Direct Reservations
We love direct reservations and we offer instant benefits to our guests, with a 10% discount if you become a member, our most updated rates and best service, even upgrades where available. By cutting the middleman and booking directly with us, you get a much more personal and responsive service and the knowledge that you are supporting a small independent business. There are not a lot of us left!
We always match any special offers found elsewhere at the time of booking, so do not hesitate to contact us.
Our on-line reservation system is secure and very easy to navigate. Book with us today!
We can arrange for our driver to wait there for you with a “Riad Mur Akush” sign (or a "Douiria" sign) and drive you to the riad. The cost for this service is 20 euros for up to 4 guests (there is a 5 euros “night supplement” for collections between 9pm - 6am). Please take a moment to find our driver as he is not always visible.
Larger groups can be accommodated with a larger vehicle, please send us the number of guests for a quote.
We highly recommend that you book this service, to make sure you arrive at the riad as quickly and safely as possible.
Train station and bus station collection is also available, please contact us for details.

Dinner or Lunch
Eating is a serious business in Morocco. The Moroccans know that the best meals are the ones prepared at home and the preparation of a meal can take all day.
If you wish to experience delicious homemade food there is no better place than at your riad in Marrakech. Our in-house cooks will prepare a magnificent feast for you which you can enjoy in the amazing atmosphere of the riad.
You can choose to have your meal at the coolness of the courtyard, the atmospheric dining room or the romantic terrace. Vegetarian or vegan guests as well as people with special diets are well catered for.
For your special events, we can also organise dinner with musicians, dancers or even henna artists.
Breakfast at the riad
Breakfast is included in our rates and you can enjoy this any time from 7am - 11am anywhere you want: your room, the courtyard, the terrace or the lounge.
If you would like an earlier breakfast, this can be arranged too.
Our generous breakfast consists of homemade pancakes, cake, pasties, fresh bread, jams, honey, eggs and really good coffee or tea. For special dietary requests, please notify us when booking.
Excursions
We have been in Marrakech for many years and our priority is always to offer to our guests, the best experience possible at a reasonable price. Our riad manager has been a country guide for over 30 years now, knows the finest places to visit and can help create a truly authentic Moroccan experience. We will organise your day trips for you as well as longer trips throughout Morocco, tailor-made to you.
Please contact us for details and do not book your trip without speaking to us first.
Special events
We also cater for a large number of special events: birthday parties, hen nights, wedding parties, special occasions etc.
We are happy to organise pamper days for you and your group in our Marrakech Riad, where a small team of beauty therapists will be at your disposal for treatments, barbecue lunches and dinners, large banquets, day trips, special parties with live music and traditional dancers...
Young Children
`Due to its traditional architecture, riads are not always a very safe place for small children; although we welcome our young guests with much enthusiasm, please note that the safety of your children is your responsibility. Well behaved children of 4 years old and over, are welcome at our riad. Please let us know the age of your child when you book.
The riad is licenced to operate as a maison d’hotes (not all riads are), we have liability insurance and are equipped with fire extinguishers and smoke alarms for your peace of mind.
We treat our staff with respect and equality and we make sure they get a good salary and all the employment benefits they are entitled to.
Experiences
Medina guides, hammam treatments, cooking classes, pool days, shopping tours and anything else!
With so many options, it is difficult to know where to start and who to trust.
We have a few very carefully selected collaborators that we can recommend for your experiences and are happy to book more or less anything for you. If you are looking for something unique, we will do all we can to find the best people and arrange it for you.
Retreats at Riad Mur Akush
