Riad Losra

Riad Losra Overview

First Impressions

Walking through the narrow alleyways of the medina to reach Riad Losra honestly feels like you’re on a treasure hunt — and when you finally push through that heavy wooden door, you realize you’ve actually found something special. This four-star riad sits right in the heart of Marrakech’s old medina, tucked away on a quiet street that somehow manages to feel worlds away from the bustling souks just minutes from your doorstep. The traditional architecture hits you immediately, but it’s the attention to detail that really makes you pause and take it all in.

Location & Getting Around

You know what’s brilliant about this spot? You’re literally in the real heart of everything, but you’re not dealing with the chaos that comes with some of the more touristy areas. Couples especially seem to get this — they consistently rate the location around 8.8, and I can see why. The Bab Yakout area gives you that authentic medina experience without feeling like you’re constantly dodging tour groups. Plus, there’s actually private parking available, which honestly is a game-changer if you’re planning to explore beyond Marrakech (most riads make you park outside the medina and walk).

The Rooms

I’ll be straight with you — the beds here are genuinely comfortable, and that’s not something I say lightly about traditional riads. There’s something about the way they’ve balanced authentic Moroccan design with actual comfort that really works. Each room feels like its own little sanctuary, with those gorgeous tiled floors and carved wooden details you’d expect, but also proper lighting and storage space that you actually need. The bathrooms are well-thought-out too, which can be hit or miss in older riads.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast situation here is actually impressive — they’ve got continental options, but also vegetarian, vegan, halal, and gluten-free choices, which shows they really think about their guests’ needs. You can grab breakfast to go if you’re planning an early day trip, or settle in for a proper meal on what I’m guessing is a beautiful rooftop terrace (most riads in this style have them, and they’re usually the highlight). The variety means you won’t get bored if you’re staying for several days, and honestly, starting your morning with Moroccan pastries and fresh orange juice while planning your medina adventures is pretty much perfect.

Why Guests Love It

With a 9.5 rating, this place clearly gets the fundamentals right — location, comfort, and that authentic Marrakech experience that’s getting harder to find. What sets Riad Losra apart is how it manages to feel genuinely Moroccan without sacrificing the practical stuff that makes a stay actually enjoyable. You’re close enough to walk to the main squares and souks, but far enough away that you can actually get a good night’s sleep. It’s the kind of place where you can imagine spending lazy afternoons reading in a courtyard, then stepping out for dinner and being in the thick of the medina’s energy within minutes.
