Karawan Riad

Seven suites in a former harem-palace, each opening onto a private terrace, is a decent argument for staying in the Andalous Quarter. This Michelin Key riad sits far enough from the medina's tourist drag that you can actually hear yourself think, which is easier when you're reclining among silk brocade and hand-painted calligraphy. The hammam, the French-Fassi restaurant, and a courtyard threaded with tiny water channels are all waiting when the room finally lets you go.
