“Riad El Maktoub makes a compelling case as a Marrakesh home base, largely thanks to its attentive staff, particularly Ismail, who seems to be a one-man concierge. Its location provides a quiet retreat that's still an easy walk to the bustling Jemaa el-Fnaa. For travelers seeking a personal touch without sacrificing convenience, this riad appears to strike a smart balance.”
