A little spot of tranquility
A great little Riad - only 4 bedrooms, in the oldest part of the Medina - be prepared for narrow streets. The Riad was super quiet, yet really convenient for all the sites. The staff were super helpful - especially Hassan and Adil. They really made our stay a success

Great stay at the Riad Dar Zaman
We had a lovely experience at the Riad Dar Zaman. We felt very welcomed by the super trio: Peter, Hassan and Adeen. They would go far and beyond to accommodate and make our stay was stress free. The breakfast was delicious with a lovely selection of fresh produce. It has been an absolute pleasure to stay in this petit paradise in the heart of Marrakesh. We highly recommend this jewel!

In the Medina so get the authentic experience!
This Riad is approached through narrow twisting alleys past broken buildings, buildings being mended and appears unpromising at first. Once inside this is a haven of peace and as Yasmine told us on arrival "this is your home for the next few days so you are now part of the family". Yasmine and Hassan who cover nights and days respectively are so very helpful, kind and polite. They provide yards of information and as we were first timers in Marrakech they gave us so many survival tips as well as information, directions and advice on the best places to visit and eat in 3 days. We also met Peter who is the English owner but who now lives offsite. Again he was generous and helpful and made us feel really welcome. The room was unique in our experience and appeared to be consistent with the north African styles which we experienced but very comfortable and compact. Breakfast was superb and we took dinner on the first evening which again was delightful. We had our own key to come and go and there was always a refreshing drink of mint tea on arrival from a busy day walking round Marrakech.

Wonderful! The perfect place to stay.
We can't recommend this enough, the riad is beautiful, the bedrooms are lovely and the breakfast is delicious but none of this compares to the wonderful hospitality afforded to us by Hassan and his colleagues. He met us on arrival, provided us with a brilliant welcome to Marakech. including some great reccomendations for food. Overall all the staff were so kind and helpful that we felt like royalty for a weekend.

A hidden paradise in the Medina
My partner and I stayed for one week in Dar Zaman at the end of October. This charming, small riad is the perfect respite from the hustle and bustle of the Marrakech souks. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel part of the Dar Zaman family, by Peter, Hassan, Yassine & Karima. Their service & attention is second to none - you would not find better service at any hotel/guesthouse. I cannot recommend Dar Zaman enough. Hassan & Yassine - the day & night managers of the Riad, are so personable and show genuine care and attention to their guests. They helped arrange our day trips out of Marrakech, and helped with reservations at restaurants & hammam/spas with no trouble at all. I would recommend anyone who stays at Dar Zaman to enjoy dinner there, at least once - their Chicken Tagine is the best we tasted in Marrakech. I am counting down the days until we return to this paradise!

A hidden gem in a local area
We wanted to stay in a riad to get a more authentic experience and it didn't disappoint one bit. The riad was lovely and what made the whole trip even better was the staff who work there. They got the balance spot on between being there to help and also giving us our own space. Having fresh tea made for us every evening and listening to stories of our experiences that day was just brilliant. Local knowledge was amazing. I would find it hard for anyone to say they didn't enjoy there stay and before booking be clear that this riad isn't in the shiny part of the city. It's in a local neighbourhood that isn't polished up for tourists. We felt completely safe at all times and there is always someone on duty in the riad. If you want to be in a really local area, within 5 mins the souks, then this place is for you. It is a slightly longer walk into the main square but we couldn't get enough of the walk through the bustling alleyways with all the sights and smells.

Amazing, Attentive, Superb Staff & Accomidation!
I requested a pick up from the airport since it was my first time there and I was alone. From the airport driver to the staff, to the stay at the Riad, driver of the tour, the guide at the Atlas Mountains and owner they were all simply "AMAZING". Hassan was beyond helpful and complete attentive to my needs and wants during this trip; Abdul (driver to my tour) simply sweet and always with a smile on his face; Mohamed Ali was supremely knowledgeable, attentive and always made sure to check up on you during the hike about the Atlas Mountains and surrounding area. Can't say anything else but to give them the best and honest review! I would definitely return!

Great Staff!
Dar Zaman is a must stay for Marrakech. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The breakfast is very nice quality and filling. The location is in a quiet area within easy walking distance to many places. The best part of Dar Zaman is the staff! Hassan and Yassin are the best! The make you feel at home. They have a good balance of giving you plenty of attention and giving you your space and privacy. They sit down with each guest and give yo very detailed directions to places to insure you dont get lost and have to ask for directions and dealing with constant touts. They are incredible and really contributed to our whole impression of Marrakech!

Hassan, Yassin and Sakina make Dar Zaman special!
Amazing staff, Hassan, Yassin and Sakina all made our stay the best it could possibly be. The raid was a great chilled and relaxing place to retreat to after time in the hustle and bustle of the old walled city. Rooms were comfortable and cool, (A/C). After luggage was lost by the airline and arriving with nothing we had help above and beyond expectations in dealing with that. Nothing was a problem for the staff, especially Hassan. Would highly recommend eating in at the raid at least one night, we did 3. We found Hassan to be wealth of knowledge and so keen to share information. Hassan really looked after us and we were very thankful for his gentle, kindness. There was also great understanding for the culture shock that can be experienced by guests. I can not recommend highly enough Riad Dar Zaman, it's the staff which makes it such a special, welcoming and inclusive place to stay. The best tours we booked were through the Riad with their local knowledge. Great location and would stay no where else on our return to Marrakech.
