Riad 58 Blu or Riad Ambre et Epices
Dec 30, 2012, 4:12 PM

I'm looking at these two riads as possible accommodation for my husband & I for a 6-night stay in Marrakech in March. I've read the reviews on TA which are excellent so I'm now trying to decide based on location. My question is - which is more central to the medina & the Jamaa El Fna?

Thank you very much for any advice anyone can give me.

Stick each of them into google and click on the 'maps' link.

Both are well located within the medina, the first north of the Mellah and the second at Bab Doukkala. If pushed for a preference I would say that Riad Ambre et Epices has a more pleasant and authentic walk to Djemma al Fna and is also much closer to Guilez, the new town, giving you the advantages of both districts.
