Amazing stay overall
Riad Aliya felt like our home for 6 nights. I don't normally write reviews but I compelled after staying in other riad's in Morocco, we really began to appreciate how amazing this one was. It was mainly the humble hospitality we received from the hotel manager (very genuine man) that made it all worth the stay. The hotel room was very clean and best of all had heat. We went in the end of December, which was quite chilly especially at night.

A haven amongst the mayhem
lovely riad in a quiet but interesting location a 10-15 minute walk from the mayhem of the main square. Thought we'd never find it again in the maze of alleyways but once you've done it once it's ok.

Brilliant Riad in a quiet part of town!
We arrived at Riad Aliya the morning after we were due to arrive and we greeted by one of the lovely members of staff who checked us in and made us a lovely Moroccan breakfast. The riad is only about a 10 - 15 minute walk away from Jamaa el Fnaa square and a 5 minute walk from the Saadian Tombs. For us it felt like a real sanctuary from the chaos that is Marrakech and so could not recommend it enough. We were only there for 3 nights and had a wonderful time including a day tour to the Atlas mountains and waterfalls. I would recommend a day trip to escape the madness of the city.

Amazing service
Located close to the airport and a short (10-15min) walk to the main square/souks. It looks recently renovated so everything is fresh and in good order. The staff were all so welcoming and always available to help. I can't compliment them enough for making our stay so enjoyable. Rooms were good sized, clean and comfortable. There is no TV in the rooms (which wasn't a surprise as I've stayed in riads before) but it would have been nice on a handful of occasions when you come back from being out and just want some downtime in your room. The breakfast was tasty and prepared fresh each morning. We didn't book an airport pickup. Upon arrival there is a taxi stand and the fares are all listed on a large board and the prices are fixed and reasonable. To get around during our stay, walking was fine, but for longer trips taxis are plentiful and cheap from the main street outside the medina. We decided to book an airport transfer from the riad for departure for the convenience of not having to carry our bags to the street where the taxis are. Unfortunately our ‘driver’ walked us from the riad through the medina back to the main street where he had parked his taxi (the same place we could have just walked ourselves and got our own taxi for a fraction of the price). It's not a big thing but we felt a little cheated right at the end by that experience. Don't let this put you off though. Overall we had a great time here and the staff were amazing.

Hospitality at it's best
I booked the transfer service from the airport which was a blessing as many locations in the Medina are difficult to find at night. Upon arriving the Riad was quiet. there was no rush to check in the focus was to have me settled and relaxed in my new environment. They entire time stayed I felt that the Riad was a home away from home. I would definitely recommend this Riad to any travellers.

Not worth staying at this hotel.
We stayed here the night prior to a two day hike in the mountains due to very positive comments we had seen on this sight. However though the staff were initially friendly and engaging we were left disappointed by our stay at this Riad. The morning of our departure, the water had been turned off due to a leakage of some sort. This was done without informing us, apologizing or making other arrangements. We were left without any water for showering and all the staff could say was it was not their fault and hoped we would not write a bad review. There was no attempt at trying to assist in helping make other arrangements, offering a discount or some compensation or added benefit or to help with the situation. eg making arrangements to allow us to bath in another Riad close by. In addition internet access was intermittent and only minimally accessible in the rooms. So while this has several positive points-it was clean and ordered; customer service, with the desire to help with an unexpected problem wasn't there. Definitely not worth the money to stay in this place.

Great for women.
Absolutely amazing. Beautiful, clean, super relaxing. An added bonus is that the hotel is run by women, which was great, especially when it came to taking a dip in the plunge pool in my bikini. Great food, very comfortable, a nice part of town and I would certainly recommend.
