I cannot emphasize enough that this is a special place- everything from the aesthetic to the food was purely delightful, and most importantly the staff tied it altogether with their fruitful character & hospitality; our experience was simply unparalleled. Touchez, Riad Chorfa- you gave us so much more than we bargained for, with eternal friendship as the cherry on top. (BIG UPS to Hamid & Aimad for being rock solid all around!). Endless thanks and gratitude ~
United States of AmericaThe decoration! Good or bad (depends on your taste) the hotel is inside the Medina so it’s crowded. The first impression is :o but after getting used to it and learning about its history is pretty interesting.
ColombiaAmazing! So beautiful, friendly staff, great location. 10/10 would stay again!
United States of AmericaBeautiful old riad right in the heart of medina Marrakech. Steps away from spectacular shopping and sight seeing. The courtyard is a peaceful relaxing oasis to rest up during the heat of the day. Room is beautiful and clean. Gorgeous lodgings and very friendly accommodating staff.
United States of AmericaLocation, terrace had a lovely view, service was the best we've had in our trips. The staff went above and beyond our needs and made our stay exceptional. We will definitely stay here again.
United States of AmericaMost of the staff was very friendly & helpful... it is a noisy, friendly Riad during the day. Quiet at night & I had a cozy room.
United States of AmericaI felt as if I were the Queen of Marrakesh in Riad Chorfa. Houssen and all the staff members treated us like family and attended to us as royalty. My friend's luggage got lost on our flight into Marrakesh and we drove Houssen crazy calling the airport looking for it and not one moment we felt a bit of recitation/unwilling from him to do so, always so helpful and pleasant, everyone there was. The Riad itself is cozy and going with a group of friends I can see myself not leaving the Riad and just hanging out in the many sofas, terraces they have throughout the property, and we did so a few night for the sunset. The Riad is well located in the medina, not to far in from where the car/taxi can drop you off. I will defiantly make my way back to Morocco and you will find me at Riad Chorfa again.
United States of AmericaWonderful interior, great location. My kids loved it and wanted to stay longer. Outstanding terrace. Really a special one of a kind place.
United States of AmericaThe property is located in old town Marrakech and is the perfect location for exploring Marrakech, Hamza and the Guys working at the Riad couldn’t have been nicer and more helpful. Absolute Gem!
United Arab EmiratesThe design of the hotel is brilliant! There are so many corners for photos. All staff were very nice and helpful. I love that they welcomed us with their Moroccan tea.

Host Info
Plusieurs siècles racontent les stratifications de l'histoire de ce petit palais, raffinement de l'architecture mauresque aux élégantes proportions, fleuron des beaux riads de Marrakech. En 2000 il est habillement restauré par son propriétaire, architecte français, pour répondre à la nouvelle fonction d'une maison d'hôte, qui parle autant au coeur qu'aux yeux et qui vous enveloppe dans la lumière, l'harmonie, la légèreté de l'être, le calme et la tendresse, en plein coeur de l'effervescence des souks. 14 chambres et suites (dont une douirya) déclienent taille, couleurs et volume avec imagination. Riad Chorfa oeut accueillir des groupes, organiser des séminaires et des fêtes avec musiciens et danseuses. C'est aussi une table pour vous concocter couscous tajines et pastillas de première fraicheur. Rias chorfa, plaisir d'un lieu pour un moment précieux, calme en surface, frémissant à l'intérieur, avant qu'il ne s'évapore, sans jamais l'oublier.
Architecte de métier, j'ai rénové ce riad avec passion tout en respectant le style marocain.
Le Quartier mouassine est un quartier noble, il est y avait des chorfa, c'est à dire des familles nobles qui y vivaient d'ou le nom de notre rue, derb Chorfa elkebir et riad chorfa!
