Riad Origines is a lovely hotel, where everything was cleaned and everyone was extremely nice and helpful. To be honest, it might have been one of my best experiences in a hotel. Everything I needed, the staff was very helpful. They were worried about our welfare, always asking where we were going and if we needed directions going there. Adi was incredible, thank you so much for your hospitality. Everyone that wants a true morrocan experience, please stay in this Riad. From the location to the style of architecture and food, these Riad is exactly what morrocan hospitality is about. Thank you very much, will definitely come back!

Marrakech can be bit daunting if you've never been; Riad Origines was a very good place to base ourselves. The staff (especially Yussef (may have spelt that wrong)) were very helpful, gave good tips on where to go and how to stay safe. They spoke English, French, Arabic and the Berber language well. Always happy to help. Particularly liked Yussef explaining to us to call the Berbers the Amazigh people (Berber being a rather unpleasant colonial name derived from the word barbarian).Hotel was visually very attractive (sort of highly modern Islamic design with open-roofed inner courtyard + pool, pillars, curtains, drapes etc, all very appealing and clean with mod cons), had a pool, good food, clean, attractive air-conditioned rooms, reasonable prices, wifi everywhere, a great roof terrace with lots of loungers and comfy seats.Geographically well positioned with good access to the old and new parts of the city, not far to walk or taxi to pretty much all tourist destinations. They also offered excellent guides (reasonably priced) to show you round the city if you like; our guide Hussain was knowledgeable, friendly, wise and had great language skills.The reservation/booking arrangements all went flawlessly, no problems/errors/delays checking in or anything like that.Can strongly recommend for families/couples/anyone else.

We had a nice stay here in April 2015. The riad is beatifully decorated, mixing traditional Moroccan decor with modern elements. Staff is friendly and takes good care of you as a guest - and the kitchen serves up delicious tagine dishes and amazing moroccan breakfast pancakes. The roof terrace is the cherry on top, very romantic in the evening...perfect for proposals!It is worth ordering airport transfer through the riad, as it is difficult to find. However our driver did not show up /we did not find him, so we took a taxi and some of the local boys showed us the way.This is not recommended, but it worked out in the end - remember to have local currency on hand to tip the boys if you end up in the same situation.

Went above and beyond to welcome us, driving me around the market to find the best place for new luggage and helping negotiate with the parking guys nearby. Clean, spacious rooms. Great breakfast also. Highly recommend.

As others have shared, the structure and design are nice. We felt like our room was a refuge from the chaotic town. It felt elegant, yet on a budget.The courtyard was small and there is no pool, but you can't have it all at this price.It was well, but not perfectly, maintained (black mold on the bathroom ceiling).Our room was spacious. We saw other rooms that are smaller, but they had much bigger bathrooms- so it is a trade-off.Rooftop was nice. Peaceful area of the old town- yet a bit of a walk to get food and the like. Staff was friendly enough. Breakfast was just coffee and breads. Most of all, they were honest in their pricing and didn't play any money games- which is not always assured in Marrakech. (We had a bad experience with our previous Riad, and moved here because of it).If the price is reasonable when you are booking- grab it.

This Riad was absolutely amazing, it definitely exceeded our expectations and every time we thought it couldn't get any better, it did! We came to this Riad unexpectedly as where we originally booked another Riad, however they did a mistake with our reservation (Riad La maison Rouge) and transferred us here, which we are very pleased about. Said in particular was a very big part in our holiday, his customer service was shocking (in a good way). When we arrived he gave us many tips for when we go out and gave us a phone where we could contact him in case we got lost or had any queries while we was out, he was also willing at any time to collect us from the taxi drop off point to accompany us back to the Riad. His attention to us was more than 5 stars. Breakfast was really nice and the day that we had an excursion at 8 am, Said ensured that we had breakfast before we left as breakfast is served from 8am. The room was fabulous, very spacious and daily cleaning service. Would definitely return to this Riad!

Being honest, we booked to stay in Medina without much research. New to Morocco or North Africa, we were pretty green. In short, we needed a bit of looking after! The staff at Riad Origines certainly did that. They booked us a great guide to the area on our first morning, an excellent excursion to the Atlas Mountains, they fed us great tagines, and got us out of a scrape when another self-appointed 'guide' walked us to the door and then expected significant payment as a result! The team here are kind and diligent - the Riad itself is clean, relaxing, has great mint tea and a lovely roof terrace where you really feel above the city. We really recommend the establishment.As hinted, we did not always find the area itself easy. Yes it is exciting to be 'authentic' but you do need to know, as we should have, that it's easy to get lost and that any pause to take bearings or check a map will instantly draw offers of 'help', always with the expectation of payment if in any way taken. Outside of this, while hospitality was beyond reproach inside any restaurant, shop etc, there was a lot of being stared at and sized up on the streets. Neither do the taxis go as far as the Riad so the last half km always has to be walked (although motorbikes certainly do nip round the narrow streets and alleys - sometimes at high speed!).Chances are, if you're reading this, you already know a lot of this. If you're up for life in Medina, then Riad Origines will be your best possible hosts.

The staffs are extremely helpful and friendly. They did everything for us above and beyond. Not only organizing all the activities, reservations, transportation, my birthday party, performers, delicious meals but also help us shopping and exploring the city. I really feel like the princess at the riad like home. Thank you so so much for the wonderful week and we will be back! <3
