The Nigella Room connects to the Juniper Room, accommodating families or groups of up to five. The Ras al Hanout Room includes a queen-size bed or two singles, while the Ginger Room features a smart TV, mini-bar, and free WiFi. One suite has a private kitchenette. Bathrooms have separate showers, and some include full-size tubs-a rarity in water-conscious Marrakech.
Breakfast and local cuisine
Guests can start the day with a continental or halal breakfast. The property emphasizes authentic Marrakech cuisine, with dishes inspired by local spices like ras al hanout and grains of paradise. Nearby, Derb Said Ahansal street leads to Max and Jan, a high-end concept store, and the Ben Yussef Mosque.
Pool and relaxation spots
The rooftop terrace features an outdoor pool, which can be covered for private dinners. Hand-carved Moroccan details and cedar doors add to the ambiance. Riad Star, a sister property, provides a hammam, spa, and cookery school for those seeking additional leisure options.
Historic Medina location
The riad is 400 meters from Le Jardin Secret and the Orientalist Museum. The main square, Jemaa el-Fnaa, is a 5- to 15-minute walk, passing boutiques and landmarks like the Almoravid Koubba. Marrakech-Menara Airport is the nearest transport hub.
Multilingual staff assistance
Reception staff speak Arabic, English, and French, offering non-stop support. Services include free WiFi, heating, and ironing facilities. The property, restored by master craftsmen, preserves 16th-century details like Zellij tiles and plasterwork.
“In the heart of the Medina, this boutique establishment distinguishes itself through its architecture and personalized service. The rooftop terrace, complete with sun loungers, offers a tranquil escape after exploring nearby souks. Though access can be challenging, the reward is a unique immersion into Marrakech's vibrant culture and the hotel's commitment to authentic Moroccan hospitality.”
