A gem of a riad
Staff could not do enough to help - they are truly wonderful! A beautiful riad with exceptional interiors. Excellent attention to detail and the whole stay felt very special.
Would recommend booking the airport transfer with the hotel as you are likely to get very lost without it!

I had a wonderful stay at Riad Ilayka. The riad itself is charming, with a lovely courtyard and rooftop terrace, and my room was very well-appointed, attractive, spacious and cozy. The staff were extremely communicative and helpful in every way. The location is great for those wanting close access to the souks and a feel for the old medina. Some might find it confusing and/or slightly unseemly, especially late at night. But I never felt unsafe.

Abdul was excellent. He was very attentive and kind. We had a very early start to our day and he packed us a breakfast to go. He also was kind enough to help us carry our bags on our 10 minute walk to get to our pick up point for a tour that we were going on. The Riad was beautiful. Excellent service overall. Would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Marrakech.
