Overview

The heart of Hotel Riad Omar, listed elsewhere simply as Riad Omar, is its central patio: a planted courtyard in a classic Moroccan building, with the rooms set round it. It's the arrangement that has kept Marrakech houses shaded and private for centuries.

Step outside and the busiest part of the city is close. The property describes Jemaa El Fna Square as a short walk away, which makes it easy to head out for the evening food stalls and come back to a quieter courtyard.

Highlights

  • Traditional building with a leafy central patio
  • Short walk to Jemaa El Fna Square
  • Traditional Moroccan decor
  • Easy base for exploring the Medina on foot

Location

According to the listing, the riad is in the Medina within a short walk of Jemaa El Fna. From the square, the souks run north, the Koutoubia Mosque stands to the west and the palaces of the southern Medina are reachable on foot.

No street address is given, so check the map on this page and ask the riad for directions.

Good to know

  • The old listing also mentions a five-minute drive to the Medina, which doesn't fit with the short walk to the square; use the map pin to confirm the location before booking.
