Dar Yanis, Traditional Moroccan riad and guest house in Rabat, Morocco.
Dar Yanis is a guest house set in a traditional Moroccan riad within Rabat's medina. The building centers on an open courtyard with a fountain and rooms arranged around it, following the classic layout where interior space opens to sky and water features anchor the design.
The building dates from an era when Rabat's medina served as a residential quarter and such riads formed the living center of family life. Over time the structure has been restored and adapted into a guest accommodation while maintaining its original architectural framework.
The rooms and courtyards display traditional Moroccan handicraft through carved woodwork, zellige tilework, and plasterwork that visitors encounter as they move through the spaces. These elements reflect how local artisans have shaped the visual identity of homes in the medina.
The property is located in the medina's heart with easy walking access to narrow streets and nearby sites of interest. Staff can provide guidance on local eating places, markets, and how to get around the city, as well as help arrange visits to attractions beyond the medina.
The house occasionally offers cooking classes where visitors can learn to prepare traditional Moroccan dishes using local ingredients and techniques. These sessions take place in the riad's kitchens and give guests hands-on experience with regional recipes and methods.
