A traditional guesthouse tucked away in the heart of the medina, between a zellige-tiled patio, a small indoor pool and a rooftop terrace — steps away from real Marrakchi life.
The soul of the medina, away from the tourist trail
Set in the popular Bab Ghmat neighbourhood, right in the heart of Marrakech's medina, Riad Davina offers a genuine change of scenery: lively alleyways where children and shopkeepers go about their day outside, and calm, serene stillness the moment you step through the door. The contrast between the modest façade and the interior courtyard — a zellige fountain, an orange tree, a small traditional pool — is that of every great Marrakchi riad.
Our hosts Mohssine, Hayat and Abde welcome you with personal attention: advice on places to visit, carefully kept rooms, and a generous breakfast prepared every morning. Six rooms decorated in traditional Moroccan style, staff who speak Arabic, French, English and Spanish, and an address 15-20 minutes' walk from Jemaa el-Fna square.
The riad is located at Derb Hmida Lajaaj 3, Baba Ghmat, in the heart of Marrakech's medina, about 1.2 km (15-20 minutes on foot) from Jemaa el-Fna square and 1 km from the Bahia Palace and the souks.
Check-in is between 2:00 PM and 8:00 PM, check-out between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM. The front desk remains available 24/7 for any question or late arrival.
