About the neighborhood

Medina and Kasbah

Ideal for: the charm of a riad, the atmosphere of the old town, walks through the lanes and discovering the heritage.

Why choose the medina and the Kasbah?

  • Old-town atmosphere and charming riads
  • Close to the Kasbah of the Udayas and its gardens
  • Kasbah and medina side by side, to discover on the same day
  • Shops, crafts and a covered souk
  • A more local experience than in a large hotel

Good to know

The lanes are narrow and parking is limited: it is not the best choice if you arrive heavily loaded or if you want large shared spaces. On the other hand, it is probably the most evocative area for a first heritage visit.
