This beautifully renovated town house can be located by following the signs on the alley opposite the Mouassine Mosque. Featuring exquisite woodwork and carved plasterwork, some of the interiors date back to the 16th century. The house operates as a cultural centre, restaurant and salon de thé (tearoom).

To the north of the Mouassine Mosque, past Café Arabe, is an excellent example of a fondouk – an old merchants’ hostel. The rooms on the ground floor are used as workshops and the ones upstairs are mainly used for storage. This particular fondouk had a brush with stardom when it featured in the 1998 film Hideous Kinky, as the hotel where actress Kate Winslet and her daughters are shown to be staying.
