The hot new address in Marrakech: Riad Anjar

Marrakech: only 5 minutes from place Jemaa EL Fna, in a decor that perfectly combines modernity and tradition, discover an oasis of friendly peace: welcome to the Riad Anjar.

A guest house from the thousand and one nights at the heart of the Red City


It’s the latest adventure of Jean-Claude Antoun, founder of New Hôtel. Bringing to mind the Thousand and One Nights, in a mix of Andalusian and Moorish styles, modernity and tradition intermingle in harmony: the delightful rooms feature the high-tech equipment while tadelakt bathrooms are in the pure Moroccan tradition. The decoration is inspired by evocative names: Anouar – “lights” room in Arabic – warm hues with a mix or red and orange, Ahlam-"dreams" room – with more toned down colors, Ayat-“miracles” room, featuring violet and gold prints. The Afia - "get well" room with its four-poster bed and a universe of romance in light and relaxing colors, is very conducive for a stay as a twosome. "Last but not least", the Amani – “wishes” room is dominated by a palette of mauve hues.

A haven for all your whims

As a couple, between friends or with family, the Riad Anjar is a very special place, which can be entirely rented privately. Thus you can ask the cooking staff to produce your culinary whims, to be savored in the Moorish dining room or taste authentic Moroccan dishes on the terrace. From the Riad you can take off on many excursions, and they offer free transportation to and from the airport. The dream is very close to becoming true...
