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. ##### Valerie Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martha 18 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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! ##### Martha Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### natalie F 22 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cosy, central and welcoming! The Riad Raffaele is a cosy and beautiful property in the heart of the Souks. We felt at home the moment we arrived to fresh mint tea and cookies. The location is good, but the surrounding area itself is a little difficult to maneuver at night so I recommend knowing exactly where to go once it gets dark to avoid getting lost. The breakfast was lovely and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. The rooms are basic and the showers aren't very inviting but aside from that this place is a 10! ##### natalie F ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessie H. 17 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Wonderful oasis The Riad was amazing. We were welcomed by the staff with tea and biscuits and they were really helpful in terms of travel tips and where to eat. They also printed out our flight tickets and served breakfast at 6am for us. Really appreciated. The courtyards is so beautiful and we loved our room, which was beautifully designed. There is a small paddle pool on the courtyard but is more of a dip pool than a swimming pool:-) So if you are looking for a holiday where you stay by the pool, this is probably not it. But if you just need a place where to hide from all the craziness and heat outside, and relax, this is an oasis. ##### Jessie H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sabre 19 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Sabre Stayed 5 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### kaori 21 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 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 ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A95FBB3E52D070256A8212401D572288E72152FE1708547284230.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/20A0235B2B79C59573637F971297E596B90264CD1708547277563.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F70D19034DC2B3CD31D81805AE266607BA46ED6A1708547274472.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/84086049452555A9DF9994955088CB47E32E40DF1708547277993.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### kaori Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Connor 30 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities One of the best places I’ve ever stayed.

From the moment we arrived, we were amazed by the hospitality, cleanliness, and stunning decor. The riad truly feels like a peaceful oasis tucked away in the souks — quiet, safe, and beautifully designed. We stayed on the ground floor, and our room was both beautiful and serene. The attention to detail in the decor was incredible, and the washroom was modern and spotless while still keeping a traditional Moroccan charm with stone finishes. A special thank you to Brahim and Souleymane, who went above and beyond throughout our stay. They were always available, friendly, and attentive — helping us with our luggage, keeping our water refilled, giving us helpful local tips, arranging taxis, and even walking us to meet them. Their kindness and hard work truly made our stay so much better. We also had a photographer come to take pictures of my husband and me, and the staff were so accommodating — even serving tea to him while he waited for us. Overall, everything about this riad exceeded our expectations. It’s a hidden gem that combines comfort, culture, and genuine Moroccan hospitality. We would highly recommend it and would love to return! ##### Terron david Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### bouitaina 1 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Passé d'une chambre deluxe à une chambre confort.. Le personnel est très gentils et agréables. En revanche, nous n'avons pas eu la chambre réservés. La réservation sur Hotels stipule une chambre de luxe et nous avons eu droit à une chambre confort, sombre et ne corresponds pas à celle que nous avons réservé. Problème signalé aux responsables mais aucune action ou solution n'a été proposée. Il semble que c'est un problème récurrent puisque d'autres clients avaient été confrontés au même problème. Dommage de nous gâcher partiellement nos vacances. ##### bouitaina Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna 22 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We spent 4 nights at this beautiful Riad. Very peaceful & in a great location at the top of the Medina which made exploring on foot very easy. A lovely breakfast each morning of breads and eggs up on the roof top. All the staff were friendly and so welcoming but I must call out Brahim, who gave us a very warm welcome, told us all there is to know on the local area and really looked after us during our stay & at breakfast. A wonderful stay. Thank you all. We can also ecommend the spa & the service provided by Maryam & Oumyma. We booked the duo couples hamman & massage and it was sheer bliss. Once I overcame my inhibitions of being half naked, with just the provided disposable knickers on, it was amazing. The hamman left our skin so soft and cleansed. The massage was so relaxing and included a facial. It was a wonderful treat after a couple of hectic days exploring the Medina. It ends with a delicious, refreshing mint tea. Thank you Maryam & Oumyma for making us feel so special & giving us renewed glowing skin! Such a wonderful Riad - we loved it. ##### Anna Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia 8 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property and wonderful staff… the only downside is they do not serve alcohol- do I read on their Expedia page when I booked said that they did. ##### Patricia Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rukmini 5 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This riad is lovely, has mod cons and is situated in a lovely location, easy to get to all the souks and the taxi rank. However there are some areas for improvement bearing in mind that I have been to Marrakech twice before and stayed in local riads… on our arrival we were greeted warmly with refreshments but then were told that a staff member will be explaining the area on a map and this went on for quite some time which I felt was really unnecessary especially as we were not asked if we needed this information. We were quite tired, already had our days planned and booked museums and this was not needed. No other riad has subjected me to this and certainly not the way I would like to start the holiday. I had to ask twice to allow us to just get changed and start exploring the city. Their breakfasts were not substantial, especially as a vegetarian who does not eggs, they did not cater enough. I had asked for some yoghurt and they did not have any on any of the days. Again in contrast to other riads who have provided a far more substantial breakfast. They also had real problems with their card machine which I found quite stressful to be honest, and I wasn’t the only English person who experienced this. Again other riads I’ve stayed at did not have this problem. They are issues with their plumbing from scorching hot to very cold. ##### Rukmini Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 28 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic stay!

The location is absolutely perfect, a bit hidden from the rustle and bustle of the medina but simultaneously situated within a short walking distance to most of the main attractions and popular restaurants. The neighborhood was also perfect for stumbling upon all sorts of souk gems. But by far the best part of staying here was the warm welcome and daily accommodations provided by the staff and hotel owners. My mother and I have never felt safer and more well taken care of at another hotel and for that we are very grateful. Thank you Riad Rafaele for a setting the sweetest tone for a trip of a lifetime! ##### Valrie Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela 19 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 1001 nuits Our stay in Riad Rafaele was amazing. The riad is very well located, literally some steps from the souk, but it remains calm, I had the impression to leave in the country side. The staff and owners are very friendly and helpful. We received a lot of helpful tips from everyone. We had the chance to book a massage, best decision ever, it was amazing. I loved the decoration of the riad, it is bright and full of light.
