The stay was amazing. We arrived a little early and were lucky to have the room ready for us. The welcome tea was very refreshing. The room itself was beautiful decorated, very clean, spacious and very comfortable. We had dinner in the evening which ended up being a private dinner on the rooftop. The waiter was excellent and the food was outstanding. When we checked out, our bags were put in a cart and taken to the main street so we could get a taxi. If we're ever back in Marrakesh, we will definitely be looking to stay here again.

Outstanding experience at an exceptional house
Outstanding service at a Riad, the staff was very attentive to our needs and eager to serve. Food was also very appetizing and had more flavor than any of the restaurants we visited. The Riad staff was also very open and eager for feedback for improvement t, suggesting a growth mindset.

Stop looking for another Riad and just book Riad Kniza! The Riad is spectacular! From the moment we got there they treated us like family! They met every question and request with a smile and did everything they could do to make our stay as great as possible. The rooms were clean, spacious, and beautiful. They would bring us our delicious complimentary breakfast to the room every morning at the time of our choosing. Mohamed, the owner, is so sweet and even took us on a FANTASTIC tour of the city. Definitely one of the best hotel stays we have experienced!

Riad Kniza is absolutely stunning. Located in the Medina and walking distance from all the major sites and souks. When we arrived we were blown away but how amazing the property is. It offers various different relaxing areas, lounges, a roof terrace, a pool etc. The staff were really attentive. The manager gave us a tour on arrival and then we settled in on the huge roof terrace which has shaded areas, loungers and toilets. There was a phone on the roof to call for tea, wine and snacks. Whatever you wanted. The hotel accommodated everything. You can also order your breakfast to any part of the Riad. We had it in our room, by the pool and on the roof terrace. Different locations each day. The room we stayed in was lovely. The size and decor was perfect. We arrived to rose petal displays and fresh fruit each day. Everything was perfect. We’ve stayed in amazing luxury hotels all over the world and have to say Riad Kniza is right up there with some of the best. Such an amazing place!

We had an amazing time. The Riad is absolutely gorgeous and the staff is nice and attentive. I was there with my boyfriend and they spoiled us with so much attention. They even let us leave the luggage 1 day after checkout for us to around the souk. Amazing breakfast, experience 10/10

This was a serendipitous find! Such a lovely Riad and excellent on all fronts. Every single member of the staff was absolutely delightful and could not have been more welcoming or helpful. There's a real family feel to this lovely place and the rooms, food, spa and other facilities are 5 star. Would definitely return.

This is not just a Riad in Marrakech, Riad Kniza is an experience not to be missed, the personal service, attention to detail, decor and furnishings, it’s service that’s so often out of reach for so many travellers, it’s hard to believe when your inside the Risd that your in the heart of a vibrant and lively Medina, we also loved the rooftop restaurant opposite which is also an art gallery, highly recommended
