Built in 1928 by the French to host their garrisons, Ouarzazate is a sand colored oasis displaying a Moroccan traditional architecture. Ouarzazate’s exceptional luminosity and breathtaking natural panoramas made the 7th art professionals fall for its charm. This city has become the set of famous movies such as Lawrence of Arabia, the Sheltering Sky and Gladiator as well as many series.

Located in the heart of the city of Ouarzazate, below the hotel district and only 100 meters from the Taourirt Kasbah, the charming Ouarzazate Le Riad hotel offers serenity and peacefulness. The Moroccan ambiance, the warm hospitality and the lovely courtyard make it the ideal place to take rest.
