La Claire Fontaine

Staying at La Claire Fontaine during Eid al-Adha was a fantastic experience, especially with most places closed. The Riad's design is a perfect blend of modern comfort and exotic Moroccan charm, noticeable in every corner, piece of furniture, and the overall ambiance. Our room was beautiful, with a very comfortable bed and pillows. The bathroom was spacious, and the furniture and decorations were truly exquisite. The toiletries provided were also of very good quality. The WiFi quality was good through out the Riad. The patio was refreshing and charming, providing a lovely spot to enjoy a drink or the delicious breakfast served each morning. As an espresso fan, I was delighted with the in-room espresso maker and the quality of espresso prepared for us during breakfast. The rooftop terrace was another highlight, offering a relaxing space between walks and a delightful dinner prepared especially for us by the Riad team. Our stay at La Claire Fontaine was memorable not just for the comfort and atmosphere, but because we felt genuinely at home. Special thanks to Smail, Soulaimane, and Younes for their exceptional care and hospitality. You made our stay unforgettable! 2 important tips: - Ignore people on the streets who claim your Google Maps is wrong, or the street is closed, and offer to guide you another way or show you an exhibition. These individuals will ask for money, and the streets are not actually closed, nor are there exhibitions—just shops. Engaging with them will waste your time and cause frustration. - When you go back to the airport, plan for three hours, especially if you fly Ryanair. They stamp boarding passes at the check-in desks, even if you only have carry-on luggage. There are huge queues at the check-in desks (Ryanair staff can be quite rude and slow, and regardless of your luggage size, they might force you to pay an extra fee; we witnessed many disputes and scandals during our 1.5-hour wait in this queue) and at passport control you need about an hour.

I write this review on my last night of 3. Have had the best stay here as a solo woman. The staff have been so extremely kind and attentive. I ate my dinners here as did not wish to venture out alone. The food has been absolutely incredible, so fresh & tasty. The chef is amazing. Breakfast is also fantastic. I found the location easy once I had my map & directions. My room was so clean and well thought out, big towels, heated rack, lovely sheets & pillows. I also had an in house massage in my room that was 5 star. I would definitely come back here again and just for comparison i have stayed at El Fenn etc as have been to Marrakech several times

Perfect location. Beautifully decorated in the public areas and the room we were in. Breakfast is a nice mix of traditional Moroccan and European catering for my gluten-free requirements. The cleanliness was faultless. The highlight however is the attention to detail by every member of staff. They gave us 5 star treatment.

The moment you step in to the riad you will be greeted with warm and hospitable atmosphere. You would feel right at home. Naima is a great host, making sure your stay is well taken care of. Yousef is so attentive to your needs. We stayed here after a 14-day travel across Morocco and it was the best choice. The property is clean and well maintained. Located within walking distance to the medina and the different sites of interest in Marrakesh. Gives you sense of comfort & security once behind the doors of this riad. Would love to stay longer in this place next time we visit Marrakesh. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL STAY!
