Beautiful and well-run riad. I was a woman traveling alone and all the staff was incredibly helpful in terms of sightseeing, lunch/dinner, and hammam recommendations, booking a desert excursion, and airport transport. It is also very centrally located. Highly recommended!

This is a very well run Riad. We were met at the airport and escorted to our Riad. There are no cars in the Medina and the place would be impossible to find on foot so do arrange a greeter. Our house guy, Mohammed, was great, He cooked dinner when we arrived at night. And even though his English was... More

We have just returned from a visit to the Riad Magellan in Marrakech, both of which were enchanting. Had a superb typically Moroccan meal on the first night, Moroccan salads, chicken tangine and a delicious fruit salad. We ordered a birthday cake this too was divine. Adil and Mohammed were more than happy to serve us with the champagne we... More

While in Marrakesh we stayed in 2 different Riad's. Magellan was certainly our top pick - location is KEY as you are in the heart of the medina. As a warning it would be difficult to find this location on your own - the Riad was easily able to arrange a pick-up for us and someone guided us through the... More

This Riad in Marrakesh is a haven from the craziness of the markets. It is ver peaceful, well decorated, and clean. The staff are extremely welcoming and helped us with everything we needed to organize. They recommended hammams, restaurants, and transportation. We had an excellent meal at the Riad the first night by the fire. We loved our stay!

Our first stop in Morocco was Riad Magellan in Marrakech and from the first pick up at the airport, the walk through the narrow streets, the first cup of mint tea, the lovely room, through to the yummy food, we felt most warmly welcome in this beautiful country, thanks to Riad Magellan. Not to mention their flexibility and will to... More

A four-night stay at Riad Magellan was barely enough to soothe the souk-jangled nerves and the tired body. Simply delightful both to the eye and to the mind; discrete but welcoming and personalized service, helpful suggestions on where else to visit in Morocco and the telephone or email to aid in booking those other places, delicious breakfasts and dinner if...

We had a great three nights here - everyone was very helpful, the room was great and it was great value. Would definitely recommend.

This was our second stay at Riad Magellan--had to stay a few days at the beginning of our trip at Riad Majala, Phillippe, the owner's new property was just as wonderful a stay (even more because they have the most beautiful rose shampoo in their bathrooms ;) but either property is warm, inviting, has an expert and kind staff there...
