Ambre Epices Medina Riad

Absolutely fabulous stay! Beautiful Riad felt we had a full traditional Moroccan experience. Traditional delicious food on the roof top terrace 360 views ….Staff so friendly they couldn’t do enough to help you! Loved the Hamman and massage too! Old town location which we loved not far to explore the cool Souks! Fabulous first trip to Marrakech ❤️

I can honestly say this was one or the best trips that I've been on and what made it was the outstanding service from the full team at the Riad. I visited with my husband and 3 friends for a 4 night break in January to get some winter sun. The riad arranged transfers from the airport and we were met on the street by a member of the team who led us to the hotel and transported out bags. We were greeted warmly by name on arrival in Riad and given tea and treats while we waited for our rooms. Siahn then took time to ask what we wanted to do while on our trip and planned every small detail for us including some fabulous restaurant recommendations. Nothing was ever too much! The service was personal and better than most five star hotels that we have stayed in. Siahn is a credit to the Riad, she truly is outstanding. The suite that we booked was excellent, the interior was done to a high standard and the bathroom was next level luxury. We organised a cooking lesson in the Riad with the chef Fatima. We met at 11am, went to the markets with Siahn and Fatima to buy the ingredients and then cooked lunch together and enjoyed it on the rooftop with some wine we purchased while out and about (the Riad is dry but they were happy to provide an ice bucket and glasses) As a *** couple we were slightly nervous about staying in Morocco but it was as never an issue and we felt safe and welcome at all times. The Riad is in a great location with some many restaurants, bars and the souks just a short walk away. It’s the ideal location! As a group we have now decided to make it an annual trip, the hotel was extremely affordable and had the most perfect set up. Thank you so much for an amazing holiday! We can’t wait to come back and stay with you guys again

Highly recommended lovely Riad which is easily accessible to all the main attractions in Marrakesh including the souks. The manager and staff were so friendly and made you feel at home. Nothing was too trouble, they made the time to get to know you are were really genuine friendly people. We would recommend the hammam at the Riad. My husband loved it that much he booked a second one, being nicknamed Mr Hammam.

This hotel is right in the heart of everything. It’s small but has everything you need. The hotel staff are very accommodating and helpful. I would definitely recommended this hotel. Make sure to get them to meet you as it’s hard to find, especially at night.

Since we visited Morocco for the first time, we did seek an accommodation that was authentic and made us feel the culture. This Riad lived up to all expectations and so so much more! The hotel was so clean, the food was good, the interior was beautiful, the vibe was so nice and calming, and the service and people there were absolutely amazing!! They made our trip complete! Helped us do the most fun activities, and we loved getting to know everyone. It felt so personal, and we were truly upset when we left because we felt the place so “homey”. Definitely one of the greatest place I’ve ever stayed, and we want for sure to visit again sometime

Ambre Epices is an outstanding Riad and I would 100% stay again. Ahead of our arrival I received a comprehensive message with lots of details. They asked if I wanted an airport pick up for €25 which I was happy to do as we arrived late at night and Morocco has a closed currency so I was already wondering how I would locate an ATM to pay for a taxi. The pick up was very easy and the cost added onto our room. They offered to cook us dinner on arrival which was 3 courses for €25pp which we were really happy with as we arrived late, and we pre ordered. The food was ready as soon as we arrived and was amazing. The portions were HUGE and so tasty, didn't find a better chicken pastilla for the rest of the holiday! We also pre booked some massages which were great - they sent the costs ahead of time so you can factor it into your trip. The included breakfast was amazing! It was different pastries/cake every day along with bread, juice, tea and eggs. There was loads of it and kept us going until 4pm!! The room was gorgeous, cleaned every day, bed made, new towels etc. Really wonderful bedrooms and quiet area. The location is perfect. It is just next to the Souks so easy access to the madness but far enough away for some peace and quiet at night. The riad is down some alleys which are full of riads and are well lit and felt safe. The location is near a lot of restaurants, Souks, food shops and a taxi rank, so ideal! Finally the staff - oh wow. Every staff member couldn't do enough for you. They are all so friendly and hard working. Komal especially made us feel so welcome, went through all the local sights on a map for us, made recommendations and answered all our questions. I couldn't fault out stay at all. The riad had a beautiful roof top and smaller inside spaces with sofas and a fire for colder months. It was modern but also has the classic Moroccan charms. I'll be going back!!
