- JennAkchour, Morocco7 contributionsBEST HAMMAM ever!!!!! For real!!!!!!Khadija is a true professional and has a unique approach also. She did such an outstanding job exfoliating/scrubbing and massaging with all the local oils and herbs that are natural skin remedies/products. I have experienced a couple of hammams and she is the best, by far. She is incredibly kind, courteous and joyful in addition to being the best in the business!!!!! Look no further than to spend your $ on a hammam here instead of a public one, I am telling you that a hammam with Khadija will be one of your highlights of your trip to Chefchaouen! It has certainly been mine :-)Date of stay: December 2022Written December 29, 2022
- Lancet25 contributionsPerfect base from which to explore the Blue CityWe count ourselves lucky to have landed at this beautiful riad, minutes away from everything in the heart of the medina. Our room was cozy and the full-featured bathroom especially nicely laid out. Breakfasts were delicious...we went out early one morning to see the city before everything opened up which was especially, memorable, and coming back to our warm breakfast pastries and fresh coffee and tea was a true pleasure.Date of stay: November 2019Written January 8, 2020
- peppermintpatty07Tel Aviv, Israel43 contributionsUnique accommodation with an eclectic vibeRiad Cherifa is a beautifully decorated and well-maintained Riad in Chefchaouene. The location was ideal. It was very easy to find after a full day of getting lost and exploring. The decor is eclectic, colourful and completely different to any of the other Riad's we stayed. The weather was quite cold and rainy while visiting so, the Riad itself was definitely chilly but, the rooms were heated (which we needed and took advantage of) and a fire was prepared for us in the morning at breakfast. We were 3 people in our room and we had a large bed plus a twin sized bed. The room was small but, well appointed and the linens were quite luxurious. Breakfast was delicious and extensive and we loved the homemade jams with doughnuts. Coffee and tea were plentiful. We were assisted with transportation to our next destination and overall were very pleased with our stay. Riad Cherifa is definitely a solid option when visiting Chefchaouene and we would recommend.Date of stay: March 2022Written March 14, 2022

Chefchaouen is famous as the 'Blue Pearl' of Morocco, and it is truly stunning, but just as stunning as the town itself is Riad Cherifa. Wow, how beautiful is this riad?! I think we were all a little slack-jawed with amazement when we arrived to a most welcome cup of mint tea seated in the tranquility of the restaurant area near the small pool. I cannot describe how beautifully decorated the riad is, how crammed full of wonderful pieces of furniture it is, and how friendly, professional and efficient every member of staff is. I also cannot count the number of times I got lost trying to find my room - the riad is a bit of a rabbit warren! Never mind, it was a chance to explore again the lovely public areas. Our rooms were adjacent to each other and while not huge were very comfortable. Breakfast was one of the best we had during our trip, but we were troubled extensively by bees attracted to the honey and preserves. Serving these with covers would probably deal with that issue. Bees or no bees I wholeheartedly recommend Riad Cherifa. It is a feast for the eyes and perfectly located within this fascinating town.…

Best stay ever! Hands down, this was one of the most memorable places that I have stayed. The Riad itself was stunning - literally every area of the hotel was beautifully decorated, including our room. The bed was super comfortable, the shower was luxurious and the breakfast was great. I would absolutely stay again as it was one of the highlights of our trip through Morocco and Spain.

A lovely space in an incredible location within Chefchaouen. We enjoyed the comforts of our room! The bed was comfy, the room was cool, and the shower was delightful! Breakfast by the pool in the morning was excellent and everything is easily within walking distance. We enjoyed everything about our stay!

This Riad is tastefully decorated and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The front desk spoke good English. The break fast was good and substantial. We (parents) got the luxury room on third floor and our children got the midsize room. Both rooms were comfortable and nicely done. The AC worked well (it was a hot day in June)! There are many nice sitting areas at all floor levels. The pool area is nice but the pool is small. If I visit Chefchaouen again, I would not hesitate to stay at this Riad for a few days. My only complaint is the door lock was very difficult to open and close.

Located just off the main path in the medina. Others have said that there are many steps inside but that is just part of the charm. Beautiful room with a great shower. Good breakfast by the side of the small pool. The rooftop terrace is so good to watch the sun go down. Deserves it's top rating.

This Riad is awesome! The room was so cute! Two twins, a small sitting area, and a bathroom with a shower, toilet and bidet. The staff was wonderful. I had a hammam and massage, which was wonderful and very inexpensive. Breakfast by the pool was nice. We had a great guide take us around the city.

I had an amazing experience at this place - the room and riad were absolutely stunning, adorned with delightful Moroccan decor. Its central location in the heart of the medina was convenient. The staff were friendly and provided top-notch service. The breakfast was delicious and satisfying. Although I didn't have the opportunity to use the swimming pool, it added a charming touch to the overall ambience. The common areas were plentiful and beautifully designed, creating perfect spaces to relax and unwind. Regrettably, I missed out on the rooftop/terrace and the breathtaking view it offers. The only minor point to mention is that the property is a 7-minute walk from the parking area near the kasbah, so it's advisable to seek assistance with luggage due to the cobblestone paths.

This is such a jewel. The hotel is lovely, so well decorated, rich in details and good taste in combinations. Rooms are spacious and gracious. It is true there are many stairs so if you have mobilidade issues, watch out! Breakfast is delicious served by the pool. An excellent choice to stay in the Blue City !
