Riad Matham

This is definitely the best Riad in Marrakesh! Hicham was just the absolute best. He picked us up from the taxi drop off point to take us to the Riad located within the Medina. He absolutely would not let us carry any bags and insisted on carrying them all himself as we have been travelling. He showed us key points of interest along the way and gave us some good recommendations on places to go in Marrakesh. Upon arrival at the Riad, Hicham showed us around, gave us tea and biscuits and gave us information on the Medina including a map. He also insisted we sit and drink our tea as he carried our bags to our room. He also helped us organise a trip to the Zagora desert for the following day. Leaving the Riad the following day to go to the Zagora desert, he woke up early to make us breakfast before we left and took us to the pick up area. The Riad itself was very beautiful, with tasteful rooms and well equipped amenities. The bed was very comfortable and the aircon worked great! I can understand (from other reviews) some guests may have found the traditional Riad style rooms to not be extremely sound proof but we didn’t have this issue at all and our room was very quiet. The rooftop area was really a point of difference and the additional viewing platform placed the Riad a level above the rest of the Medina which had excellent views of the surrounding city. There were also two little tortoises running around which was so cute and added to the charm of the Riad. If we ever come back to Marrakesh I will 100% be staying here again.
