Riad Karmela Princesse

In the heart of Marrakech’s ancient Medina, a boutique luxury riad just steps from winding souks — about an 8-minute walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa and a few minutes from the Marrakech Museum, Ben Youssef Madrasa and the Maison de la Photographie. Menara Airport is roughly 8.7 km away.

A new, intimate riad with modern Moroccan décor and just 10 rooms, Riad Karmela Princesse pairs chic design with a calm, friendly vibe. Rooms are air-conditioned and feature minibars, flat-screen TVs, DVD players, safes, desks and private bathrooms with designer toiletries and hair dryers. The property centres around a large indoor plunge pool that’s heated in winter and a full-service spa for massages and relaxation.

Soak in the heated plunge pool, unwind in the steam room, sauna or solarium, and book massages at the spa. Concierge services, a library and a banquet/conference hall add convenience, while a complimentary daily reception keeps the social energy flowing — all without losing the riad’s intimate feel.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet, a business center and a conference/banquet hall support meetings and small events, plus a 24-hour front desk and an airport shuttle service (surcharge applies).

An on-site restaurant serves breakfast and dinner and a complimentary continental breakfast is included. Room service is available during limited hours, and the bar/lounge is perfect for evening drinks after exploring the medina.
