Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Booking experience with Lara and the communications/emails were fantastic.
We were met at the airport and taken to the Riad, The Riad was perfect location for what we wanted, right in the Soukes/Madina.

Check in was fine, the usual mint tea and biscuits.As travelling with my 18yr old daughter I pre booked a suite at 105euro per night , the biggest room they offered ( 2 beds in a large suite ) to give both privacy, Now DO NOT spend extra on an upgrade as they DO NOT have suites even though the claim to have, I think they just make up what the customer request, they put us in a double room with 1 x double bed, after a very polite request to the management and we explained we booked a suite, they suggested by the time we got back from our night out all will be sorted…. Oh no, they had just plonked a single bed 18” from the double bed.
We spoke to other guests and peered in their rooms and oh yes not much difference in size and some were at 70euro per night.
So book the cheapest and it’s pot luck what you get.
After a chat we decided to just put up and shut up for the sake of 4 nights.

First breakfast next morning was a disaster, we were given tea, 4 cold pancakes with preserve and offered a plain omelette if required , this was our only breakfast here, now I have stayed in many Riads in Marrakesh over the years and the breakfasts have ALWAYS been a lavish style buffet type breakfast, this wasn’t worth the money we were charged, we got far far better the next 3 mornings at a fraction of the cost.
I just felt this establishment were only concerned about money as they increase the charge of everything so my advice is book your own taxis/excursions, meals outside of the riad.

This Riad is very noisy so if you want a quiet nights sleep without motorbikes, doors banging etc then don’t book here.

The water was hot but very slow and each time stopped mid shower so bit of an inconvenience.

On a positive…
Location great 👍
Riad clean & tidy 👍
2 staff members we met 👍👍

Our first time in Morocco, and we couldn’t have found a better placed to stay.

Good early communication from the owner with advice and potential trips. Booked airport shuttle through the Riad also.

Room was full of character with many nice touches in the decor (see photos)

There are plenty of places to relax around the Riad, particularly the roof garden which has amazing views across the city, and further to the Atlas Mountains.

We booked a guide on the first morning (again through the Riad) which really helped us see the city in context, and took us to places we would never have found on our own.

We took excursions to OurikaValley which included waterfall hike, a real Berber market, and a fabulous lunch.

We also took a camel ride in the Agafay Desert, which was superb (again, booked through the Riad)

The staff couldn’t have been more helpful.

Location was a short walk to the Jemma al Fna, and to many attractions.

We would come back anytime….

After booking this riad over 2 years ago we finally got here in the end. The staff are really friendly and helpful and make you feel very welcome.

The riad is very instagrammable and pretty.
There are tortoises here around the pool area which was lovely to see :)

The rooms are authentic and colourful.
The shower is based in the bedroom with a big wall inbetween. The shower worked well and nice temperature.

When we arrived there was a candle lit in the room with a wax melt which smelt lovely and was a nice little touch :)

Really recommend staying here when in Marrakech! Based in the heart of the medina, it's an excellent location.

We stayed in this beautiful Riad for three nights and had a phantastic time. The staff is extraordinarily friendly and very kind and helpful with all concerns you could possibly have. We were welcomed with minth tea and cookies, were given some explanations for the city incl. a helpful map and were shown our lovely room. The Riad is beautifully decorated, the traditional style seems to be fallen out of an oriental dream. The rooms are put together with a lot of love for details, are very clean and roomy. Once we arrived in front of the historical town wall, we were picked up by a friendly guy who showed us the way to the Riad (you can't drive there with a car as it is in the medina). This place is perfectly located near all the beautiful sights and you can walk everywhere. Breakfast was included in the price and abolutely tasty - freshly baked cake, pancakes, traditionally baked bread, fresh yoghurt with honey, fresh fruit etc. All in all that was a phantastic stay, we highly recommend this place.

It has been a life long dream to visit Marakesh and stay in a colourful beautiful Riad and this was it. I can mot express how warm, beautiful, friendly and welcoming this place is. Yan, Cedric, Hamza and the amazing staff including Rashida 'the queen of the kitchen', Ibriham our kind hearted porter and Abdil hadi our wonderful guide. They made our stay magical, fun and beautifully humane. The riad is an artistic treat and glorious to stay in. I can not recommend the Chofra enough.
If you go because of this review, say hello from me.

El sueño de mi vida era visitar Marakesh y alojarme en un hermoso y colorido Riad, y éste lo fue. No puedo expresar lo cálido, hermoso, amable y acogedor que es este lugar. Yan, Cedric, Hamza y el increíble personal, incluyendo a Rashida "la reina de la cocina", Ibriham, nuestro amable portero, y Abdil hadi, nuestro maravilloso guía. Hicieron que nuestra estancia fuera mágica, divertida y maravillosamente humana. El riad es una delicia artística y una estancia gloriosa. No puedo recomendar la Chofra lo suficiente. Si vas por esta reseña, saluda de mi parte.

Riad Chorfa is exceptional, not only because of its great location in the medina, or its beautiful bedrooms, relaxing courtyard, and spacious roof terrace, but because of the people. Special thanks to Hamid, Hamza, Khalid, and the amazing on-site chef, Rachida, who together made our stay in the wonderful city of Marrakesh truly magical. We can't wait to go back.

The family-like atmosphere of Chorfa provides a calm oasis within the storm of Marrakech. Beautiful, exotic, warm and welcoming. They helped us to navigate this interesting and vibrant city like a native.

Spent a week at this beautiful Riad in July 2022 with sister and adult daughter. Our rooms were clean and very comfortable, our room had a hairdryer with diffuser, worth 5 stars just for that! Can’t praise the staff enough, they were welcoming, friendly, helpful and fun! We had a lovely breakfast each day, snacks and dinner were also served as requested! Abdu and Hamza were full of advice on where to eat and shop and booked a couple of day trips for us. Also has a chilled rooftop terrace for pre dinner drinks and a cool pool to dip into after a busy day. We will definitely be back to Marrakesh and wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else!

Hello, Is there a Spa to have a traditional hamman massage in the Riad Chorfa ?
Answer from Kat Bergin
Nazare, Portugal1 contribution
There are massages at this riad, however we we're told that they own a different riad where they do hammam massages! So maybe inquire when you there.

It’s very easy and convenient. We simply made a connection with Riad by an email, driver and car were waiting for us at the airport.
