Riad Djemanna

Riad Djemanna Overview

First Impressions

Walking through the narrow alleyways of the medina to find Riad Djemanna feels like a treasure hunt — and honestly, that’s half the charm. You’ll wind through derb el Halfaoui until you reach this beautifully restored traditional riad, and the moment you step inside, the chaos of Marrakech just melts away. The contrast is striking — from the bustling souks outside to this peaceful oasis with its classic courtyard and intricate tilework. The riad’s location in the heart of the medina puts you at the center of everything that makes this ancient city so captivating.

Location & Getting Around

This four-star riad sits right in the heart of the medina, which means you’re literally steps from everything that matters. You can walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa in about five minutes, and the souks are practically at your doorstep. The location score of 9.1 makes perfect sense — couples especially love being this central because you can explore on foot and duck back to the riad whenever the medina gets overwhelming. The proximity to major attractions combined with the peaceful retreat of the riad itself creates an ideal balance for travelers seeking authentic experiences.

The Room Experience

The rooms here capture that authentic Moroccan feel without sacrificing comfort or modern conveniences. You’ll notice the attention to traditional details — the carved wood, the colorful textiles, the way the light filters through the windows. Each room feels different, with its own character, but they all have that serene quality that makes you want to linger. The beds are genuinely comfortable, which isn’t always a given in traditional riads, and the thoughtful design ensures a restful stay.

Breakfast & Dining

Breakfast at Riad Djemanna is served in the central courtyard, and it’s one of the highlights of staying here. The spread includes fresh Moroccan breads, local honey, and seasonal fruits, with options for vegetarian, vegan, and halal preferences. Starting your day with mint tea while watching the morning light play across the courtyard tiles is an experience you won’t forget. There’s no full restaurant on-site, but with the medina’s incredible food scene right outside, you have endless dining options within moments of the riad.
