A 5-bedroom Riad in the heart of the authentic Bab Taghzout district with a small pool, spa and hammam area, and a team that will treat you like family.
Five bedrooms around a courtyard, twelve beds in all, and once your group is inside the place is yours — which is why it fills with families, birthdays and weekends away rather than couples passing through. The kitchen is what brings people back: Fouzia cooks couscous, tagines, seffa, beef with prunes, and guests write about her by name more often than they write about the rooms. Downstairs there is a hammam and a massage room, so the ritual is a staircase away rather than a taxi ride. Someone is on the door through the night. And the practical detail that matters more than it should in the medina — a car park and a taxi rank are a minute away on foot, the souks five, Jemaa el-Fna fifteen.
The signature
Five bedrooms, twelve beds and a courtyard nobody else walks through — the house is let as one, never room by room.

02
Both are upstairs in the riad, so the oldest ritual in the city is a staircase away rather than an appointment across town.

Rare for the medina: a car park and a taxi rank one minute away on foot, the souks five, Jemaa el-Fna fifteen.
2 guests · 1 double bed
Three of the five bedrooms sleep two, in a double bed — one opening onto the courtyard, one in the body of the house, one upstairs by the terrace where breakfast is served.

3 guests · 1 double bed and 1 single bed
The other two sleep three, with a double and a single bed — the rooms families take, and the reason the house holds twelve rather than ten.

“Nous avons séjourné 4 nuits dans ce magnifique riad au cœur de la médina avec un groupe de 12 personnes, et tout a été parfait.”
“Un immense bravo à Fouzia, la cuisinière, qui nous a régalés tout au long du séjour : couscous, salades marocaines, bœuf aux pruneaux, seffa au poulet…”
“Nous avons eu la chance de privatiser l’ensemble du riad. Idéalement situé à quelques minutes à pied de la place Jemaa el-Fna et des souks, tout en étant très proche d’un parking.”
No — Riad Doroob is let as a whole house. All five bedrooms come together, for groups of up to twelve, which is why the courtyard, terrace, hammam and massage room are yours alone for the stay.
Check-in is from 3:00 PM and check-out is before 11:00 AM. Someone is on the door through the night, so a late arrival can be arranged in advance.
Breakfast is included and made in the house. Dinner is cooked on request — tell the team the day before and Fouzia will plan around it.
A car park and a taxi rank are a minute away on foot — unusual for a riad this deep in the medina. The souks are five minutes away and Jemaa el-Fna about fifteen, walking. Airport transfers and day trips can be arranged for the group.
Worth knowing before you arrive, especially with children: the courtyard pool is not fenced or gated, the house is built around stairs, and there are exterior security cameras at the entrance. The riad is not currently fitted with a smoke detector or a carbon-monoxide detector.
