El Fenn Is a beautiful Riad with magical courtyards, fluffy fat cats lazing on velvet chairs, enthusiastic little turtles feeding on lettuce leaves in the day, and obediently sleeping in a group of 6, at sunset. The huge doors open into a mysterious magical space, cool and dark, an elegantly attired attendant mans the giant doors at all times. The rooms are delightfully decorated in earthy tones, super comfortable beds, fine linen. Each room is unique with its own ambience and character. All of them are lovely. We found one that resonated with us and settled in for a six day stay. The head concierge Belaid, is bright eyed and very organised. Exceptional service. He was on hand to attend to all our needs. The team is on top of suggestions and reservations for restaurants, spas, and tours. Yassine and Ayoub were fantastic with concierge services too. Ask for it and it shall be done. Mimi was very adorable and very efficient at all that we asked. Wafa is a smiling member of the housekeeping staff who collects your laundry and brings it back freshly ironed. Atif in the black and white tiled breakfast courtyard deserves a special mention for wonderful service and attitude. Chef Hassan learned to make masala chai just like we make at home and it was poured out with a flourish from a silver teapot. The rooftop bar is very special with Uber cool cocktails served with panaché. We enjoyed their in house spa and hamam. The location is simply unbeatable, El Fenn sits just within the ramparts of the walled Medina making it easily accessible. Tapers are lit and lanterns are gently glowing with soft flames as soon as it is dark. All the courtyards are very peaceful. Lie on magenta cushions in the middle courtyard, lounge and read a book on the giant deep gold divan in the first courtyard, sip your coffees and drinks in the third courtyard which also has a pool. If you’re going to Marrakech, El Fenn is a must.

“Such a great place to visit or stay.”

The expansion of this Riad is simply down to their successful recipe for style, service, quality and atmosphere.

The expansion of this Riad is simply down to their successful recipe for style, service, quality and atmosphere. The rooftop offers a great 'vibe' for visitors and guests alike with great views, fantastic food and drinks whilst guests have the privacy of the rest of the beautifully decorated Riad to themselves, for comfort and relaxation. The location is perfect and the service and hospitality is outstanding. Will always have a special place in our hearts and a huge thank you to Abdel in particular, for looking after us. We can't wait to go back!

We had a lovely time at the El Fenn. We spent a few days in this lovely and super-located Riad where attention to detail in extraordinary (don‘t miss to go to their boutique).

A special thanks goes to Jimmy, who looked after us like no other - thanks again Jimmy, you made our stay even more special.

“Jimmy’s service on the rooftop made it 5*****”

We came to El Fenn for a couple of drinks and ended up staying all day / all evening. Jimmy’s service was exceptional. The best we’ve ever had. The spicy margaritas were wonderful and the rooftop is the best in Marrakech! The decor is amazing and the sunnnnnn!
