리야드 숭타니(Riad Sougtani)

Wonderful experience. The hotel and its garden are beautiful. Good food and great hosts. The rooms are nice, weigh good beds and pillows. Good for large groups. Five rooms perfect to accommodate our family of 11. Highly recommended

Fantastic family run Riad, beautiful, calm and the staff were outstanding, so friendly and hospitable, amazing food, they catered very well with 3 out of 4 of us being vegetarians. Such a welcome relaxing break from Marrakech and we definitely recharged our batteries, highly recommended and worth the short trip (30 mins) out of town and into the middle of the real Marrakech. We also got a tour round and saw the vegetable garden and met the donkeys, horses, dogs and cats. Such an oasis of calm in the middle of the desert with a lovely garden and pool, we will return.

This place is a wonderfully restored Riad that has been in the owner's family for generations. The gardens are large and there are several roof terraces which allow you to look out over the surrounding desert land and into the distance, the Atlas Mountains. There are spectacular fortress-type constructions on either side of it which adds to the sense of history. We had one night there and used it as a springboard to visit the mountains the next day, but it was a memorable afternoon and evening, relaxing in the beautiful gardens which are full of citrus tress, and having a really good dinner in the small restaurant with log-fires at either end of the room.

e stayed just a single night before flying off the next morning. We arrive quite late in the evening and regardless are greeted by a group of men who await us with pot of delicious tee right in the Riads stunning garden area. After unpacking, one of the owners, Ahmed Soughani shows us around the property and invites us for a glass of wine. He tells us the family tail of the property and we are simply blown away. You literally feel like a an ancient Berber tribe leader being invited to an important political debate on the estate in 1890. The next morning we wake up fairly early. It is still dark. Breakfast is already served in the stunning dining area with fresh juice and fragrantly fresh bread variations, served with Argan oil, home made jams and more - the staff is already up, chatting to me in fluent German (my mother tongue) as well as in French, helping me to get back into it again. Shortly after, we are being assisted back to the front gate where a taxi is already awaiting us. Short but sweet! What a place- must visit when in the area!

We stayed 2 nights in this peaceful magical place! The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated, and quiet. A perfect break from Marrakech, less than an hour’s drive away. We fell for their sweet orange cat, there were maybe 4 cats we saw, 2 domesticated and one a bit wild. The meals were plentiful, in a lovely dining room with a fireplace. The history of the place is fascinating and as I understand it, the Riad is still in the family. Read about it, it’s why my husband chose it. But the true magic for me was meeting Karin (German pronunciation ka-RIN) who lives there (I believe she is one of the co-owners). I decided to treat myself to a massage, and called ahead of our initial arrival. and was told in rapid French that Karin offered shiatsu, I think I might have heard the word ‘energy work’ in there (my college French classes are long ago). Well, as soon as I walked in her studio I felt it. I have received, performed and taught various Massage and other alternative healing disciplines and probably had at least 50 people work on me over the years of various talents and temperaments and I have had the good fortune to work with 4 truly ‘shiny’ healers. Karin is one of them.

Un séjour formidable dans un cadre de rêve, avec des personnels très attentifs. Le riad Sougatni offre une expérience de vie marocaine dans un contexte de luxe . L'accueil est à la hauteur des prestations luxueuses offertes. Lieu de repos mais aussi point de départ pour explorer les environs sur les conseils avisés et avec les services proposés par le maître des lieux. Un très bon et beau moment.

Riad situé à moins de 30min de Marrakech, c’est le lieu parfait pour profiter de ses vacances. Vous serez là bas comme à la maison, le lieu est rempli d’histoire ce qui lui dit ce petit quelque chose que les autres riads ou hôtels non pas. Tout le personnel est très gentil et présents si besoin, la cuisine y est délicieuse. Le matin vous vous ferez réveiller par le chant des oiseaux, les odeurs des orangers et citronniers du jardin vous accompagnerons tout le long du séjour. Après une longue journée de visite dans la Médina on apprécie de revenir dans le calme du Riad.

Premier séjour au Maroc et certainement pas le dernier! Riad chaleureux et familial qui vous fera vous sentir comme à la maison! Personnel à l’écoute jour et nuit. Situation géographique idéale: à 20min de Marrakech (facilement accessible en taxi) et permet de profiter du calme de la campagne. L’endroit est magnifique et très bien entretenu. Les chambres sont spacieuses et on y dort très bien. Si vous souhaitez découvrir la cuisine marocaine, c’est l’endroit parfait (tajine, couscous, pâtisseries traditionnelles…). Merci à toute l’équipe du riad pour cette belle semaine! Je revendrai avec plaisir 😊

J’ai passé 7 jours avec des copines de voyage. Le cadre est magnifique avec un jardin verdoyant des transats et autres assises bien répartis, sans oublier la grande piscine. Le personnel est aux petits soins toujours à disposition pour organiser les transports et les excursions. Excellente adresse pour se détendre et se ressourcer avec accès rapide à Marrakech. Je recommande vivement.
