Seven rooms in a traditional riad in the heart of the souks, a twisty three-minute stroll to the western side of Djemaa el Fna Square. This elegant space—owned by Italian friends and sumptuously renovated by an Italian designer—tones down the gaudiest of Moroccan clichés without sacrificing a sense of place.
