Talaa 12

Chic and modernist Marrakech riad in the heart of the Medina

This tranquil riad in the heart of the Medina is all crisp, contemporary cool. Instead of traditional decor and an old-Morocco vibe, light and airy Talaa 12 is a modernist take on the trad.

See & Do

See & Do
With the souks virtually on your doorstep, you’ll need to hone your haggling skills for a day’s bargain-hunting. Wander through the city’s Medina maze, with its kaleidoscope of colours, then hop into a horse-drawn calèche (Marrakech’s version of the gondola) for a ride around town.

For an interlude of cool and quiet, stroll through the Musée d’art Islamique, or the leafy Majorelle gardens. After a day on the town, you’ll be ready to slip back to base for a soothing massage in the hammam. Super-helpful staff will set you up with an out-of-town itinerary in the rugged Atlas Mountains or further afield.

Spa
You can enjoy a hammam and massage treatments at Talaa 12. For a day by the pool, staff will be pleased to arrange passes for nearby Nikki Beach club.
