“This intimate riad, tucked just off the main road, struck me as a tranquil escape. The personalized service, owing to its mere six rooms, is a standout feature, alongside spa services that are unusually comprehensive for a hotel of this size. I particularly appreciate the two terraces, offering distinct perspectives for unwinding after a day in the souks.”

A peaceful haven in the Medina
beautiful rooms comfortable rooms charming terrace ready staff
The rooms were really beautiful and very comfortable. I appreciated the charming terrace that had amazing sunsets. Housekeeping was done daily, so I didnt need to ask for it. I also found the staff was always ready to answer my questions immediately.
The rooms can feel a little dark. This is especially true if you are doing makeup and want very bright light.
Dining
