It’s Like Having A Local Family to Welcome You.

My mother and I decided to take an impromptu trip to Morocco, and we stayed at Riad Hikaya to get the experience of staying in the Medina. I can’t complement the quality and kindness of the staff enough! If you are interested in having a Riad experience, this is the place. The staff will become like family. My mother, at 88 is not always steady on her feet, but they were super attentive and helpful. The food they serve is excellent! The breakfasts are a feast, and we liked the food so much we ended up eating most of our dinners there as well. You will not be disappointed. If staying in a more sterile hotel is more your speed, then this is not for you. But, if you want a warm and caring experience, I can’t think of a better place to stay. From the start, they gave us tips in negotiating prices in the Souks, they arranged for a top notch guide to help us navigate the markets, and they prepared us for navigating the Medina.

The ONLY place to stay

From the moment we entered the riad it was warm and inviting. Not sure I’ve ever experienced anything like this (in a good way). Each room was creatively decorated and unique. Breakfast was delicious each and every morning.Nada, Abdul and the entire staff felt like family by the time we left. If I could give a better rating than 10 out of 10 I would. Close to everything yet far enough away from the soul…easy walk. Hope to return some day.

Stayed for a week and was well looked after by all the staff, who were attentive and helpful on the area and arranged transportation for us on arrival and departure. While a little distance away from the Souk, 15 min walk, it’s not too far but offers a peaceful stay. Plenty of food places around the area and taxi nearby. Bus stop 5 min walk. Lovely sweet breakfast, often more food than we could eat. Pool takes the edge off the heat. And the terrace looks over the south of the city towards the Atlas Mountains, which are visible on a clear day.

A beautiful oasis

We stayed in this riad for a full week (our first stop in a longer trek in Morocco) and I cannot say enough positive things about Riad Hikaya. An unassuming exterior in the relatively quiet Kasbah neighborhood leads to a gorgeous common area with a pool and a fountain, the latter adorned with fresh flower petals every day. Our room was beautiful, lushly decorated with beautiful details making everything feel cared for (a custom-made box to hide a heat/air unit? Great idea). The bathroom was incredible, with beautiful tile and marble work. Many of the staff have been there for years and it shows in how warm and welcome we felt there. The food is delicious. Breakfast became a wonder tour of different dishes. If you plan to eat dinner you should let them know in advance, as they will shop for ingredients in the market the very same day. Logistically, it’s a relatively short walk to the chaos that the Medina is known for, and has an uncommon benefit in being accessible by car. I cannot recommend a stay here more, and should we find ourselves in Marrakech, will be staying here again.

The Riad and the staff at Hikaya were wonderful. The space is an oasis of calm in a bustling city. Beautifully decorated and serene, with a lovely roof terrace to enjoy the Moroccan sun. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful (so many pastries) and had variety everyday. The staff were a perfect balance of always being available but also left you to enjoy the peace! Nada and Wadia and all the staff were super welcoming and we would return in a heartbeat x

We had dinner twice at the Riad and it was absolutely delicious. When it comes to the service - it was seriously amazing! The staff were so thoughtful, personable and kind. The rooms were very clean, and the Riad itself was very well kept. We highly recommend this Riad for those traveling to Morocco. You will be enraptured by the decor and ambience of this Riad!

Can’t say enough about this beautiful Riad. Most importantly, the wonderful staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. The rooms are beautifully decorated, we enjoyed breakfast and dinner on the rooftop, they arranged tours and taxis when we needed them. It’s one of the few Riads in the Casbah that a car can pull right up to so you don’t have to get out and navigate the small alleys.

The most beautiful stay. The hosts made us feel incredibly welcome and were so attentive to our every need. We really felt so at home. The riad itself is stunning, the detail and design is breathtaking and completely clean. Our room was tidied and refreshed daily. The breakfast was amazing and massive! Loved trying lots of different traditional bits. For the last day, I wasn’t very well so breakfast was brought to my room at around 3pm! Would recommend to anyone.

The breakfast was amazing. The staff were EXCEPTIONAL. Truly outstanding. They went through an entire map of Marrakech with me offering amazing suggestions. Overall don’t hesitate to book here. The decor is also incredible. I stayed at 6 riads during my time in Marrakech this stood out among the rest as a truly magical experience. Loved every moment. So generous. So hospitable.

Remarkable friendly staff. Staff was more like a welcoming family you haven’t seen in awhile. They were very hospitable and looked out for me even walking me into city one day to help guide me around. The property itself like the name Hikaya or story is definitely magical and like a dream when you enter.

100%+ recommended. Excellent overall.

Welcomed by the manager and staff. Spoiled by them with a beautiful Riad, patio, pool and homemade breakfast. Got the best tips and support to arrange fair transportations and even delivery of legit argan oil to our Riad. Really felt at home, safe and escaped from the noise. The hospitality and sevice is unmatched, you really feel as a guest but at the same time part of the Riad’s family
