Riad Jil & Spa

About this property

Riad Jil & Spa is a recently renovated 14-room riad at 101 derb El Makina, in the Diour Jdad quarter of the northern Medina. The Jardin Secret is 700 m away, the Majorelle Garden and the Yves Saint Laurent museum 1 km. It punches well above its three-star rating, guests on Booking score it 9.4/10, with staff and cleanliness rated near-perfect. The standout is wellness. On the ground floor, a lap pool runs through a courtyard garden shaded by a hundred-year-old olive tree and Balinese parasols. The spa takes up 100 m² on its own: a heated indoor pool, a hammam lined in golden marble with heated benches, a private massage room, a treatment room and a relaxation area. Add a hot tub and a 24-hour reception. Up on the roof, the restaurant sits under a carved moucharabieh ceiling, next to a reed-pergola terrace looking over the ochre rooftops of the Medina. The 14 rooms come in four categories, from 19 m² for the Deluxe doubles to 35 m² for Alia, the quadruple, with a double bed, extra beds and a freestanding bathtub. Each has its own look: a palm-tree fresco under a Moorish arch in Jil, a red and gold painted zouak ceiling and a private terrace in the two Douiria rooms, niches of Berber pottery in Thuraya. Air conditioning, a safe, a hairdryer and a private bathroom in every room, breakfast included. On request, the riad arranges the airport transfer (5 km, paid), a private dinner in the house or a private event.
