Great location, nice staff, regular hotel.

Location is great and their staff is very friendly and helpful. However, the hotel room is quite poor. There is an important lack of maintanance like there are no towel racks, toilet paper racks, there is no body cleaner only shampoo, or humidity on the shower walls (see pictures) but I have to say everything was clean.
We had no towel rack

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Riad Faraj. The staff was very accommodating and helpful and the dinner we had there was GREAT. On the downside, our room was very small and the floor mats beside the bed needed to be cleaned. The shower didn’t drain properly so we stood in a pool of water while we bathed. For the price, it was satisfactory and we did enjoy our stay. Thank you!

I stayed at the Riad Faraj from October 13-15 , the staff was so friendly and welcoming upon my arrival. I was happy to get a room on first floor right across the pool. The aesthetic of the Riad is extremely modern , authentic beautiful Moroccan style. Rooms were clean and spacious. I love the staff here they are so friendly and helpful. The breakfast is so tasty , nice presentation and beautiful view. Genuinely so soothing to eat your breakfast while relaxing in the peaceful ambience. Highly recommend this RIAD to anyone travelling to Marrakesh, it is also located in the perfect area. Will definetly be coming back here any time I stay in the city .

The road is beautiful! Nouhaila was amazing as well as Zacarías ! I truly had no complaints other then the sheets in my room were not clean and when I left my key to have the towels changed when I returned the same towels were there. They did immediately noted minor repairs needed and did it on the spot! Breakfast was great! The tea was great! The pool area beautiful and everything about this place was perfect. Walking distance to everything. Pick up for excursion were down the street or a 5 min walk. I truly enjoyed staying here.

During our four-day stay at Riad Faraj, we were thoroughly impressed. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and assistance throughout our visit (Zakaria, Idris & Nuheyla). Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted with an introduction to Marrakech's activities and treated to traditional mint tea. Though our initial room had a minor issue, the staff promptly upgraded us to a nicer & bigger room, ensuring our comfort and satisfaction. Overall, our experience was exceptional, and we appreciated the thoughtful gestures from the Riad Faraj team.

Comfortable and close to the centre

It was pleasant to stay in this riad. It is within 5 minutes walk to Jamaa el Fna Square and a good walking distance to other attractions, therefore we did not need to book any taxi at any point. The staffs are all very nice and accommodating and I am very pleased with my short break in Marrakesh. The riad itself is clean and very comfortable. The rooftops are a great way to relax and catch more sun. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner for a fee. Delicious breakfast is included with our stay and it is a good way to try authentic Moroccan breakfast. We asked for a shuttle transfer to and from the airport and it was sorted out quickly. In summary, me and my husband are very happy with our stay and definitely recommend this place !

The Riad is average, not bad, not great. It was reasonably clean. We didn't get the room that was in the photo but I'm coming to see that seems to be common practice in many accommodations. The breakfast was ok. There is only 1 staff member/owner it seems, and we didn't get an energetic welcoming vibe unfortunately. The location is down a road with construction, but it was well lit at night which was comforting. It's quick access to the main road when dragging luggage on dirt roads.
