Saved by the wonderful manager of the Riad
The place was over booked so we couldn’t stay even though hotels.com confirmed the booking in writing (that was after hotels.com had confirmed another booking and promptly took our money when the place then cancelled as it was being renovated). After several emails, Hotels.com eventually negotiated with the first hotel to refund our money. Needless to say it was very stressful for us but the wonderful Riad manager literally saved us which is why he gets 5 stars. His customer service is the best we’ve had in Morocco and more than equal to anything we’ve had worldwide.

Great Riad. Better host!
The riad was very quaint and cozy. When we walked in we were immediately greeted with biscuits and tea. There was an issue with Expedia and our host choiqui couldn’t see the second room booked via Expedia but he was able to quickly find a solution with another riad for my group to stay for the night. He was very helpful and walked to through the streets for an ATM and gave us brief directions to get to el Jmaan Fna. He even found a bottle of wine for us to enjoy after we got back. Great host! Thanks for the expierence.

Excellent value and fantastic hosts
Fantastic friendly hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. Mint tea on arrival, excellent advice regarding booking excursions and prices. Highly recommend I would visit again. The hotel is 20 min walk to the square but feels less so with the souks starting 10 mins away.

The riad staff are "family"
Had a great stay for 4 nights at this Riad. Booking here means that Chaouqi and his wonderful staff will take care of everything else for your stay in Marrakech. From taxi transfer to and from airport, map for medina and detailed directions for walking about, to money exchange, restaurants, city tours, day trips, hammams - they will help you with everything and we felt very safe. The staff even walked us to and from restaurants and to the souks so that we didnt get lost! The riad is lovely and quiet - we woke up to birds every morning. excellent and large breakfast. The pool was beautiful and clean and very refreshing after a day out in the heat.

A peaceful oasis in the heat of Marrakesh
Brilliant staff, went out their way to ensure we felt at ease and ensured we didn't get lost in the streets. Gave excellent advice on which restaurants to eat in. We had the whole riad to ourselves which was nice. The plunge pool was fantastic for the children to jump into after wandering around in the heat.

Fantastic
This is a great riad in the chaos of the city. The staff will do anything for you, you just need to ask. They will also give you advice on what to do and where to go. If you have a phone with maps I would recommend you mark the location of the hotel as it is down a small street which can be hard to find (though the staff give you their number and will come and collect you on a moped if you get lost!)

Excellent hotel with very helpful staff
When we arrived, the manager kindly took over 30 minutes with us to explain how to get around the city and where to go. The staff was very helpful and kind. We booked all our excursions with them, because they always had lower prices than all the travel agencies we found in the city.

Loved this traditional Riad
It was great. The Riad was a calm oasis, yet close to the main Souks of Marrakech. Everyone at the hotel was very friendly and helpful. We loved the pool and the roof terrace. And being in the medina, it means you can do all your exploring on foot.

Awesome service!!
If you are a service oriented traveler, then this is a great place to stay in Marrakech. Chouki and his staff were wonderful and provided 5 star service. They were great with my kids and extra helpful in arranging trips and recommending places to see. Chouki even offered to lead us to Casablanca just to ensure we made it. The Riad is comfortable but you will find that your GPS won't have the address and parking in the old town is limited. That said, just let Chouki know and he will pick you up at the airport. We had a great time and I would definitely stay here again!

Good location in Medina
I really enjoyed my three night stay here. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Location is great, just a short walk from the markets and other attractions, and far enough to to give you peace and quiet when you need it. Breakfast is great. Riad experience is really fun. Overall one of my more enjoyable hotel stays in a long time.

