Everything about this place was perfect. It was a calm oasis in the very middle of the chaotic Marrakech city centre. The staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast on the rooftop is to this day our favorite hotel breakfast we’ve ever had. The hotel is small and consists of only a few rooms.The only negative - no cards accepted, only cash, which is standard in Morocco, but hotels should accept cards or online payment.I will definitely book again when I come back to Marrakech, and you should too!

I was for the first time in Marrakesh and in Marocco. I booked the Single room by booking.com in Riad Leila. It wasn't very expensive.When I came to the room, I was unpleasantly surprised. The room was very, very small and simple, the bathroom even smaller. The room had no desk, no placard, no mirror, no television, no safe, no fridge or mini bar and no tea/coffee facilities, but had air condition. The bathroom was without hair dryer and with some toileteries.The hotel has no lift.But the most important for me - it was very clean.I spent the night somehow on the very narrow bed.The breakfast next morning was served on the terrace and was real surprise. It was continental with no meat, but with good coffee or tea. It wasn't buffet, but served on the table. It was very tasty and abundant. The orange juice was made of the fresh squeezed fruit.And - above all - the hotel manager and the reception staff - Miss Amal and Miss Meriam - are great, very kind and they listened attentivly my complaint about the Single room.The surprise came on the afternoon. I was upgraded - with no supplement - to the elegant two bed room, where I stayed for another three nights. It was very good experience.I proimised to come back to Marrakesh, to Riad Leila, and to bring my Friends with me.I was served every afternoon - free of charge - coffee or tea and on my last evening all hotel guests were invited on the terrace to the special Ramadan dinner. Very original, very kind and very tasty.

We stayed in 3 different riads this time in Marrakech and Riad Leila was the very best. Friendly welcome, stunning courtyard, clean, warm and attractive room with plenty of hot water. Breakfast on pretty roof terrace was typical Moroccan style breakfast served with smiles. Perfectly quiet at night and a haven of calm during the day. Perfectly located just minutes walk to D'jemaa el Fna. To give you a flavour before you go, please read my novel The Kings in the Kasbah which is a tourist tale set in the old quarter of Marrakech.Have visited the city many times and Riad Leila truly is one of the best places to stay. It will be my riad of choice next time I visit and cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is in a very good location still in the Medina but just on the edge, you can walk 50 m to a taxi stand to catch a taxi anywhere else in the larger city. It's just off of very busy commercial tiny street (souk), and the alley that it's on is a nice bit of quiet before you get to the door. The place is very cute and it seems like there's new paint and new bathroom fixtures, as well as a nice modern TV and air conditioner in our room. The rooms are quite small and immediately off the courtyard. but they make up for any size problem by being stylish and cute. Our bathroom is actually very very pretty and artful, with very nice tile and the shower is well made with good fixtures and good water pressure. The operator seem friendly, but I think they really tried to rip me off with a setting up a taxi for tomorrow morning. They also seem to unplug the Wi-Fi when anyone isn't around, so you have to ask for the Wi-Fi to be turned on every time you want to use it. the AC in the room worked, though it's cycle did seem to make a strange grinding noise every 4 minutes or so. The Terrace is nice, I might say average but clean, but there isn't any View at all. For the fact that there seem to be dozens of hotels around, this seems a little high-priced, but maybe I've been traveling in the countryside for too long. He did get up early to make us a small breakfast as we had to leave early to get to the airport, so I appreciate that. My biggest negative was that I did ask the propitiator if they could help me get a taxi set up for the morning, as we were going to be going to the airport early, and he quoted me 30 EURO, when it should have been 3. I said no thank you, and then asked another hotel manager on the same road, and said maybe 10 euro. I walked to the taxi stand myself and got one for 15. even that was ridiculous, but the taxi driver was vigilantly waiting for us at the appointed time, which was nice. Again, should have been 3. That sort of petty rip off really leaves a sour taste with me. otherwise would say this was 5 star.
