My stay at Ryad El Borj was truly really good! The hotel offers a beautifully serene atmosphere right in the hustle and bustle of Marrakech. While breakfast was good, I felt the lighting in the room could have been improved a bit. Overall, the hospitality from Ali and the team made my experience incredibly special. 🌟

The room was huge and beautifully designed, like a personal palace. However, it could have been better lit and a larger litter bin would have been practical.

My stay at Ryad El Borj was nothing short of amazing! The atmosphere was incredibly serene despite being in the bustling heart of Marrakesh. The location was fantastic, just a quick walk to Jemaa El Fna, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. However, navigating through the narrow streets with luggage can be a bit challenging, so it's a good idea to have assistance.

My stay at Ryad El Borj was nothing short of magical! The riad is an oasis of beauty, with exquisite decor that truly feels like stepping into a dream. The location is perfectly situated just a short stroll from the main square, allowing easy access to all the vibrant life of the Medina while still providing a much-needed escape into tranquility. The only minor hiccup was a bit of noise at night from the interconnected terraces, but it hardly detracted from my overall experience. 🌸✨
