Riad Kolos

In summary

Riad Kolos is a 400 m² gem located in the heart of the medina of Marrakech. Designed as a family home to receive loved ones and live to the Marrakech rhythm for a change of scenery, it consists of 7 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. Several years of renovation have made it possible to create this haven of softness with many atmospheres: a lovely patio with trees and a small pool, a heated swimming pool on the roof, very rare in Marrakech. This atypical riad perfectly combines the antique charm, a 70s inspired decoration and contemporary comfort.
