Accommodation

Übernachte in unserem NOSADE Riad und atme die mystische Geschichte von Marokkos lebendigster Stadt ein!

Unser Riad befindet sich in der Medina – der historischen Altstadt von Marrakesch – und ist wahrlich ein lebendiges Relikt der Geschichten aus Tausend und einer Nacht. Zu den ältesten Häusern der Stadt gehörend, findet sich noch immer in Teilen die ursprüngliche und beeindruckende Architektur des 19. Jahrhunderts. Es beeindruckt seine Bewohner mit originalen Fliesen sowie einem charmanten Brunnen und massiven Holzarbeiten im Innenhof.
Lebe zwischen alten Mauern und erlebe eine aufregende Magie, die vor über 150 Jahren von einer der vielen Frauen des Pacha von Marrakesch verbreitet wurde, die hier ihr exklusives, aber dennoch sehr privates Leben im Riad gelebt hat.

Neben einem sehr privaten Riad-Erlebnis gibt es ein geräumiges Dach für Yogaübungen im Freien und Platz zum Verweilen und Sonnenbäder sowie hervorragend leckeres, traditionelles Essen.
