Riad Dar Zaouia
The verdant riad residence, where every sense comes alive
Beneath the shade in Riad Zaouia’s verdant courtyard, surrounded by intricate colonnaded arches, the true meaning of an oasis takes form.
All of your senses are heightened here, mature trees providing not just shade from the warmth of the sun, but perches for birds to sing their hearts away at dawn and dusk. Fragrant carmine rose petals are scattered in the fountain. Tea, served on tables set atop intricately woven Berber rugs, tastes sweeter.
Expansive and sophisticated, Riad Zaouia slowly reveals layer upon layer of accomplished craftsmanship.
The riad’s elegant rooms are decorated with residential flair, spaces from the building’s past life as a religious school and private mansion subtly evolved and transformed. Each one is bright and peaceful, with tile floors, soft linens and carved wood ceilings.
Subtle touches of artistry are everywhere. Burnished gold lamps and vases find their dusky glow mirrored in unique sinks and gold hardware. Rich, azure-blue tiles turn bathrooms into true spaces of relaxation. All the way upstairs, on the private rooftop, you have the choice of soaking up the Moroccan sun or relaxing in a shady nook, screened by turquoise latticework.
Much like the city, the longer you stay, the more the magic of every last detail stays with you.
