I had booked Riad Capaldi which was advertised as a 4-star property and cost a substantial amount. My experience at the riad was terrible. The riad is in abysmal condition with torn and stained furniture in the rooms, stained linen and poor common areas as well. The riad promised breakfast but the breakfast was just toast, some bread with butter and jam and on asking you received one egg. The riad was further in an inaccessible location and difficult to reach except by foot The surroundings did not feel safe specially in the evening. I would highly recommend not reserving this property.

Comfortable riad with amazing staff
We stayed at Riad Capaldi for 3 nights in April 24. We chose it as we have stayed at the Capaldi Hotel but never before at the riad. The staff are wonderful. Nothing is ever too much whether it be advice on restaurants or how to get somewhere. The room was comfortable and clean and the breakfast and dinner we had were delicious. Watching the sun set over a fantastic glass of local Rosé was memorable.

A calm oasis where you can relax and hear birdsong in the middle of a busy city before wandering into the alleys of Marrakesh. Team helpful with any requests and recommendations and will even walk you to neighbourhood restaurants and sights.

This Riad is the best. I truly recommend staying here, and have only good things to say about it. Bader made our stay so incredibly smooth. He often walked us from our taxis to the riad, and always made sure we were safe and taken care of, even calling us one night while we were at a bar late and checking in to make sure we were okay. The room was stunning, modern but with a Marrakesh feel, and the rooftop was amazing for breakfast and hanging out. These people are the nicest and truly take care of you.

The stay at Riad Capaldi was A . It's a quiet and peaceful riad, beautifully decorated inside and very comfortable in the rooms. The Oulidia room with private terrace was amazing also. If I could give a higher rating it would go to Marouane and Bader and their wonderful housekeeping team. They all went out of their way to give us the best personalized experience. From planning out our daily itinerary, restaurant recommendations, sightseeing excursions, or just chilling in the riad, these guys and their amazing local knowledge with a personal touch was just fantastic. We definitely got the best we could out of Marrakesh thanks to the whole team at Riad Capaldi. I would definitely stay there again if we go back.

Enjoyable stay at the Riad Capaldi. All the staff (Badr, Suad, Atiqah, Marwan) were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Decently located in the Medina, but about a 20 min walk to most of the main sights. While we enjoyed our stay, the property is definitely overpriced compared to the quality. At almost $500 for 3 nights, we expected more in terms of amenities. The offerings are bare bone - not even basic bottled water is provided, let alone tea, coffee, or snacks. Considering that this is a very old property with limited amenities, it is heavily overpriced. We had several plumbing issues during our stay, and in fact could not even use our shower due to flooding. While I understand this is an old property and these issues are likely to happen, management should keep this in mind and price accordingly especially considering how basic the rooms and offerings are. Also, if you are arriving at the train station I do not recommend using the hotel transport at 200 MAD which is a complete rip off. The train station is about a 10 min drive and a local taxi costs less than 50 MAD for that same journey.

staff is nice. The room is small and without natural light. the riad does not have much privacy because each room door is made from glass and you have to put curtains to block others' view. location is not good, very deep down in the not so safe alley, far from major road, easy to get lost or get misled by teenagers trying to get money from tourists.

In a perfect location just at the edge of the souks -but well inside the medina- Capaldi is an oasis amidst a cacophony. My large room in this classic riad had its own rooftop terrace where you could in-theory sleep under the stars. Incredibly attentive staff had ideal recommendations for a first-time stay in Morocco and looked after my every need. I felt well cared for within this well-appointed architectural gem. I would stay here again.

Our stay at the Riad Capaldi was, quite simply, magnificent. Offering a perfect oasis of peace and serenity the Riad is beautifully located just a short walk and a few alleyways from the heart of the bustling Medina. It was tranquil, spotlessly clean and impeccably designed with just enough Moroccan influence combined with the sophistication of a 5-star boutique hotel. The staff were attentive to our every need and more than happy to escort us to the Medina until we found our way around ourselves. Breakfast was delicious - don't miss the natural yogurt with pomegranate and when you just need a little down time be sure to retreat to the roof terrace offering stellar views and a beautiful space for sun and relaxation. We can't wait to return!

Beautiful, quiet and safe Riad in the Medina
We loved our stay at Riad Capaldi and wish it could have been longer. The staff were so helpful, the rooms were perfect (exactly like the photos). Great location inside the Médina and close to the souks and tanneries but so nice and quiet. A little oasis. We were overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle of Marrakech so having the comfort of this Riad was perfect for us. Cooked us dinner one night, delicious!! Would 100% recommend.

Nice hotel in centre of town
A charming and very helpful and energetic manager,who bent over backwards to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The room was comfortable,but the lighting was very dim,so difficult to read in the room,there was no plug in the basin,and the room heating did not work so we had to ask for a heater which we received on the last day as someone was using it before.The shower was a dribbler,and i was looking forward to the one we have at home.I thing in fairness we had a spell of colder weather than usual.so we must make allowances.
