Beautiful riad in the heart of the medina near 10 minutes from jamal el fnaa square. welcoming and relaxing, I had already had other experiences in riads in Marrakech but the Riad Contessa went beyond my expectations. Cleanliness everywhere, excellent Moroccan dinner and breakfast on the terrace. Thanks to all the staff and in particular to Asmaa and Marouan.

The staff from the moment we walked in was very attentive. The property manager Marouan was super friendly, since it was our first time in Marrakech, he explained in detail how everything worked, and gave us amazing recommendations. We will definitely return to Riad Contessa on the next visit.

Riad Contessa offers very beautiful rooms in a great location. We had the large family room which was superbly decorated & well adapted for 3 to 4 family members. The breakfasts on the rooftop were lovely. Most importantly, Marwan, the manager on site, truly cared for his guests & made our stay very comfortable. Thank you.

Beautiful riad that was reformed just 10 months ago. All spotless clean and new. Nice decoration. Our contact person (Marouane) was extremely nice and helpful. Great location: quiet but still close to the busy hubs.

Cons: Sometimes the rooms felt a little claustrophobic because there are no exterior windows in the rooms. But that’s the architecture of all Ryads and what keeps them so fresh in the summer, so basically something to know before you choose one. Tea /coffee in the rooms would have been a nice touch.

Stunning! This is a hidden gem. I have stayed and explored countless Riad in Marrakech, from expensive to cheap, modern and old. This place is stunning. Beautifully traditional and authentic. The rooms are magnificent. The food excellent. The service top notch. When we arrived, we were greeted with tea and ‘welcome, this is now your home!’ And the price is remarkable. I have stayed in places three, four, five times the price of here and they did not come close. This is now my favourite Riad in Marrakech. Highly, highly recommended.

Quiet, clean, and tidy; we stayed in the Suite Contessa, which has a history of over 100 years. The carved walls are fantastic, making it feel like living in a museum, truly great value; the shower water is hot, and there's a wall-mounted heater, very convenient; the toilet and bathroom are separate, which is particularly good; our suite has a courtyard with beautifully carved wooden decorations overhead, excellent lighting design, two large sofas that are extremely comfortable; the living room and bedroom are also carpeted, with an overall elegant style, we really like it.

Cons: breakfast,if add some fresh fruits and vegetables will be wonderful. And the swimming pool is just under planning, it will be great if the Riad had one

We really loved our stay in Riad Contessa! It is situated in a great location in the heart of Marrakesh. It has a charming atmosphere and refined furniture. The rooms are so beautiful, peaceful and clean and the beds are really comfortable. The staff is very welcoming, we really felt at home. The breakfast is delicious and varied. Something I won't forget is the amazing terrace and its view. I absolutely recommend Riad Contessa which has stolen our heart!

Cons: There is nothing I didn't appreciate

The Riad Contessa is beautiful, my room was large and clean. I arrived by taxi near the door of the Riad, I had dinner at the riad and I found 5 star service and quality. The Riad is located in the center of the Medina a few minutes walk from Jamal El Fnaa square. It was an exceptional experience thank you Asmaa for making us feel at home.

Magnificent Riad, truly fascinating with a beautiful chandelier that makes the evening magical. The very professional staff made our holiday perfect. The Riad Contessa is located in the heart of the Medina but we arrived by taxi almost at the door of the Riad. The neighborhood is clean and safe, we are a few meters from the royal palace. We had truly delicious traditional Moroccan dishes for dinner at the riad. I will definitely return to this wonderful riad, thank you Asmaa and Marwan for your kindness and courtesy.
