Riad Assakina
Riad Assakina
A luxury haven in the heart of the Medina
Riad Assakina is a dream come true for its owners, Grant and Michele, once a dilapidated old riad in the Mellah, the ancient Jewish quarter of the Medina, Grant and Michele have now transformed it into a exquisite guesthouse, perfectly combining traditional Moroccan design and detail with modern comforts you would expect these days.
With only seven rooms and suites, all designed and furnished with impeccable attention to detail, Riad Assakina is a wonderful haven to retreat to after an exciting day exploring the Medina.
Surrounding the cool, spacious courtyard and pretty plunge pool area is the salon, dining room, two bedrooms and a ‘b’hous’ – a traditional Moroccan seating area. Upstairs are four more rooms, whilst the owners occupy the suite on the pretty roof terrace; the perfect place to lounge with a cool drink watching the sun set over the minarets of the ancient Medina.
