Lovely Riad in central location with excellent staff.

Our stay at the Riad Sofia was delightful. The staff, Abdo and Chikhe were extremely helpful, informative and constantly good natured. From the moment everyone got there they sat visitors down, helped them download map apps so that you won’t get lost, what to look out for, what to pay and even where to get our wine. The Riad itself was very central, extremely pretty and very peaceful with a rooftop terrace where we could drink our wine and relax. Overall our experience there was wonderful and l found the Moroccan people to be extremely humorous, friendly and welcoming. We thoroughly recommend Morocco and this was a great place to stay.

Precioso Riad

La amabilidad del personal, el detalle a la atención al cliente. Tuvieron el gesto de ir a por un medicamento a una farmacia cuando me encontraba mal y hicieron de todo y más para que estuviéramos a gusto.

Por decir algo, quizás a la habitación le falta un poco de luz, pero es la zona donde están ubicados, el patio es excepcional.

Estancia agradable, volvería a repetir

Un lugar céntrico próximo al entramado central de la ciudad, atención inmejorable por parte del personal. muy amables y serviciales. Impone un poco al principio el callejón donde se haya ubicado. Nada más.

Todo está bien.

Wunderschönes traditionelles Riad!

Wunderschöne Unterkunft mit tollen Innenhof und Dachterasse! Die Lage ist toll, um Marrakesch und die Medina zu entdecken ohne gleichzeitig mitten in der wusseligen Medina zu sein. Trotzdem hat man einige Läden und Restaurants in der Umgebung. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und umfangreich. Wir wurden trotz später Ankunftszeit wunderbar empfangen und es wurde uns sogar noch Essen besorgt, vielen Dank dafür. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

Riad sofia

Riad Sofia. La note et les appréciations positives sont tout à fait justifiées. La gentillesse est de mise dans ce riad Nous avons profité de la petite piscine qui est rafraîchissante. Le toit terrasse et ses chaises longues et tente Berbère sont très agréables. Le thé à la menthe servi sur demande et gratuit. Nous recommandons de prendre le transfert depuis l'aéroport pour être accompagnés jusqu'au riad. Par la suite les itinéraires et repères donnés par le riad pour marcher jusqu'au différents sites à visiter et les souks sont parfaites. L' utilisation de Mapsme est indispensable et permet de ne pas se perdre dans les souks. Très bonne localisation Prévoir de payer en cash cet hébergement !

Everything was perfect. The rooms were great, clean, and spacious. All the staff are very nice and helpful, especially Karim. He made our stay even better. He helped us organize some trips and SIM cards and gave us much helpful advice. The location is great, right in the heart of Medina.

Fantastic traditional Riad in a beautiful location in Medina.

Beautiful building with lots of character and charm. The room was very comfortable, we slept really well. The air conditioning was fab! Superb staff, very friendly and made us feel at home.

You have to walk 5 minutes from the main road to get to the property as the roads are very narrow leading to the Road which is situated down beautiful narrow streets. The Riad manager was on hand to take our cases which was great. Just bear this in mind if you have anyone with mobility issues. Be aware when it’s Eid a lot is places are closed including lots of smaller restaurants. Eid can last up to around 3-5 days, so be aware when choosing your dates. We had to go to more expensive hotels/Riads for dinner. Breakfast at the Riad was very, very basic, so don’t expect much variety. Some fresh fruit and cheese would have been nice. After a few breakfasts we were getting a little bored with the offering. A larger Riad would have had a better selection. We had dinner at the Riad once, but once was enough! It was a poor attempt at lamb tagine I’m afraid. The lamb was not enough for two, with no vegetables and more dates than anything else. We were very underwhelmed when the tagine lid was removed! The samosas were great though. If they improved the food offering we would have given a much higher rating. Hopefully they can improve this for the future.

Everything was amazing. Clean, comfortable, great location, amazing staff (especially Karim), beautifully decorated, AC was very good.

Not much to say here. Just would of been nice to have a small fridge in the room for drinks, but there is a fridge downstairs.

Beautiful riad with friendly, gracious hosts

The location was right in the heart of the Medina in Marrakech but was still an island of tranquility. The room was simple but satisfying with lovely decorations. Breakfast was customized to our preferences.

There was some miscommunication with the host on some occasions which meant we were slightly disappointed with the tours offered.

Stunning Riad

Beautiful Riad in a great location. Walking distance to lots of interesting sites. Staff are so helpful and friendly. They also have an on site hammam with massage which was very good value. Great roof top terrace to relax day or night.

A little noisey in the evenings but this is a riad they are old buildings so not sound proofed. Don't let this put you off, it's worth it for the whole experience.

We would recommend this as a stay in central Marrakech

Karim was very welcoming and extremely helpful, it was located with easy access to the central areas but in as it was in a quiet back street there wasnt a lot of noise. The rooftop has good views and perfect for sun lounging

The room was quite dingy, the bed wasnt very comfortable

A very nice group stay

Great staff working there. Karim went above and beyond during our 6 person group stay helping us in many many ways. Breakfasts were great. Location was good in the Medina. Comfortable enough rooms. Not luxury, however comfortable enough. We had a group dinner at the Riad on our first night and it was absolutely delicious with more than enough food. We were allowed to bring in our own wine etc. Karim even offered to go buy it for us.

The rooms are too dark with no where to comfortably sit and lounge. The introduction upon arrival was too intense and too detailed. People need to relax and settle in before being bombarded with details and information. Mint tea being offered would have been nice. No bottled water was provided upon arrival.

Place to go back to!

Great stay just outside of the Medina of Marrakesh. Very friendly host and personnel. They help you wherever they possibly can and arrange whatever you're wishes are! A nice simple breakfast served in the courtyard of the Riad is fresh and good. Everything you want to see in Marrakesh is in walking distance. Inhouse Hammam service is great.

I really couldn't say, if i have to mention something it would be great if there was some soda drinks and small snacks available in the Riad. Now there was only thee available.

Lovely place to stay in Marrakech

The Riad is at an excellent location and the rooms are beautifully decorated. Mehdi and the rest of staff took really good care of us and made sure we had a really good time. The pickup was nicely arranged and the driver waited for us even though our flight was delayed.

They made our 50th anniversary trip special, by laying out rose petals in the words "50 years of love" on our bed. A really nice touch. Which sums up our whole experience at Riad Sofia, special.

Lots of optional add ons

The staff were very friendly and attentive. The Riad was beautifully decorated, and they were able to offer a number of experiences e.g. Hamam as well. The food was also very tasty.

It would be good if they could offer air conditioning, but apart from that no complaints.

I would definitely stay here again. Everything about itcwas special.

The location was perfect right in the heart of Old Town with everything you needed within close walking distance. But what made this place particularly special was the host Mohomed. He was simply the very best!

There was nothing not to like.

Mohomed made our first, not last, stay in Marrakech a wonderful trip. Above & Beyond Customer Care & service.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING RIAD SOFIA ! Mohomed & all the staff were simply GREAT. We travel all over the world and the service & care we received were some of the best ever. We have plans to return next year. Wonderful location too.

There was nothing we did not like. Everything & everyone was amazing.
