Why guests love itA newly engaged couple wanted somewhere child-free in the heart of Marrakech and found it at Riad Sumud. Breakfast came with gluten-free options that suited one of them; afternoons meant the rooftop pool and long stretches on the sun terrace with the city views below, and early evenings stayed quiet enough to talk. Dinner at the on-site restaurant saved going out after long days in the medina. Anyone wanting a buzzing bar on the roof will find the mood too hushed.
