Welcome home.
An 18th-century house in the heart of the medina.
Old walls, deep quiet, genuine care.
There is an old Arabic word for the way a guest is received: dyafa.
Born in the desert, where taking in a weary traveler was a sacred duty, it lives on in Moroccan life as a point of honor. When you cross our threshold you are not a customer to be attended to, but a guest to be cared for: met with a hot glass of tea, a room prepared with devotion, and the ease of knowing you are held by a house that takes real pride in your comfort.
Our philosophy →Dinners
A menu by Jacqueline and Zahra, served in the courtyard.
Three courses from the morning’s market. Curated together, cooked by Zahra, set by Jacqueline. Reserve with Zahra on WhatsApp. And some evenings, the courtyard hosts the Table, a longer dinner open to everyone.

Zahra was super helpful, even with odd requests — my friend was sick and she made us some rice from the kitchen.
A note before you book
A house with three centuries in its walls.
Come as you would come to a home — for the quiet, the courtyards open to the sky, the table set with care. The plaster is soft with age and the doors are heavy; the house is lived-in, and held by the people who live in it. You will feel it the moment you cross the threshold.
