Disliked: Staff & service
I stayed in Marrakech for 9 days and at three Riads. This was the most disappointing stay. The staff met us for our airport transfer and just said, “follow me” no hello, no checking to see who we were. Just took off at an abrupt pace with no offer to help with our bags. We travelled light (just backpacks and one carry on suitcase) but still struggled to keep up in the heat with our bags following the staff through the twisting alleyways. We were asked to pay as soon as we arrived, they told us the card reader was only for larger payments (our total was over 100 euros) and we needed to pay in cash immediately. We didn’t have enough so out we went to get more from the atm. When we returned, they had no change and asked us to go out and get more to pay the next day. Our room was fine, if a bit lacking. Two towels for showering but no hand towels or wash clothes. The whole area is under construction and everything was dusty. The staff showing us the room turned on the light for us, it flickered and kept going out so she just turned it off and then left. The rooftop was a nice place to relax and the morning we left another staff offered us a light breakfast before we had to depart which was a nice touch. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again. It felt dated, impersonal, and like we were an inconvenience for being there. If you’re on a budget and just need a place to sleep this will suffice. If you’re looking for an enjoyable stay, consider other Riads.

Excellent week-end prolongé au Riad Viva

Nous avons passé un week-end prolongé à Marrakech entre amis et nous avons choisi pour la 2eme fois le Riad Viva. L’accueil est toujours aussi agréable et le personnel bienveillant et toujours prompt à satisfaire nos demandes. L’emplacement du Riad est parfait, très jolie vue sur le jardin de la Mamounia depuis la terrasse, à qq minutes à pied des souks… Nous le recommandons 👍

Séjour agréable

Accueil chaleureux et très souriant. Le Riad est très beau, propre et petit dejeuner bon et copieux. Bonne localisation, tout se fait à pied. Très belle terrasse et petite piscine agréable pour se rafraichir. A savoir : le riad se situe dans une zone pseudo piétonne (pas de possibilité de deposer les bagages au pied du Riad). Le parking public payant est à 5 min a pied.

This is classic Morocco. You walk down alleys in the Medina to a traditional door with a small sign. Once you step inside, you are in a traditional home, complete with tiled central courtyard open to the skies (they have a roof that closes over) and a central fountain. My room was off the courtyard with a wooden grill over the window and shutters on the inside for privacy. It was a very quiet place, clean and comfortable. I had a glass of wine by the fountain and had a traditional dinner of Moroccan salads and lemon chicken tagine for dinner. (Breakfast was a banana because I don't eat wheat.) They arranged for a taxi to the airport. The driver arrived on time and walked me back out of the alleys. The airport is about 15 minutes away. The taxi, dinner and drinks must be paid for in cash. They accepted dollars, euros and dirhams. When it came time to run the credit card for the room, the machine wasn’t working. I was prepared to pay cash, but the attendant wildly miscalculated the exchange rate (over $20) and would not acknowledge his error. Finally, we were saved when the machine started working.

Very friendly and beautiful Riad, staff great, on site Hamam and massage highly recommended, breakfast tasty and useful though only continental. Nothing too much trouble for them, only downside is location is slightly concerning down a dead end alley which late at night can feel uncomfortable, though we experienced no real issues just one instance of begging.

Agréable séjour dans cet hôtel : personnel prévenant et efficace. Terrasse avec une très jolie vue sur les jardins de l'hôtel Mamounia. Bon petit déjeuner et repas de bonne qualité. Wifi qui fonctionne très bien. Proximité des tombeaux saadiens, de la place et des souks. A recommander.

Nice riad that offers value for money

Very nice riad in a good location that offers good value for money. Only let down was the breakfest the day of departure. We checked out early and we told that they would have a small breakfest ready. It was indeed small and much less than the day before. The guy at the riad did not care much and just replied that the shops were not open..

Ein Rias zum Wohlfühlen

Wir verbrachten 6 Tage im Rias Viva und unsere Erwartungen wurden nicht enttäuscht. Das Riad ist der hübsch, gepflegt und mit viel Liebe gestaltet. Das Personal war immer hilfsbereit und freundlich, die Massage bei Amal war sehr gut und ist nur zu empfehlen. Auch der kleine Pool, der vor allem unsere Tochter ( 8 Jahre) sehr gefallen hat und der in einem Riad nicht Gang und Gäbe ist, war immer für eine Erfrischung willkommen. Das Riad liegt in einer ruhigen Seitenstraße am Rande der Medina und dennoch sind alle Sehenswürdigkeiten gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Obwohl unser Zimmer im Erdgeschoß lag, habe ich es nie als laut empfunden. Im Gegenteil, ich fand es sehr schön, nicht in der Anonymität eines großen Hotels zu wohnen, sondern Teil einer kleinen Gemeinschaft des Riads und seiner Nachbarschaft zu sein. Wir werden bestimmt nicht das letzte mal im Riad Viva gewesen sein.

Preis/Leistung bestens

Sofort wieder würde ich das Viva buchen. Alle Mitarbeiter sind hilfsbereit und sehr freundlich. Die Lage ist für die wesentlichen Sehenswürdigkeiten ideal. Lassen Sie sich abholen. Das erste Mal dorthinzufinden ist eine Herausforderung. Das Frühstück auf der Dachterasse ab 8.00 Uhr lässt wenig Wünsche offen (kein Buffet). Amal und Yusuf sind besonders zuvorkommend. Gute Mitarbeiterauswahl!

Sehr gute Location für Marrakech!

Yusuf ist sein eigentlicher Name, für Deutsche nennt er sich Joseph, für Spanier Jose,...er begrüßt den Gast mit einer Ruhe und Freundlichkeit, die ihresgleichen sucht. Er ist nicht nur für die Rezeption zuständig sondern serviert einem auch das wundervolle Frühstück auf der Dachterasse. Lassen Sie sich vom Flughafen abholen, das Riad ist nicht leicht zu finden. An der Einrichtung fällt die Liebe zum Detail auf. Auf der Dachterasse sind auch einige Liegen und ein Pool. Die Aussicht ist auch den Garten des besten Hotels Marrakechs: La Mamounia. Unbedingt mal hingehen! Keine kurze Hose, keine Turnschuhe also fein anziehen. Wenn es das Budget hergigt, empfehle ich das Mittagsbuffet am Pool dieses Luxushotels. Ein Traum an Auswahl und Qualität. Es besteht die Gefahr zu viel zu essen. Der Preis ist mit knapp 70 Euro happig. Man lebt nur einmal. 12.30 bis 15.30 mit Wifi Code. Beim Riad Viva kann man nichts falsch machen. Nicht mehr weiter suchen - einfach Buchen!

Riad Viva Recommendation

This Riad is perfect for stay more than one day in Marrakech. The location is perfect. Everything is near. The people in the Riad are very kind. They answer all of your questions. The terrase is perfect to take the sun. The room was amazing with many facilities.
