Amazing hosts, but bedbugs an issue!

The overwhelming positive of Dar Nour El Houda is Noureddine and Sara who are both so lovely and welcoming, going beyond the call of duty of your average hosts. I would recommend using the offered transfer service as you'll struggle to find the riad without it. Unfortunately in my case the driver was not there upon my arrival. Thankfully I purchased a SIM before I left the airport and after waiting at the meeting spot for 20 minutes I decided to call Noureddine. My flight was late and even though they had my flight details the driver had gone to do another transfer! All up I had to wait over an hour outside the terminal before a driver turned up. This isn't the fault of Dar Nour El Houda but of the drivers they contract for this service. The other thing I feel obliged to mention is that later the same day I checked out, I discovered I had developed a significant number of small red insect bites, predominantly on my neck and back. These are in lines and clusters - consistent with bedbugs, and have subsequently started to itch, again consistent with bedbugs. This does not reflect on the cleanliness of Dar Nour El Houda - bedbugs don't care about cleanliness. Given where these bites are located, being exposed to bedbugs at Dar Nour El Houda is however the only explanation that is plausible. This is a most unfortunate and frustrating occurrence and Dar Nour El Houda will need to get a professional exterminator in to address this otherwise no doubt others will soon suffer as well.

Best Riad

Ich war das erstemal in Marrakesch und hatte so ein Glück in diesem Riad zu landen. Es ist so familiär, freundlich, zuvorkommend organisiert sämtliche Ausflüge, zeigt und erklärt das Labyrint von Marrakesch. Das Frühstück ist einfach der Hammer. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und werden jeden Tag gerreinigt und geputzt. Ich würde 20 Sterne geben wenn ich könnte. Komme immer wieder gerne.

Noureddine and Sara who run the Riad provided the most incredible service we have ever experienced. They were always on hand to offer advice, organise bookings and upon arrival Noureddine even walked us down through the souks to the main square to help us get our bearings around the city centre. The Riad itself is beautiful and peaceful and we would definitely recommend booking dinner at the Riad for one of the nights of your stay. Sara is an incredible cook and we ate up on the rooftops and it was an unforgettable experience. Really can't recommend this Riad enough.

Our stay at Dar Nour El Houda was absolutely fantastic. It is an easy 10 min walk from the main square. The walk is lined with shops and is buzzing with activity. Noureddine and Sara made us feel so welcome, gave us great advice, and made sure we didn’t get too lost on the tiny Medina streets. The rooftop terrace is simply magical with fantastic views of the city. We stayed in the terrace room and would highly recommend doing the same. Also, the breakfast is excellent! We are going to recommend this place to all our friends.

Very nice Riad

This Riad was very nice and the staff extremely welcoming. We were served tea upon arrival and given good information about Marrakech. The room was spacious, airy and clean and had a very good shower. Breakfast was good and they accommodated our need to leave early in the morning for a flight. Location wise, it is excellent - a short walk from some of the main squares and areas in the souqs.

Nourredine es muy amable y facilita informacion con planos y fotos para una mejor localizacion de las distintas areas a visitar. El primer dia nos recibió con un zumo de naranja natural, un té de menta y unos snacks, un detalle que se agradece. Aunque estuvimos en la terraza, disfrutamos de una habitacion suficiente y limpia, comoda cama, y sabanas agradables al tacto. Sara mantenia limpio el lugar y colocaba las cosas....muy atenta.

Dar Nour El Houda-Riad mit wunderbaren Gastgebern!

Zuvorkommende und sehr herzliche Gastgeber den ganzen Aufenthalt über. Ganz tolle Organisation des Transfers vom Flughafen zum Riad und auch zurück. Immer hilfsbereit bei Wünschen und Fragen. Super Wegweisung in der Medina/Souks, weil unser Gastgeber uns das erste Mal begleitet hat, in den Souks. Alle anderen Sehenswürdigkeiten auch leicht gefunden.Haben uns kein einziges Mal verlaufen. Und viele Tips rund um das Leben und ihre Menschen.Abwechslungsreiches Frühstück jeden Tag. Und wenn wir im Riad zu Abend gegessen haben, gab es frisches und mit Liebe zubereitetes Essen, immer eine Überraschung! Unser Zimmer war klein und hübsch und rustikal. Das Terrassenzimmer. Wir bedanken uns ganz herzlich an Noureddine und Sara! Grüße von Hugo und Jennifer

Beautiful, peaceful oasis

I had a great time staying at Dar Nour El-Houda. The building itself is beautiful. We were in the Sirr room, which looks like it was hollowed out of solid stone (though I think it is polished plaster). Very cool and peaceful and relaxing, with beautiful fittings. I looked forward to the breakfasts every morning. They were always delicious and well presented, with something a little different every day, like a different fruit, or a new kind of bread. Best of all, Noureddine was an excellent host. He gave us a very crucial orientation without which we would have been lost three times as much as we were in the end. He was always on hand to help with questions or make suggestions if we wanted them, but also never put any pressure on us. When I lost my purse in a car on the first day of a four day desert trip (after which I was not returning to the riad) and thought I would never see it again Noureddine somehow tracked it down and arranged to have it returned to me during the desert trip. All the contents were still there and the whole thing was nothing short of a miracle! I would absolutely recommend this riad to anyone who was visiting Marrakech.

Great riad. Highly recommended

Can't recommend this place more. It is a beautiful riad in the Medina. The place was clean and the bedroom was comfortable. It has a great terrace on the roof which is very relaxing. The owner Noureddine is so friendly and accommodating. When we first arrived he gave us a very detailed map, recommended some very yummy restaurants and walked us to the main square to ensure we didn't get lost. We went to the restaurant Mristam which had the best chicken tagine. No other restaurants did it the same.

E' come trovarsi casa propria stando a Marrakech

Un riad estremamente grazioso e accogliente, proprio nel cuore della Medina. Se arrivate a piedi non è facilissimo da trovare, dovete guardare i nomi dei vicoli e bussare al portone giusto, ma una voltra dentro sarete ampiamente ripagati dei vostri sforzi. L'accoglienza è estremamente calorosa e qualunque cosa abbiate bisogno troverete sempre qualcuno pronto ad aiutarvi, anche se si tratta di alzarsi alle 3 di notte come nel nostro caso. Sicuramente il miglior hotel del nostro viaggio !!!
