Dar Les Cigognes is a boutique riad in the Medina, close to Jemaa el-Fna, that presents as a luxurious haven. It is classed as a five-star luxury property, and the page gives a guest rating of 9.0 from 87 reviews. The riad lists a spa offering body scrubs, wraps, massage and aromatherapy, a hot tub, a rooftop terrace, a garden and a Roof Terrace restaurant serving Moroccan cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner with al fresco seating. Rooms are individually furnished, with air conditioning, bathrobes, premium Egyptian cotton and hypoallergenic bedding, Select Comfort beds, designer toiletries and showers, and a suite is among the room types. Free Wi-Fi is fast, listed at 250 megabits and above, and there is 24-hour room service, a 24-hour front desk, a concierge, a hair salon and luggage storage. Airport shuttle and limo service are available, and cooked-to-order breakfast is a surcharge item. The page does not list a pool, so this is a riad for atmosphere, treatments and the roof terrace rather than swimming.
Who it suits
Couples and travelers who want an intimate stay with a spa and a good roof terrace, and who do not need a pool. The riad is pet-friendly, which is rare among Medina riads, and welcomes children, with childcare for a fee, free infant beds and free cribs on request. Extra beds carry a nightly charge, so ask about family arrangements before booking.
Location notes
The page places the riad in the Medina close to Jemaa el-Fna and lists the Majorelle Garden as a nearby attraction, without giving walking times, so confirm your route with the hotel. As with most riads, you walk the final stretch through narrow lanes, and the staff can meet you at a drop-off point with a luggage porter if you tell them your arrival time. Airport and train station transfers are available for a surcharge.
Practical notes
Check-in is from two in the afternoon until midnight, with contactless check-in available, and guests must contact the property with arrival details before travel. Checkout is before noon, with contactless checkout available. Smoking is not allowed in the premises. Parking is available for a surcharge. Because the page offers limited detail about room sizes and layout, ask the riad which room faces the courtyard, whether it has a bathtub and how close it is to the roof terrace.
If the pool matters, compare with Riad Kheirredine or Les Jardins de la Medina on this site. For a quiet base with a spa treatment on arrival and a rooftop dinner, this is a solid choice in the luxury riad category.
