Riad Noir DIvoire

Riad Noir d'Ivoire is situated directly in the heart of the medina of Marrakech. The owners, Jill Fechtmann, interior designer, who was based in France for about 10 years, renovating and furnishing properties for overseas investors and Jean Michel Jobit, designer notably in the perfume and drinks industry internationally.
Both fell totally in love with Morocco and especially the magical city of Marrakech, and they decided to open their luxurious Riad as a small "hotel de charme", offering top service in a discreet and elegant oriental setting.
Every aspect of comfort has been thought of including large comfortable beds, fine egyptian cotton bed linen, that you just melt into and nearly all the fabrics in the riad have been handwoven using interesting combinations such as linen and leather. Each suite or bedroom has an original style, incorporating furniture and objects in a range of materials from camel bone to sculpted metal.
For that extra touch the four suites have open fireplaces, ideal for chilly evenings or just for sheer pleasure. The restaurant and lounge bar open on to the main courtyard, where you can dine by candlelight or sip an original cocktail, while listening to jazz on the baby grand piano.
The menu is both innovative and creative, proposing both Moroccan and international cuisine for lunch or dinner and the chef is only too happy to organize a dinner "à deux" on the roof terrace with a spectacular view of the city.
In the "cosy" lounge, furnished in a more European style you will discover feather filled sofas and bookcases oozing with books waiting to read. A Hammam Beldi (traditional steam room) and massage room awaits guests where a full time beautician has the power to massage away all the stress of everyday life and offers personalized facials and treatments.
Jill and Jean Michel have only one aim in mind, to provide guests with impeccable service, ultimate comfort and to do everything possible to realize the dreams of clients. From the moment they arrive and have their luggage carried by "Peanuts" - the donkey - to the door of the Riad.
