Our stay was amazing. We hope to go back
Our stay at Dar Housnia was amazing. We hope to go back. The decor was beautiful, the staff were friendly and we had excellent service from them. The food was delicious and the room was stunning. The location is within walking distance of the Souks and main square. The rooftop was peaceful and comfortable to sunbathe with a drink. Thank you Abdul for our lovely rooftop breakfasts, it was a lovely way to start the day.

Beautiful property with incredible staff. We don’t like the Medina so much to stay. I have to say that despite the surroundings being sketchy, we never felt scared or in danger. Abdel made sure we were always taken care of. We also had a great driver called Nabil. In short, great place with great staff but you must be ok with staying in the mayhem of the Medina.

The staff at Dar Housnia were wonderful and made us feel right at home! The Riad itself is as beautiful as it is authentic with intricate detailing, lovely pool, and beautifully gardened roof terrace.
I strongly recommend dining at the hotel at least once, as the chef prepares delicious traditional Maroccan dinners and breakfasts. Getting to the hotel is an interesting and immersive experience, we arranged an airport shuttle with the Riad who drove us to the square nearby, where we met a person who couriered our luggage the rest of the way (~500m) through the Medina to the Riad.
The location is excellent; close to some of the best places to visit in Marrakech including Le Jardín Secret, Badi Palace, Souk Semmarine, and many others.
I would strongly recommend this Riad to anyone interested in staying in the old city of Marrakech.

5* home away from home. this is a wonderful hideaway in the heart of Medina. Mustapha and Ali are the kindest and most helpful hosts. they gave us all the tips and trick to survive in the crazy Medina. All suites are unique and very comfy with beautiful design. Delicious brekkie. Love chilling in the evenings on the patio. Make sure you use their airport transfer to connect swiftly as taxi won't get you to the doors and medina streets are very difficult to navigate.

Ce Riad et le personnel est exceptionnel. Magnifique par son décor mais aussi bien par sa quiétude, nous avons été traités comme des rois. La nourriture y est abondante et délicieuse. Nous recommandons cet endroit à tout le monde.
