Overview
Mouassine is one of the Medina's more rewarding quarters to explore, with a historic fountain, a 16th-century mosque and the small Mouassine Museum, set in a restored merchant's house. Riad Bkan Marrakech, also written as Bkan Riad Marrakech, is about four minutes' walk from that museum.
The riad is traditionally decorated, and its rooms are air-conditioned, a welcome retreat after an afternoon in the souks.
Highlights
- About a four-minute walk from the Mouassine Museum, according to the property
- Air-conditioned rooms
- Traditional Moroccan decor
- Souks and major sights within walking distance
Location
Mouassine lies north-west of Jemaa el-Fna, between the main souks and the quieter residential lanes. From the riad, Le Jardin Secret and the souk streets are close, and the square is reachable on foot.
No address is listed, so check the map on this page and ask the riad for directions.
Good to know
- Some Mouassine lanes are only wide enough for pedestrians and handcarts, so plan to be met if you're arriving with heavy bags.
