We booked this riad on a friend's very strong recommendation, based on his experience under a previous manager. Thank goodness we did! It was our first trip to Morocco and we were not very well prepared, but the owners, Barbara and Jean-Louis, and thier manager Bouchra saved us with amazing help and advice during our five-night stay with them. Nothing... More

My husband and I spent 2 nights in the nomade suite during our honeymoon at the end of April. Tchaikana certainly lived up to our expectations. We immediately felt at ease when we arrived and were welcomed by a member of staff, we were shown to our room which was by far the most beautiful and grande room in which... More

One would never suspect that this riad exists in the hustle and bustle of the medina. The rooms were comfortable and lovely with room to sit and relax. Even nicer is the courtyard with orange trees, songbirds and comfy seating. The ambient temperature was so much cooler than the Jemaa and the souks. A friend had recommended the riad. We... More

We stayed in Riad Tchaikana for three nights after trekking in the Atlas mountains, and it was a perfect relaxing end to our holiday in Morocco. All staff were very friendly, and we ate some great food in the beautifully lit courtyard, surrounded by orange trees and chirping birds. The location (once found for the first time) is very handy,... More

I stayed with a couple of friends at the Riad Tchaikana in March. It was a lovely experience. The owner, Barbara Seine, and the rest of the staff are incredibly gracious and helpful. They took the time to walk us to Jamaa-el-Fna so we could find our way back and forth on our own through the maze of ancients alleyways... More

An oasis right in the middle of zouk's hustle and bustle, I highly recommend Dar Tchaikana to any travelers who appreciate a boutique riad with individual attention, slickly minimalist interior, and relaxed but hip atmosphere. The owners Barbara and Jean Louis took their time to ensure that we are having a great stay. Bouchra - the guardian of the riad... More

This Marrakech medina road is a lovely, relaxing place to escape the craziness of Marrakech. The owners, a French couple named Barbara and Jean Louis, are exceedingly gracious and went out of their way to deliver personal service and ensure their guests were happy and content. Jean Louis spent two hours -- unasked -- with me in the medina souks... More

While travelling, it is important for me to find a hotel which has great atmosphere and great service and this hotel has both. The Dar has a very modern feel with beautiful photographs lining the hallways, rooms with new and antique furniture, and very spacious bathrooms. The owners go to great lengths to make sure your stay is perfect. They... More

If you want to experience a beautiful riad in a great location this is it. Service is excellent - lovely Bouchra is friendly and warm. Riad owner, Barbara, is very helpful. The tangines here are the best in Morocco, so having dinner in the Riad is a must! More

We booked this place last minute for an impulsive trip to Marrakech and were absolutely wowed by the experience. We have stayed in other properties both inside and outside the medina on previous visits but there is something very special in the atmosphere at this place. Booking via email was swift and efficient and we can recommend the taxi pick... More
