Riad Palais des Princesses  

In the heart of Marrakech’s Medina, a 5-star riad steps just minutes from the famous Jamaa el-Fna. You’re a short walk from Koutoubia Mosque and cultural stops like Dar Tiskiwin, Dar Si Said and the Museum of Moroccan Arts—perfect for wandering the souks and late-night street life.

Rooms ring a sunlit central courtyard filled with flowers and trees. Bright, air-conditioned rooms feature flat-screen TVs, minibars and private bathrooms; some even sport four-poster beds. Expect daily housekeeping, complimentary toiletries and an intimate, luxury riad vibe.

Dip into an indoor pool or unwind at the full-service Spa & Wellness Centre with a hammam, hot tub, massages and facials. There’s also a hair salon, solarium, library and a cozy lobby fireplace. Concierge and a tour desk make exploring the medina easy, and public parking is available nearby—wake up to courtyard mornings, then head out to the souk.

Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. The riad offers express check-in, 24-hour front desk service, dry cleaning/laundry and safes. Family-friendly touches include complimentary cribs/infant beds on request; train-station pick-up and roundtrip airport shuttle are available for a surcharge.

Start with a buffet breakfast served on the terrace, then sample traditional Moroccan cuisine in the on-site restaurant. A bar/lounge pours evening drinks, and room service lets you linger by the courtyard with mint tea.
