After 4 years of renovation, our company NOUVELLES ORIGINES started our first Riad in 2006. We called it Riad SABA. Today we run 3 properties. We are an international team and we love our work. We also like art, decoration, travel, music and food. We know Marrakech and Morocco very good and we like to give the best insider tips to our guests. We have travelled extensively in the country and outside, so we know what special travelers want and appreciate. We give you tips about the best restaurants in town as well as trendy shops where you can buy rugs, leather goods, silverware and crockery of all shapes and sizes. We help you find the best city guides to lead you in the souk labyrinths. Marrakech is a fascinating tourist city with more than 1000 years of history, we advice you which museums and monuments to visit. What type of excursions to make. Marrakech is also known as the red city because of its ramparts of beaten clay which were built in 1066. It has a wonder climate with shimmering white snowy winters and warm summers. The city combines both tradition and modernity. It is divided into the Medina which is the old fortified city and a the modern city nearby called Gueliz.

Property info

The Riad Saba Hotel is a guest house which consists of two traditional Moroccan Riads. A Riad is a traditional Moroccan house restored and converted to a hotel or a guesthouse. Our two Riad houses are joined together by a large door. One house is centered around a traditional fountain and the other one around a swimming pool. All our rooms are individually styled with antiques, tadelakt (a traditional and natural way of painting walls) and beautiful moroccan textiles. We have put our skills into making sure that you enjoy every single day of your stay by us. Our rooms are created to give you a little time away from the routine of your everyday life. Each room has its own distinct personality and decor. All our rooms are with reverrsible air conditionning + heating and are situated on the first floor except for two: Pasha (in the fountain riad) and Mandarine (in the swimming pool riad). Standard rooms have between 20 to 22 m2 while Premium rooms have between 25 to 28m2. Premium rooms have each a sitting area. All rooms have private bathroom amenities. We have also two large terraces where our guests can have breakfast, lunch or just relax. Riad Saba is the perfect place for you
