My friend & I booked a spontaneous 4 day trip to Marrakech in April, and chose the 'authentic' route to stay in a riad in the city centre (as opposed to a resort on the outskirts). We went with Riad Altair as it had 100% positive reviews on TripAdvisor and was a good price - we were not disappointed! Riad... More

Marrakech was quite different to anywhere I have been before, but we had a very relaxing and enjoyable break. A highlight was our trip to the mountains, stopping off on the way to visit a pottery, an authentic Berber House, very welcoming, and the womens cooperative producing Argon oil. Also some very interesting places to see in Marrakech itself, some... More

Riad Altair was lovely. The staff were wonderful, attentive and nothing was too much trouble for them. The breakfasts were amazing - some of the best we've ever had. Our room was extremely comfortable, bright and airy and wonderfully clean. Excellent place, highly recommended.

Booked at the last second for a four night stay, with British Airways. Almost perfect, a mini-bar, if only to keep your own water cool, would have made it perfect. Just a 10-15 min. walk from main square, Staff were all excellent, with out exception. Food good value and tasty. Beware of help with your bags when you are dropped... More

we went to riad altair for a rest after a very busy last year and that is exactly what we got. the rooms were big and airy, the food was excellent, and the staff were excellent. we really couldn't fault this hotel at all. i have already commented on this hotel so please read my earlier comments.

Most importantly the staff were superb, nothing was too much, the breakfasts were just great, very relaxing….. probably too much time was spent consuming the pastries, bread, excellent coffee etc. We decided to dine at the Riad for two nights as we couldn’t believe that they could produce a second night as...

We would definitely stay at riad Altair again. The staff were so friendly, nothing was too much trouble. You were able to freely do whatever you wanted without feeling uncomfortable at the same time knowing you could find someone in moments if you needed anything. We had planned to visit other hotels in the daytime s to use a pool... More

Staff were friendly and helpful. Rhiad was atmospheric, clean and well located. Breakfast tasty. Option to eat there in evenings but remember to take your own alcohol as they do not supply . Would recommend.

On arrival I knew I had picked the right place to stay. When I entered the Riad, all of the noise and hustle from the streets disappeared and all of a sudden I was in an oasis of calm. Staff were more like friends who had invited us over to their house for the weekend. Mint tea and macaroons. Room... More
