From the moment we stepped into this beautiful riad, we were captivated by its charm and tranquility. Tucked away in the heart of Marrakech, this hidden gem is a perfect blend of traditional Moroccan elegance and modern comfort. The riad itself is breathtaking—gorgeous courtyards filled with lush greenery, intricate tilework, and a serene rooftop terrace with stunning views over the city. Every corner is thoughtfully designed, creating an atmosphere of pure relaxation. What truly made our stay exceptional was the staff. They were incredibly warm, attentive, and always ready to go above and beyond to make us feel at home. From organizing excursions to offering local recommendations, their hospitality was unmatched. And the food—simply incredible! Every meal was a feast of authentic Moroccan flavors, from perfectly spiced tagines to freshly baked pastries for breakfast. If you're looking for an unforgettable stay in Marrakech, this riad is a must. We can’t wait to return!

Riad Kniza is a beautiful oasis of calm, perfectly located in Marrakesh. The rooms are beautiful with wonderful carved and painted ceilings, antique furniture, fabulous beds and excellent friendly staff. The courtyards have fountains filled with cut roses and there’s a lovely rooftop terrace on which to soak up the sun and enjoy a drink. The riad has been beautifully restored by Mr Mohamed Bouskri whom we met as is run by him and his family. We were a little nervous before arriving that being within the city walls might be a bit of an overwhelming experience but everyone in Marrakesh is extremely friendly, courteous and don’t pester tourists. Going in February worked well with winter sun and none of the oppressive heat of the summer. We had a wonderful time. My wife and I travel frequently and Riad Kniza is in the top five places we’ve ever stayed alongside the likes of the Oberoi Hurghada in Egypt and Ashford Castle in Ireland. Gerry & Paula

Riad Kniza far exceeded our expectations, even though these were already high given the photos provided on Booking.com and elsewhere we found the Riad far more beautiful in reality. The craftsmanship of the tiling and carving employed in the floors, walls and ceilings in each room and courtyard was some of the best that we have seen anywhere, and together with the attention to detail involved in selection the furnishings meant that there was something interesting to study wherever we looked. We had a wonderful fresh and varied breakfast on the roof terrace every morning, which included both the usual staples as well as some local items. All of the staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful and really made for a very relaxing stay in extremely palatial surroundings.

Lovely Riad within the Medina, good location, quiet. There are no lifts as is the norm with most Riads but we had 63 steps to climb to the rooftop for breakfast every day which is difficult if you are not very mobile. Breakfast was OK but they need to know what time you will be having breakfast as they pre-cook the omelette and set up a standard breakfast which is the same for everyone. We would have preferred a La carte. We stayed in a Suite which was spacious and comfortable but the bathroom feels rather old and is in need of renovation. There is a rather deep bath-tub with hand shower and small rain shower, which may be difficult for some people to climb into. We only stayed the one night but can recommend.

Total oasis amongst the medina madness. Everything about the riad helped make our stay relaxing and comfortable. Having someone met us at the closest drop off point to help with our heavy luggage was much appreciated! Otherwise it would be a stressful journey through crowds and uneven paths. Welcome tea and snacks by the pool helped us further relax. The riad has several private and beautiful areas for guests to unwind. You can simply listen to the birds or water fountain sounds, enjoy views of the sky and city or relax in the pool and hammam. The whole place is beautifully decorated and an architectural gem. Breakfast time is flexible till noon and staff helped us book several other meals and transfers.
