This is a rather large riad about 5 mins walk from the main square with a central courtyard where people gather and where breakfast is served. It's pleasant enough, but they don't go the extra mile as do others I stayed in Marrakech and elsewhere in Morocco. The room was a good size, although on the ground floor with no window. The breakfast was ordinary at best. I found the attitude here indifferent and not completely guest focused. I wouldn't say the experience was bad but it wasn't great either, 6 or 7 out of 10. There are many better choices.

My journey in Morocco started and ended in Marrakech. I reserved Riad Chorfa for my last night to catch a flight back home to the States. Since it was in January, it was pretty chilly in the mornings and evenings. With that said, this is a Riad, so they will have heaters in each room and the common courtyard area would be quite cold. Even as it warms up in the day, these traditional homes that are now often turned to hotels and guest houses keep the cool air in. The heater in my room wasn’t effective at all. I’ve had this experience throughout my trip in Morocco but the difference was I mostly rented out an entire Riad instead of staying in one reserved room, so if one room didn’t have good heating I had other empty rooms to choose from. I didn’t have an option in this case even as staff tried to assist in increasing the temp. As far as the decor, it’s gorgeous, lots of picture worthy spots in this hotel. I had the pleasure of dining at the hotel, their food was delicious, the dining area is beautiful. Needless to say, I plopped myself right next to the fire place because I was always cold. (I do get cold easily).Staff was accommodating in holding a rug I had purchased earlier during my trip when I had first landed in Marrakech. It had been delivered to the hotel, so by the time I traveled back to Marrakech and checked in, it was there waiting for me.If you want to stay in a Riad, consider some of the nuisances that may come with these beautiful structures: depending on the weather- it might be too chilly, ensure your heater works! if it’s a Riad converted into a hotel, consider the noise level as the rooms and many times the windows are facing the indoor-ish courtyard where people may dine and congregate. If you are sharing a room with your friends, be aware that some rooms may not provide enough privacy. sometimes the bathrooms don’t have doors, my room was two levels where I walked up the bathroom which overlooked my entire room and had a window that looks out into the courtyard. this might be an awkward situation when you need a door to close, even more awkward because I feel like you can probably hear EVERYTHING, even from the courtyard.My stay was nice, the place is gorgeous, staff were helpful, but I prefer renting out an entire home via Airbnb for myself for the same price or cheaper than just having one room to myself. If hotels are your preference I would recommend this place as along as you can deal with the small nuisances.

Riad Chorfa was perfect! The entire staff was incredible and hospitable. The breakfasts were delicious as was the rest of their food! An amazing night’s sleep, and in the perfect location as well! The Riad was a short walk from Jemaa elFnaa, but not right on the main road, so it felt more inside of the Médina. The vibes were perfect if you want a fun, relaxed and authentic Moroccan vacation.

Just came home from staying 3 nights in the lovely Riad Chorfa. This place is like an Oasis of calm in the middle of crazy Marrakech! Beautiful environment, very peaceful and feels homely. The staff are absolutely fantastic, very attentive and will do anything to help. We got lost in the markets and got into trouble with a group of lads- we called the Riad and one of the staff (Simo) came and rescued us - we are very grateful for that and cannot thank him enough. Breakfast was lovely, fresh coffee and pancakes and local cakes. The place was very clean and our room was gorgeous - very traditional, lovely local shampoo and shower gels and really cosy.The only slight criticism I have is the shower in our room (room 9) does not work very well! Overall, if you are looking for a place to stay in Marrakech - this place is fantastic - 5 minutes walk to main square and the main souk. If we ever cone back to Marrakech we would definitely stay at Riad Chorfa again.Thanks again to Simo and the rest of the team for taking such good care of us.

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.
