Dar Mo'Da

AMAZING. It is very rare I leave reviews, unless I feel they are truly deserved and… wow! We could not fault our stay! Dar Mo’da is the most beautiful, calming riad in the perfect location. The interior is stunning and the whole place is immaculate. Mounaim was wonderful and looked after us so well - nothing was too much trouble and he gave us great recommendations along with also booking taxis, restaurants and day-time activities. The whole team were so attentive, kind and made us both feel so at home. This was our first time in Marrakech and we will most definitely be back. And there is nowhere else we will stay! We look forward to visiting again in the near future. Thank you for a wonderful break. Rebecca & Tom x

Everything was perfect: location, service, breakfast, interior design. Rooftop terrace was amazing, with unforgettable sunsets. Mounaim is always there providing valuable advice on restaurants, attractions, helping with reservations. A big “thank you” to the him and his kind staff. Hope we will be back someday!

So many positive things to say about this brilliant place. The accommodation is absolutely gorgeous and we had a lovely room on the roof terrace that made it feel like we were in our own private hotel. Every morning we stepped out on to the terrace and were served a delicious continental breakfast with some local delicacies as well. But what really makes this place so special are the small team of caring staff at Dar Mo'da that go out of their way every day to make you feel special and genuinely wish to help in any way they can. Mounaim the manager was super helpful and booked dinners and attractions for us and gave us some great tips during our 4 day stay. If you are visiting Marrakech then this place should be top of your list. You won't regret it. We certainly will be back for another Moroccan adventure!!

Élégant space with a gracious, dedicated staff makes for a thoroughly relaxing stay in the midst of the action. Delicious breakfasts and gorgeous sunsets from the spacious yet intimate roof terraces. Be sure to arrange in advance lunch or dinner prepared just for you - better than any restaurant. Cleanliness, quality and quiet are priorities for us. This experience was exactly what we needed. Thank you to Mounaim and the wonderful Dar Mo’da team.

A fantastic small hotel, ideally placed in the heart of the Medina, very close to the Secret Garden. The Dar is beautifully furnished throughout in a light, calming palette. Our room was luxurious and comfortable with a lovely seating area and everything you could want for a comfortable stay. The rooftop terrace was particularly lovely for breakfast and a late evening drink. The customer service was incredible from all the staff - someone was always on hand to bring you a mint tea or direct you personally through the souks. Our host Mounaim could not have been more helpful with his recommendations of places to visit and longer trips, taking away the stress of having to research and organise ourselves. His suggested restaurants were always amazing and he recommended some great quality carpet shops as well which we would never have found on our own. You can even have a traditional hammam at the Dar which we enjoyed very much. All in all one of the best holidays we’ve had, we will be recommending this Dar to everyone we know.

My friend Claire and I stayed at Dar Mo'da for 5 days in October 2023. It was our first time to Marrakesh and we chose the riad based on reviews online. From the first moment we arrived, it didn't disappoint! Mounaim and his team were exemplary - they couldn't have been more welcoming, helpful or made us feel more special throughout our stay! Although you're in the heart of the medina, the riad is quiet and relaxing and tastefully furnished throughout in the local style. We arranged a pick up from the airport vianthe riad, and were escorted on foot to the property when the taxi couldn't go any further. We were met by Mounaim, a most charming and helpful man, and welcomed with mint tea and local delicacies. We had a beautiful room on the top floor. We ate a delicious breakfast on the top terrace cooked to our request each morning - cereal, yoghurt, pastries, juice, coffee and omelettes. Mounaim went above and beyond to ensure we made the most of our stay. He provided us with a map, water and recommendations on where to go (not just the usual tourist spots) and where to eat. He also gave us his number in case we became lost in the medina. He recommended restaurants each evening, made the reservations and arranged for us to be guided there and back. He is an absolute credit to the riad! On the Saturday night, we were invited to have drinks with the Australian owner, David and his friend Riccardo, who were visiting from Milan. David in particular was very welcoming and hospitable - a lovely man who has some fascinating stories to share. Also we were two women alone, we never felt unsafe or vulnerable whilst walking everywhere in the city, and it was a great opportunity to practise our french. On the last night we were provided with drinks and nibbles in our room and a 'cadeau' of spices from the markets. Thank you to Mounaim and team, to David and Riccardo for the amazing time we had in Marrakesh. I would recommend Dar Mo'da every time. A truly memorable trip and we will return!
