Riad Dar Touyir

Dar Touyir is a small traditional house elegantly preserving all its old-world charm. Its beauty-laden archways and refreshing fountain make it a place of remarkable authenticity. Its ideal location in the renowned district of Bab Doukala offers privileged access, just a 5-minute walk from the souks, 5 minutes from the ramparts and the new city, and 12 minutes from the famous Jemaa el Fna square. Transitioning from urban bustle to the tranquility of the cul-de-sac, visitors pass through a heavy studded door to access an unsuspected universe. Right from the entrance, an enchanting courtyard is revealed, adorned with a central fountain and surrounded by orange trees, offering a striking contrast with the outside hustle.

The spacious and welcoming lounges, arranged face to face, vie to offer hospitality during traditional tea rituals, while the b hou benches, a sort of alcove open to the courtyard, invite relaxation and contemplation.

Upstairs, sunlight dances through the columns and ironwork of the galleries, creating an incessant play of light that adorns the rooms. Each room is enhanced by these changing plays of light, offering a unique and enchanting atmosphere.

However, the pinnacle of this ‘riad’ is its terrace. It is a realm where the sun reigns supreme. In winter, it’s the perfect place to warm up under its beneficent rays, while in summer, it offers an ideal spot to relish the coolness of the sunset. Regardless of the season, the terrace becomes a paradise for an aperitif, also offering the opportunity for a relaxing nap under a tent, lulled by a gentle breeze.
