I have been traveling for business and leasure all the time and been to many countries in my life. But my experience with Laurent and Riad Al Badia is exceptional. This charming Riad is situated in an ideal location, not in the crowded tourist area but walking distance to major point of interest. The service is great and the breakfast is delicious. After we checked in, Laurent gave us a very detailed orientation of Marrakech, he walked us through all the major places with drawing on the map, but most important of all, he prep us with a culture introduction of Morocco. The conversation with him gave us a while new aspects of Morocco and the people. I am very glad to have this conversation with Laurent, it brings our entire Morocco trip to a different lever. I will strongly recommend Riad Al Badia if you visit Marrakech.

I stayed at Riad al Badia in February 2020 with my mother and it honestly is one of the best places I've ever stayed at. Laurent is extremely hospitable and helpful - always made sure our stay was perfect. Also the cleaning staff was very sweet, always smiling. We felt very welcome there. We had one dinner at the Riad and it was SO delicious! I am vegan and it was not a problem.The riad is in a quieter part of the city, but everything is within walking distance.

After spending hours reading website reviews, I booked the Coral Room at the Riad Al Badia, and I am so glad that I did. Before we even arrived, Laurent proved as responsive as reviewers said, by accommodating our request for a driver to pick us up from the airport, and also to take us to various sights within Marrakech two days later. The driver (Jamal) was waiting for us with a sign when we arrived, and when we got to the riad, Laurent gave us mint tea, some sweets, and an extremely helpful overview of Marrakech including things to do (and not to do) during our visit. The day after we arrived, we took a private tour of Marrakech. When we returned to the riad, we sat down with Laurent to plan where our driver, Jamal, should take us the following day. Laurent's suggestions were all on point and we had an absolutely marvelous time. Additionally, Jamal was always where he said he would be when he said he would be there, and we were very grateful to Laurent for arranging with him to be our driver. Our room, like the entire riad, was clean and nicely decorated. There was plenty of space, and an in-room safe for our belongings. I also appreciated the large bottle of water Laurent had in the room for us.Breakfast each morning was delicious and filling, and ready and waiting when we came downstairs. Laurent was kind enough to accommodate an early breakfast for us two mornings so that we could meet tour groups on time.Throughout our entire visit, Laurent and his staff went out of their way to make us feel at home. If we return to Marrakech, we will definitely stay at the Riad al Badia again.

Great little place - like most riads it's just off the main road but their driver will help you with bags etc. Staff were all super friendly and helpful,...

Great little place - like most riads it's just off the main road but their driver will help you with bags etc. Staff were all super friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was different each day which was nice. Lovely pool for a hot day and a roof terrace with great views.

Stayed at Riad Al Badia between 14th/19th Jan 2020. As with a lot of the previous reviews I can only commend Laurent the manager. No one could be more attentive and informative than this gentleman, an absolute prince amongst men.The Riad itself was lovely and relaxing away from the hustle and bustle of places like Djemma al Fnaa. All the staff were excellent,seemingly appearing from nowhere when you needed anything . Laurent gave us a very engrossing and humorous rundown on everything to do in Marrakesh including how to avoid the pitfalls that some tourists fall into.Everyone of our group of 6 have said that if we return to Marrakesh we will definitely be staying at Riad Al Badia.

We stayed at the Riad Al Badia last October and were not disappointed. This beautiful Riad run by Laurent and his team exceeded all our expectations from arrival. It is the most stunning place set in the quiet back streets of Marrakech. The first evening we opted to eat a meal there and it was one of the finest eating experiences we have ever had. All the staff are very kind and attentive and Laurent a font of local knowledge and we could feel his enthusiasm for the country and the city. He spent a lot of time helping us with places to visit and eat and even took us to the taxi car when we left. Our room was quiet and cleaned every day and had all the amenities of a 4 star hotel but with a lot more personal touches. We arrived as strangers and felt we left as friends and family. We can't thank you all enough and would highly recommend the Riad Al Badia to anyone who wants to visit Marrackeh. Well done to you all

We stayed here last October, hospitality second to none. We had an evening meal which was delicious. My partner had been here in the spring with some friends and so fell in love with the Riad Al Badia that she immediately booked a weekend for me and her. Laurent is a wonderful host, charming. He told us where to go, how to get there and how to miss the crowds - we are in fashion so it was important for us to see the YSL museum - he organised it so well with horse and carriage that we missed the crowds and truly enjoyed the museum. There is nothing bad I can say - it was a marvelloius experience and one which I will hope to reapeat in the coming year. So if you´re going to Marrakech - give Laurent a call, you couldn´t do better for an authentic experience.

We stayed at the Riadh Al Badia one night, and we will never forget it as long as we live. From the first step into the special door in the wall, where we got the warmest welcome we have ever received . ( and we have stayed in m a n y nice hotels) We experienced a tea ceremony and got informative stories about the Riyad and about Marrakech. The room we stayed in was beautiful , yet simple decorated in authentic marroccan style. The food we had was delicious, fresh and authentic marroccan . And the scenery were we ate was beyone everything we have e v e r experienced. We cant wait to come back.
