"With so many riads to choose from, we were delighted that we picked Assakina. Stylish, yet authentic decor gave us the 'wow' factor, offering tranquility amongst the mayhem of the medina."

Marc & Jodie, London

"A little bit of Heaven!!! Thank you."

Theresa, Essex

"After only 3 days away, we feel like we've been gone two weeks! We had such a lovely relaxing stay at the Riad and hope to be back sooner rather than later. Thanks for all your advice on where to shop, where to eat and how to spend our time. Thanks also for the little things that made us feel so pampered and well taken care of - fruit every day, tea on the roof, tours of the souk...Thanks for everything!"

Rivanna & Nadine, London

"We feel so lucky to have trawled through numerous riads on the internet and to have picked what we're sure must be one of the very best! We love everything about the place- the decor is absolutely stunning with such exquisite attention to detail, the terrace is so romantic and the team are all such lovely people. You have made us feel that nothing is too much trouble and that you genuinely care about us."

Alistair & Marielle, Buckinghamshire

"A friend and I stayed here for four nights and had a totally fabulous time - we really couldn't fault it...The inclusive breakfast was sumptuous - a huge selection, including freshly squeezed melon and peach juices, cooked breakfast, local pastries and more."

Carole, Herts

"The free Hipmarrakech App has proved amazing for our clients. It gives them confidence to navigate the medina knowing they can always find their way back our house, even with NO data roaming switched on. Further it locates many restaurants in Marrakech that our guests like (some of which give discounts to those with the App), and then helps them find their way back to the riad easily. Further, they can also book excursions in or around Marrakech at short notice."
