My friend and I stayed here in June and we had such a pleasant experience. A peaceful oasis away from the bustling medina & the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We had dinner the night we arrived and it was delicious with generous portions, would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to have a quite night at the Riad. My friend said the pool was the perfect temperature. We loved the location, right at the entrance to the medina and a short walk to Bacha coffee. It can be a little tricky to find at first but you get used to it quite quickly. The alleyway to get to the Riad may feel intimidating at first but the people and children we passed were always said hello and were friendly. We never felt unsafe. If you return late at night you will need to knock loudly so they can hear you.

Overall we had a great stay however we did find the beds to be very firm and the air conditioner struggled to cool the room down however I will definitely stay here again, maybe not in the middle of summer.

I loved everything about this Riad, it was pretty, quaint and relaxing. The staff at the hotel were friendly, helpful and couldn't do enough for us! I was traveling with a one year old and they couldn't be more helpful and loving towards her. Our room was spacious, the bed and pillows were both very comfortable and we had everything we needed in our room. The location was fantastic as we could walk to most places we wanted to visit within the medina and was easy enough to get a taxi from the nearby road. It was a very quiet Riad which made it very relaxing and peaceful, at breakfast we were presented with small plates of food which was delicious. I would recommend to anyone and I would 100% book again for my next visit to Marrakech! :)

The rooms were spacious and the bathrooms are spacious too. The staff are lovely and very accommodating. Overall nice property with homely vibe it is peaceful. The location is amazing it is close to the city buzz but on a quiet side road. Takes only 5-10 minutes to get to most places. We really enjoyed our stay here overall definitely would recommend for families.

Only down side is the breakfast options are limited and they have similar breakfast everyday. You can request more food if you need. The swimming pool is small and not great if you want a proper swim and the water is warm.

Our stay at Dar Charkia was extraordinary. Nestled in Marrakech's medina, this riad marries traditional Moroccan allure with contemporary luxury. The staff's hospitality was exemplary, providing bespoke city guidance. Our room was a haven of tranquillity, and the rooftop views were spellbinding. The breakfast offered a delightful selection of local fare. Dar Charkia is a Moroccan treasure that rendered our journey unforgettable. The staff were exceptional, friendly and cared for our family. My son was able to store his meds in the fridge and they allowed us to use the kitchen freely.

Property is in a great location! The riad is clean, homely and has a great peaceful rooftop! The staff at Dar Charkia were so welcoming and friendly to us! I would highly recommend staying in Dar Charkia! They accommodated earlier breakfast for us on days we had activities booked. The room was big and spacious, and the riad pool area was beautifully decorated. We loved our stay in Dar Charkia.

Nothing, everything was great!

We were pleasantly surprised by the beauty of this riad (the pictures were accurate but don't do justice to the peace and serenity you feel when you enter the place). We had a wonderful stay and were provided with everything we needed and more. We've made great use of the pool and the roof terrace as well as the many lounging areas at the riad. The location of the riad is excellent with many of the Marrakech hotspots at a 5-15 minute walking distance. On top of that, the incredibly beautiful and kind host Samira and the other staff members were truly the best we could wish for. Extremely helpful and kind, always in for a chat, recommendations or simply for good company. We thank them from the bottom of our hearts for taking our stay to the next level and certainly hope to come back soon.

The water pressure in the shower is a bit low.

The breakfast was delicious. The location was good with a short walk to the medina. The pool was glorious on our final afternoon before we flew out allowing us to stay cool. Hotel staff were happy for us to continue using the communal areas including pool after checkout. Great service organising us a transfer to the airport in the evening.

Room was set up with an extra bed when we arrived, despite this not being: in the photos, in the room description or requested. Took quite a lot of "discussion" with the hotel management before they agreed to remove the second bed and replace it the seating area we were expecting.

Great peaceful and silent place to rest at walking distance of the souks. Very polite and friendly staff that was waiting for us when arriving in the middle of the night and arranged tourist trips for us. Nice rooftop terrace with enough space for sunbathing as well as shadow and a little refreshing pool. Definitely would recommend to stay here as it is close to the souks yet very quiet.

Nothing at all.

The location of the Riad is perfect for day exploring in Marrakech. You are close to the main souks and a quick taxi ride away from other sites and transportation hubs of the city. The Riad itself is gorgeous—- clean, luxurious and beautiful! The pool area is quiet and serene with a cold bath perfect after a day of navigating the hot city streets. The bedroom is decorated simply and aesthetically pleasing with a zen and calm feel to it. Sam (Samiyra) is so lovely! She is kind, welcoming, attentive and helpful with planning things to do as well as giving you important tips about her city.

Location was great. Close to the souks, spas and great restaurantd and easy accessible from the main road. We stayed in Khmissa room which was very spacious and private. Bed was firm but comfortable and the linen good quality. Lovely Moroccon breakfast. Staff were very accommodating. Beautiful common area. The Riad is beautiful and quiet, no road noise. We will definitely stay here again.

The drain smell in the bathroom which I understand is a common problem in Morocco, but we kept the window open and door closed which helped. They should make better use of their terrace, lovely space but underutilised. We would have loved a warm pool.
