the Arabic word meaning dignity, is one of our smaller double rooms but neverthless beautifully proportioned with a spacious, handcrafted and highly decorative bathroom. A zowwaq painted and hand sculpted ‘muqarbas’ – a traditional, geometric patterned bedhead – along with a canopy fashioned from desert silk, muslin and ‘shwisiyyaat’ – hanging tassels – brings a touch of romance and theatre to this charming room. Antique carpets and velvet chairs complete the luxurious feel.
The large bathroom, from its handpainted, mirrored feature wall to the sumptuousness of the hand crafted bath made from maillechort or nickel silver and the separate domed shower, creates the perfect environment in which to cleanse and revitalise.
Room size: 17 sq metres
