history
Creating a haven of peace
Fifteen minutes from the heart of the imperial city, nestled in lush greenery, Riad Noumidya is much more than a guesthouse – it’s a family story, an invitation to travel, a promise of serenity.
Founded in 2019, the riad was born from a shared dream between two cultures. The father, originally from Belgium, and the mother, Moroccan at heart and soul, united their roots to create a place in their image: warm, authentic, and deeply human. Their passion for hospitality, their love for Morocco, and their attention to detail gave birth to this peaceful abode, where every stone tells a story.
The name “Noumidya” draws its inspiration from the rich history of North Africa. It evokes ancient Numidia, a proud and independent Berber kingdom, symbolizing a noble heritage and refined civilization. This choice of name is not insignificant: it reflects our attachment to our origins, to the land, and to the spirit of hospitality that has spanned the centuries.
At our house, family is at the center of everything. It's in this intimate and caring atmosphere that we welcome our guests, as if they were already part of our world.
Riad Noumidya is a haven of peace, a refuge far from the hustle and bustle, where one comes to recharge their batteries, reconnect with the essentials, and experience the sweetness of Moroccan life.
Hospitality isn't just a word here: it's our priority, our pride, our way of loving. Every detail, every smile, every scent of spice or orange blossom has been carefully designed to offer an unforgettable experience.
Welcome home. Welcome to Riad Noumidya.
