This is the experience of sleeping in a Riad in the Medina of Marrakech

In your trip to Marrakech, riding a Morocco, when looking for accommodation you have the opportunity to live in the most typical environment of the city by opting for the accommodation in a riad within the Medina.

Evidently Marrakech offers you great and excellent four and five star hotels, with a very good quality/price ratio, located in the French neighborhoods of Gueliz y Wintering, or in the area of Palm.

But, without a doubt, the best way to live the environment from a city as exotic as it is Marrakech is to choose stay in a riad.

The riad They are the equivalent of typical UK bed and breakfast, or an urban version of the rural houses or boutique hotels in Spain.

Located in the historic neighborhood of Marrakesh medina, are typical houses of said neighborhood that have been converted into a small hospitality establishment.

Although there are larger riads with exquisite services, they are actually small luxury hotels, a characteristic Marrakech riad It is a typical three-story house, with a central patio, which has four rooms.

Dar Taliwint, this is a riad in the Medina of Marrakech

As an example, in this regard I am going to talk to you about riad Dar Taliwint, where I had the opportunity to stay during my last stay in Marrakech, located very close to the Bahia Palace.

This riad offers a very careful decoration with the typical Moroccan style, without great luxuries, but with great taste, which is a great reflection of its excellent score in booking.com (9,6).

With only four rooms, two on each floor, it is worth highlighting the upper terrace, from where you can have panoramic views of the Medina and, on clear days, you can even see the Atlas Mountains, whose peaks are snow-covered for much of the year.

The central patio is usually the reception and gathering point of a typical riad.

In addition to living in a typical Moroccan house (yes, with decoration and level of service much higher than usual in such homes...), the other great characteristic of the riad is the very personalized treatment offered by the owners, very similar to that of the aforementioned rural houses.

Dominique, who settled in Marrakech more than many years ago, in French, or in perfect English, is continually attentive to his guests during their stay at the riad Dar Taliwint.

Before your arrival in Marrakech, it will offer you the service (absolutely essential...) of Taxi transfer to the Medina.

In this way, they will personally meet you at the parking lot where the taxi will leave you, and then walk with you through the streets of the medina to the riad, with luggage transportation included.

And the first thing he will do as soon as you arrive at the riad is offer you a typical mint tea to, in a pleasant chat, give you a broad vision of what is going to be your stay in Marrakech, with the best tips to enjoy it and be able to adapt to the peculiar atmosphere of that Moroccan city.

And then, every time you return to the riad, or during the pleasant and typical Moroccan breakfasts in the library room, you will once again have the opportunity to share with Dominique your experiences in visiting Marrakech,

Or also ask for advice on the various tourist activities to do in Marrakech, such as, for example, going to dinner at the typical Ali House, or hire a vehicle with a guarantee to take an excursion through the kasbahs route.

Between the more than 300 riad where you can stay in your trip to Marrakech, you have a wide variety of service and prices, which in practice have similar levels to those of the large hotels in the western neighborhoods.

In the case of riad Dar Taliwint, the price of the room starts at 75 euros, although in high season it exceeds 100 euros.

But, yes, if you choose to stay in a riad during your stay in Marrakech, you will have the full feeling of be living in the Medina, in the center of the historic city-
