Riads in Marrakech are traditional Moroccan houses converted into hotels, typically located inside the Medina. These properties center around an interior courtyard, often with a plunge pool and orange trees. Most are within walking distance of Jemaa el-Fna Square but car access is limited due to narrow alleys-most riads offer airport shuttles. Guests can expect hammam, rooftop terraces with Atlas Mountain views, and Moroccan breakfast included. Budgets range from $50 per night for simple rooms to over $300 for luxury suites.
Top-rated options include La Villa Des Orangers, a Relais & Châteaux property housed in a former palace with three patios, two swimming pools, and a full spa. Riad Kheirredine scores 98/100 and features multiple plunge pools and a hammam. For history, Riad Kniza occupies an 18th-century building with outdoor pool and sauna. Eco-conscious travelers appreciate Riad Le Rihani, which combines sustainability with traditional decor. Families often choose Ryad Dyor for its boutique feel and plunge pool.
