It is a very well-located Riat. It is beautiful inside, and the staff is super kind! The room we had was very well distributed, great size! It was just too close to the restaurant, so if you don't have plans to wake up early, I suggest to ask for a room on the other side. My only suggestion to the place is to change the bed top covers because, although they are very cute, they gather a lot of dust.

Poder darte un baño en la piscina despues de visitar Marrakech no tiene precio. Estå a 1 minuto (real) del Palacio de Badi, a 5 minutos escasos de Las Tumbas Saadies y a 2 minutos del Palacio de Bahía. El taxi te deja o recoge en la puerta, así como las excursiones que contrates. La plaza estå a 10 minutos pero se puede ir por 3 calles diferentes llenas de tiendas así que el paseo tiene su encanto siempre

Great experience. Staff super friendly. One thing I would note is that the google maps is wrong about the location—Riad Aladdin is on Rue de Berrima next to a restaurant. Coming from rue tougma it is before you would turn right onto derb touareg. It took me 30 minutes of walking down dimly lit alleyways on Derb touareg until I figured out that it wasn’t there. Overall, I had a pleasant sleep and they have a sauna, a roof deck, and other amenities (I did not use these, but they do have them), but do keep in mind that the google maps is wrong about the location.

This place was extremely unclean and unkept. If I had known earlier I would not have booked it as I was traveling with a newborn baby and it was disgusting. The staff were unhelpful and were so annoyed even at the smallest request. I am so disappointed that Expedia would even advertise this horrible riad.

A really lovely typical Riad. Extremely friendly helpful staff. Comfortable bedroom with outdoor roof terrace, great for some late afternoon sunbathing. Ideally located , just inside the MĂ©dina, for exploring all that is the old city of Marrakesh. Be aware that the pool is really a water feature and not really one that is used for swimming. Massage very good!!

The manager was VERBALLY ABUSIVE AND THREATENED VIOLENCE towards myself and my friend over a $12 taxi charge miscommunucation. This was after the staff had already been extrmely lukewarm throughout our stay (requests were often met with eyerolls). At times the staff was attentive, but none of it matters when the owner is someone who literally threatens violence over women (which is unacceptable under any circumstances). My friends and I will be seeking a refund and would HIGHLY advise against staying here until they address their issue with their staff.

We enjoyed our stay!

We enjoyed our stay at the Riad Aladdin very much. I loved waking in the morning to the sounds of donkeys and horses heading to market. The location was perfect- walking distance to so much that we wanted to see. Even though the Aladdin is centrally located, outside noises were not a problem. It is quiet and peaceful within the riad. We ended our stay with massages at the riad, which were very relaxing. The argan oil used was so nourishing to the skin! We would definitely stay at the Riad Aladdin again. Just one thing- if you plan on reading when in the room, you might want to bring a head lamp. Loved the decorations and ambiance of the room, but the dim lighting made it difficult for my aging eyes to read.

Really nice for the price

The staff was very welcoming and helpful to all our questions. Definitely book dinner with them at least once. One of best meals we had during our time in Morocco was at Riad Aladdin. Their chicken tagine with olives was so amazing. At the end of our stay we felt slightly rushed out even though we checked out at 11AM. I figured that would be a normal time to check out but perhaps they needed to quickly make the room for a new guest?

Buona posizione

Riad in buona posizione, a 10 minuti dalla piazza jamaa el fna, vicinissimo al palazzo El badii, palazzo Bahia. Comodo il transfer che offre il Riad a 10€ a persona. Colazione completa in stile marocchino, buona. Le camere sono carine, nel complesso la pulizia Ăš buona, l unica cosa era un po' freddo, essendo dicembre ci puĂČ stare.

Viel versprochen - wenig gehalten

Auf den ersten Blick sieht das Riad ganz nett aus, die Zimmer sind gemĂŒtlich und ganz nett eingerichtet. Beim nĂ€herer Betrachtung erkennt man allerdings gewisse MĂ€ngel (Farbe blĂ€ttert ab, Spinnweben). Der Service war unter aller Sau. Bedient wurde man nur wenn man das Personal angesprochen hat, GetrĂ€nke mussten z.T. selber aus dem KĂŒhlschrank geholt werden. Das Personal sitzt im GĂ€stebereich mit FĂŒĂŸe hoch und beschĂ€ftigt sich mit dem Handy. Englisch gesprochen wird sehr schlecht - der einzige kompetente Mitarbeiter Christophe sitzt am Empfang, allerdings haben wir ihn nur 1 mal direkt an der Anreise angetroffen wo wir zum GlĂŒck alles geklĂ€rt haben, er ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit und spricht auch sehr verstĂ€ndlich englisch. Das FrĂŒhstĂŒck dauert sehr lange, ist geschmacklich ok. Beim Check-Out gab es eine handgeschriebene Rechnung auf einen Schmierzettel. Angegeben wird ein Safe der auf den Zimmern nicht vorhanden ist, ein Innen- und Außenpool wobei es immer der selbe ist je nach Saison scheinbar nur anders nutzbar, da er sich aber in mitten der "Lobby" befindet, möchte man dort nicht schwimmen gehen. Bei der angegeben Hotelausstattung (Concierge-service, 24-H-Rezeption, W-LAN und kostenfreies Wasser im Zimmer und von einer Bar/Lounge) war nichts zu sehen. Sehr enttĂ€uschend.

depends on room

We stayed one of nice room on third floor but another room my friend stay which is in second floor and cheaper was actually nicer. (Her room could connect to wifi, a bit bigger, seems cleaner) hotel was not bad but maybe simply older than the picture you see in hotels.com page. Location and breakfast was nice. But I think we could find another hotel with same quality but cheaper price.

Riad Aladdin-full of Moroccan charm and character

Enjoyed a weeks stay at the Riad Aladdin. Lovely ambience and only a short walk from the main square. Lovely breakfast served with a variety of local breads and cakes on offer. Rooms could do with a little updating, eg, towels were old and shower not brilliant. However, rooms cleaned daily and staff very helpful if we needed anything else.

I don't recommend this hotel

We travelled as a family of 6 people. We booked quite a few months in advance but On arrival we had to ask to change two of the three double rooms. In one of them the mattress was so soft that the couple rolled into the middle on top of one another. In the room they were changed to the heating didn't work (it was 22 December) and there was only one blanket on the bed. The second double room was really dirty and the bathroom was filthy. The only lighting was a dark red lamp which really didn't disguise the state of the room. When we complained, the owner said, " This is a Riad and the building is old". When we said we'd been travelling in Morocco for 10 days already and staying in riads, she changed her tune and showed us to a newly painted room.
