About this property
Le Petit Riad, "The Little Courtyard" in French, is an immersive Moroccan experience. Inspired by Chefchaouen, the sapphire colored city, this is a tiny space with big IMPACT. Every meticulous detail will leave you wondering if somehow, magically, you ended up on a flight to the Mediterranean, instead of PIT. Nestled in a quiet alley literally steps from Butler Street and all Lawrenceville, the hottest hood in Pittsburgh, has to offer.
