"The yoga with Steph was a highlight, with the early morning session on the terrace, both invigorating and life affirming, whilst the afternoon stretching sessions proved to be the perfect tonic after a day of haggling in the souks. Great food (I loved the post-yoga brunches), and Philippe and his team looked after us well, with great tips on what to do and where to go within Marrakech."

Riad Magellan
A riad is a traditional patrician town house built around a courtyard, the garden of which evokes paradise. Hotel Riad Magellan offers six twin-shared rooms and single rooms. The rooftop terrace of the venue also offers the guests a truly tranquil and peaceful oasis. It provides escapism from your everyday lives and the setting to truly relax. There are sun loungers, a covered terrace, and several private and open areas to unwind.
The whole riad is monochrome with natural colors to keep the space serene and peaceful. The owners have surrounded themselves with some of their own furniture collected from Europe and pieces made to their specification by local craftsmen. This results in a stylish modernist and Moroccan fusion throughout the house, which is inviting for indulgence and yoga.
With a 24-hour front desk, Hotel Riad Magellan is a four-minute walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa square and 400 meters from the traditional markets. It offers a free-access yoga studio, private yoga sessions, free Wi-Fi, a terrace with views of the Medina and a patio with a fountain.
With a Moroccan-style decor, all the air-conditioned rooms feature views of the patio and a bathroom with a shower. A Moroccan breakfast can be enjoyed every morning at Riad Magellan. Moroccan dishes are also served on request. Riad Magellan features a courtyard with a plunge pool.
