Riad Olema
Our experience at Riad Olema was amazing. The host Samir was welcoming and very knowledgeable, he gave us excellent information on hiring cars as we were in Morocco for a road trip. The riad is clean and the breakfast was delicious. The pool was right outside our bedroom, with this we really did have a true Moroccan riad stay. This Riad also has a lovely roof terrace with a Jacuzzi.

The property was clean, friendly and helpful staff. Open courtyard, well maintained. Quick access from the drop off. Only suggestion maybe having the name posted in main road so can be found easily for the first timers.

The staff at Riad Olema were kind and attentive throughout our stay, and their day-to-day hospitality was excellent. However, we were charged for a pillow stain and almost charged for a missing shampoo bottle that was clearly in the bathroom (they removed the charge after we pointed it out). They also called us a cab but didn’t tell the driver we were headed to the train station — he was on the way to the airport until I caught it on the map. Apparently, this miscommunication has happened before. Great service overall, but some small issues to watch for during checkout.

Easily accessible riad in the medina
Beautiful riad in the medina. Easily accessible from Bab Doukkala. Friendly hosts and excellent breakfast. Pleasant sitting areas with pool and open fires. Interesting roof terrace. Only criticism is that the bedroom we had was a bit of a squeeze. Fine for 1 night but would have been a bit limiting if staying longer.

Had a fantastic stay at the Riad Olema. We stayed for 5 nights. The location is great, walkable to all the key sights in Marrakesh. Breakfast was delicious and the other items on the menu we tried were also fantastic.
The staff were super friendly and recommended some amazing restaurants.
Thanks for a great stay

Beautiful Riad close to the Bazaar. Excellent customer service and Hakeem took great care and made our stay feel like home. We give 6 stars to this property and will come back again. Last but not the least delicious and healthy breakfast each morning with a variety of Moroccon pastries and yummy fruits.

I’ve visited several riad in Marrakesh and this was my favourite. It’s clean, tastefully curated, the bedrooms are very comfortable and the rooftop is massive. Furthermore, Riad Olema has the best heating I’ve experienced in Marrakesh and the entire riad smells fragrant. I’ve been in Marrakesh for a month and will be here for another 2 months but I plan to have retreats here during the week just for some extra quiet and comfort.
