“Thank you Mustafa, Abdu, Abla and Fatimazarah for making our stay so memorable.”
+We had an amazing stay at the Riad - from the friendliest most helpful team, to the accommodation and the fabulous breakfasts - everything was perfect! In the intensity of the medina, Riad Alena was an oasis of calm and relaxation.
−Nothing.

“Lovely Riad - peace and quiet after a day exploring”
+The location of this Riad is perfect and the staff very kind and helpful. We loved the simple decoration of the Riad and the fact there are only four rooms - it was so nice to come back after a full day exploring. Breakfast was delicious, homemade with some moroccan dishes and fresh orange juice. Definitely recommend this lovely Riad.
−The rooms are a bit small but the Riad is very charming and comfortable.

“Marvelous Medina Stay”
+Riad Alena is a quiet oasis in the hustle and bustle of the Medina. The staff was absolutely lovely. The breakfasts were delicious and served on the rooftop. Tailored to our tastes and times they were perfect. The riad itself is a beautiful homey space. We instantly felt comfortable there. So unique is the location that meeting staff outside the Medina is a really smart idea. We always felt safe in the area, even after dark. We have no problem with stairs but if you do you should ask for the room on the ground floor. We would highly recommend staying at Riad Alena.
−The only thing that was bothersome was the smoke from the fireplaces. It was quite cool and rainy when we were there so fires were lit regularly and though they made things cozy, they produced a lot of smoke that lingered and found it's way into the rooms. Maybe it was the wood or maybe the chimneys need cleaning but we did find that the smell of smoke was quite strong at times.

“A beautiful riad with the most amazing staff”
+We had a wonderful stay at Riad Alena. By far the most outstanding part of this place is the beautiful staff Mustapha, Abla, Abdul & all. They were so friendly and welcoming and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. I would definitely return
−Unfortunately we experienced freak weather for Marrakech (first few days) and the place was quite cold and damp.

“A tucked away cosy safe place to stay within the Medina - attentive, friendly hosts and great food”
+This is an oasis in the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, a small riad of 4 rooms, based within the Medina with a cosy roof top for outdoor dining. I travelled with my daughter and felt safe walking around and about from here. The care from the team was exceptional - replying promptly to emails, arranging transfers to the airport, recommending guides/places to visit/hammam spa. Abla cooked for us on the first night and it remains one of our favourite meals, along with the breakfast shakshuka. The whole team though - Mustapha, Abla, Fatima, Abdo made us feel like part of their family and were always happy to help and chat. I'd definitely recommend this if you are looking for somewhere with Moroccan charm, comfort and hospitality.
