Ryad Dyor

Ryad Dyor occupies the Sidi Ben Slimane quarter of the Medina with accommodation distributed across seven distinct room categories: Berber Superior, Nour Deluxe, Sabba Deluxe, Ennafora Junior Suite, Arab Superior Junior Suite, Azro Deluxe Junior Suite, and the Basha Deluxe Suite. The naming hierarchy announces the range of decorative registers the building deploys, each category drawing from a different thread of Moroccan architectural and cultural heritage while maintaining the coherence of a property conceived as a whole. A swimming pool, hammam, and on-site spa complete the wellness offer. The restaurant serves local home-cooked cuisine, the domestic register of the kitchen corresponding to the residential character of the riad's position in a largely non-tourist section of the Medina. Landscaped courtyards and a panoramic terrace complete the outdoor spaces. The avant-garde design direction applied to the traditional riad building type produces an interior environment that is simultaneously rooted in Moroccan architectural precedent and oriented toward a contemporary hospitality aesthetic, the combination reflecting the curatorial sensibility of the project that shaped the house's current identity The property's location in the Sidi Ben Slimane quarter of the Medina places it within the old city's fabric without the tourist-density that surrounds the main square and the principal souks, a positioning that the home-cooked kitchen and the residential scale of the courtyard life at Ryad Dyor reflects and makes habitable for the duration of a complete stay.
