Next door to the main square.
Mabrouk Riad & Spa is situated just a few metres from Jamaa El Fna, the main square in Marrakech. Here you'll find snake charmers, dancers, market stalls and much more. This prominent location also means the riad is within walking distance of many of the city's top attractions.

Negative Reviews
negative:
Some rooms are a tad gloomy.
While many guests enjoy comfortable accommodations at Mabrouk Riad & Spa, some guests are disappointed to find their room a little on the gloomy side. Reports suggest that not all rooms have windows, meaning natural light is at a premium. Similarly, while stained glass windows are impressive to look at, guests report they inhibit the light in other rooms.
negative:
Minor maintenance work required.
Several guests have reported instances of minor maintenance work being required. One recurring instance appears to be loose bathroom tiles, while some guests point out certain electric sockets would benefit from being replaced.
negative:
Breakfast can become repetitive.
Many guests enjoy the traditional Moroccan breakfast on offer, which features coffee, orange juice, pancakes, croissants and bread. However, those guests staying at the riad for an extended period report that breakfast can become repetitive.
