Hotel Dar Rehab, Traditional Moroccan riad in Rabat's medina, Morocco.
Hotel Dar Rehab is a traditional riad in Rabat's medina featuring carved wooden details, intricate stucco work, and hand-painted tile surfaces on walls and floors. The building follows the classic riad layout with a central courtyard surrounded by guest rooms and shared spaces.
The house was built in Rabat's medina following principles of Moroccan residential architecture passed down over centuries. It represents the continuity of these building traditions from its origins to its current use as a guest accommodation.
The riad displays Berber rugs, handcrafted lanterns, and local artwork throughout its rooms and courtyards. Guests encounter these everyday objects as living expressions of Moroccan craftsmanship and domestic life.
The hotel sits in the medina where narrow streets and limited vehicle access shape the way around it. The area is walkable but visitors should wear comfortable shoes and bring a map or guide to navigate the winding paths.
The courtyard design works by a proven principle: it absorbs heat and creates natural air flow, keeping the interior cool without modern air conditioning. This passive system lets guests stay comfortably even during warm months.
