Riad Dar Ilham

( 5 stars , Marrakech , Morocco )

The hotel is a building which combines the charm of a traditional Riad and the charm of a villa amidst nature. Away from the glares of the streets, guests enter this property through an alley covered by a pergola, under a cascade of bougainvilleas, leading them to the entrance. At first sight, the architecture is the same as that of a kasbah, but as guests enter into this haven of peace, they are really entering the medina, but with the advantage of fresh air and open space. Opening out onto a beautiful patio full of orange trees, the Riad is faithful to its traditional structure where all the rooms face towards the fountain, the house's central point. The hotel offers an airport transfer service, babysitting service, a bar, beauty salon/hairdresser, a concierge service, conference facilities and an on-call doctor. With just 4 rooms in total, this intimate air-conditioned guesthouse also offers guests a lobby with 24-hour reception, a hotel safe, currency exchange facilities, a cloakroom, Wifi Internet access, a laundry service, library, car park and garage and a restaurant. There is also a games room, children's playground and bicycle hire service (fees apply).
