Riad El Aaiun in Marrakech is a peaceful riad tucked away in the heart of the Medina, just a short walk from Jemaa el-Fna. Behind its traditional wooden doors lies a calm retreat filled with Moroccan charm. The interiors feature hand-carved plasterwork blending centuries-old craftsmanship with a homely sense of comfort. Around the central courtyard, palm trees and a fountain set a tranquil rhythm that feels far removed from the energy of the souks outside. Guests can relax on the rooftop with views over the city’s rooftops, enjoy breakfast under the orange trees or unwind in one of the cosy lounges with mint tea. The riad’s small team offers warm, personal service, arranging everything from local guides to traditional Moroccan dinners prepared in-house. It’s an ideal base for travellers who want to experience authentic Marrakech while returning each day to a sense of calm and serenity.
