Hotel Riad Amalia (Marrakech, Morocco)

Hidden among the warren of streets to the south of the El Badii Palace, Riad Dubai is a small property offering traditional Moroccan hospitality and décor in a surprisingly tranquil atmosphere. The rooms are a rich and vibrant celebration of Moroccan design, with bold colours and antique furniture throughout. Each features en-suite bathroom, TV with satellite channels and Wi-Fi. Like many riad’s, Riad Dubai has a peaceful courtyard, and surrounding roof terrace, both of which are ideal places to sit back and enjoy peace and tranquillity in the bustling city. Riad Dubai is a small establishment, and meals tend to be more casual. All three are available, with the kitchen specialising in Moroccan cuisine. Weather permitting, meals are often taken on the one of the outside terraces. The El Baddi Palace is 0.8 miles walk from Riad Dubai, while the city’s renowned Jamaa El Fna Square is 1.7 miles to the north.