Worst service ever
If you want an OK room, ok food, for that price, it´s ok. If you like service, that kind of stuff:))) stay away from this place. You have a feeling that they do NOT like customers. This was a prepaid hotel. They refused to accept that the room was paid for, even when I showed them the papers from hotels.com. They just looked at me, and said that they have charged my card anyway..:) And I´m not acutally a difficult customer, and even I was kind of shocked from their way of dealing with customers. I called hotels.com. They tried to fix it, but met the same kind of attitude as I was met with. Hotels.com did their best, but I kind of hope they would just take that hotel out of their web-site. Nobody deserves to be treated like that:) The rooms were ok though, the sofa in the lounge as well:))

Excellent Riad, Wonderful Staff!
I was very pleased with this Riad that I was telling every fellow traveler we've been meeting on the streets of Marrakech about it. The riad is located in a quiet area of Bab Doukala. I was really surprised at how quiet the place is. It's like complete zen inside. We've stayed in a riad in the same area before and have been woken up by howling noise, this part of Bab Doukala was so quiet!!! Rafa and Sioke (sorry if the names were mis spelt) were the most amazing hotel/riad staff I've ever met. Very friendly and very accommodating. We were up very late the night before and they were alright for us to have our breakfast at 3:30pm the next day! I would definitely stay at Plein Sud again whenever I go back to Marrakech.

Slechte Riad
De Riad was totaal niet schoon! Vieze vloer, erge stank in de kamers en in de omgeving. Rioolgeur was omgeving de Riad. Erg gehorig, als je eenmaal het raam open doet, hoor je de andere gasten in de Riad. Onbijt was erg vies, 3x een haar in de jam en de glazen warem matig gewassen. Onze kraan was stuken het putje van de douch zat verstopt. Ik zal hier nooit meer heen gaan!!

Un país de Gente estupenda con pocos medios
El hotel es estupendo y la atención del personal maravillosa, pero el entorno está muy deteriorado y hay mucha pobreza. Hay mucha seguridad y no es peligroso a cualquier hora. Lo recomiendo, pero controlad mucho lo que se coma. Eviten frutas o zumos naturales y comida no cocinada o embotellada. Nosotros acabamos muy enfermos con gastroenteritis aguda. Otro peligro son los vehículos como bicis y motocicletas que circulan descontrolados por las calles del zoco y van atropellando a la gente haciendo un ruido infernal. No se puede pasear tranquilamente sin ser atropellado.

Underbara människor!
Fantastiskt fint bemötande av personalen som var hjälpsamma och helt underbara, man blev bemött och behandlad med respekt och kärlek. Rummen var något slitna men detta vägdes upp av den otroligt fina servicen och den hemlagade frukosten som serverades varje morgon. Vill även passa på och lyfta de utflykter som hotellet arrangerar mot en liten kostnad, vi hade det stora nöjet att få åka med Said som chaufför, något jag varmt rekommenderar. Hotellets läge är även det bra, tryggt område som ligger en kort promenad genom souken fram till torget Jmaa el fnaa.

Good Riad in Medina
This was the third Riad on our Trip through Marocco. The Riad and the room itself were OK, the bed was comfortable. The higher roof terasse has a great view to the Atlas mountains! Breakfast was good. It is located in a small road in the quiet northern part of the Medina. You can easily reach all important poits like Souks, Djemaa el Fna by foot. The best of the Riad was the friendly and helpful Manager that made our stay really good.

Eine Oase im Herzen Marrakechs
Das Personal ist super hilfsbereit! Das Hotel ist in einem sehr guten Zustand. Der pool ist perfekt um die ermüdeten Beine auszuruhen. Die Lage ist so perfekt, weil sie nah genug an allem dran ist, aber man sobald man im Riad ist nicht mehr vom Trubel mitbekommt! Meiner persönlichen Meinung nach das beste Riad in Marrakesch.

Nos encantó... es un riad tradicional, la atención es muy buena, nos fueron a recibir a un punto centrico para que no nos perdieramos, e incluso nos ofrecieron ir a buscarnos donde fuera si nos perdiamos en las calles de marrakech. Caminamos menos de diez minutos para llegar a la plaza. Al llegar nos sirvieron un te exquisito, y el desayuno (que estaba incluido) era muy bueno y abundante. Es un hotel en el que puedes pasar varios días. Las habitaciones eran amplias.
