We had a really lovely stay at Riad Altair. Couldn't really fault the property. Abdul was an absolute delight and such a lovely first impression, as were the whole staff who were all so friendly and helpful. The room was nice and comfortable, and the morning breakfast was tasty. They make eggs to order. I guess my 4-star rating probably comes down to value for money, as we paid close to $250 AUD a night, and I'm not quite sure it was worth that. Not quite sure we got bang for our buck, but maybe this is just Marrakech prices.

Absolutely the most wonderful staff and people we have had the pleasure to spend time with. Could not ask for a more beautiful atmosphere nor a more caring and accommodating compliment of staff. We, as a group, all travel frequently. And not a one of us has ever had a more wonderful experience. Absolutely our pleasure to have enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Riad Altair was truly one of the most enjoyable and welcoming stays we've ever had the pleasure to experience. All of the staff went above and beyond the call to be friendly, welcoming and helpful to our large, and frequently disorganized family, with Abdul even going so far as running out personally to procure a special childhood treat of my elderly father in law, when he learned that we had not yet managed to locate it on our own. The cleanliness and the smell of orange blossom a soothing treat to the senses. Many in our group are frequent travelers and all agree that this was one of the most wonderful accommodations that we've enjoyed. Add to that the staff, the friendliness and family and this was by far the beyond compare. Thank you to all for making everyone feel so welcome and at home.

NIce but ... and a big but
Two stars are deducted from the 5 the property should deserve, for two things. 1) Wrong information in the description, for example: calling the public jacuzzi, a pool; or saying that there is parking on site, to get there you have to walk for more than 150 m of pedestrian alleys, from the nearest street, it is impossible to have “parking on site”. 2) Lack of service policy. Although the staff is kind, the Riad does not think about the client. I share our experience. As soon as we booked, they wrote us offering transportation, we replied telling them we were have car. They never told us the street that goes close to the Riad is close, has been on repair for two months ago, it was impossible to get close by car. I left the car and my wife at 800 m from the Riad went to ask for help, luckily, I found Abdou who help us, they should have warned us about the situation, a set a meeting point. The night before leaving they asked us to pay local taxes and consumption, but they do have cards. Shorting the customer of local currency just before leaving is irresponsible, even more if you have to pay $420 Dirhams (+U$40) for two days.

Lovely riad, well decorated in great condition. Staff were friendly, gracious and hospitable. Only minor improvement could be having a full shower, instead of moveable bath nozzle that you have to hold while bathing.

Outstanding experience for us as a couple staying for 4 nights. It was such a pleasant experience for us that we will remember this for long time. The location is great and the staff are so helpful, polite that they add so much value to the overall great experience. The breakfast is excellent and dinner is outstanding. Arranged transport from/to airport without any problem and two 'day long tours' via the Riad - which turned out to be excellent too.

Really lovely hotel with outstanding staff.
Lovely hotel in a great location. Transfer taxi waiting for us and room just as pictured. The staff were available 24/7 and service fantastic. Just two small gripes: the pillows were not great and on the last day the patio heater was not working so eating in the courtyard was cold (there wasn't really anywhere else). Without these the experience would have been a straight 5* Would I go there again? Absolutely!
