(Marrakech)
|
Located in the heart of the Medina this truly is a charmingly authentic residence. Just 15 mins walk to Djemma El Fna and with views of Atlas Mts from sun terrace this is an excellent mid-price choice. There is also an excellent chef for meals on request at the Riad.
Situated in the northern sector of the Medina the Riad El Ouarda allows the visitor to familiarise themselves with some of the less well known but equally fascinating parts of this historic city. Just a short walk though brings you back to the 'beaten track' at the Ben Youssef Medersa and the Museum of Marrakech in the very centre of the Medina.
The Riad el Ouarda is a noble home refurbished from a magnificent 17th Century Palace whose traditional Moroccan splendour has been enhanced to the highest standards. Its simple facade reveals a rich interior whose original architecture of subtle colours and zelliges make it a place of outstanding beauty.
Accommodation:
Five deluxe bedrooms and four open-plan suites with double beds, en suite bathrooms and are spacious and comfortably and authentically furnished. Three new suites were added in 2003, one is duplex style and all three share a small courtyard - refurbished in an annexe to the main riad, accessed via a separate antrance and joined across the roof terrace.
