Beautiful riad! Gorgeous architecture and very friendly staff! We loved this riad!

Camille United States of America

I loved everything about this place! The staff was super friendly and helpful, the facilities were breathtakingly beautiful, wifi was perfect, and the location was right in the middle of the old city, just a short walk to the big square. I really cannot say enough about Simo and the staff here. They were very accommodating and even gave me a multiple rides to locations nearby. Thank you so much!

Jordan United States of America

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 ~

Nicholas United States of America

The 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.

Michelle Colombia

Amazing! So beautiful, friendly staff, great location. 10/10 would stay again!

Karli United States of America

Beautiful 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.

Ronald United States of America

Location, 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.

Krystal United States of America

Most of the staff was very friendly & helpful... it is a noisy, friendly Riad during the day. Quiet at night & I had a cozy room.

Syd United States of America

I 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.

Luziele United States of America

Wonderful interior, great location. My kids loved it and wanted to stay longer. Outstanding terrace. Really a special one of a kind place.
