Riad Zazz

Eight rooms wrap a tiled courtyard at Riad Zazz, tucked down Derb Zenka Deyka off Riad Zitoun El Jadid in Marrakech's medina — a five-minute walk from the Jemaa el-Fnaa food stalls and a practical base for travellers wanting souk access without traffic noise.

A rooftop terrace overlooks the medina's satellite dishes and minarets, used for breakfast in cooler months and mint tea after dark. Rooms keep carved plasterwork and tadelakt walls rather than uniform hotel finishes.

Staff arrange airport pickup, since taxis rarely find the unmarked derb entrance alone.
