Overview
Serene scenes dominate at this stylish city sanctuary, which proves Pinterest dreams can become a reality. Every corner is a feast for the eyes, with striped daybeds, Berber bedspreads, zellige tiles and ornate archways sure to enchant interior enthusiasts. After a day of sensory stimulation in the Medina, the glistening pool and botanically blessed central courtyard invites you to an oasis of peace and tranquility. A traditional breakfast and lunch is served on the rooftop – boasting some of the best cityscape views. All of this (plus faultlessly friendly service) for an unbelievably low room rate

Parent to Tiny Travellers aged 2 and 9
We stayed in the Naila suite, one of the biggest rooms available. The kids loved the tub in the large, green-tiled bathroom, and splashing in the pool after a long day of sightseeing. The vibe manages to be both tranquil and incredibly welcoming to children and whilst the location is super central it feels a world away
