"A contemporary Riad in a fabulous location near the Saadian tombs"
Six En-Suite Guest Rooms
Located in the south of the Marrakesh medina in the Kasbah district, Riad Awa is ideally positioned next to the Royal Palace, the Saadian Tombs, and is situated near the Bahia and Badi Palaces and a short walking distance from the world famous Jemaa el Fnaa square.
The owners, Martine and Henri, will be delighted to welcome you to their Riad, where Moroccan craftsmanship has been reinterpreted in an uncluttered, minimalist and above all extremely contemporary design. The riad is decorated and furnished to a high standard throughout. The riad's six bedrooms each have their own individual style, each comes equipped with bathrobes, a hairdryer, toiletries, reversible air-conditioning and WiFi.
On the ground floor, you will be able to enjoy the Spa space composed of a beautiful hammam and massage room and the lovely patio with stunning glass wall opening to the dining room, where you will be able to savour the imaginative and tasty dishes of their cook. On the first floor, the open lounge will allow you to relax in front of the sculpted concrete chimney after a bustling day in the souks. And lastly, the terrace on two levels, which will allow you, depending on the brightness, to enjoy the solarium space or the small tents, giving an amazing view of the Atlas Mountains and the Storks.

"This was our first visit to Marrakech and I am so pleased we chose Riad Awa. Henri emailed before we arrived offering any assistance we might need. He arranged a car to pick us up from the airport and we had a wonderful meal at the Riad on our first night.
Breakfast is served every morning on the roof terrace at any time you want it. The food was all delicious and there is plenty of it. I especially enjoyed the proper English tea as I always miss a good cup of tea when travelling.
Marrakech is a wonderful city full of lovely people. We had a wonderful time and can't thank everyone at Riad Awa enough for making our stay very special."
Claire, East Sussex, UK
"We spent 5 nights in this delightful Riad. Very clean room, good value and possibly the best continental breakfast we have had in a long time. The staff were all very friendly with the owner Henri quite attentive and pleased to recommend good places to eat and visit. We would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this Riad, particularly to any first time visitors to Marrakesh."
Chris, Camberley, UK
"Our stay at Riad Awa was fantastic. The hotel is very good located, it's in the medina, but the street isn't too busy and noisy. But be prepared to wake up early, at sunrise there were a number of crowing roosters. The hotel is very tasteful decorated and the roof terrace is amazing. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It's a cozy and familiar atmosphere and it's easy to feel at home. On arrival day we had dinner at the hotel, the food was great, and the breakfast is really good too!"
Maja, Basel, Switzerland
"Had a lovely time at the Riad, my friend turned 30 and they had red roses put in the room which was lovely. The food was the best I ate whilst there. Loved the plunge pool, spent a couple of days around the pool so I came back very chilled out. Thanks again for everything."

"The free hip Marrakech App has proved amazing for our clients. It gives them confidence to navigate the medina knowing they can always find their way back our house, even with NO data roaming switched on. Further it locates many restaurants in Marrakech that our guests like (some of which give discounts to those with the App), and then helps them find tgheir way back to the riad easily. Further, they can also book excursions in or around Marrakech at short notice."
