The BEST stay in Marrakech!

Staying at the Source Du Desert was one of the best experiences I've had while traveling. The property was gorgeous, spotless, comfortable and excellent location. Yousuf and the rest of staff were the best: professional, welcoming and just above and beyond accomodating. I would stay here every time visiting Marrakech. HIGHLY recommend it!

Riad tout confort et service au top

Nous avons passé 4 jours extra dans ce Riad moderne, joliment aménagé et décoré. Le gros plus, la terrasse donnant sur un écrin de verdure, un luxe dans la médina. Et que dire du service! Les repas pris sur place, à la demande, étaient royaux. Propreté impeccable. Youssef et son équipe ont été des hôtes 5 étoiles, répondant à tous nos souhaits (excursions, soins, etc..). Bref, nous recommandons vivement.

Oase in der Medina

Individuelles, stylisches, sehr gepflegtes Riad. Tolle Dachterasse mit Mini-Pool. Liegt direkt neben dem Palais Royal uns nähe der Jama el fna. Parken sehr schwierig!!! Sehr zu empfehlen.

Perfektes Riad in bester Lage

Das Riad befindet sich in optimaler Lage zum Jemaâ el Fna, nicht zu weit und nicht zu nah im Trouble. In 10 entspannten Gehminuten erreicht man den Hauptplatz sowie das gesamte Geschehen der Altstadt Zudem gibt es bereits in näherer Umgebung einige Sehenswürdigkeiten (Palais el Badi, Tombeaux Saadiens uvm.). In den kleinen Gassen befinden sich auch zwei hervorragende Lokale um tagsüber relaxed zu essen (FoxArt) oder neben leckeren Speisen auf der sonnigen Dachterasse ein Glas Wein zu genießen (Zwin Zwin). Es empfiehlt sich alles zu Fuß zu erkunden um die Magie dieser Stadt aufzusaugen. Im Riad selbst überzeugt die Kombination der sehr modernen Ausstattung gepaart mit den typisch marokkanischen Stil eines Riads. Auf der Dachterasse gibt es neben dem leckeren Frühstück auch die Möglichkeit in der Sonne zu relaxen und für eine Erfrischung in den kleinen Pool abzutauchen. Bei guten Wetter kann man hier komplett abschalten. Begleitet wird das Ganze durch ein Service Team, welches einem das Gefühl gibt immer für einen da zu sein, ohne immer da zu sein. Dadurch fühlt man sich sehr wohl und auf Anhieb heimisch und es wird auf jeden Wunsch sehr fürsorglich und zuvorkommend reagiert. Zuletzt möchte ich noch hervorheben das der Hotelleiter Youssef den perfekten Gastgeber darstellt. Sowohl die angebotenen Möglichkeiten was zu unternehmen (Quadtour, Hammam o.ä.) als auch die sympathische und angenheme Art machen es einem einfach die Zeit in Marrakesch zu genießen.
