My stay at Riad Pachavana was quite nice, although there were a few hiccups along the way. The warm hospitality from the staff, especially Hamza and Kamisa, truly made the experience shine. However, I had some difficulty navigating the initial arrival process, which dampened the start of my visit. Overall, a lovely stay in a charming location with excellent amenities.

Located in a quiet sidestreet that felt like an oasis, Riad Pachavana is conveniently close to the lively souks and attractions of Marrakesh. The area was easy to navigate, making it perfect for exploring.

The breakfast offered was quite filling, including delicious Moroccan breads and pancakes. Although it would have been nice to have more variety, the quality was better than expected for a complimentary meal.

The Riad provided all necessary facilities, including a lovely rooftop terrace suitable for relaxation, along with other cozy spots throughout the hotel. However, some details like cleanliness of cutlery and general information could use improvement.

Riad Pachavana offers a lovely ambiance with beautiful decor that makes you feel at home. The staff, especially Khamisa, are amazing and truly enhance the experience. However, the distance to Jemaa El Fna square felt longer than advertised, and the rooftop terrace could use more sunbeds.

I stayed in the Turquoise room, which was spacious and well-lit. However, the air conditioning wasn’t working properly, leading to an uncomfortable night. Thankfully, Khamisa promptly moved me to a better room the next day.

The Riad is situated within the Medina, which means it's central, yet the walk to Jemaa El Fna square took longer than expected. While it was a quieter area, the initial approach to the Riad wasn’t very pleasant.

The breakfast served in the courtyard was good, featuring fresh Moroccan bread, pancakes, and orange juice. But the dinner on my last night was the real highlight, particularly their Tajine, which was one of the best I had in Morocco.

The facilities were well-maintained. I enjoyed the small pool, a lovely spot to cool down. However, the rooftop terrace could benefit from more sunbeds for relaxation.

My stay at Riad Pachavana was filled with wonderful experiences and a sense of tranquility. The staff treated me like family, always attentive and eager to assist. While the location required a bit of walking to get to popular spots, the welcoming atmosphere and exquisite dining made it all worthwhile. A few minor issues with the air conditioning in my initial room left me slightly uncomfortable, but the staff's prompt response truly impressed me.

My stay at Riad Pachavana had its highs and lows. The riad itself is beautiful and well-kept, with a serene atmosphere that provided a welcome escape from the lively streets of Marrakech. However, I experienced significant service issues, particularly with meal times and some staff interactions that left much to be desired. Overall, while the ambiance is charming. the hospitality could certainly improve.

I stayed in the Turquoise room, which offered a comfortable double bed and ensured privacy. However, I found it smaller than I expected and shared a wall with the adjacent room, which made things a bit noisy.
Service

The service was incredibly welcoming at times, especially from Hamiza, who provided great local guidance. Yet, I faced moments where staff displayed rudeness and didn’t adhere to the service standards expected. It felt frustrating, especially when I experienced delays waiting for basic service like water.
Location

The location was quite good. A 10 to 20-minute walk to the main square through well-lit streets allowed me to enjoy a more local feel. However, the surrounding area felt a bit unsafe compared to other places in Morocco.
Dining

Breakfast offerings were decent but quite basic, primarily sweet items with limited choice. Dining experiences felt below par compared to other places I stayed in Morocco, as they lacked local authenticity and varied options.

The facilities were generally good, with adequate amenities like housekeeping and a pleasant pool area. However, the sluggish breakfast service indicated a need for better staffing during busy periods.

I had a lovely stay at Riad Pachavana. the decor was stunning and the staff was incredibly welcoming. However, the location was a bit tricky to navigate, especially at night, and one night our original room's air-conditioning wasn't working well. Thankfully, the team was quick to rectify this and moved me to a better room. Overall, a nice experience with excellent hospitality.

The location was ideal in terms of culture, yet it's quite a walk to Djemaa El Fna square—more like 30 minutes rather than the advertised 20. The path to the Riad wasn't the most pleasant, but it felt like an oasis once inside.
