Riad Shemsi
"After the heat and hubbub of the souks, a tranquil haven where authenticity and refinement meet..."
Stay at Riad Shemsi
Six En-suite Guest Rooms
Situated in the heart of the Royal Kasbah district, the beautiful and elegant Riad Shemsi has been created from an authentic traditional house. Today it stands as a haven of tranquility with large courtyard containing a substantial pool surrounded by traditional arabesque arches; antique and vintage tapis; palms and beautiful flowers; distinguished Marrekchi furnishings and stunning panoramic view of Marrakech.
The Riad Shemsi staff are warm, attentive, discrete and ever welcoming and are always on hand to ensure all your dreams come true.
The beautiful salon with its open fireplace is a wonderful place in which to savour the delights of the celebrated Shemsi cuisine and excellent Moroccan wines. Alternatively, take your evening meal on the atmospheric terrace with its subtle Moroccan lighting.
The six stunning chambers are all en-suite, revealing traditional coloured tadelakt plasterwork, finely worked mirrors and contemporary art.
Riad Shemsi is located just minutes from the Saadien Tombs and the Royal Palace, and within a short distance of the wonderful myriad Souks and Jemaa El Fna.
Regrettably Riad Shemsi is not suitable for children under the age of fourteen, unless part of a group that occupies the whole house, due to the unguarded pool and elevated terraces.
Base prices are in €Euro.: £Sterling, USD and Moroccan dirham rates will vary by exchange rate.
