This riad has an unprepossessing front door, but step through and you enter into a hotel of chic, understated luxury. Moody lamp and candlelight keep it darkly sexy at night, but Noir D'Ivoire is designed for all-hours comfort. 

The Cellar, the hotel’s open design wine cellar holds 3000 bottles, all which can be enjoyed by the glass with the all new Coravin and iFAVINE system.

There is a pool, hammam and even a gym to work out in. However, The Luxury Travel Bible skilfully eschews anything involving sweat gear in favour of shopping laps around the souk.
