Recently restored, the Riad Al Madina is the perfect place for artists and guests who are looking for peace and relaxation.

Restaurants & Bars

There is a very agreeable sitting-room with a bar and a very good Moroccan restaurant, used also by non residents, for lunch and dinner. It is not served in a buffet style; therefore you have the possibility to choose your meal a la carte. All products are very carefully chosen so you can enjoy special luxurious dining in a musical atmosphere. In Spring and Autumn a chimney with a double fireplace warms the restaurant, and at the same time creates an intimate atmosphere. In each corner of the sitting-room, there are rare objects which have been collected by the owners. For breakfast, enjoy the charming inner courtyard setting or the restaurant.

Booking Ryad Al Madina with us

We lose sleep so you don’t.

We take every booking personally. Anything that doesn’t look right, anything that needs chasing — we’re the ones awake worrying about it, so you’re not.

01

Your money goes into trust

Not into our bank account. It sits with an independent trustee and is only released after you have travelled. If we stopped trading tomorrow it would still be there, and it would come back to you.

02

We book it all, and then check it

Flights, transfers, the room you actually chose, your lessons. Confirmed before you fly, not arranged when you land. We don’t book the cheapest transfer — drivers who turn up and speak English.

03

We call you before you go

Documents, visas, kit, anything you’re unsure about. A real conversation with the person who booked it, not an automated reminder.

04

We’re on WhatsApp the whole time you’re away

Any hour, any country. Flight moved, room not right, lessons cancelled for weather — one number, answered by someone who already knows your booking.

No obligation. We’ll come back with a full itinerary and a price.
