This is such a wonderful place to stay! The riad is a beautiful building with lots of places to sit and relax - including wonderful roof terrace. The location is walking distance to everywhere in the medina area - but most of all such friendly helpful people! Mint tea and pastries on arrival, help to sort out balloon ride, get taxis, map to get around . I would definitely recommend this as a really special place to stay

OUR THINGS WERE STOLEN - DO NOT RECOMMEND
My boyfriend & I booked this Riad for 5 days & while the Riad itself is really beautiful and the owner was very welcoming we did not have a good experience 1. WE WERE ROBBED BY AN EMPLOYEE OF THE RIAD! before we booked this Riad we had read a review about someone who stayed there & had something stolen from them but my boyfriend did not believe the review & thought it would be fine. (He was very wrong) On our last day at the Riad we had packed our bags & went downstairs for breakfast & in the 15-20 min. that we were eating, someone went into our room, went through our bags & stole hundreds of dollars worth of things. (none of the rooms have locks on them, so anyone can go into your room at any time) Looking back on the situation that morning, as we were walking downstairs for breakfast we saw the night manager almost hiding in the corner & we thought that was weird because in the five days that we had been there we had never seen him up there & we had never seen anyone up in that area. (The owner did reimburse us for the items that were stolen & he was very very nice and helpful about it, but it was something that should not have happened) 2. It is located down a small alley, too small for taxis so you have to walk from the main road. The last few nights we were harassed by a few men, it was scary, they were yelling & threatening us. The Riad does give you a key if you come back late at night which was nice but just be cautious

Great authentic property, full of charm and history. Hosts very friendly and helpful. Location convenient for exploting the winding streets of the city and we felt very safe doing so. Don't miss spending some time on the terrace, it is large and very comfortable to sunbathe or tske some quiet time out. Whilst they don't serve drinks they are happy to store beers etc in their fridge. Breakfast is generous in size and whilst the same every day stocks up the energy levels for the day ahead. Indoor pool looked nice although too cold for us to try and more likely of use in the really hot months. Decent restaurants near by for dinner options. Msin tip would be try to source a detailed map to try and minimise time getting lost!

Nice place but...
It was a nice stay but felt a little off with naked paintings in room. Weird feel to the place. Staff was very polite and nice. However, we did lose a few hundred here from the safe in the rooms that only had a key to the safe without a code.

Considering the location, right in the Medina and around a 3-5 minute walk from the souks, the Riad is a surprising little oasis in the middle. I loved the tranquility and appearance of the two courtyards in the middle and the pool was delightful (if pretty cold), as it definitely worked to cool us down in the heat of the day. The bedrooms were also tastefully decorated and unique, each in their own Moroccan styling- even the ceilings are beautifully painted (a classic Moroccan feature). Lastly, the terraces above are peaceful, sun-soaked, and full of plenty of seating areas, and wiling away some hours in the day, up there, was very relaxing, indeed. The best things about Riad Monika, however, are the wonderfully attentive Zouhair and Khalid. These two really helped to make it feel like home, and no request felt too much of an ask. I must add that, at one point, I lost my phone in the back seat of a driver’s van, and we had no idea how to get it back- but thanks to Zouhair, I had my phone back within 1.5 hours! He is the kindest, most decent, and honestly hard-working person, and it was a pleasure to meet him! I really loved this Riad, and I would definitely return because of how comfortable and homely it feels.

A intimate oasis within the medina
I recently stayed at Riad Monika with my boyfriend. We loved the riad - it is beautifully kept and feels like an intimate oasis within the hustle and bustle of the medina. The staff were so kind and friendly. The manager of the riad helped us navigate the medina and was there if we needed anything throughout our stay. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Charming Moroccan Oasis
The Riad Monika is unequivocally one of the most architecturally charming homes I have ever seen. There is so much appeal that it is impossible to take in everything. We swam in the pool which sits in the middle of the building. We lounged on the rooftop, which has multiple comfortable sitting areas and ate a delicious breakfast there one morning. It was truly romantic. The bathroom was grand and completely unexpected. And to top it all off, the service was immaculate. We were welcomed with delicious mint tea and cookies. While we were swimming one day, our host Zouhair was so kind as to magically appear with freshly squeezed orange juice for us. Our hosts (Zuhair & Khalid) made sure we became familiar with the medina, made restaurant recommendations, and even offered to walk with us one morning. I only wish I had stayed longer and will definitely consider this place when I return to Marrakesh.

