The most beautiful calming Oasis right in the centre of the hustle and bustle of Marrakech. It's ideally located near to the Ben Youseef college meaning it's almost impossible to get lost. Staff were delightful and couldn't do enough for you. No breakfast location could be beaten, roof terrace looking across the city and mountains sipping on amazingly fresh orange... More

Brilliant hotel all you could ask for in Marrakech. Make sure you advise them to organise the airport pick up as taxi drops you at edge and you always get a guy offering to take you there which you absolutely need or you'd not find it. They'll then try and rip you off for 30 Euro, pay 10 maximum. Best... More

Great place to stay in Marrakech - amidst the madness of the souks is this winderful, peaceful and very stylish riad. Our bedroom had an incredible stone balcony and the most amazing room that we have ever stayed in - anywhere! The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly too. More

I would absolutely agree with everyones comments, truly a wonderful Riad and such a blissful respite from the mayhem of the souks. As all other reviews mention, the staff, the decor, the breakfasts all attribute to this Riad. I have only one slight negative comment, the owners of the Riad do not make an appearance, and whilst the staff are... More

Talaa 12 is a wonderful place to stay if you are planning to spend a few days in Marrakesh. rooms were just superb, the riad has a most fabulous terrace where we often had breakfast, and there are a number of super lounge areas if you want to get away. The location is terrific as well, right near the Museum... More

We've just got back from Talaa 12 and wish we were still there. It is so perfect and couldn't recommend it enough to anyone. Right next to the souks which were great fun.... however when you're in the Riad you could be 100 miles away with the gorgeous orange trees and tweeting birds. Everyone who worked there was so lovely,... More

In the midst of the chaos of the old town, this hotel was perfectly placed as a base from which to explore the rest of Marrakech. The decor was serene and beautiful and the hotel was a welcome oasis of calm and relaxation. The staff was exceedingly helpful with questions and eager to provide excellent service. Best kept secret: the... More

Our stay at Talaa 12 was recommended by Mr and Mrs Smith. Knowing how many choices of riads you have in Marrakech, we thought we should ask some help with the famous website. We weren’t disappointed at all. Besides the fact we found a bit difficult to find the riad in the middle of the Medina, we were welcomed nicely... More

A gem of a place. The location on the edge of the souk is perfect and provides respite from the craziness, being able to dip in and out of the souks is a real bonus. Breakfast on the roof terrace is an amazing experience, the 360 view is spectacular. We had a Hammam for two which is also a must.... More

staff is super friendly, riad is a beautiful place. only thing missing is a little pool to refresh now and then... everything spot on except location next to the souks might be a bit hectic as you always have to go through this crazy place to actually go somewhere. also, we booked a tour to the atlas mountains through the...
