Morocco immediately conjures up images of camels and sweeping desert landscapes, mighty snow-capped mountains, sandy Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines, and ancient cities. It's colourful and enchanting, a feast for all the senses, and nowhere captures the spirit of the country like vibrant Marrakech. Just a five-minute walk from the famous Jena El Fnaa square in the old labyrinthine medina, you'll discover the beautiful boutique Riad Touda, a tranquil oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding souks.
Marrakech’s medina is full of bustling souks with colourful aromatic spices for sale, local handcrafted leather and textiles alongside pretty lanterns. A kaleidoscope of colours, you'll find terracotta and dusky pink buildings set against the clear blue sky. Overflowing with ornate mosques, palaces and luscious gardens, there is so much to explore. Not forgetting the delicious Moroccan cuisine and the famous mint tea, perfect for a refreshing pit stop.
As soon as you step into the stunning Riad Touda, you'll be transported to a tranquil oasis away from it all and greeted by the attentive and welcoming staff. The dazzling central courtyard will wow you with its indoor pool, beautiful authentic architecture and ornate Moroccan décor. Once unpacked in your comfortable and exquisitely designed room, head to the stunning roof terrace to admire the outstanding views across the city.
Begin each day with your delicious, inclusive breakfast. With countless dining options available in the medina and beyond, you'll have plenty of chances to try the delicious local cuisine for lunches and dinners. The riad also offers traditional Berber fare, so why not eat in and try the tasty tagines with preserved lemons, Berber couscous and grilled eggplant salads.
The riad is so pretty you’ll be tempted to stay in and relax, cosy up in the little lounge area or in the fire corner on cooler nights. The staff are always on hand for recommendations of where to go and what to see, and as soon as you leave the riad, you'll find the best of the city is within easy reach. The ideal way to explore is by foot, soaking in the atmosphere and getting lost in this incredible city. You won’t want to leave.
