I have just returned from a long weekend spent at this wonderful riad in the vibrant city of Marrakech. Although it would have been difficult to find on our own,the mystery tour down narrow passageways held a breathtaking surprise behind the door of Riad Catalina. If you want to really experience the magic of Marrakech then stay here in this... more

The perfect decor and convenient location are only out matched by the efficient and friendly staff. This riad is easy to find from the nearest gate - Bab Laksour - as it has signs on the walls of the alleys. The roof dip pool is a blessing after a hot day in the souks. A perfect base for a trip... more

I have just returned from a great trip to Marrakech and the Riad Catalina. The Riad is a charming "little oasis" centrally located, around a 5 minute walk away from the main square.

Greeted with mint tea which relaxed... more

We had tried to reserve a 'large' room from the UK, but were told 'rooms were allocated on arrival'. We were allocated the small room, opposite Reception (see previous review), the stair case is so narrow you can barely take your suitcase up it, there is no space to even walk round the bed and the shower and washbasin tiny.... more
