Wonderful

Loved this Riad. Great location. Friendly helpful staff. Happy to let us have a later checkout. Lovely rooms, very quirky! Nice breakfast. Would definitely recommend.
Great location and very welcoming. Really helpful advice for Marrakesh. The plunge pool was so refreshing.
The bar is non-alcoholic which is not specified in the details.
My stay here was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The location is perfect close to everything but still peaceful and relaxing once you step inside. It truly feels like a hidden oasis.
I booked a suite, and it was beautifully decorated, very clean, and incredibly spacious. It felt luxurious while still being warm and authentic, and it made the whole experience even more special and comfortable.
The staff made the experience unforgettable. They go above and beyond in every possible way and are genuinely kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything you need. Their hospitality alone is a reason to come back.
The food was another highlight. The restaurant serves fresh, flavorful dishes that were consistently delicious, and the breakfasts each morning were amazing; local and authentic.
Everything about this riad made me feel comfortable, cared for, and immersed in the beauty of the experience. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting. I can’t wait to come back!
The manager (owner?) of the property really takes charge of every element, from waiting to escort us to the hotel from our arranged car service, to providing us a detailed orientation including recommendations for dining and activities, to following up on general affairs of the hotel. All the staff were super accommodating and friendly, would recommend this place to anyone visiting Marrakech.
The property was nice and the food very good. All of the staff were helpful and attentive. The manager Khamissa goes out of her way to ensure that you enjoy your stay and see the attractions near by. A very pleasant stay.

A beautiful and calm refuge in the chaotic Medina. The staff are unbelievably kind and helpful.
It was a nice property, located in a quiet area and the staff is probably the best part of this property
The facilities need some maintenence, like the furniture on the patio its looking really tired.
The entire staff at this beautiful riad was wonderful. Each went out of his way to make us feel welcome. We appreciated the assistance with airport transportation and other aspects of our visit. The food was excellent! Highly recommend!
My stay at Riad Pachavana was fantastic. The Riad is beautiful, both the rooms and the common spaces. The service was fantastic (thank you Yousef). The location is very good for getting a taxi drop off. It’s in a quiet location but still close to the bustling souks. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Family trip to Marrakech
Family trip to Marrakech. The location was nice, it's an 3 min walk off a busy street but on the quieter side of the Medina. A 15-20 min walk from the main square in one direction and a 15-20 min walk to the new town and Majorelle Gardens in the other.
The hosts were great, they arranged a taxi to pick us up at the airport and then met us in the Medina to walk us to the Riad which I'd highly recommend.
We had dinner the first night at the Riad, a good chicken tagine. After a long day of travel it was nice to not have to leave to eat.
We spent 4 nights so Breakfast everyday could have used some variety as it was repetitive.
Ashraf and Khamisa took such great care of us. The property is ideally located so we were able to walk to most landmarks. The riad went above and beyond when helping us to arrange excursions and reservations, and even helped us to haggle with a taxi driver! They were always helpful and trying to make our stay and trips around the city as easy and comfortable as possible. At one point my shower head fell off the wall and it was fixed instantly. Because of the hospitality we received we had a truly memorable time in marrakesh. The riad is home to a few rooms but not too many so we got to know the other guests which made the experience more pleasant and intimate. Highly rate this riad.
Riad Pachavana was a good distance from the airport, costing about 80D day or 120D night. Taxi will drop you at road derb lamsaubr, then its 2 minute walk down that alley and riad is on the right. Feels safe in that area at night. We had junior room on first floor and it was quite and clean. They have aircon for heat as March morning and evening are cool. We loved the big bath, as my daughter could splash in it. The outdoor pool is not heated, so no one used it. Breakfast had limited vegetarian options-bread, cheese, fruit salad, olives. sim card shop round the corner on rue gza, going right there was Good vibes coffee shop for plant based hot drinks, going further 8 mins was veg friendly resturants- Broc the Kasbah and opp is simple resturant which we loved and further 5 mins is Kui-zin buffet with veg options. Secret garden and bacha museum were 12 min walk but jemaa alfnaa is 20-25mins. Marjorelle gardens is a must see and is walkable 15mins (book few days ahead). We liked our location if you like walking and it was child friendly.
Great Hospitality! Riad arranged airport pick up(a must), because within the Medina a car can’t get everywhere but someone met us to walk us right to the front entrance. Easy. Khamissa and staff were wonderful ! Great suggestions for rooftop dinners, 2 amazing meals.. breakfast included was a great assortment of choices(omelette made to order)served on the rooftop deck.
Amazing staff, safe and quiet area, shops and dining options easily accessible, taxis easily accessible. Wonderful stay at the Pachavana. Would absolutely stay for my next trip to Marrakech.
Riad Pachavana was a mini paradise in the exotic northern Medina. The setting was spectacular, the room was spacious and atmospheric, while the staff could not have been more helpful. It’s a gem of a place.
It’s lovely riad and we enjoyed our stay very much thanks to Kameesa and her team. The room is very clean the breakfast was sufficient and the location was walkable. The hotel is located at the edge of the old Medina so it wasn’t far to walk to Jamaa al fina and was easy to get a taxi to hit the city center.
We had such a fantastic time at Riad Pachvana. The staff was phenomenal and the rooms and decor were absolutely stunning. We had full body scrubs in a heated marble room followed by massages, both were unique experiences and rivaled the best body treatments I’ve ever received. The food was incredibly delicious and prepared with great care. I wish we could have stayed longer!
Excellent and friendly staff. Very attentive and always a smile. As soon as you close the entrance door it was relaxing and tranquil in contrast to the busyness outside
Located a 15 minute short walk from the Medina which was ideal - lots of roof terrace restaurants to choose from on the way.
This Riad is beautiful and the staff extremely friendly. They are honest and well versed as far as the type of activities you want to do in Marrakesh. The AC could be set a bit lower but at 115F outside I understand it can be hard and expensive to cool the space down.
