We had never stayed in a Riad before so it was a new experience. But it was great. Would definitely stay here again. This place is great value and Gilles and the staff are really helpful. Lots of nice touches like slippers and bathrobes. Yes you can find a Riah which is more luxurious, at a cost, but for us it was great

This was one of the best stays I had! The breakfast was AMAZING and our stay in Morocco was made so much better by our host and the staff here at Abaca Badra. The pickup from the airport was great, and when we arrived we were greeted with tea and an explanation of the areas of Morocco and helpful things to know. The room was equipped with argan oil, lotion, body wash, a blow dryer, robes, everything you could really need. We were able to get henna done at the riad as well which was very convenient! BOOK THIS RIAD!

Pre Christmas in Marrakech

Had the riad pretty much all to ourselves for the duration of our stay. Ideally locally in a quiet area but only a few minutes walk to the souks and 10 minutes walk to the main square.

Good Riad

2nd stay at the Riah, We stayed for 4 days when we arrived in Marrakesh and one night before our flight. Gilles stored some luggage for us without charge while we toured around Morocco. Rooms as described. Nice extras like slippers, robes hairdryer and lots of toiletries. Never stayed in a Riad and I am pretty certain you can find flashier ones and a much greater cost but if I am in Morocco again I would definitely stay here as it is good value and the food, staff everything in fact is fine

Perfect stay

We had an amazing stay at this Riad, Gilles and his team was always making sure we had everything we needed, and, traveling with a toddler means you sometime have different needs. The Riad Is so peaceful, the rooms are very spacious and the breakfast was delicious! We ate also dinner there one evening and it was very good as well. We will definitely come back to Marrakech and stay here again.

We stayed here for two nights as a family of 3. This hidden gem is conveniently located and very walkable. The host Gilles spent time to give us detailed information about how to navigate to the main sights, including details on prices for the main attractions! Although we did hire a private tour guide, we were able to use the information to do a bit more sightseeing on our own. The room itself is spacious and clean. The two large closets were great for storing all our luggages. The Riad also has a spacious game area with lots of books and board games. There is no TV (my son was disappointed but which is not a bad thing from my point of view) or refrigerator, but they do provide free water and tea. We also enjoyed the delicious breakfast, which was mostly homemade (including yogurt). My son really liked their hot chocolate. We would love to come back again and definitely would love to try out the home cooked dinner!

Loved this Riad. Giles was a wonderful host. The breakfast was generous and delicious. Giles gave us some good tips to navigate tourist traps and gave us a great recommendation to buy pottery. We loved this Riad also for the closeness to the key attractions Bacha coffee and Madarsa Ben Youssef. Highly recommend staying here

Gilles is so attentive to his guests. He helped us with our transfer to the airport and even accompanied us safely to retrieve our car to the airport. There is nothing this man wouldn’t do to make your stay great! Breakfast was always ready and waiting hot and delicious. He also offers dinner options which is great for those not wanting to go out. The Riad is very clean and beautiful. It’s located near many shops and restaurants. Great experience you can’t go wrong in choosing this awesome place.
