| Beautiful boutique-type Riad |
The lady in the riad welcomed us with fresh pastries and delicious mint tea, which we enjoyed in the lounge that was filled with elegant Moroccan decor. To our surprise she gave us a tour of the entire place, ending it to our very own suite- Chiba. So we’ve seen some nice hotels in our days, but this just blew our minds in its cultivated beauty: Berber carpets, crafted mirrors, colorful textiles, dim lamps and even rose petals in the bathroom- every smallest detail was set up so carefully. We had our own spiral staircase leading to our private rooftop patio, where we could chill the day away…
Of course the hospitality didn’t end there. Not only did they cook for us a traditional tajine (slow-cooked stew served from a tajine pot) dinner upon our late night arrival, the next morning we could choose when and where to have our breakfast served.
Talking about the rooftop terrace- it definitely had the charm of its own- we knew we were right in the middle of medina, yet it was oh so peaceful. If you would ever get tired of getting lost in the souks, you could just climb up to the roof and forget about the street fuss. If that wasn’t magical enough, once we heard the Muezzin’s call for prayer, things got even more surreal…
