Excellent riad in great location
I stayed three nights as a solo traveler, and this is an excellent choice near the main square and palaces. Besides the prime location, Said is an extremely welcoming manager and host, ready to help with any request for reservations. Highly recommend

Beautiful riad with extremely friendly and accommodating staff. The location is overall great and pretty close to everything, but the immediate surroundings of the riad are a little bit rough, which we learned is common for most riads on this city. Still tremendously fun and highly recommended.

We had great experience of staying at Dar Chadia for one night. Hosts are very organized and took care of us well. They conveniently arranged for Taxi (with additional price) when we contacted them for transportation for from/to airport. This hotel location is 5-6 min walk from Taxi stand. But owners/staff received and guided us well. Very convenient and walkable distance to Medina square area. We enjoyed walking through narrow alleys even though some parts are not very neat. They made delicious breakfast with mint tea in the morning. Very pleased with the experience and would recommend it for others

Glowing Review!!!
We have the best experience at Dar Chadia! I have never experienced this kind of hospitality before and we are world travelers! Coralia and Said were amazing and guided us very well. A truly at home experience. While I traveled with my grown children, there was another family with little kids and this place is for everyone! They helped us with maps, ideas, shuttle bookings, hammam recommendations, luggage transfers, and Said even dropped us at 6 am to the front of the gate! We are very grateful and hope to come back again in 2024! Thank you team Dar Chadia! We loved at our stay at your beautiful Riad.
** CLOSE PROXIMITY to everything within the Medina! Stay here!!

Fantastic Experience
Best hospitality ever!! When we booked our hotel, they sent us an email to arrange airport pickup. It was past midnight when we landed. When we got to the hotel, the host greeted us outside and walked us to the location so we wouldn't get lost. All the pathways are like mazes in Marrakesh.
The room was clean and have AC. The people there were so friendly and helpful. They will help arrange for any activites you wish to do. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely stay here again in the future.

Amazing Service
My stay at Dar Chadia was fantastic! Younes, the gentleman who runs the Riad was awesome! This riad is in the older part of town and it is a bit tricky to figure your way out. However, Younes was beyond helpful. My boyfriend and I contacted the riad to set up transportation from the airport to the riad which was extremely convenient. Younes met us at the taxi drop off and walked us to the riad where he had an assortment of pastries and the most delicious mint tea waiting for us. By our surprise there weren't any other guests at the riad when we were there so we had Younes' full attention the entire stay. He was our personal tour guide. He was generous enough to show us around town and give us tips on what to do and where to go. The hospitality given during our stay was more than we expected. We are very grateful for Younes' kindness during our short stay in Marrakech and absolutely would recommend Dar Chadia to anyone thinking of visiting.

It was very quiet. No street noise. Saied (?sp), the manager was wonderful and extremely helpful. The shower worked great (which is sometimes a challenge in Morocco, we found). It was tucked into a back street with some dark alleys, which would have been a little scary in other places, but we felt quite safe in Morocco/Marrakech. One sees women walking alone in the dark alleys all the time, so me and my daughter felt quite safe walking together. We did have to ask for a second set of towels, but that really wasn't that big a deal. The breakfast was very good with ample coffee.

Great stay!
Great little place to stay in Marrakech. The hosts and everyone working there was friendly and helpful. We felt comfortable walking around in the evenings. They helped us to arrange tours, trains and taxis. Room was comfortable and clean, and good breakfast. If I ever return to Marrakech I would definitely stay here again.

Nice Riad, Arrogant and Rude French owners.Avoid.
Appalling behaviour by French couple who own this Riad. I arrived at 10pm at Dar Chadia to be confronted by the French owners (and her brother) that they would not accept my Hotel.com booking, but instead wanted 50EUR cash. They knew at this time that I could not refuse.
From the start, the French female proprietors attitude was hostile, with her preference clearly for elder French couples. My friend's flight had been delayed and she said that they would not be allowed to stay, so I had to offer to open the door. I admit that this was an inconvenience for them, to which I was sorry, but their approach was really sour.
When my friend arrived, he overheard the French lady say "50EUR is not enough money for this inconvenience" under her breath.
The atmosphere from her, her sister-in-law and her brother in the morning was so toxic and uncomfortable. Her husband slightly more pleasant. We felt utterly uncomfortable, as though impeding in their home. We felt a little more relaxed when they finally left.
The Moroccan doing breakfasts was by contrast much friendlier, and represented his own country's hospitality much better.
Breakfast was underwhelming and squeezed onto a tiny table, the toiletries were poor quality. The riad is appealing decorated and elegant, but we felt utterly uncomfortable from the French female owner and hope she manages to improve her attitude, and have a bit more empathy, towards guests in the future.... or get out of the hospitality industry.

El alojamiento está muy bien ubicado, a apenas 3-4 minutos de la plaza Jemaa el-fna. Está muy limpio y las habitaciones son muy cómodas y tranquilas.
Destaco por encima de todo el trato del personal: siempre atentos y muy amigables. Me han ayudado con todo: desde reservas, traslados hasta recomendaciones y explicaciones de cómo ir a los sitios. Te hacen sentir en casa.
Y tomar el gran desayuno que ofrecen en la terraza es una maravilla!
