Riad Goloboy

The service is good. They ensure you have breakfast and coffee available. The riad needs work and updating. We didn’t realize until the last day that we were in the old city and there was a new city. If we had known, we would’ve stayed here for just one night for the experience and then went to the new city. The old city is very overwhelming and everyone is trying to hustle you and panhandling is a bit too much. My only issues were….The Goloboy is off an alley street which doesn’t seem safe and cats everywhere. We asked the riad staff about where to get wine and he told my young adult son, we have wine. My son went with him to choose the wine, and asked do you take credit card? The man put a hand on his chest, “Its fine, it’s on me.” The next day when I went to check out, he charged me $20 euros for travelers tax (although we prepaid on ***********) and asked for 150 dhs for the wine. I was shocked and annoyed because we could’ve easily went out for much better wine and he gave the impression it was “on him.” I told him I had to go to the ATM and he stated to give it to his colleague in the morning when we checked out. The next morning, his colleague followed us as we were going to catch our taxi so we could stop at the ATM and give him the money. Of course the ATM doesn’t give change so I ended up giving him 200 dhs for “CRAPPY” wine! The whole time my son and I was in the old city we felt as if we were constantly being hustled and unfortunately the same applied here. Do yourself a favor, reduce the anxiety of being followed and hustled while on vacation…stay in the new city!

This riad is BEAUTIFUl!! Within good walking distance to main area of city (apx. 10 minutes). The staff was fabulous- incredibly helpful. Amazing breakfast, dinners, and tea. Our room was lovely, spacious, and the bed was very comfy. We would recommend this riad to everyone- it was perfect!

Found this riad online at a great price and the pictures looked good so we booked for two guests. It’s a great central location in the Medina. It’s not accessible directly by car, so it’s about a 3-4 min walk from the gate to the riad. The staff is absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and everyone was so sweet. They brought us Moroccan mint tea and cookies on arrival and we had it again multiple times throughout the stay. We talked with the staff for hours and they were always cheerful and welcoming. I celebrated my birthday there and they got me a whole cake and sang to me. The guys helped with our luggage going and coming since there’s a short walk to car path. The riad itself is so cute and decorated by an artist. There’s an indoor pool and a rooftop where they serve breakfast every morning. There’s also a restaurant that can be reserved. We had dinner there one night and it was great. It’s very easy to get a taxi right from the front gate. It’s also fairly close to the airport. There are other rooms, but we rarely saw other guests and it is great for privacy and quiet. I highly recommend booking here. Thank you Riad Goloboy, Juwad, Hamid and all the staff for a great stay and for being so kind.

Just spent 4 nights in Riad Goloboy with my teenage daughter and would not hesitate to recommend it. It is showing its age a little, however, it is kept very clean. There are more luxurous riads with more facilities (priced accordingly) but if you are looking for an authentic Marrakesh experience within the ancient city walls (with all of the sights, odours and sounds to match from sunrise onwards) you will not find a warmer welcome or more helpful staff, anywhere in Marrakesh. Highly recommended.

Morocco reopened borders on 7 so we jump on it , arrival in Marrakech without any reservations , we called many places but the woman on the phone was so gentle so we decided to book here Super localization inside the quiète médina part near the palace , nice terrace with Mamounia garden view , super team Room are spacious , clean with charm and nice decoration ! We recommend
