Riad Nirvana

Riad Nirvana is a very nice place to stay, and the location is excellent. Saeda and Naema are excellent hosts, very friendly. The place is warm and charming. Breakfast was good. The pool on the roof is cute and a great place for an after sunset evening dip. There is a seating area with a TV that has access to YouTube for a dose of comedy. The en suite bathroom was nicely renovated.

The room was very small, and beds were way too hard. I have lower back problems, and the beds caused pain. The riad needs an electrical upgrade. The air conditioner was out of service upon arrival, and technicians were called. They fixed the problem that evening, and the techs told me that the AC is fine, but the problem was electrical. The next day the AC was working fine, but when the people in the adjacent room turned on their AC, both units went out, perhaps due to circuit overload. Additionally, the wall switch that controls the ceiling fan sparks slightly when you turn the settings nob. I noticed this in the middle of the night when I turned it down. It was quite visible in the darkness. I didn't see this in the daytime.

We were served a delicious Moroccan breakfast every morning served by a friendly member of the Riad Nirvana team. Our rooms were cleaned every day. We also opted for an in house dinner one evening which was served upstairs outdoors, it was sublime. Given its central location, we were blown away how peaceful and quiet it was, the pool was a magnificent place to retreat after a day of exploring or for a mid afternoon swim. It truly was an oasis. Above everything we experienced it was the people who worked at Riad Nirvana that made us feel like a King, Queen and 2 princesses. Their attention to detail made us feel like we were at home. Being greeted by Christelle and Vincent was a lovely start. Thank you to each and everyone for how you made us feel. We will be back again one day. I promise.

Leaving and saying goodbye to each and every member that worked there. We ALL shed a tear or two. Very sad to leave. We have never felt so emotional leaving an accomodation before.

The staff at this Riad can’t do enough to help you I’ve never stayed at a place with better hospitality in my life. Nainia, Jamila, Aziz, Kalima, Christelle and Vincent should be so proud of the service they deliver! I have a gluten allergy and never felt excluded at breakfast as they catered to me perfectly. The rooms are beautifully decorated we were even lucky enough to receive a free upgrade to a suit, the aircon is perfect, the roof top pool is a treat on a hot day and the beds are really comfortable. The location is quiet and we felt safe walking around to the souks and restaurants nearby. If I ever return to Marrakesh I will be booking here in a heartbeat :)

That I had to leave!

The delicious breakfast and the central location were spot on.

The size of the room and the smell in the bathroom were off-putting.
