RIAD EL ZOHAR | MARRAKECH MEDINA

Located in the antique dealers’ district in the heart of the ancient Medina; this romantic 5 bedroom riad was carefully restored by a writer and artist to emphasise its many beautiful features. A subsequent upgrade has provided modern comforts, which include a large elongated plunge pool (notably larger than the pools in most riads of this size), a lovely roof terrace with superb views, attractive dining room and first floor sitting room.

The three rooms on the first floor open onto the balcony; the two on the ground floor onto the patio and swimming pool.
