Fodor's Expert Review Riad Kalaa

A gorgeous interior courtyard with a relaxing terrace and a small plunge pool, plus views of Rabat’s rooftops help make this 17th-century medina house one of the most beautiful riads in town. The opulent accommodations—complete with tadelakt walls, swaths of rich fabrics, and splendid wrought-iron accents—are full of Moroccan character but the end result is a clever balance, blending Moorish-Arabesque style with all that is clean, light, and unsmothering. If this riad is full, there are five others within this group to choose from.
