  PURE CLASS AUTHENTIC RIAD EXPERIENCE!

  18 Feb 2026

  Wow! We had the most beautiful Marrakesh experience at Riad Dar Beija on the rooftop suite for my 50th birthday & Valentines day celebration ♥️ This place was like a dream come true. We literally had the whole top 2 floors to ourselves, our own penthouse suite overlooking Marrakesh old town. Our room was preened to absolute perfection on arrival, such a beautiful touch for my special celebration. Everything at Dar Beija has been carefully thought through with attention to detail. The place is spotless & clean with beautiful aromas circulating throughout. A lovely traditional breakfast is served 8am-9.30am in the most authentic & charismatic dining area.We cannot thank Bridgette/Said & the amazing team enough for being so welcoming, attentive, friendly & attending to all our needs including the unreal Kosy Spa experience, rooftop Kosy Bar & organising our sunrise Hot Air balloon ride 🔥 If you're looking for the ULTIMATE CLASSY Marrakesh Riad experience in the Old Town. Dar Beija is the perfect choice. Positioned within walking distance of the Bahia Palace (2 mins) & Jemaa el Fna square (12 mins)You will not regret staying at the Dar Beija. It has been sympathetically renovated with pure class decor throughout whilst retaining it's authenticity. They make you feel like King & Queen as guests. Thankyou so much 💓

  A beautiful location to explore Marakesh

  02 Jan 2026

  You step off the street and the tranquility of this beautiful building is wonderful. The team are really welcoming and we had a suite on the top floor which was beautiful. They offer a wonderful breakfast and have a fabulous roof terrace you can relax on with views of the city and the Atlas Mountains. The rooms are really stylish and clean. There are no real toiletries but there is a hairdryer, iron and a safe. My only advice is don’t book the desert quad biking through the hotel. We had a poor experience from start to finish. The driver had really loud music on, stopped at an argon oil shop unsolicited to get us to buy things and his car smelt really strongly of petrol. The quad bikes were in poor condition, our guide spoke no English and there was no health and safety. We paid for an hour and barely had 45 minutes. It’s less of a desert and more like a wasteland. We were going to have dinner there but it felt unclean so we came straight back.

  Charming and homey

  15 Nov 2023

  The road is located in the Medina and is walkable to many attractions like the Bahia palace and Jemaa el-Fna Square (which is an experience!) Bridget and her staff made us feel welcome, made us amazing breakfasts and helped arrange transportation when needed. Bridget’s recommendations on things to see were incredibly helpful. The rooftop terrace is the perfect place to watch the sun set (or rise) and listen to the call to prayer from the various mosques in the city. Highly recommended!

  Great riad experience!!

  15 Nov 2023

  Cannot recommend this riad enough. First, it’s beautiful and comfortable and has a rooftop terrace with great views of Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains. Second, the owner Bridgette is a sweetheart who will help you with everything from getting rides to recommending restaurants and spas. Third, the staff is warm and wonderful. Located in the heart of the medina! Many Americans are reluctant to stay in a riad but this is the place for you. Way better than a hotel!

  A little gem 💎

  28 Jan 2023

  We arrived in the dark and have to admit that when we approached the front door down a narrow dark alley I wondered if I’d made a mistake when booking, however as soon as the door opened all I could think was wow!!!!! Karim gave us a kind greeting and couldn’t do enough for us during our stay, he’s a credit to the Riad. Although Karims English wasn’t fluent he used a translation app to ensure he could answer all our questions and be as informative as possible. Our room was just as described on booking.com, had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and decorated to an authentic Moroccan vibe, we particularly liked to wooden window shutters and the shower was lovely and hot which was needed on the cold mornings and evenings. The terrace has incredible views and we loved hearing the calls to prayer from the surrounding mosques, we sat and listened on the terrace several times during our stay, it really added that extra ambience.The Riad is charming, very Moroccan feel throughout, not spoilt by modern design and furniture which is exactly what we wanted when staying in Marrakesh.Najia greeted us with fabulous breakfasts throughout our stay and this lady is just beautiful inside and out, she made us feel like we were here family, a kind soul and couldn’t do enough for us. Najia ensured the Riad was spotlessly clean along with our room throughout our stay. We didn’t use the pool as it wasn’t heated and the weather was too cold, it did look spotlessly clean and gave the riad an extra special feel just by looking at it. Siad the manager communicated with us throughout our stay via WhatsApp and in person and he is a delightful gentleman who genuinely cared that we enjoyed our stay, he kindly organised our airport transfers and on Najias day off ensured we still had a fabulous breakfast. What I loved about being here is the respect that Siad, Najia and Karim spoke of one another, this added that homely feel to our stay, we felt we were staying with one big family. The fantastic location of the Riad is less than 2 minutes walk to Bahia Palace and approx 8 minutes walk to souks and 10 minute walk to Jemma el Fna. We would most definitely return without a second thought. This really is a gem of a property 💎
