Riad Amin is a tranquil refuge for guests seeking an authentic experience in Marrakech. Just within the walls of the medina, and near the new Royal Palace, this beautiful building is accessible directly by car. The seven en-suite rooms, three junior suites and a luxury suite “Cais Avoub” are decorated in a traditional, authentic Moroccan style. They are adorned with typical rugs and décor yet are air-conditioned with free Wi-Fi. Riad Amin has a large central courtyard and a sun terrace with a sublime backdrop of the Koutoubia mosque and the Atlas mountains. There is also a welcoming pool and Hammam to relax in after the commotion of a day in the medina. Breakfast is served in the patio, dining area or on the terrace and typical local specialities cooked to order. The hotel is just a few minutes walk from the central square, Jamaa El Fna, and the souks.
If you're looking for an authentic escape to Marrakech, guests would heartily recommend Riad Amin. Decorated in a traditional, yet cosy and welcoming style, with warm colours and materials, it has a homely feeling.
The riad is within the medina, which is great for if you're seeking a complete immersion in the real Marrakech. Although Jamaa El Fna is a short walk away, it is in a quieter area which guests appreciate as it offers a respite from the madness, noise and confusion.
Guests find the service to be top class. There is always someone on hand no matter what time of day or night, and it is usually with a sincere smile and real desire to help.
The continental breakfasts seem to tarnish the feeling of authenticity. Guests feel disappointed to be offered a standard European breakfast, which is very basic and not very varied. A small taste of the local culture - even if it's just some freshly squeezed juice - would seem to make a huge difference.
Many guests feel that they pay over and above the odds for certain services, that they could get a lot cheaper elsewhere. The price of the dinner for example, is up to three times more expensive than can be found in the medina and transfers are twice the going rate. Is this the price to pay for a sense of security?
Finding the right temperature seems to be a big task for some guests. The air-conditioning seems to be difficult to regulate and many find the place a bit fresh, particularly out of the searing summer heat. Having enough hot water to go around is also an issue for many.
