Book the private chef dinner at least one night — guests consistently call it the highlight of the stay. You dine at a table beside the glass-walled kitchen watching the chef cook a Moroccan tasting menu

Why It Matters

Only 8 rooms on Tablet Hotels, with full-service amenities — private hammam, pool, fitness room, a private chef dinner under the stars, and one of the best sunset rooftops in Marrakech. It's a rare combination of genuine intimacy and real hotel infrastructure.

Riad 144 is a double-courtyard boutique riad in the Sidi Ben Slimane quarter of Marrakech's Medina — just north of the souks, tucked at the end of a narrow alley that makes you question your navigation skills. Get through the heavy front door, though, and you're in a serious design hotel: eight distinct rooms and suites mixing contemporary art, Moroccan antiques, and African accents across two patios, a plunge pool, and three rooftop terraces with 360° views over the Medina and the Atlas Mountains. The spa, pool, restaurant, and fitness room are all strictly for guests only — meaning the place stays genuinely quiet.
