“You leave the bustle of the medina behind when you step through the ancient door into this elegant riad. Formed from several mansions, connected by a maze of corridors, handsome rooms and calm courtyards, it houses a fine collection of antiques, ceramics, textiles and paintings, and makes a very special place to stay. Open fireplaces, a small pool and hammam add to the air of stylish simplicity. Staff are attentive and the chef prepares delicious Tajines.”

“Riyad El Cadi, with its numerous patios, staircases, passages and halls right in the heart of the Medina of Marrakech, is a perfect oasis of rest and unexpected tranquillity. Rare and early Moroccan artefacts, an important collection of Berber costumes, many other objects of Islamic art and classical Asian furniture create an exceptional atmosphere. Because of the very private character of the house and its furnishings, guests are welcome who appreciate the ambience and take care of the objects they are entrusted with.”
