Marrakech is where Arabia and Africa meet, creating an amazingly vibrant mixture of cultures. Throbbing with life, the red city is set against the backdrop of the magnificent Atlas Mountains.

Timila means ring dove in the ancient Berber language of the Moroccan people, and the birds perch on the trees and plants of the roof terrace garden.  Riad Timila is an oasis of calm, which belies the fact that it is situated just five minutes from the carnival atmosphere of Djemaa el Fna, Marrakech’s main square and the hub of city life.

It is a magical place which floods the senses with extraordinary sights, sounds and smells, casting an unforgettable spell over all who visit. In the exotic and exciting heart of the old town of Marrakech you will find Riad Timila, a peaceful and romantic retreat from the hustle and bustle of the Medina.  The staffed riad sleeps up to twelve comfortably, and is available to rent on an exclusive basis.
