It was an old house that had been beautifully restored and was in the old quarter of Medina. The hotel employee, Mr. Khalid, was very warm, friendly and helpful.

Riad Elixir
We stayed for three nights here as a couple and felt so welcomed. The staff weee incredibly friendly and went out of the way to make sure we were comfortable. We cannot recommend this place enough and encourage anyone wanting a hotel to stay here for an authentic Moroccan experience. The room was spacious and clean upon arrival and cleaned daily. The shower was hot as well as powerful with basic toiletries provided.

Very disappointing
The Riad is situated down an alleyway, hard to find and in a rather rundown area. Khalid the manager was very hospitable and helpful. However the accomodation was basic, tired, and not the cleanest. At night trying to find your way back getting accosted by teenagers after your money to guide you. Even the tuktuk driver could not find it. We were booked in for 4 nights and left after 1.

This was an excellent, authentic stay. Our host was kind, and went out of his way to help us and show us the quickest routes and best restaurants. Beautiful roof terrace and the riad was breathtaking, breakfasts were very peaceful with birds around. We went to Lemoni for dinner one night on their recommendation and the food was excellent.

Wonderful stay, thank you Khalid!
We had a lovely stay in Riad Elixir. It was clean and a very beautiful building inside the medina. The chicken tagine we had for dinner was delicious. Khalid made us feel so welcome and went out of his way countless times to help us. He printed our boarding passes, ordered all our taxis, and personally walked us to restaurants. As two young females we appreciated this so much. Even though it was Ramadan, Khalid got up early twice to do us breakfast so we wouldn’t be late for our booked tour. If we come back to Marrakech, we wouldn’t stay anywhere else! :)

Beyond perfect!
I brought my Dad to Marrakech as a 60th birthday present. Neither of us had been to Morocco before. Riad Elixir was perfect in every way! The location, the host, the rooms, the service - could not have asked for any better! A massive thank you to Khalid for looking after us! You’ll be seeing us again soon! - from Hannah and Gary Boreham

We had a wonderful stay at Riad Elixir: It was our home from home for 5 days and our base for exploring Marrakech and beyond. Don't expect modern luxury: some of the charm is in the old fixtures and fittings...but everything works! Our host Moha was excellent, arranging excursions for us within Marrakesh and out to the Atlas mountains. Be warned that, while we could lock our bedroom door from the inside, we couldn't lock it when we left. However, the door of the Riad is always locked, Moha is usually around and there are only 5 rooms so you quickly get to know everyone staying; it felt really safe. The Riad is within the Medina meaning that it is only accesible by foot. Taxies can drop you a couple of minutes walk away. We would recommend getting Moha to arrange a transfer for you, so you get taken to the door. It is about a 30-minute walk from the Riad to Djemaa el Fna depending on how lost you get wondering the Souks. We recommend using Google Maps for navigation or getting a taxi from the nearby Bab Taghzout, but be prepared to bargain hard! If you want comfortable, authentic accommodation within the Medina with a great host, go for Riad Elixir.

This is not as it appears. It is open to the elements and noise from dogs and traffic and the mosque is going to be waking you at 6 and 6.30. They allow smoking at the breakfast table which is to all intents inside. This drifts into rooms as so enclosed. Breakfast is some triangles of bread with jam and butter. No fruit or choices. The kitchen is broken and dirty as are the showers and floors. It is hard to locate and you stand the chance of being harrarsed by local boys to escort you home at a cost of €s. Great if you are young and happy to slum it

tiny trouble but perfect response.
congratulations to moha and his wife for providing us with outstanding service. they were there 24/7 for us. we arrived late at night, served tea and a warm welcome. the room unfortunately was dusty and the shower backed up. we did bring this up the morning after and both issues were taken care of right away. moha went out of his way to help us whichever way we needed and walked us around and explained how to get to where we wanted to go. recommended and perfect for how much it costs.

I couldn’t stay at the property because it was too dirty and not security friendly at all. I had to look for another hotel to stay when I saw the state of the Riad . The pictures he has on Expedia site of the Riad is not what you will see when you arrive. The owner should please use the money he makes from the property to renovate it. Thank you

Nice hotel in Medina the old city
Stayed 4 nights. Definitely advised. The manager is Muha, is like your friend. Great hospitality. He arranges everything for u. And you? Just enjoy vacation. Also the hotel is very authentic and nice. You will feel real Marrakech life here. Try CousCous cooked by lady at hotel. Perfect! Muha is a great friend for tourists.

lovely Riad
Myself and my husband travelled for the first time to Marrackech and choose this Riad as it was in the Medina with good customer services review. We do not regret our choice and definitely recommend it. Warmest welcome we have ever experienced and our trip was a success thanks to Moha who has given us a lot of tips about the city (fare for the taxi, how to négociate ...) he is excellent! The Riad is very authentic, 5-10 min driving to Jamal el-fna and 10 min walk from the taxi point. (In the night the area is empty and dark but all went fine). We stay for a week and have time to go for few excursions organised by Moha. One thing which I did not appreciate is the hammam recommended the name is L'art de beauté located closed to cafe la flamme (rue du draa). I strongly do not recommend anyone to go there. The place looks nice but this is only an illusion. I.e while I took my shower the ladies from the hammam have offered "happy ending" to my husband... I felt very offended by this hammam which pretend to offer good time for couples. For the rest, you can definitely ask Moha for anything, he will will get everything for you! Thank you do much for making our trip enjoyable!
