Located inside the ramparts of the Medina of Marrakesh, in the quiet and authentic district of Sidi Ben Slimane, where lived Averroes during the 12th century, Riad Irene is 15 minutes on foot from the Jemma El Fna square, 7 minutes from souks, the Medersa Ben Youssef and the Museum of Marrakesh and 10 minutes from the splendid Majorelle Gardens and Yves Saint-Laurent Museum. A taxi station and a car park outside of ramparts are 2 minutes on foot from it.

The riad (which means “house-garden”) consists of a patio with trees and plants where you can refresh yourself near the fountain. Around the patio, are situated the different rooms : 5 air-conditioned bedrooms including each one a confortable large bed for 2 persons and an adjacent bathroom, a b’ hou (Moroccan lounge), a dining room, a kitchen and an office.

The panoramic terrace allows you to admire the city and, far off, the Atlas mountains and invites you to relax with its sun-beds and its two lounges, one under the pergola, the other one under the Berber tent. Also you can have dinner there (up to 10 persons).
