I've been lucky enough to visit the beautiful Riad assakina at least once a year since 2012 until the restrictions of the pandemic. And now at last, i've been able to return after 2 long years!!!The warm and friendly welcome from Michele, Grant and their team makes it feel like coming home each time.The riad is a peaceful haven in which to relax after the exciting hustle and bustle of the souks!! It's wonderful to sit back and enjoy the gorgeous decor of the riad and the calming atmosphere as well as the warm and friendly approach of the staff.Michele always has fantastic ideas for new places to visit and they never disappoint. I can't wait to return!!

I like that there were some great details added to the experience. The hosts Grant and Michelle had cake and coffee in the afternoon and there were nice touches to rooms like fresh flowers and chocolates, but I am sorry to say that I didn't like the hospitality. Grant was fine, but Michelle was arrogant as if she was doing you a favor serving you (examples: she told me how much I should order for dinner, took away my plate while I was still eating it, insisted on this and that when I clearly didn't ask for advice).I liked the location - easy to find if you just said Bahia Square. The rooms were fine too - clean and nicely decorated. I would not completely recommend this place based on Michelle's lack of hospitality which was noticeably rude. However, it was definitely a nice riad to stay in.

A beautiful Riad in the heart of the city (but without the noise!) and a sun-trapped sun terrace with views over Marrakech. Our room was beautiful with a large bathroom and much-needed air con. Very comfortable. The owners - Grant and Michele - were incredible hosts from the moment we arrived and throughout our stay providing us with an array of places to visit and recommendations of where to eat. Afternoon (mint) tea and cake everyday was a highlight, especially after walking and exploring the Medina. Highly recommend this Riad to anyone looking to see the city in comfort & style.

My partner and I stayed here in March and had a brilliant time. The hosts were excellent, friendly and so helpful, as were all the staff. The breakfast is amazing. The riad itself is just stunning - a perfect little oasis in the heart of Marrakech.

Riad Assakina is one of the best places I have ever stayed. It was everything I was hoping for from a riad and so much more. I honestly cant fault anything. The riad is exquisitely renovated and decorated, the rooms are spotlessly clean, the staff are amazing, the breakfast was fantastic. The standout however was the host, Michele. I have never been made to feel so welcome and been helped so much on a trip. Nothing was too much trouble, and her local knowledge and recommendations on trips and restaurants was so very helpful. Marrakesh isn't always the easiest place to do the tourist thing; the riad was like a home from home. Having travelled globally and visited Marrakesh a number of times, if you want a riad stay in Marrakesh, you honestly won't find a better one.

We were nervous about booking a Riad within the walls of the 1000 year old city, but this place was an oasis of calm and 5-star comfort but with the traditional Moroccan design. With only 6 rooms, it was like staying as guests in a home. Grant and Michelle are expat Brits who have restored the Riad over the past 12 years with wonderful Moroccan design crafted by artisans that they have hired and art from their world travels. The staff are respectful Moroccans who provide the best of personal service to each guest. The food served was the best we experienced during our trip. The Berber Eggs were our favorite breakfast. Dinners were also offered as an option and the dining was customized for each guest. Grant and Michelle arranged day trips to the best sites with drivers and guides. If you picture visiting your best friend’s home as a houseguest who is given the most careful and courteous service, this is the place for you.

The Riad was situated perfectly next to the Medina where you could grab a taxi or other means of transportation to other parts of the city. Other Riads especially in the Medina are inaccessible by car and you easily get lost in the maze like setting. MIchele and staff went above and beyond expectation in service an quality. The personnel was very friendly, knowledgeable and most helpful in recommending, organizing activities such as tours, dinner and transports. The Riad and rooms were decorated spectacularly in Moroccan art and style with all the modern amenities. All of the food we tried there was amazing from breakfast to the tapas menu. They also have tea time in afternoon with a daily cake. Perfect after walking around the Medina all day.

My friend and I stayed at the beautiful Riad Assakina in February of 2020. As soon as we walked in, we knew we had made the right choice, as Michelle and Grant immediately offered us tea and cake - what we would soon learn is a daily tradition! The Riad itself is absolutely stunning, with a ton of outdoor space, and our room was also very beautiful. Michelle and Grant were friendly and knowledgable, offering us everything from restaurant recommendations, to tips on where to buy the best Moroccan bowls. I would 100% stay here again if I were back in Marrakech, and would highly recommend it!
