About us

“When I first went into what is today the Riad du Ciel, or Riad of the Sky, I was struck by the marvelous sky of Marrakech which gently illuminated the patio: the direct contact between earth and sky. As I built the upper floor which was missing, I thought sadly that the sky would be further away, distant, out of reach. But it wasn’t! The sky is still present, it enters the rooms on the upper floor; the sky envelops you from the terrace which overlooks the old town to the surrounding mountains and the magnificent snow-capped Atlas; you can reach it, almost touch it.”

The Riad du Ciel is a late-nineteenth-century Moroccan house that has been restored but keeps intact the features of a traditional riad: it has five comfortable rooms and offers its guests the style, the welcome and the elegance of a private home.

The Riad du Ciel is situated in the heart of Medina, or old town, close to the Medersa Ben Youssef and the Museum of Marrakech, about 8 minutes from Jemaa-el Fna Square. Access by car is easy.

As you cross the threshold you leave the lively, chaotic sounds of the Medina, and magically enter an atmosphere of calm, restful peace.

The ground floor opens onto a large courtyard or patio, full of light, with orange trees, a pool with comfortable seating and massaging water jets, and a relaxing outdoor seating area complete with cushions – a typical Arab “b’hou”.

On the patio there is a living room with fireplace and TV and the Chambre des Etoiles.

The entrance leads to the hammam and through an independent staircase directly to the Chambre Dorée. On the first floor there are three spacious rooms: the Chambre du Ciel and the Chambre du Soleil, which overlook the patio and the Chambre de la Musique, all with private terraces.

At the top of the Riad there is a large terrace, one of the highest in Marrakech, equipped with sun loungers and a patio, from which you can sunbathe, or relax and look at the horizon and the roofs of Marrakech framed by the Atlas mountains.
