I just returned from a week spent at this riad and can't say enough good things about it. The name means "riad of the artist" and the decor is fittingly beautiful, with interesting, quirky art displays and lovely touches throughout - vases of fresh roses, candelabra they light at night, luxurious comfortable furniture, and the open courtyards with trees, fountains,...

We have stayed three days at Riad el Fenn and loved the setting of this riad in the Medina, the beautiful view to the Atlas mountain chain from the roof terrace and the exceptional friendliness of the staff. Breakfast, which was served on that terrace was wonderful featuring delicious pastries and a special kind of hot oatmeal that had perfect... More

My boyfriend and I spent a week at the Riad el Fenn in September 2007. I cannot speak highly enough of the el Fenn, with its beautifully tranquil ambience, exquisite decor and wonderfully attentive staff. Breakfast was superb and offered great choice, afternoon tea and freshly baked cakes were provided each afternoon within the main courtyard. Whilst we ate at... More

This is the first time I have ever left a review post a holiday. I just felt I could not pass up this opportunity to tell others about how superb this riad is. I have never stayed in anything like it before and I have travelled far and wide. We stayed in Room 19 which only opened recently. It has... More

I have just returned from my honeymoon in Morocco where we stayed at Riad El Fenn for part of our trip, I have to say I felt that the hotel was one of the best I have ever stayed at and the perfect oasis in hectic Marrakech. We arrived in Marrakech in the second week of our trip around Morocco... More

Chic - understated - elegant and blissfully quiet. Filled with interesting other guests, incredible art, and with a "roll with it" vibe. Amazing hammam experience with rosewater and orange juice at the end (drizzled over your head)! New area with pool fantastic. Yogurt at breakfast absolutely delicious. Might not suit type-A personalities or small children who need to be entertained.

Just back from four nights staying at Riad El Fenn. After trawling the Conde Nast Traveller awards and cross referencing against trip advisor and hotel websites, we plumped for El Fenn. Walking down the narrow side street from where the taxi drops you off, and into the riad from the anonymous side door, you step into another world. You are... More

Excuse the cheasey title but this place is simply the best place I've ever had the pleasure of staying at (and I've stayed at some pretty good hotels and riads too). If you're staying in Marrakech, I whole heartedly recommend staying here. El Fenn boasts beautiful rooms and decor, great, attentive service level, excellent facilities including pools, restaurants, massage rooms,... More

My partner and I stayed at Riad el Fenn in June2007 for 3 nights and it was the most amazing place. We were so surprised by the riad and Marrakech itself. Totally different culture and as we approached the riad down a dusty little lane and approached the huge door, we didn't know what to expect. But the riad opened... More
