Riad le Clos des Arts

If I could give this riad a 7, I would.....but we will have to settle for a gushing 5. The riad is a haven of peace and tranquility. The staff are superb and the hospitality, consideration and assistance are astounding. The owner said they treated the staff as family and it shows in everything they do. Guests are made to feel like family too. Located in the narrow, winding lanes of the Medina, it offers both seclusion from and access to everything you might want to see in Marrakech. The staff are happy to share their immense knowledge of the city and take time to meet and know their guests. They looked to ensure everything went well from the moment we flew in until we returned to the airport We dined at the hotel for three nights of our six nights, two of which felt like private dining. A different menu is published each day and the food was excellent. I could name names - pick out the aspects that made our stay an absolute pleasure, but that would be unfair to those behind the scenes whose names we never knew. They well deserve their presence in the top tier of places to stay in Marrakech.

This place was a lovely sanctuary in the middle of the bustle of Marrakesh. Upon arrival we were greeted by a very friendly host who took a lot of time to help us understand how best to get around the city. This was useful and appreciated. Breakfast on the terrace in the sunshine was a real treat. There is a sun deck with a pool (although that’s freezing!) the room felt authentic and was well appointed. Definitely worth staying at if your looking for a Riad in Marrakesh.

We just returned from a full week at Riad Clos des Arts, renting out the entire riad for our family, and had an excellent experience from start to finish. The staff was incredibly helpful even before we arrived. Once we got there, the service was truly outstanding. Everyone was kind, attentive, and flexible with our schedule. They made everything feel easy and seamless, which let us focus on enjoying our time together. We especially appreciated the care and attentiveness of Sadek, Zachariah, Yaseen, and Valeria—each of them made a real effort to ensure we were comfortable and well looked after throughout the stay. A highlight of the trip was the surprise 80th birthday celebration we planned for our dad. The team went above and beyond to help us pull it off and make it special. Their support and thoughtfulness really stood out and meant a lot to our whole family. The riad itself is beautiful—thoughtfully designed and well maintained. The location couldn’t be better: tucked just steps away from the Medina, but remarkably quiet and peaceful. After exploring the city each day, the rooftop pool was a perfect place to cool down and relax. We’re very grateful to the entire team at Riad Clos des Arts. Their professionalism, hospitality, and attention to detail made this a trip we’ll always remember. We’d gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Marrakech.

We had a multi-generational family gathering in Marrakech, and took the entire space at Riad Clos des Arts in Marrakech. We found the facilities to be beautiful, and the staff attentive and helpful. Rooms and common spaces were tastefully appointed well-equipped. In particular, we appreciated the attentiveness of Sadek, Zachariah, Yaseen, and Valeria during our trip. They took the time to learn our names, and made us feel very welcome. We celebrated an 80th birthday with dinner there, and the staff went above and beyond to make it a beautiful event; we all enjoyed it so much! The hotel is located on a quiet street off the medina.

It was a wonderful experience to spend some days and nights in this exquisite Riad, which has been so thoughtfuly and beautifully designed and artistically decorated by its owners and managers, Valerie and Denise. From the careful induction meeting introducing us to the Riad and the Medina, to the delights of the in-house Hamman and the treat of eating breakfast and the occasional three course evening meal on the roof terrace, everything about our stay was exceptional. Located just a short walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa, Marrakech's central square, theRiad is perfectly situated nearto all the man sights of the medina, and is a wonderful oasis of calm after the heat, hustle and the bustle of the tiny alleyways of the medina and the souk. A wonderful place. Go if you can!

An early 40th birthday stay with my bestie and I don't think we could have booked a better hotel if we tried. Genuinely one of the most beautiful hotels I've ever stayed in and a true reflection of the famous Morrocan hospitality. Breakfast was perfect and different every day. There's only 9 rooms so it feels small and intimate but every whim is catered for. Lots of lovely communal areas that were never busy. The rooftop pool was lovely. Really fantastic location, a 5 minute walk from the main square and lots of lovely streets and independent shops surround the riad. There's not many places I immediately want to go back to but this hotel is one of them!
