This is my second time staying here and we were welcomed by lovely Riham. She is so so welcoming and explained everything about the hostel so well - including a super smooth check in and lots of laughs within the first 5 min of arriving! All the other staff has been so lovely as well - which is why we’re coming back for a third time in a few days. The hostel is so beautiful and the perfect place to stay when visiting Marrakesh! It the perfect oasis for a break after being in the busy souks.
The staff at the front desk were absolutely wonderful! They were very accommodating and very kind to my 75 year mother ( who had travellers sickness and from the stress of travel from the day before) Felt so safe and secure at this hostel within the Medina, Felt like a little boutique hotel and their private rooms look absolutely gorgeous although we just got a four room dorm but was amazing being on the pool level, ground floor and easy access for my mother. The location is amazing. Super close to the centre and nice rooftop view… The staff made our stay especially good though!
Equity Point Hostel is very well located in the Medina, about a five-minute walk from Jemaa el-Fna and surrounded by sights, food spots, and small shops. The dorms are clean and relaxed, with en suite bathrooms but no bed curtains. Private rooms look comfortable, though expensive for a hostel. The space is one of its strengths: a pool for warmer months, several chill areas, a rooftop with sunbeds and views over Marrakesh, and a bar that works well for hanging out. The restaurant is convenient but not the best value. Friendly staff and an easy social atmosphere make it a good base in the city.
A beautiful property with wonderful staff, but some policies diminish the experience The hotel offers excellent value with genuinely helpful staff and spotless, well-maintained rooms in a stunning setting. However, two operational policies significantly detracted from an otherwise great stay: the bar and restaurant operate on a strict card-only basis, and coffee service before 11am is only available if you purchase the full breakfast package. These restrictions felt surprisingly inflexible for a hospitality setting and took away from what could have been a more welcoming atmosphere. Despite these frustrations, the property’s other qualities make it worth considering—just be aware of these limitations before booking.
Incredible beautiful Riad! The commons spaces are beautiful and very comfortable, beautiful pool, great architecture all around the place, 5 minutes walking to all the places… They have a nice rooftop great to watch the sunset, also a bar upstairs very chill but great to grab a beer! I was supposed to stay just 2 days and decided tho extend for another day. Highlights to Staff that was always kind. I had a small issue with the booked shuttle from the airport but they helped me and refunded so all good! The breakfast was very good too and the cat a prince 😍
