Ambre Epices Medina Riad, a wellness hotel in Medina, welcomes guests to a former spice merchant's house renovated with respect for Moroccan tradition. The riad features hand-carved wooden doors, ornate arches, and a courtyard with a small plunge pool. Guests discover six elegant rooms named after the most important stages of the Spice Route.

Luxury Accommodations

Each of the eight bedrooms has a king-size bed, a private bathroom, and a bathtub or stone jacuzzi. Certain rooms feature soundproof walls, air conditioning, and a seating area with a fireplace. The double room includes executive lounge access, a wardrobe, and a safe deposit box.

Dining Experiences

The property offers breakfast in the open morning fresh air, with nearby restaurants like Restaurant les Terrasses and Le Comptoir du Pacha within 0.5 km. Guests can enjoy romantic candlelit dinners in the evening. Moroccan cuisine features a unique blend of spices, tastes, and flavors.

Wellness Facilities

The riad offers a hammam, massage and spa treatments, and an outdoor swimming pool. Guests can unwind in the solarium or on the terrace among friends. Wellness services include a curated selection of holistic therapies.

Proximity to Landmarks

Ambre Epices Medina Riad is located 1 km from Jemaa el-Fnaa and Medersa Ben Youssef. Marrakech-Menara Airport is accessible within a short walking distance. The resort is surrounded by narrow streets filled with cafes, souks, and traditional craft vendors.

“Here's my take. This renovated spice merchant's residence captures Moroccan warmth. Its location in the Medina offers easy access to souks, while the rooftop provides tranquility. The hotel's thematic rooms and personalized service make it a fine romantic pick.”
