Dar Sâad Marrakech

Riad in Marrakech - Dar Sâad Marrakech - Guest house in Marrakech close to Bab Doukkala in the Medina of Marrakech (Old town).

Near the bazaars of the Red City, Dar Saad is a magnificent traditional dwelling with a special charm all of its own. As soon as you cross the threshold of this riad you step into a haven of peace and quiet where each and every space has been designed to ensure levels of comfort to satisfy even the most demanding guests.

Close to the Dar el Bacha Palace, in Rue des Antiquaires, this luxury guesthouse is ideally located in a district that offers both easy access and security.

Halfway between an elegant «lounge» atmosphere and the exuberance of traditional Moroccan decor, the riad is both traditional and contemporary at the same time. It is decorated in warm shades and it is the clever lighting of the communal areas that imparts the bewitchingly intimate gentle glow to the atmosphere. The doors and ramps leading off the patio are made of carved hardwood and this is one of the features that gives Dar Saad its unique cachet.

This Marrakesh riad offers a choice of 5 spacious rooms, each one individually furnished in keeping with the traditional style favoured by aristocratic Moroccan families. Each room has its own private fully tiled bathroom with a shower or a bathtub.

On the ground floor there is a pretty patio, fresh, cool and serene, and leading off it are the different communal spaces of the riad. The sitting room with its open fireplace and exotic atmosphere is a comfortable place to relax and let your mind wander as you travel vast distances on mental voyages of discovery. The dining room is perfect for romantic dinners based on authentic Moroccan specialities. Hafida, our cook, will prepare your chosen dinner using fresh local ingredients on request: the choice is yours - tajines, vegetable salads, pastillas or homemade pastries…try them all !!
