Fantastic stay from start to finish. We were contacted after booking, which was a lovely touch, and we chose this riad based on repeat-guest reviews — now we know why.

Perfect location: peaceful but still close enough to feel part of Marrakech. The room was spacious and spotless, with the bonus of a real fire in the bedroom each evening. We had two dinners at the riad, both delicious and great value.

Amazing breakfast and outstanding hospitality from Nicholas and his team. We will definitely be back on our next visit to Marrakesh.

Parfaitement situé au nord de la Medina, ce Riad est un petit coin de paradis. Nous avons été chaleureusement accueilli par Rachid et Abdou. Mention spécial pour le petit déjeuner qui est extraordinaire, le massage au top et la chambre avec cheminée. Au plaisir de vous revoir.

Excellent Riad in Marrakech

Beautiful Riad in Marrakech. A little removed from the centre of town and main sites but you feel very well cared for here. The rooms are lovely and unique and the food was exceptional.

This property is not super close to the souk, but it's worth the walk. The property is elegant and spacious with many nooks to hideout in. Rooftop breakfast is a must. Lots of plants and foliage make the experience inviting. The rooms are charming, with lots of wood and brick, and marble. A really welcome break from the hustle of the medina.

A beautiful riad in the medina of Marrakech

Wow! From the second we entered Riad Kbour & Chour, we immediately felt at ease, taken care of, and were completely enamored with the thoughtful and beautiful design. The owner, Jacques, greeted us and took us on a fun bike ride around the neighborhood (note: while inside the medina walls, it is about a 20 min walk to most of the sites).

The lush garden, rooms, and food were all excellent. It was one of the best hotels we've stayed at for the hospitality. Would highly recommend having dinner (and breakfast) there, as well!

The Kbour and Chou Riad was a lovely place to stay in Marrakech. Nicolas is a very easy going, pleasant and helpful person serving as your host for the stay. The courtyard is beautifully decorated with plants and furniture, making for a relaxing and serene environment. The Koubba Suite was large and comfortable. The room décor was tasteful and all in beautiful Moroccan style. The bathroom is huge, with a magnificent high brick ceiling. There is a large bathtub. The bed is comfortable and the room is quiet. We had dinner up on the roof terrace the first evening of our stay. The food was delicious, the environment wonderful and the service friendly and attentive. Breakfast is served on the rooftop terrace each morning, which was delicious. There are two pet dogs in the riad (Bobby and Labas (sp?)) who are very friendly and keep an eye on things around the riad. There is also a cat, which is a slight problem for people like me who have a mild allergy to cats, but it stays to itself for the most part and was not a big problem. The staff at the riad are extremely nice and eager to help, especially Azziz and Khalid, who made the meals a particularly enjoyable experience. The location of the riad is in the Medina, about a 10-minute walk to the souks and 20 minutes to Jemaa El-Fna, which puts it away from the most touristy areas and which felt like a more authentic, local neighbourhood. I would highly recommend this riad for a stay in Marrakech.

The riad was beautiful and staff really nice. It was nice for a short stay. For a long stay maybe you will need more privacy.

Beautiful Riad tucked away in the north part of the medina. Superb breakfast and dinners, everything is home made (bread, jams, natural yoghurt and granola). By far the best breakfast in Marrakesh.
The rooms are tastefully designed, light, airy and very clean. The dinners are a must, on the roof terrace with your own private fire and dining are. Jacques the co-owner is so helpful and all the staff are incredibly friendly and will do whatever they can to make you comfortable and happy. Loubass and Bobby the two dogs are incredibly loving and made us feel very at home.
This is the best Riad in Marrakesh. A secret oasis and escape from all the hustle and bustle that Marrakesh delivers.

Beautiful and Serene

Our stay in Kbour & Chou Was excellent. The walk through a few bustling streets, alleys and a short tunnel, brought us to the Riad’s doorway. Once inside the serene courtyard, you immediately felt at peace. Nicholas welcomed us with a pot of mint tea and some sweets. It was hard at first listening to his many recommendations because I was taking in all of the amazing detailed architecture, plant life, water feature, the soft sounds of birds singing and the two beautiful dogs. His staff and partner introduced themselves and welcomed us as well. Nicolas took the time to show us a map of the Medina and souks. He was very helpful in recommending where to eat and places of interest to see. We stayed in the Kofiq room for six nights. This is a spacious and comfortable room with beautiful detailed work throughout. Our breakfast was served up on the terrace and anything you desired was freshly prepared. My celiac diet was accommodated with perfection. Our dinner, also served on the terrace, consisted of multiple gourmet courses from soup to desert. Just thinking of the lamb tagine still stimulates my appetite. This Riad was quite a find and I certainly can see why the ratings are high.

Beautiful quiet oasis

My daughter and I spent two days in Marrakech at this place. We felt at home! The place is run by a very nice couple and the hospitality is as good as homey. The Riad is beautifully decorated and comfortable, evenings one can sit in the candle lit patio or on the rooftop terrace. The whole place is inviting and comfortable. We had a ground floor room which was beautiful. The breakfast is memorable! Everything that one dreams of is served in the most elegant manner by the friendliest staff. The jams,breads and yogurt are homemade and everything tastes great and fresh.
We also had the homemade couscous served on the rooftop and it was enough for 4 even though we were 2! I highly recommend this Riad to anyone who is looking for a homely hospitality and atmosphere interacting with the helpful and attentive owners as well as their two super nice dogs!

Home away from Home

A sparkling gem in the heart of Marrakech!
From its gorgeous interior design, walking distance to all sites (or easily find taxis to go anywhere), to its beyond excellent service, this place turned into a home away from home. The staff are the true heart of this institute and make you feel welcome and warm.

Un giardino segreto, entrando la prima volta senti già che sarà un soggiorno speciale, rilassante ed emozionante.
Le finiture degli interni e le scelte delle decorazioni sono ricercate.
Jacques e il personale del Riad sono host speciali, gentili, sorridenti e sempre disponibili.

Il riad è situato nella Medina antica, in una posizione comoda per raggiungere i souk e il nuovo quartiere di Guelize. La zona è sicura e tranquilla.

Colazione super!

Grazie mille, speriamo di tornare prestissimo!

Exquisite and calm spot in Marrakech’s buzz

Had a fantastic stay at the Riad. Located in a secluded backstreet makes it hard to find for both guests and noise. A perfect place to get a relaxing and calm spot in Marrakech’s buzz. With unique and exquisite design and high quality food, this really fulfilled and concluded our Morocco trip. The direct neighborhood could be nicer after dawn, but why leave this pearl?

Accueil attentif . Le sens du détail aussi bien au niveau de la décoration du lieu que de l'attention portée par le personnel. Ne vous laissez pas impressionner par le quartier en recomposition, il s'agit bien d'une pépite, un oasis de douceur et de calme au nord de la medina . Et puis d'un coup de vélo on rejoint le coeur trépidant de Marrakech . Une belle adresse , originale et non conventionelle
