Riad Irene

El sitio es inmejorable y los propietarios son muy muy majos. Nada más llegar nos explicaron cómo movernos por Marrakech, nos dieron consejos y mapas y en todo momento han estado pendientes de saber cómo estábamos. El desayuno no es muy abundante, pero es más que suficiente, para todos los gustos. La decoración de las habitaciones es perfecta y tanto en la primera planta como en la terraza hay sofás muy cómodos, perfectos para sent**** y leer antes de ir a dormir. La localización está bien, aunque con tanta callejuela cuesta no perderse.

We were met from the airport by a pre arranged taxi which took us to the walled city, we were then met by Abdu who took us through the winding narrow streets to the Road. Once inside we were met with a calming inner courtyard (an oasis of tranquility) The room was very comfortable, shower was good, breakfast was very nice, local breads, jams and pancakes accompanied by tea/coffee and fresh juice. The roof terrace is very nice, good to see the sunrise from there. There’s plenty of space here for all the guests. It’s only a short walk to the start of the souks (around 10 mins).

We had 3 nights in this very beautiful riad. Beautiful interieur all over the riad. Very helpful and friendly hosts. The riad was situated in a quiet and Secure area. Very nice and beautiful rooftopgarden. And a good breakfast. Thet have our best recommendations

Superb hosts Pascal and Irene. Helpful local staff at charming Riad. Close to Medina gate and place larouss- gateway to souks. Pay attention to land markers (for me it was a pair of white cats) or you will lose yourself in maze of medina. Beware of local children- they will badger you and offer help, just politely decline. Food and shopping closeby at pl. Larouss but try out stalls outside medina gate for shopping and food if you're adventurous.

We travel abroad often and can honestly say that the hospitality is unmatched! The owner, Pascal, helped us arrange a transfer to and from the airport, which was such a stress reliever. Pascal met the taxi outside of the medina to show us to the riad. He provided us with an extremely helpful map to navigate the area, warned us about potential scams, recommended excellent restaurants, booked an excursion for us, and went above and beyond all of our expectations. The room was beautiful and perfect for our needs -- we were a party of two. We took advantage of the common areas, especially the rooftop terrace. Irene, Noelle, and Abdul were also extremely friendly. The breakfasts were delicious. We made a reservation for dinner one night, which was also excellent. They not only met but also anticipated our every need. If you want a more authentic stay rather than a booking at a chain hotel, Riad Irene is ideal. The hosts spoke many languages fluently, including English, which was so helpful to us with our severely limited knowledge of French and Darija.

Super friendly and exteremly knowlegable owners. My Essaouira suite was fabulous, common areas are splendid , breakfast was very good

The Riad is beautiful and just as described and in the pics. Irene and Pascal are excellent hosts. The staff is very helpful. Meals at the Riad were delicious. They arranged transportation and offered tips on excursions.

The Riad is beautiful. Irene, Pascal and the staff are amazing. Breakfast and dinner at the Riad were great but they also offered suggestions for other nearby dining options. They had a taxi set up for airport transfers and other things I wanted to do.

The Riad Irene is really beautiful. Better than the photos. The people who work there are really nice and helpful. We only ate breakfast at the riad so cannot comment on their other food. My wife and myself both really enjoyed our stay. However, my wife did comment that she would not have felt safe returning to the Riad alone at night. It is difficult to find but we pinned it on google maps, which helps. In the small dark alleys around the riad, you do get youths hanging around and they were never any bother to us as a couple, but I can understand a solo female feeling nervous. That said, if you are a couple or male I would highly recommend staying here. Easy to walk everywhere which keeps the cost down, and it is very atmospheric and truly Moroccan.
