“In the northern reaches of the Medina, this riad impressed me with its harmonious blend of traditional Moroccan architecture and modern minimalist design. The quiet, intimate setting, punctuated by green courtyards, creates a true sense of escape, while remaining convenient to major attractions. The rooftop terrace, with its views of the city and the Atlas Mountains, struck me as the perfect place to unwind after exploring the bustling streets.”

nice stay IN the medina

contemporary look excellent service taxi tips
the riad was beautifully renovated AND decorated with a contemporary look. the hosts and caretakers provided excellent service. mohamed was helpful before our arrival, assisting with taxis and souk tips. imad was attentive and ensured we were well taken care of .
the riad is located in a remote area. accessing the centre required a taxi, as walking was quite far. there Were NO name signs, giving the impression of a random door.
Location
8/10
the hotel IS within walking distance of various tourist sites, though it requires a bit OF a walk TO reach the centre. a taxi station NEARBY assists with transport needs. many motorcycles and some dust are present.
Dining

the breakfast included fried eggs every morning WITH crepe or traditional pastry. porridge or yogurts were not available, limiting the selection. good coffee was available AND prepared perfectly.
