Riad Dar Zaman

We loved our stay at Riad Dar Zaman. The host/owner, Peter, was lovely and a great source of local knowledge. The staff, Hassan, Hamza and Adil, were fantastic. The property is in the perfect location, close to the old town markets but still in a quiet and secluded area. Was a little tricky to find on the first day. We would highly recommend using the airport transfer offered by the property. It’s slightly more expensive than a taxi but is well worth it to be brought directly to the riad. Accommodation was cozy, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Food was delicious, especially breakfast. We stayed in the room on the terrace. It was quiet and very private. The shower was a generous size and, although the room was compact, it was well laid out and had everything we needed. I would recommend this property to anyone travelling to Marrakech.

Beautiful small Riad. The staff is exceptional and really catered to our needs. The food was excellent. Can’t say enough about Karima’s cooking and Hamza’s and Adil’s pampering and wealth of information. They made our first visit to Marrakech a much better experience. Also, there was a great group of guests at the Riad. We all became friends and ventured out together. Overall a great experience.

The riad is in a great location in the Medina, with a beautiful relaxing terrace and other nice indoor seating areas. It’s a bit challenging to find (like everything!), but Hassan gave us a thorough explanation of how to get around using landmarks and the maps.me app. The bed was comfortable, and since there are only 4 rooms it was really pretty quiet. It’s a nice break from the craziness of the city! A nice touch was the free filtered water - the plastic bottles really start to pile up otherwise. We loved all the suggestions of things to do and places to eat!

The staff were wonderful. Thoughtful, unassuming, gracious, helpful, courteous. The food was AMAZING, I need to eat gluten free food and we're not big meat eaters and they accommodated all our needs and the breakfasts were tasty and nutritious, the 3 course evening meal we had was the best food we had in Morocco - fresh, delicious and lovingly prepared. The decor was stunning, it felt luxurious and homely. It was all wonderful and made our holiday really special.

The staff were lovely and so helpful. We were delayed in arriving and a meal was still provided late at night and Adel even helped to book us train tickets for our onward travel. The room was small but comfortable and nicely decorated. The location was great for us. It is between the new town and 10 minutes walk from the crazy part of the Medina. This meant that the streets were full of locals and were hassle free compared to a lot of the Medina.
