The Riad is beautiful but some of the areas around it were severely damaged by the earthquake. Walked through/past some dodgy masonry. Allan and M are great hosts but A has not been well and we didn't really get introduced to the Riad itself nor the services they offer - which we would have used more had we known about them. Such an interesting place.

The perfect location!

Riad El Zohar is the ideal place to stay in Marrakech. Allan and the staff were very helpful even before we arrived, with Allan organising a smooth airport transfer for us despite the fact that I left it very last minute to request this service! We were welcomed warmly to the Riad by Radi who not only gave us helpful information about Marrakech but also showed us to a bureaux de change to exchange our money. This was such a thoughtful touch as the medina is a vibrant maze and it takes a little while to get your bearings. Marrakech is a bustling, exciting city and to have somewhere so peaceful to unwind after a busy day was essential. All that while still being in the heart of things! The Riad itself is beautiful. It has all of the little luxuries you would need from a hotel whilst also retaining the features that let you appreciate its age and history. We especially enjoyed spending time in the plunge pool, the roof terrace (amazing views of stars and sunsets from up there), and the cosy games room. We had dinner in the Riad on our first night and I would fully recommend this as well. In terms of quality and value for money we both agreed this was the best meal we had during our stay. The breakfast is also fantastic. I couldn't recommend Riad El Zohar enough and wouldn't look to stay anywhere else on a visit to Marrakech.

We had a fantastic time staying at the Riad El Zohar and the owners Allan and Malika Crump were the perfect friendly hosts. It is an oasis and hidden gem in the centre of the Medina. Riad is charming and lots of character. Rooftop terrace is a perfect place to relax and enjoy a dinner. Transport to and from the Riad was organised by the hosts and was perfect. Staff were exceptional and the ladies prepared delicious breakfasts etc. Special thanks to Morad who went out of his way to give us an orientation tour of the local area. Thanks to Erradi for his organisation and his humour. Overall a wonderful and authentic experience at Riad El Zohar and very highly recommended.

The Riad was good and the hosts were exceptional! They were so friendly and helpful that we felt like we were staying with family. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was pretty good. The only issue we had was the aircon was not working in our room. Otherwise, our stay at the Riad was great!

We arrived slightly earlier than planned but were welcomed by Allan and his staff with open arms. I can't find the words to write how perfect our stay was. The property is beautiful and right in the middle of the action. Allan is very welcoming and his knowledge of the area and local recommendations are amazing. I think we ended up doing almost everything Allan recommended and had such a good time as a result. If you're looking for a place to stay in Marrakech, look no further. You've found the perfect place! We will definitely be back!

I truly could not have had a better stay. The property is BEAUTIFUL and so well maintained. The staff is the absolute best- so sweet and attentive. My boy, RADI is 10/10. Allan is an absolute gem and provided the best local recommendations- none of them ever disappointed. I cannot say enough good things about this property and these folks- I was a solo traveler, and they really helped in making this a perfect trip. The property itself is very centrally located in the heart of the medina, but still maintains an extraordinary peacefulness. Walkable to the local souks, gardens and my absolute favorite little spot, Cafe Arabe. Beautifully decorated rooms surrounding a gorgeous plunge pool and a relaxing terrace. Absolutely looking forward to staying there again.

Wonderful riad right in the centre of the Medina. Everything is very walkable. The owners Allan and his wife are wonderful hosts who really care about their guests. When we arrived he spent over an hour explaining the area and giving recommendations. Then he walked us over to the cafe for lunch so we wouldn’t get lost! Once you get used to the area it’s surprisingly simple to find your way around. Do not hesitate to book this property. The staff are also very welcoming.
