If you are wanting a traditional Riad experience the location & ambience of Riad Sofia is excellent.

Pros: Traditional Riad in the Medina - excellent location in a very quiet area but very easy to walk either further into or out of the Medina . Mustafa & everyone were very helpful . The rooms were beautifully decorated & bed was very comfortable , the courtyard an oasis of calm . All exceptionally clean . Breakfast was simple & home prepared. The Hamman & massage was very traditional- great value for money . Mustafa arranged our airport transfers & met us & helped with luggage from & to the taxi . My only slight drop to 9 was on our last morning there was no hot water . Until that point the shower had been very hot & with excellent power .

Just an amazing place to stay in Marrakesh

Pros: There wasn’t anything not to like from the venue the staff were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Our bed was really comfortable. So much help with the collection from the airport to helping us book trips and best places to eat. This really is a gem of Marrakesh.
