Detailed Review
Riad Meriem is (in his own words) ’a labour of love’ for the New York designer Thomas Hays. He has created it with the art lover in mind, with a fusion of oriental textiles and exquisite paintings plus his own Fine Art Photography. This exclusive boutique hotel has been entirely crafted by Marrakechi artisans to ensure that it retains its authenticity whilst using the talents of the best local craftsmen.
The patio lounge is a favorite for guests enjoying evening drinks by candlelight, with a romantic view of the oriental plunge pool overlooked by stunning bougainvillea and palm trees. In the Salon and Chimney Lounge, guest can enjoy a romantic dinner or relax next to an open fire.
The Terrace also offers the experience of sunbathing and lounging in a spacious and surprisingly peaceful environment surrounded by bougainvillea, olive trees, pomegranite bushes and jasmine with a view of the Koutoubia and the Atlas mountains. Many of our guests choose the Terrace to enjoy wonderful breakfasts as the sun rises over the Atlas mountains, midday lunches and for eating some of the finest Moroccan dinners by candlelight, a truly unforgettable experience.
The Verandas provide ideal locations for the guests to read, relax, or have a drink with a view over the oriental plunge pool framed by the bougainvillea and jasmine climbing up the courtyard walls.
