I travel to Morocco frequently and I have to say this is the best place I’ve stayed so far. The entire staff is extremely attentive, professional and helpful with anything you need. I felt like I was at my second home truly. I wasn’t ready to leave. Riad Challa is definitely my go to place when I visit Marrakech again!

Riad is beautiful and location is great. The room was clean but had a very slight sewage odour you noticed each time you walked into it. Staff was a bit aloof.

Average stay
The building is beautiful, but difficult to find. The AC leaked all over one of the beds and the floor for most of the time we were there. The Medina is very close once you learn the alleys. The room was very beautiful, except for the leak. The bathroom was lovely and we didn’t have any issues with the hot water.

All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble at all. Kamal and his team amazing. The location of the hotel couldn't of been better very close to the main square and a lot of lovely restaurants. Facilities were great we didn't brave the pool it was a tad cold this time of year, but did look amazing especially at night.

Edge of medina vey convenient.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel is was lovely with delightful and helpful staff. Good breakfasts. WiFi and Aircon both excellent. It is located close to Jmaa el Fnaa so excellent evening entertainment on hand, but equally taxis nearby to go further afield. The only slight drawback was a smelly drain in our bathroom which we dealt with by running the fan.

Angenehmer Aufenthalt
Schönes Riad. Das Frühstück war offenes Buffet und sehr lecker. "Mustafa" vom Personal war sehr freundlich und immer hilfsbereit. Das Hotel war auch relativ nah zum Haupt Platz. Allerdings haben wir in diesem Hotel das höchste City-Tax unseres Urlaubs bezahlt.

We were in the Riad when it was really cold at night. Comfort in the room is great as it has a heating but the breakfast area on the roof was freezing cold, also breakfast wasn´t too convincing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It´s a quite area even though it´s in the medina, only the room walls are quite thin so that you here all sounds of your neighbors. Wifi did work properly.

1度は泊まって欲しい宿
フナ広場まで徒歩6分ほどで着くので立地はかなり良いです!ホテル前は車が入れないのでタクシーを降りて歩いていると荷物持つよ、道案内するよとあっという間に取り囲まれるので、空港まで送迎を頼んだ方が良いです。チェックイン時にはミントティーを出してもらいました。フロントは、英語が喋れるひとがかぎられているので、質問などはまとめて済ませた方が良いと思います!部屋は清潔感あり!どこを撮っても絵になる素敵なホテルです!
