Such a Gem

This place is very nice. The staff is extremely kind and all of them seemed genuinely happy. The food was some of the best I have ever had. To put more perspective, we ate at a Michelin star restaurant in Amsterdam a few days before arriving in Morrocco. The chef at the Riad Dar Alfarah could easily hold her own against a Michelin star chef, it was that good. We ordered the Lamb and the Moroccan Pastilla.

Very nice staff but dishonest manager

The staff was smiling and welcoming, they did their best to make us feel comfortable. But I had called beforehand to shorten my stay which was confirmed on the phone and at check-in. Nevertheless, the manager managed to steal 5 nights by saying he had no idea. Hotels.com was helpless. I am truly disgusted and can only advise to avoid this place because of their dishonesty. That was not acceptable and left a very bitter taste about Morocco, Marrakech and Hotels.com.

The best Riad in Marrakesh

I have been to Marrakesh 5 times and this was by far the best visit mostly because of this Riad. Not only was it excellent value for money for the luxury of the place, room and breakfast but the service was second to none. Mohammad was the best host and we felt like we were staying at his home rather than a multi-bedroom Riad.

JUSTE INCROYABLEW

première fois que nous séjournons dans un riad marocain, j’ai mis des jours à choisir THE riad où nous nous sentirions dépaysé dans un riad ambiance 1001 nuits, je ne me suis vraiment pas trompé en choisissant ce riad. Personnel accueillant, souriant, disponible tout en étant très discret. La décoration un mélange de traditionnel et de modernité, piscine chauffée, cadre reposant et reposant. Nous avons eu l’occasion de dîner au bord de la piscine un soir avec bougies et pétales de roses, quoi de plus romantique. Nous avons tout simplement adoré.

Parto dal pagamento che è stato la sorpresa peggiore. Expedia mi ha fornito il costo in euro (già abbastanza salato per la località) alla prenotazione, da saldare in loco. Il prezzo si è rivelato non adeguato allo standard offerto, ma oltre a questo è stato fatto il conto nella valuta locale con un cambio soggettivo altissimo (cosa assurda) e a questo è stato aggiunta una commissione del 3,5% per il pagamento con carta di credito (cosa che ci viene specificata all'arrivo ma non da expedia precedentemente e chi paga in contanti?) Trovo queste ultime pratiche molto poco corrette tanto da rendere inaccettabile il rapporto qualità prezzo! Peccato perchè basterebbe poco per rendere il posto perfetto e per non far sentire il cliente "fregato". La struttura si trova in posizione ideale, 500 mt dalla piazza, nella medina ma fuori dal caos della Kasbah. In sè il riad è piacevole, buon colpo d'occhio all'arrivo. Il ricevimento buono e buoni anche i servizi accessori (anche se non funzionante la SPA). Discreta anche la colazione sebbene un po' limitata. La camera è molto basic, non molto pulita, con scendiletto macchiati, tolti dopo la segnalazione fatta in una precedente recensione e senza i servizi fondamentali: abbiamo avuto un salviettone da bagno a testa ed una salvietta da viso da usare in 4. Le salviette sono arrivate solo dopo due giorni e altrettante richieste. Non aspettatevi televisione, frigobar o set di cortesia in bagno... solo saponetta per le mani e dispenser in doccia.

Goed verblijf in Riad te Marrakesh

‘We zijn met de taxi van het hotel toe gekomen : prijs 25€ ,is wel aan te raden want anders vind je nooit de riad, we werden vriendelijk onthaald met duidelijke uitleg en glaasje munt thee. De riad ligt op 10 min stappen van het plein , is rustig gelegen maar toch centraal , ontbijt was goed maar sober. Jammer dat zwembadje nooit in de zon komt en beneden ligt. We hebben lunch genomen in de riad en dat was voortreffelijk, superlekker en op terras boven in zonnetje, zalig !

This Riad was just perfect for our stay! The location is ideal as it is just outside the hustle and bustle meaning it is quiet and very relaxing whilst inside the Riad but only a short walking distance to the markets etc. The Riad itself is spotlessly clean and the service which we received from Khalid and Yasmin (sorry if spellings are wrong!) was brilliant, nothing was ever too much. Would highly recommend and definitely stay there again.

Riad Dar Alfarah is an absolute GEM! Perfectly located in the Medina (old city) areand and in walking distance from most tourist attractions. It's also very easy to get to as it's not too hidden as some other Riads are. The staff is super friendly, helpful and accommodating. Greated us with amazing mint tea on arrival and the manager Mohamed offered great advice and local information. Our room was spacious, clean (daily) and very charismatic. The pool and rooftop areas were also gorgeous and very relaxing! The riad definitely made our stay amazing! Highly recommending this amazing place, transporting you away from the busy streets of Marrakech.
