Riad Tiwaline

A different side of the city comes to life at Tiwaline, perhaps the most surprising riad in the collection.

Enter a world all its own, where influences from across Africa seamlessly blend \n with those from the Berber culture that has long flourished in Morocco’s mountains. Floor after floor, ascending higher than other riad terraces even reach, dark, \n boldly carved cedar and grounding earth tones envelop you into a serene, \n almost otherworldly atmosphere.

The artistry is as rich as the welcome is warm. Eye-catching geometric designs adorn the woodwork of the columns of the courtyard, ceilings intricately blend carvings and colour, and intriguing works from indigenous African artists are placed to catch your eye around every bend in a staircase.

Ascend all the way to the rooftop to be awed by wrap-around vistas of the city, the Atlas Mountains ever present as you unwind in the shade on the patio. In the cosy library, an invitation awaits to browse through a selection of books that unveil the secrets of the city and region just seen from above.

Rooms, spacious yet snug, masterfully use mirrors to draw in light while keeping the colours subtle and atmosphere calm. Shielded from the sun by heavy wooden shutters, they offer the perfect shelter during hot summer days.

Come autumn, thick hand-woven carpets and a real fire give the riad new life as the seasons subtly start to change.
