Overview
Riad Le Pèlerin is a recently renovated property that pays tribute to the Berber people with a preserved historical Moroccan design. Nestled at the edge of the ancient Medina, it's an ideal starting point for your Marrakesh experience, putting you within a 15-minute walk of the bustling market square, Jemaa El-Fna. Other sites are also within walking distance, including the Mederssa Ben Youssef, which is a 10-minute stroll, and Koutoubia, a 12th-century mosque, about 20 minutes away.
The Riad's seven rooms, each named after a Moroccan Berber Village, provide an immersive experience of an ancient world. They're meticulously decorated with furniture and carpets sourced from local manufacturers, transporting you to the elegance of Morocco. Each room is equipped with a shower, air-conditioning, heating, a sitting area, and a desk. From the double rooms to the king suite, each offers a unique blend of coziness and authenticity. Toiletries with a unique perfume, Les Fleurs d'Orange, are provided in refillable packaging, reflecting the Riad's commitment to reducing plastic use.
Riad Le Pèlerin isn't just a place to rest—it's a culinary delight as well. It embraces the Slow Food philosophy, offering fresh and healthy food prepared daily by Rachida, their chef. She visits the local market every morning to buy the freshest produce, which she uses to prepare traditional Moroccan dishes with a modern touch. The Riad also offers private treatments in your room with Zeina Spa or a Hammam experience at Riad Nyla, a close neighbor. Whether you're savoring a meal on the terrace, unwinding in the lounge, or indulging in a spa treatment, you're bound to find a deep connection with yourself at Riad Le Pèlerin.
