Is a riad the same as a hotel?
Usually smaller, courtyard-centred, and inside residential lanes. Service level varies by listing.
Riads in the Marrakech Medina
A riad is a traditional house around a courtyard. In Marrakech that almost always means the Medina. You trade taxi-to-the-door convenience for rooftops and walking culture.
Authentic riads in and near the Medina: courtyards, rooftops and walkable souks. Verified stays with direct booking on TheMarrakech.

FAQ
Can I arrive late?
Often yes if you arrange a meeting point. GPS to the door is unreliable in the Medina.
