Even the French can’t find anything to criticise about Riad Rafaele! A little oasis of peace in the middle of the busy Medina. The staff is amazing and always goes the extra mile to accommodate. The bedrooms are large, clean and welcoming and the massages very needed after a long day walking in the Souk. Definitely recommend this property.

We had the most amazing stay at Riad Rafaele. From the welcome we received on arrival to the morning we left it was perfect. It is an oasis of tranquillity. Great location for walking to the souks and major attractions. The riad itself has been restored by the owners and is beautifully decorated. We stayed in one of the suites which was very spacious and clean. Valerie, the owner, was charming and very welcoming and helpful. She really cares that her guests have everything they need and have the best experience. The staff are brilliant, helpful and friendly, amazing customer service. Houssaine was fantastic and arranged a tuk tuk to take us to a dinner booking and back which was a great experience. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was lovely and fresh. We loved staying here and it genuinely felt like we were staying with good friends. We will definitely stay again when we return to Marrakech. Merci Valerie, Houssaine, Ridouan and Ibrahim.

Lovely road in medina
We arrived from Agafay desert and the reception organised a cart pull servant to pick us up which was an experience. The Road was inside the medina and the reception was really welcoming. The room were really beautiful and the bed was so comfortable. We also had time to get a quick massage upstairs and a swim. Hussein the night receptionist was also very helpful and made sure our taxi pick up was reserved for our early morning transport to the airport. We had breakfast at 8am but we didn’t get the egg omelet I gues we had early breakfast (8am) they didn’t have the eggs delivered yet( we saw it coming up around 8:20 so was probably too late for us to consume any eggs). The chef and Hussein was really helpful and attentive The masseurs were also really iood and I felt refreshed. I also liked the mini shop for a wee doubt. Definitely come back for a longer stay

Look no further, this is the place to stay!
Such a beautiful, clean, amazing location! I did lots of research on where to stay and im so glad i chose this place. The entrance seems a bit hidden but once you get into the riad, you discover such a gorgeous location. Everyone was extremely helpful and even had the opportunity to meet the owner who was friendly and assisted us with an issue himself. The food here is so good! The chicken tagine was the best i had in Morocco! Definitely going back here when i return!

The Riad was a nice haven away from hustle and bustle of the markets. The owners were very helpful with tips during our stay. All of the staff were very accomodating. I especially likes that there was the shaded lounge areas to cool down after a long hot day but if you wanted some sun the terrace had plenty of areas to sit. Meals and drinks were lovely and tasty

Our stay at Riad Rafaele was perfect! The Riad is stunning as was our room. The pool is lovely and the rooftop is so nicely furnished and comfortable and quiet, an oasis in the bustling medina. The massages are great too and reasonably priced. When we arrived, Marwan greeted us with tea and info about the Medina which was enormously helpful. He even helped us in negotiating the return of a jacket we had left in a taxi. I can’t rave enough about Riad Rafaele! My only complaint is that the bar wasn’t always fully stocked with alcoholic beverages, but that’s a minor issue considering that most of Marrakech is alcohol free.

Beautiful riad in a perfect location!
Don’t look any further, book this riad! My wife and I stayed here during our time in Marrakech. The owners and staff are incredibly welcoming and the property itself is a dream. We enjoyed watching the sunsets and drinking wine from the rooftop patio. We also booked a couples hamman (traditional Moroccan bath)/ massage and I’m still dreaming about the experience.

This Riad was lovely. Clean and quiet. The food at the on-site restaurant was very good. The room was comfortable and the pool was great to have after some long days out. The stand out was Marwan (manager/concierge ?). He was so helpful and fun to chat with. He made our experience a step above what we expected.

Very nice Riad experience in Marrakech!
I wanted to have the experience of staying in a Riad in the middle of Marrakech. This fit the bill! As with any old city, the taxi could not drop us off directly in front of the Riad so someone from the Riad picked us up from the closest parking lot. The hotel was well-kept, considering how old it was. It gives you an idea of how people lived in this The breakfasts and dinners they served were very tasty, freshly made too. The staff was super-super helpful, for which I was very thankful. One of my ID cards fell from my luggage, they found it and immediately sent it to the next hotel where we were staying. I would highly recommend.
