Riyad El Cadi 4 Stars


"Serene and sophisticated, and within a stone's throw of the Djmaa el Fna, Riyad El Cadi is one of the most delightfully intimate of all the riads in Marrakech."

The Press Say

"Uncluttered and contemporary." Conde Nast Traveller 06

"A Medina within the Medina, this labyrinth of riads offers unexpected delights at every turn: lovers' balconies, secret alcoves, a Marrakshi red hammam, a modest pool and glimpses of an outstanding collection of art and antiques from Morocco to Turkey." Lonely Planet 08

Hotel Overview

Review of Riyad El Cadi, by Joanna Monkhouse

The Riyad El Cadi luxury riad is a maze-like collection of rooms, winding staircases and twisting corridors around five courtyards in seven interconnected houses located at the end of three narrow alleys a short walk from Djmaa el Fna.

His museum quality pieces are displayed in every room, to great effect against a backdrop of fresh, white walls.

The facilities

Riyad El Cadi's courtyards provide various areas in which to relax under palms and citrus trees. One of them contains a small solar heated pool/Jacuzzi. Three salons with a TV and hifi, a well-stock

The rooms

One of the houses at Riyad el Cadi, La Maison Bleue, has two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a small kitchen - making it ideal for families. The four ground floor rooms have ensuite showers, while the eight first floor rooms have ensuite bathrooms.
