Frommer's "Located on a quiet street minutes away from Guéliz's many restaurants and shops, this pleasant hotel has a modern feel even though the design is essentially traditional." Full review
Fodor's "A modern three-star hotel... popular with tour operators and large groups so is frequently booked up." Full review
i
Avoid rooms at the front as the street is noisy and windows are small.
Lonely Planet "In a quiet Guéliz location near boutiques, spas and restaurants, the Caspien is cosy and personable." Full review

For maximum quiet, choose upper-floor rooms overlooking the pool, well above the restaurant and piano bar.

Insight Guides "This hip boutique riad evokes all the splendour of traditional Moroccan design and architecture, but with perfectly judged modern twists."
Lonely Planet "Like a kaftan-clad supermodel on a Vespa, the 72 defines jet-set chic." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This stylish Italianowned riad is very Milan-meets-Marrakech. The house is traditional but the black-and-white colour scheme and sleek furniture all imported."
Rough Guide "This Italian-owned riad is sleek and stylish, with sparse but very tasteful modern decor, palms and banana trees in the courtyard and its own hammam."
Frommer's "Intimate and exclusive with just three rooms and one suite, this slinky Italian-run riad is a temple to minimalist chic." Full review
Afar Magazine "Riad 72 is laid out in traditional riad style, with a big rectangular central courtyard (complete with banana trees), flanked by rooms on each side."
The Telegraph9.0

Mr & Mrs Smith "Wrapped around a central courtyard brimming with banana trees, Riad 72 hotel is an art-school version of a traditional Moroccan house in Marrakech's medina district." Full review
Independent "Milan meets Marrakesh in the 13 rooms and sublime roof terrace...riad features Italian decorative touches to go with its plush, soft Moroccan fabrics and, in some rooms, original cedar wood ceilings."

Dinner is served in the gorgeous courtyard patio (book ahead).
Michelin Guide "We liked it well enough when it was just a single small four-bedroom house, but 72 Riad Living is proof that riad hospitality can scale up without losing its essential charm" Full review
