RIAD SANAA ROSE

Nestled in the heart of the medina, this 700-year-old riad, superbly renovated, is a haven of calm. Zoubida and her daughter, two adorable Moroccans, will do their utmost to ensure that your stay goes off without a hitch. As luck would have it, you'll meet the owners, a friendly French couple, Nadya and David, and their charming granddaughter, Sanaa Rose, after whom the riad is named. All four rooms are equally elegant, especially the spacious upstairs doubles. From the terrace, there's a beautiful view of the Merinid tombs.
