AMAZING! The best part of the Medina! - We were a bit hesitant before booking 5D4N in a riad we've never been to but we can tell you it was the best choice ever and this riad did... read more not disappoint one bit! First, we were greeted by Muhammad the owner where we dropped off and had a quick walk to the riad. When you walk in, you can already smell a mix of herb and citrus and this is the same throughout the riad. It's like walking into a whole new different place compared to the somewhat plain streets in the medina.

We loved the cleanliness of the hotel and although the room was small as you would expect from all riads, it was very comfortable with strong AC and again it smelled great. Most importantly, the bed was SO comfortable and I can say this bed is equivalent to most of the 5-star hotel beds. The shower amenities were great too and they even have a vase of fresh roses in the room. Yes, the room can be dark but you don't really spend the day in the room anyway, since you will be busy exploring the medina or outside at the pool area and the rest of the raid, which is super Instagrammable with the design and all.

On food - Muhammad was there every day and shared great local food recommendations (not the touristy ones) and was super helpful with whatever we needed (e.g. water, early breakfast etc.). Breakfast was one of the bests we had in Morocco with great variety - and we looked forward to it every morning! In addition, we also find the staff there very welcoming.

I will definitely recommend Riad Botanica who is going to Marrakech for the first time as I can reassure you they won't be disappointed. Thanks for the great service and stay Muhammad and we hope to come back again!

  Absolute gem in the centre of Marrakech!  - Absolute gem in the centre of Marrakech! Beautifully decorated, the best beds you will in the whole of Morocco, and very attentive staff. The owners are a lovely couple from... read more Australia and welcome you as long time friends. I highly recommend this place!! Wish i could have stayed longer!

  A slice of heaven amidst the craziness of Marrkesch - This riad is a little slice of heaven amongst the craziness of Marrakech.

It’s spotlessly clean, newly renovated and beautifully decorated - but the best thing for... read more us were the huge and extra comfortable beds! Best nights sleep ever!

It has a great location very close to all the attractions, souks, gardens etc - but it offers a quiet and restful haven from the hustle and bustle.

The owners Mohamed and Angela are warm and welcoming - and beyond helpful - we got lost and Mohamed came to meet us at midnight

Mohamed arranged everything for us including trips to the mountains, transfers - he couldn’t have been more helpful and kind

We will definitely return
