Riad Khalifa

We loved everything about our stay at Riad Khalifa. It really is an oasis in the heart of the Medina. The rooms are beautiful and the bed was large and very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and it was served in the beautiful courtyard setting. The staff were all super friendly and helpful. Hassan was very welcoming and greeted us with a smile each time we arrived back at the Riad. The location is excellent (albeit a little tricky to find at first!).

This riad was great. Big rooms, beautiful building and perfect location. But what stood out above the rest was the exceptional service from the staff. Hassan in particular went far above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay, from meeting us when we first arrived to help guide us down the maze of streets to the riad, to messaging us on his day off to ensure we got our transfer and got home OK at the end of our visit, and always with a big smile. Khalil and the manager Imad were also great throughout our stay, including Khalil negotiating with and taking us to our return transfer & printing our boarding passes last minute, and Imad getting a gift for my partner when discovering it was her birthday, and being really flexible on checkout times. Thank you to the whole team, you really added to our visit.

We had an excellent time at Riad Khalifa. The staff was amazing, kind, very welcoming and they really looked after us. They made us feel like family. Imad, the manager gave us many tips and was very friendly and easy to talk to. The room was very spacious with traditional furniture adding to the overall experience of Marrakech. The Riad is very beautiful , quiet and within 5 mins walk from the market through a few alleys. We also had a few meals at the riad which were excellent and they also had very good breakfast. We were able to book transport through them and they were able to take us from and to the drop off point so we don't get lost. Nothing was too much trouble for them! If we visited Marrakech again we would definitely stay there again!

The riad is beautiful and in a perfect location. It is very peaceful and cozy and the roof terrace gives best view for sunsets. The breakfast was very delicious. The staff is exceptional!!! Hassan took good care of us, he is simply the best! We also had a chance to meet Aimad, the manager of the riad who passed his great knowledge to us about Morocco, very nice chats and also thanks to Ahmed for his hospitality. I would recommend this riad to anyone!!! 😊

This place is mindblowing! Imagine this: You're squeezing through the crowd of the old medina's bazaar in Marrakech, with people, motorcycles, tourists, traders, donkeys, noise, music, shouting, and smells. Suddenly, you turn into a seemingly suspicious, empty alley and for a few minutes, you walk through a labyrinth of dark corners. You reach ornately decorated doors and a corridor with a carpet and paintings on the walls, leading you to a courtyard with a fountain and a well (this is how old riads, or traditional homes in this region, are designed to cool the entire living space). You're in silence - you only hear the fountain. Then, you enter an apartment that Gertrude Bell and Lawrence of Arabia wouldn't be ashamed of. Silence, peace, and brilliant service. And when you want to return to the hustle and bustle of the medina and explore the city - you just step out and there you are.
