The new owners Lisa and Michael have recently transformed this riad into a stylish boutique hotel in the centre of the medina.
This is a funky modern riad, which is decorated in neutral tones with splashes of bright colours dotted around the white walls. There are six suites, all similar in style, which are all decorated with great attention to every detail. There is a plunge pool in the courtyard and a large roof terrace with separate lounging areas.
Meals can be taken either in the courtyard or on the roof terrace and there is a varied menu. Breakfasts are one of the best that can be found in the medina.
Lisa is always on hand to help with anything that her guests need and even takes people on shopping trips into the souks and gives cookery demonstrations in the riad.
