Best staff
I have never seen such an amazing staff (and I have stayed in over 1000 nights in all types of hotels including 5 stars in over 20 countries). So helpful, caring and friendly. They'd always go above and beyond. From staff at night to day, everyone was always smiling and finding solutions to any problems that guests may come up with. They'd literally get 100 out to 10 from me if that was possible. I was having problem with our room and asked for a new room and they upgraded without any charge to ensure my comfort. I am a vegan, whilst they didnt have many options in their standard breakfast, they tried to bring in items which they could. Secondly, the location is amazing, just 5 minutes away from main Jama El Fina. The value for money is unparalleled. Such a inexpensive hotel/riad with such amazing services. One thing for improvement would be to renovate riad a little. I understand it is old and represents culture etc of old Morocco but still some furniture upgrade including doors, lighting curtains would help. But even then, if I were ever to come back to Marrakech, I'd stay with them honestly.

Most of the staff here are super helpful and the riad is centrally located, comfortable and peaceful. There was one person who was more interested in blaming me for the taxi not being there, requesting a twin instead of a double and not calling them despite being shown evidence that I clearly did all of those things. Unfortunately he was the first person I met and the first impression I got. However the other staff couldn’t have been more different and really went out of their way to help, showing us how to navigate round and round and what to see, what to do etc. so as long as that particular person isn’t on duty it will be a pleasant stay, the riad is comfortably furnished with beautiful communal spaces and close to lots of cafes and restaurants

Superb staff
Staff at this riad were terrific, especially Aziza (sp?) and Jalal. They made us feel welcome and answered our many questions. They also provided good advice about what to do, how much we should pay for taxi rides, where to eat, etc. we especially appreciated Jalal telling us about his amazigh culture.

Great location and beautiful property. The only reason we would not stay again is it was a bit noisy. You could hear everything in the main atrium early in the morning and late at night. More so than other riads we have stayed.

Riad Saba was a very friendly and welcoming environment. I was greeted with tea and cookies. I stayed on the lower level. My room was clean. The ladies clean the room every day. The AC was functional. I enjoyed the breakfast provided. A few things to note are due to this being a traditional riad, you do not have a television or mini fridge in your room. There is a common area for guests. I would stay here again as I felt comfortable during my stay.

Liked; I liked the location, 7-10 minutes walk to the big market, they need nicer people at the reception Did not like: breakfast was mediocre at best, we keep asking for extra butter and they keep giving us one small packet per person, also first night the AC broke and was leaking water inside the top I had to sleep in my underwear They fixed the AC after we complained but ignored drying the carpet which starts to smell for the rest of the stay Place is not worth the money at all, they keep the lights dimmed all the time( I guess to save money)

Riad Saba is a beautiful Riad on the edge of the medina. It is conveniently located a few steps from a parking area meaning arrival and departure in a taxi is straightforward and doesn’t involve a long walk with bags. The room was just as shown on the website and the Riad is gorgeous. The breakfasts were lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful
