Où dormir au Maroc : riads, hôtels et camps désertiques

Sara Amrani · 7 min · Practical

Des riads de médina aux camps désertiques, l’hébergement marocain fait partie de la destination elle-même.

A riad — a traditional house built around an interior courtyard — is the quintessential Moroccan stay, usually converted into a small guesthouse with a rooftop terrace and, often, a plunge pool.

In mountain towns like Imlil, simple guesthouses and mountain refuges replace riads, with shared dorms or basic private rooms suited to trekkers rather than luxury travellers.

Desert camps near Merzouga and Zagora range from simple shared Berber tents to luxury camps with private ensuite tents, restaurants and even pools — book ahead in high season.

On the coast, Essaouira and Taghazout mix riads with surf houses and boutique hotels, while Agadir leans toward larger beach resorts geared to families and longer stays.
