Nice riad located near famous site in Marrakech badii palace and royal palace. This house has been great and highly recommended.

Dar Les Cigones is simply the best place to stay in Marrakesh. The rooms are beautiful, traditional, comfortable and elegant, the courtyards are charming and the perfect retreat after a busy day. The restaurant will serve you the tastiest Moroccan food you can find, and the spa services are an absolute treat. You will never feel hurried or out of place, but always welcome, relaxed and cared for. Dar Les Cigones is the crown of Moroccan hospitality, and the jewel at its centre is without a doubt Hayat. Hayat and her team go above and beyond to make every element of your stay comfortable, pleasurable and easy. Forget the overcrowded and fake “five-star” resorts, stay at Dar Les Cigones for true comfort and a taste of the real Marrakesh.

My husband and I stayed here for 7 days. Our room was unique and comfortable and the food was excellent. This Riad is in the perfect location and is an easy walking distance to restaurants, shopping and tourist attractions. The staff was everything wonderful and helpful. I must mention Hyatt- she was phenomenal! This woman made our visit to her country that much more enjoyable! I highly recommend booking a massage and a hammam during your stay. My private hammam experience was stellar! Get the cookbook too, you'll be glad that you did! Now I do have to add that the wifi was quite sketchy at times which made checking in for our return flight back to the states impossible. But other than sketchy wifi- this place is awesome and I have been telling friends about it (we have friends leaving for a trip to marrakech in 3 weeks- I hope that they stay here).

Amazing service and ideal location for your stay in Marrakesh. Enjoy a day in the market and finish relaxing on the roof top terrace with a hookah and bottle of wine. Short taxi from the airport for 100 dirham, or choose your own adventure with a rental car and nearby parking for around 20 dirham per day. This is the place you want to stay.

This is the second time I've booked my holidays in Marrakech with Sanssouci Collection and I will definitely stay with them again. I've spent four days at Dar les Cigognes and enjoyed the most wonderful time. Being treated as a true friend every wish was made possible by Hayat and the fantastic team. From the Hammam experience and the massages to the food all was truly enjoyable, I can only recommend spending your time in Marrakech here.

Great service! The staff surely gave 5 star service. The hotel is in a good location for the market. The roof terrace was lovely, sat there having a lovely cappuccino. Only negative is the placement of our room, close to the main road and we could hear the sounds outside of horses, cars and people talking. Also room itself and bathroom slightly outdated but I guess it’s in line with the style of hotel.

Great location, right outside the Medina wall. 5 minutes walk to palaces. Clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly and helpful. Easy to get in and out.

We had a beautiful stay at the riad. Hayat have been so nice and attentive to us. We surely recommend your riad to our friends. Thank you so much.

This is a beautiful Riad with typical Morrocan interiors. By no means cheap and cheerful, it sits at the high end of the price scale. It sits inside the medina (edited to correct comment) wall, next to the Palace wall where you can see the storks nesting along the top. You should appreciate it is far enough away from the main square to avoid the noise. The staff are really friendly and attentive and go a long way to help. A potential downside is the cost of the sundries, which can be signicant. For example (Dec 2018) 2x 330ml coke Zeros cost 66 MAD (£5.28) more than double the normal price of elsewhere. The food is really good, but again quite expensive, as is the locally produced house wine 403 MAD (£32.50) To put this into perspective, since Morocco is a Muslim country, alcohol is a very heavily taxed commodity (100% for foreign alcoholic drinks, slightly less for domestic products.) Our room was spacious, well decorated and quiet (the calm is a rarity in Marrakech!) On a couple of nights it was filled with a stifling smokey odour which made it difficult to sleep well. The roof terrace is a beautiful garden in which to enjoy views across the rooftops and have a bite to eat and relax. The Riad has in-house hamman and massage services. The hamman (traditional Moroccan scrub) is not for the faint hearted as it removes a few layers of skin, but I'd recommend bearing the discomfort as the end result is worth it. The massage was a great way to release the tensions from the journey and the first few days of exploring the city. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay and cannot fault the excellent service. All of the charges are clearly stated so you can choose whether or not you want the extras. Review updated 01/01/2019

Well positioned, great service and a friendly atmosphere. great place to stay with friends. Intimate rooms are quite comfortable and the service is good. Be ready to climb stairs though. The rooftop view is up a ways, but worth it.

Beautiful boutique hotel. The staff are exceptionally kind and attentive, they really went out of their way to ensure I had a great stay. The food is suberb, and breakfast on the roof terrace is a treat. The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and traditionally charming. The location is great for exploring the Medina. What more could you ask for! Really enjoyed it.

Excellent Riad. Stayed there three days. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable and the food was good. Very convenient location too.

Very accommodating hotel, with very nice staff and a beautiful terrace.

Absolutely AMAZING! one of the most beautiful places I have stayed in the world. The staff were so so lovely to me in every way, and they made my last few days in Marrakech wonderfully relaxing after a bad couple of days at a different riad. The rooms are beautiful, and very authentically Moroccan. Thank you SO much to all of the staff that I met!!! 🙌🙌 I highly recommend the hammam there too - the most relaxed I’ve been in about a year. 11/10

This is one of the best meals we have eaten in Morocco. 7 courses all different and delicious. The rabbit parcels are to die for. The waiters are the best!

Lovely small boutique hotel. Very engaging and attentative staff. Very close to spice market, souks and the kings palace. Great for walking about and popping back. The rooms are lovely with an authentic feel to them. Old wood and Morocco colours. The entrance and courtyard with live trees is fabulous. Small rooms with couches to lounge on. A fountain in the middle with rose buds replaced every day. It has all the facilities and a fabulous menu and cookery school. It is in the old town so if that idea scares you then stay away. Everybody else will love it.

Wonderful staff, location and experience. Delicious food and treats throughout the stay. Can't recommend enough.

This is by far the best service I ever had. Hayat welcomed us to the place like no other. The staff was very nice and always had a smile on them and very helpful. The room was super clean and well decorated Moroccan style. I recommend this place a lot.

Unfortunately I have nothing positive to say about this property - I stayed there 3 nights and on my last night, the manager came into the hotel restaurant where I was eating and gave me an empty envelope and told me it was for a tip for the staff when I checked out the next day - I was then asked about it 2 more times. When I provided feedback on this that it was bad manners, pushy and made me feel uncomfortable - the manager Hayat lied about it and said I was given a survey in the envelope!! There was no survey and I was told specifically that the tip would be shared with staff and asked 2 more times had I left the tip. If you have to lie about doing it - then maybe you know it’s wrong!! Management should focus on the service from their restaurant staff instead of pushing guests to tip, because they were not worth tipping - I had to ask for ice 3 times before it came and called room service and spoke to 3 people to place my order, which no one could understand - so I had to go down to the restaurant and point on the menu what I wanted to order.
