I spent 7 nights in Riad Qodwa and enjoyed my stay completeley. Very beautiful garden area with a nice swimmingpool - a quiet and peaceful location with a beautiful view on the atlas mountains. The whole staff is very friendly, helpful and competent. The Riad is clean and tidy. The outdoor area offers plenty of room to sit comfortable and quiet. Perfect for me to combine work with holiday. There is also a free shuttle service provided by the Riad to Marrakech. Good price performance ratio.I will certainly come back!

We decided to book a week here in May for a chance to relax and that's exactly what we did. This riad is so very typically Moroccan a very tranquil place to relax. We had a fantastic week here the staff were very helpful at all times and couldn't do enough for us. The food is out of this world, yes you have to order in advance as it is all freshly prepared for you and very tasty. We enjoyed our stay so much we are looking to book again next year

The views were amazing, they opened a new villa across the street, with larger rooms and another pool. Food is great. A/C in every room, plus a fireplace...

The views were amazing, they opened a new villa across the street, with larger rooms and another pool. Food is great. A/C in every room, plus a fireplace in the dining room. The staff spoke many languages so there wouldn't be a problem communicating.

I booked this hotel with a little anxiety due to reviews. But wanted somewhere that was more of a home than a hotel. A safe environment for my children. Away from the city. The bad reviews made me anxious but also reduced my expectations. When we arrived we were exhausted (thanks to Ryanair’s lovely timetable) we were met by Khalid who explained the city and gave us mint tea. We were taken to the villa side of the Riad we loved it. But for me as a parent who travels alone with 3 kids and knows that at times we aren’t all going to be at the pool or in the room it wasn’t working, I wasn’t comfortable with letting my kids return to the villa while I was by the pool or pop back to rest away from the sun etc, The opportunity came up to move to the main building which was perfect. The room was small but it’s a place to sleep no more! The shower was fine and the bed linen was changed daily and clean towels the cleaning ladies are lovely and kind and helpful. The food service is slow my advice is order an hour before you think you will eat and you will be fine. The food is lovely and fresh. We stayed 10 days and I ate salads for most of the time! Mainly as they were delicious and I can never be bothered to make that for just myself! The pool is huge and heats up as the sun warms it through the day. Sunbeds are plenty although you may miss out if you are going out for the day! The shuttle trips are great. Again just the right times so you aren’t rushing but out early enough and back in time to cool off and have dinner. WiFi major issue for my family! And myself! Works perfectly in the foyer I had to occasionally take calls or do emails I found I could only make/do these ok the foyer. The staff make this place they are fantastic with children and made us all feel like family. We will return. It was a pleasure thank you all so much! And if you are lucky you will like us, meet lovely people we were so lucky with other guests it felt like a little community each day with sharing our trips and tips and fun! Make sure you go onto the roof to watch the sunsets!

My wife and I stayed at Riad Qodwa for a week (22-29 December). Situated about 20 minutes' drive from Jemaa El Fna Place, this oasis of peace and calm has a huge courtyard with a large, well-maintained swimming pool in the middle. Orange, citrus, pomegranate, olive and rosemary trees adorn the place. Beautiful peacocks roam freely during the day. Moush, the resident kitty is so cute!We felt really pampered by the staff of Riad Qodwa. Khalid, the manager, will pull all the stops to cater to the needs of the residents. He even got us some scrumptious home-made harissa which we took back to London. Abdussamad, the waiter, always had a smile on his face. Hamide, another waiter, was so helpful. Shenaz and I LOVE the freshly-squeezed orange juice. DIVINE! The traditional Moroccan dishes on the menu were scrumptious, too.Riad Qodwa always provides a free shuttle service to and from Marrakech city centre twice a day by Yusuf, the driver. All trips can be arranged with Khalid. The trip to Ourika Valley has to be our most memorable trip. Seeing is believing! Thank you, Riad Qodwa! We miss you guys and will certainly return.

The hotel itself is very nice and clean. It is placed in a peaceful location with the mountains’ view. At night you can see the Milky Way. You can pick the fruits straight from the trees such as lemons and oranges which are really delicious. Peacocks are everywhere making this place even more like paradise. The water in the swimming pool is very clean. The food is typical Marrokan and every day it is something different. The service is professional especially Mr Khalid. The hotel has a Very friendly atmosphere. The staff is always willing to help and advice you about anything essential that you need to know such as the lower price for offered goods in Marrakesh. Transport to the city, airport etc is for free. This hotel also organises trips to beautiful places such as Atlas Mountains. So you don’t have to worry about anything. I highly recommend it

I was here in October 2016 but I did not have Tripadvisor then. I was with my friend and we had a lovely stay!Such nice staff, and everyone was so nice to us and made suggestions with what we can do in the city center that day, the hotel manager always helped us with prices and gave us a map and explained a lot about the city. We were sitting with him some evenings and drank tea. And we did not feel uncomfortable at all any Second in the hotel, even as two young women in a hotel with mainly male staff. The first night we did sleep at the other house (there are 3 houses) which was not so nice, but they were fully booked and in the next morning we could even chose our room. It was beautiful and huge! It is not a classic hotel, but a huge house that was converted into a hotel. But I liked the concept, since it was a small hotel with >20 rooms and the staff knew all their guests. Breakfast was very good, every day we got a different Moroccan breakfast specialty. Free shuttle to the city center 4x a day, we always spend the morning and afternoon at the pool and went to the city centre for late afternoon and evening. The shuttle driver also helped us to get a taxi in the city center and told the taxi driver to make us a good price would stay there again!

Me and my partner stayed here for 4 nights. Fab place, very welcoming, staff make you feel at home. Riad is about 25 mins from the centre of Marrakech and there is only a small local shop/cafe within walking distance. Great to be out of the hustle and bustle of the city though. Staff spoke many different languages, free shuttle bus to Marrakech and back, free airport runs. Only downfall was no alcohol available although they were happy to let us bring duty free drinks in which we picked up at the airport. Very basic hotel although you see more Morrocan culture here and the staff couldn't do enough to help us. Very cheap trips arranged here too, often private.
