Lock in a great price for Riad Chorfa – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

The staff were very helpful in arranging our transfers and any other needs and the property was nicely presented with true Moroccan charm. Our room (for 3) was quite spacious with a double and a single bed, with comfortable and clean bedding and linen. We really appreciated the onsite restaurant after arriving late evening after a 10hr drive from the desert. The riad was well located for access to shopping and other eating venues if you needed them. It would have been nice to stay longer and make some use of the fabulous rooftop spaces.

Sharon, Australia

The Riad is incredibly beautiful. The staff are friendly and helpful. The tortoises and resident cat. The breakfast.

Traceysharonc, South Africa

Friendly, helpful staff who greeted me with mint tea and cakes. Right in the heart of the Medina with a great roof top view.

Derek, United Kingdom

Amazing hotel, one of the best small hotels I've ever stayed in. Don't leave Marrakech without a might here. 10/10.

David, Spain

Great rooftop. Made me feel like staying the sofa on the rooftop all day long without going to any sightseeing...

Hanako, Japan

Nice location, good rooftop, decent food and picturesque yard with turtles. Staff was welcoming and nice, we ordered our transfer from the train station and dinner in advance, and everything was ready. We also ordered through riad one day trip to Ouarzazate.

Sergii, Denmark

Very beautiful and comfy house, with very friendly staff. A real authentic experience.

Sara, Malta

The terrace is beautiful and the view is amazing. Location is also very good, five minutes away from the square Jemaa el-Fnaa.

Iuliana, Romania

Superb service from staff!!!!! They are warm and amiable. They even provided insights about Marrakech. They did pretty well in conversing in English. The place is cozy and artsy, not to mention the breezy rooftop to which you can partly view the city of Marrakech. Staying in riad is one good way to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Morocco.

Cris, Ireland

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Also beautiful main house Riad. Cntral location, close to Jamaa el Fna and the main Mosque

What Travelers Love About This Location

“Had a lovely stay. Loved the roof top terrace. Really great place close to everything. Friendly staff, too.”

Stefanie

Germany

“My stay at Riad Chorfa was perfect. The location was absolutely ideal - right in the middle of the medina and walking distance from all souks and attractions. The Riad is beautiful! The central courtyard and rooms are spotlessly clean, comfortable and wonderfully decorated in traditional Moroccan style with modern accents. Special mention to the staff; were incredibly helpful, warm, friendly and always eager to please. Excellent value for money! I'd love to come back!”

“Very comfortable stay in a great location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Suite
- • Stayed 1 night
눉Our room was quite unique with a mezzanine bathroom, however this was slightly challenging while trying to navigate the stairs to the toilet in the middle of the night without disturbing others in the room - lack of privacy could also be a problem. The location next to the restaurant space may also be a bit noisy, but for our short stay this was not a problem.
눇The staff were very helpful in arranging our transfers and any other needs and the property was nicely presented with true Moroccan charm. Our room (for 3) was quite spacious with a double and a single bed, with comfortable and clean bedding and linen. We really appreciated the onsite restaurant after arriving late evening after a 10hr drive from the desert.

눉Our room was super weird: with a toilet sink and shower just on top of the bed, without any doors. So I don't think someone would like to poop in front of each other even if they're a couple.
눇Nice location, good rooftop, decent food and picturesque yard with turtles. Staff was welcoming and nice, we ordered our transfer from the train station and dinner in advance, and everything was ready. We also ordered through riad one day trip to Ouarzazate.

눉The room was not so clean and what's more, there was a nail poking out from the bed and my daughter scratched her leg. This time, it was lucky that she only had scratch but the nail was so sharp and long and she may had her leg pierced. The nail was covered with bed sheet and couldn't realize till you've got hurt.

“An average experience!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Suite
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉We were three persons and we booked a suite. The photos on booking for the suite suggested that there are two separate rooms. Actually, it was one small room with one single bed and one double bed. Moreover, the bathroom does not have a door. The room was at the last floor and it was noisy as it was near the terrace. The wifi connection was poor. Also important, they don't have an iron there.
눇The terrace is beautiful and the view is amazing. Location is also very good, five minutes away from the square Jemaa el-Fnaa.

눉The variation in rooms and poor breakfast by Moroccan riad standards. We had 2 rooms that were noisy as they backed on to a very noisy courtyard where guests woke at 07:00 and talked loudly over a very ordinary breakfast. We came back a second night and got a nice quiet room next to the main riad.

눉Well, our room in the guest house was a little stuffy, no window, broken glass door as room door, didn't feel very private. Sink was leaking a great deal. Also, we bumped our heads multiple times when exiting the side entrance - just as a warning!! - and my friend fell into the little water bassinet in the middle of the Riad, cell phone ruined. Watch out!
눇The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Also beautiful main house Riad. Cntral location, close to Jamaa el Fna and the main Mosque
