Getting here
A house of light, hidden at the end of a derb.
Dar Nour el Houda stands in Kaat Benahid, the oldest quarter of the Marrakech medina, a few steps from the Medersa Ben Youssef. Cars come no closer than Place du Mokef — from there, someone from the house walks you in and carries your bags through the derb to the door.
The essentials
- Car access via Place du Mokef
- Guarded parking nearby
- Bags carried through the derb
- Airport 20 minutes away

Finding your way
Kaat Benahid, the oldest quarter of the medina.
The house stands a few steps from the Medersa Ben Youssef, the restaurant Le Foundouk and the Perfume Museum, 300 metres away. The derb gives nothing away — that is its whole charm. Once you have settled in, everything is on foot: a ten-minute walk to the Place des Épices, then Jemaa el-Fna just beyond it.
The landmarks
- Medersa Ben Youssef a few steps
- Le Foundouk — restaurant a few steps
- Perfume Museum 300 m
- Place des Épices 10 min on foot
- Jemaa el-Fna just beyond
