Historic Family-Owned Riad
Riad Kniza is an 18th-century building in the heart of Marrakesh's Medina, owned by the Bouskri family for over 250 years. Restored with traditional materials and Moroccan craftsmanship, it features three patios with stucco and tilework, one with a pool. The interiors include Berber rugs, antique furniture, and silk-sofas, reflecting a classic Marrakshi home.
Rooms with Moroccan Craft
The 11 rooms and suites showcase carved wooden furniture, air conditioning, and satellite TV. The Royal Suite Bahia is the size of a small house. All rooms include 24-hour room service, free international calls, and premium bedding. Bathrooms have rainfall showers, heated floors, and Diptyque toiletries.
Moroccan Dining Experience
The riad serves a six-dish Moroccan salad starter, pigeon pastilla, slow-cooked tagine, and couscous, followed by French-style desserts. Breakfast includes homemade pastries, yogurt, eggs, and pancakes on the rooftop terrace. Guests can dine in Moroccan salons or the courtyard with live Gnawa music.
Pool and Spa
The outdoor pool is set in a tiled patio. A sauna and steam bath are available. The rooftop terrace has loungers, cacti, and potted plants, offering views over the Medina.
