Tucked within the labyrinthine folds of the Medina, the 14-room riad hotel IZZA has quickly become one of the city’s most talked-about addresses – recently awarded a Michelin Key within a year of opening and already attracting a loyal following of travellers who like their luxury with an artistic edge.

Now, Square Mile has teamed up with IZZA to offer one reader the chance to win a three-night stay for two, including flights – a prize worth £1,500.

Behind an unassuming doorway lies a £5m art collection, three serene courtyards and not one but two shaded pools. The mood is part 1970s bohemia, part contemporary gallery – inspired by the spirit of Bill Willis and Morocco’s freewheeling creative heyday, when the likes of Yves Saint Laurent and Grace Jones drifted through the city in search of colour and calm.

Each of the hotel’s rooms is individually designed and named after figures from Morocco’s countercultural past. Expect zellige tilework, tadelakt walls and hand-crafted arabesque detailing, offset by a modern sensibility that stops short of nostalgia. No two spaces are alike, but all feel rooted in place.

Up top, Noujoum – the panoramic rooftop restaurant and bar – has quickly made its mark, landing on Condé Nast’s Best Restaurants list within a year of launch. Here, Moroccan ingredients are treated with imagination and respect, served against a backdrop of terracotta rooftops and distant Atlas peaks.

There’s also a library, tea salon, spa and gym – though the real luxury might simply be the hush of the courtyards, where the noise of the Medina dissolves into birdsong and trickling water.
