- a very nice and helpful administrator, - close to the coach station, - good breakfast, - free tea any time, - cozy terrace with the view on the roofs of the city
- no door in the toilet! (there is just a piece of a wall that separates the room from the toilet but it's too short; basically, the toilet bowl is in front of your bed), - there were 2 windows in the room (to the inside courtyard and the street) and it was extremely noisy, - very small room (the bed is immediately after you enter), - very low water pressure in the taps, - unpleasant street where the Riad is located

Excellent stay at Riad Shambla. We were there for our honeymoon and they made the room up for us which was very nice. The Riad was in excellent condition and was always clean. The breakfast that we were served every morning was brilliant and so tasty. But the best thing about the Riad was its staff and especially Rabie. He looked after us from the minute we got there to even after our stay at the Riad had ended. We moved to a different Riad after but Rabie still made sure that we were looked after, booking excursions for us and helping with recommendations. He was incredibly hard working and went above and beyond for us and every resident there. If I could recommend staying at the Riad for just Rabie I would. He was truly brilliant.
Having arrived there quite late at night we did not expect it to be so busy when we first arrived there and unfortunately the location of the Riad meant we had to go through the backstreets of the Medina. My only advice is that to not take the locals up on the help of locating the Riad as they will charge you and hassle you for money. It is rather easily locatable and if you really need go to a shop and ask someone there.

It's a beautiful riad, well located.
The pool is refreshing and rooftop sunny. The staff is nice and friendly, the guy helped us park our car and negotiate good price (30 dirham per night). Room was clean, though rather small, bed comfortable and A/C quiet.
No door separating the room and bathroom.
It was quite loud on the street at night.

Rabie welcomed us with a big smile and tasty tea. He made our 3-day stay very comfortable. We really felt at home. He even separated the beds to make more space in our room. He answered all of our questions patiently and gave us great recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. The staff is super friendly, kind and accommodating. Beautiful riad, location was perfect for us and very safe. Our delicious breakfast was served daily next to the pool which we enjoyed greatly.

We really liked this riad and especially our host, he is very welcoming and he always helped us when we had some questions about the city! our room was very nice and clean, and the pool in the lobby was a perfect place to hide from heat during the day. Not to mention the view from the terrace and mint tea made by the host - just breathtaking! we booked it also with breakfast included and were very satisfied - it was a decent, fresh and tasty breakfast made right when you come! 100% recommended! we thank you for your hospitality!

The riad itself Is a paradise inside Marrakech, the room Is confortable and very clean, there's a rooftop that you can use for free and believe me Is really special to have dinner on It. The breakfast Is Amazing with tipical products from Marrakech made Daily and also cooked on site. But the best of the best of the best that worth every single second spent here Is Rabio the receptionist, he's Amazing, polite, gentle, accomodating, everything u can Imagine. He helped us a lot during our stay giving us everything we need at anytime without esitation. We Will return for sure because people like him deserve t be the top in everything he will do in his Life
Thanks again

We really enjoyed our stay at Riad Shambala, the staff made our stay amazing. Arabee was very friendly, kind, always happy to help and recommended us many places to visit and also provided us with a map! Simply the best Riad to stay in. Very easy to get to the new city from this Riad and to Jama Square too.

Disappointing
Location was okay.
The pictures of Riad are very old. Riad is falling apart. Dirty carpet in the room, broken table by the bed, broken sofa on the terace, broken drain of the shower.... The service was the bear minimum, no effort from the staff. The room is not cleaned daily and towels are not changed. At brakfast there is no plate, industrial cheep juice full of sugar, no botled water to offer. When asked for dinner they could not be bothered to give any of their menu or offer a suggestion to eat someplace else.

The staff were great, always there to help you out with everything and good English too. The road itself is lovely with the rooftop terraces and the plunge pool.
The bathroom wasn't the cleanest and the view from the terrace isn't great but I really enjoyed the road and I'd recommend it.

Riad Shambala is simply the best accomodation you can find in the medina of Marrakech: it's located in the northern old town but not in a too touristic area, it's close to every attraction and very cheap. The atmosphere is beautiful, the rooms are fresh and you can relax near a little pool, in a comfortable courtyard. Rabee, the guest, is a very kind and nice person: he suggested us a superb place to eat tajines, and gave us lots of tips for our visit. He speaks a fluent english and prepare an excellent mint tea. Riad Shambala is definitely your place in Marrakech!
Thank you for your information!