Beautiful riad, located a short walk from the souk and main square. The staff were friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. I would definitely recommend. The only point to note is it's difficult to access by car due to the narrow lanes. Closest access point by car is just under 10 mins walk.

We stayed for two fabulours nights at Riad Monika --March 16th/17th and loved everything about it! It was such a beautiful calm oasis in the medina of Marrakech and is in a quieter area ---about ten minutes walking from the main square. The host, Zouhair was absolutely wonderful and was so kind and helpful as were the rest of the staff. From the moment we arrived and had our welcome mint tea to the time we left he was the perfect host. He walked us down to the meeting point for our rental car delivery and waited patiently with us. He also put our mind at ease about finding our way in the medina and driving in Morocco. Our room, the Bahia room, was just beautiful as was the entire riad with the pool in the courtyard and all the beautiful details and architecture. There was a bowl of fresh fruit it our room and Moroccan black soap in the bathroom ---special touches. The breakfast was served on the large and pretty rooftop terrace and it was a great selection of fruit, breads, eggs, yogurt and juices ---loved it. We also liked how there were a variety of areas that you could relax in at the riad. The riad is quite close to the photography museum(Musee de la photographie) which helped us find the location easier. It was the beginning or our Morocco two week trip and what a way to start! You will not be disappointed. We highly recommend Riad Monika and really hope to return one day. I could write more but please stay and see for yourself how wonderful it it.

We were not sure when we get to the door what kind of a place it is. The outside door is deceiving. Raid Monika is a unique hotel where you can find peace, cleanliness and great food. The hotel is a gem in a Marekesh medina. The cleanliniess and the architecture of the place is amazing! It is in a medina but away from the noise. We ate breakfast on top of the terrace. It's set up for every family. We had fresh bread, croissant, freshly squeezed mandarin or orange juice with boiled egg and different jams. Whenever we ask a different kind of egg, they made it for us the way we like it. We ordered dinner one night and the food was amazing! I felt like I was at home away from home but with full concierge onboard. The staff welcomes you with a smile and makes sure you get what you ask for. They are decent, kind, and well mannered people. Zhuhair is an amazing guy! You can ask tea every day and they bring it to you with almond cookies. I would definitely bring my kids next time I come to Marakesh! By the way they will renovate the place in August. I can't wait to see it with added Hamam, Morroco Bath!

Riad Monika is an absolute oasis in the intensity of Marrakech. The Riad is in a great location, within walking distance to so many sights, yet is itself incredibly quiet and comfortable. Zouhair and the rest of the staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful. It was such a relief to come back to this lovely place after a day spent in the chaos of the souks. Everything was perfect and comfortable. I stayed in the Bahia room, complete with hand painted ceilings, a fireplace, large closet and huge bathroom with soaking tub. Even after I was ready to leave the city I was not ready to leave the Riad. As a solo female traveler, the Riad was safe and secure with plenty of spaces to just hang out and relax in. I am SO happy I found Riad Monika and can't wait to stay there again. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing spot to escape to in a busy city.

My partner and I had a great stay at Riad Monika. We loved the traditional Moroccan style and relaxed atmosphere, especially hanging out on the rooftop in the evenings. Zouhair was very friendly and helpful with extras like printing off our boarding passes for us and recommending places to eat. The location is ideal, being in the Medina and a walkable distance to attractions but in a quieter part of town. We felt that we were away from the hustle and bustle and could relax at the riad. Would highly recommend a stay here.
