Riad Noir D'Ivoire

Storied Marrakech attracts visitors from throughout the world who come to experience the town’s history, rich cultural traditions, and renowned friendliness.  Discerning travellers opt to stay in a riad – the traditional courtyard houses in the medina, many of which have been luxuriously renovated.  Among the most talked about is Riad Noir D’Ivoire. An unusually spacious oasis in this bustling Medieval city, this discreet hotel has been created by a worldly Franco-English couple. Each of the nine guestrooms (seven with woodburning fireplaces) has an individual motif and is decorated with unique objets d’art. The three Master Suites have private terraces with Jacuzzis. The two spacious courtyards – one of which contains a large 10m pool with cascading waterfalls – are populated with pierced-steel lamps and lanterns. The Riad provides both intimate spaces for relaxing as well as an array of public areas for socialising and dining, with a restaurant serving sophisticated riffs on both North African classics and international cuisine. It has one of the best wine cellars in the city.
