It is certainly invaluable that this lodging has eco-friendly practices. The Riad Alkemia seeks to contribute to the reduction of the carbon footprint and they see themselves as environmentalists.

Actions such as buying organic detergents, ingredients for meals from local farms in the city, and encouraging guests to donate clothes they do not want to use, ensuring that they are delivered to those who really need them are some of the actions that are carried out here.
