ABOUT US

Your adventures in Morocco start right away in a typical Riad in Marrakech: at Riyad El Cadi. A tour through courtyards, staircases and corridors of seven traditional houses forming the Hotel Riyad El Cadi gives a good impression of the ancient and pure forms of traditional Moroccan architecture.

The Location

With Riyad El Cadi you will find a riad in Marrakech situated in the very heart of the Medina (Old Town). The riad has its doors at the end of three cul-de-sacs. Thanks to these three entrances and the very central location in a secure part of the old town, you can reach all destinations in the Medina within a very short time.

The Hosts

The El Cadi is a hotel with distinguishable rooms. All rooms are individually created and may answer your specific needs. We aim to serve our guests without their being aware of it – as if they stayed with friends. Our service is unobtrusive but always attentive.

The History

Herwig Bartels, a long life diplomat and German Ambassador to Morocco was the founder of the riad. Also, he was a connoisseur of the Arab world and a passionate collector of Islamic arts. Exemples of his collection are on display all over the riad.
