“An Incredible Experience at the Riad Dar Najat”
While Marrakech, Morocco is already such a beautiful and culturally rich city, to have a Riad treat you as if you were there own only makes the experience that much more incredible. Upon arriving at the Riad Dar Najat via there own car service, we were greeted with smiles and enthusiasm by family and friends eager to provide us with the best time of our life.
It was a long trip to Morocco, and all we could think about was how hungry we were when we arrived, without a clue of what we would be served (I was travelling with my 20 year old brother, I am 23---his review is below). To our surprise, it happened to be the best meal of my life, hands down. You can see my review of the Dar Najat Kitchen here: (http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g293734-d2460020-r125007371-Dar_Najat_s_Kitchen-Marrakech_Marrakech_Tensift_El_Haouz_Region.html) After having a great meal with all the courses to fill you up including wine and beer, we chatted it up with the Olivier and his workforce (basically his family). They were so eager to show us the time of our life, as they could tell we had never been to such a country. We were in AFRICA, and were ready to experience the joys of a foreign culture.
As night came, we were brought to our room, which was very nice. It was comfortable, had all the amenities and was very well decorated thanks to some very talented local artists :) In the morning, yet again we were surprised to walk up to a beautiful breakfast with fresh bread, crepes/pancakes, pastries, omelettes, coffee and fresh orange juice. Yes we were satisfied. We decided to take the first couple of days to explore the city ourselves but then realized that we needed some guidance in deciding where to visit around the area. The Riad Dar Najat family had all of the information we needed.
Not only did they bring us around Marrakech to see local products being made like Carpets and Rugs and Leather, we were also put in touch with another friend/driver of theirs that took us on a day trip to the Atlas Mountains, where we hiked and drank mint tea under a waterfall. It was complete serenity. I should have mentioned this prior, but mint tea is their staple welcoming offering, and it is quite delicious. You will be offered it everywhere, and please drink it, you wont regret it.
The next day they took us on a day trip to their other Riad Bab Essaouira in the beach town of Essaouira. We got there on a beautiful day, ate fresh fish on the beach, and then visited the Riad to meet the artist of all of there wonderful artwork. We sat on the roof overlooking the ocean drinking mint tea. We also visited some local wood shops and made some great purchases to bring home to our friends and family.
Let me add that we tried some other restaurants around the area, very prestigious restaurants with high prices....the food did not amount to anything that the Dar Najat's kitchen provided us. Le Marrakechi was the place we went, and the meat was dry, the portions small and the bill HIGH. So please don't hesitate to trust the food at Riad Dar Najat, it truly was the best meal. We requested the same meal on our final night, and it was as delicious as the first. You'll also find that the chef is a wonderful young lady just as eager to please us with her delicious recipes.
Every employee was there for us whenever we needed them. It was such a great trip, and if we went back, we would surely stay with the Dar Najat family again. THANK YOU RIAD DAR NAJAT, FOR SUCH A GREAT EXPERIENCE.

“Very friendly and beautiful riad”
The owner was very nice and welcoming and had drinks up with us in their seating area when we arrived with a very beautiful view of Marrakech. We had quite an ordeal finding their location and parking lot. Better directions for visitors would be useful (although I suspect this is the case for any riad in Marrakech), but they were extremely helpful in assisting us in retrieving our car and getting us to their parking lot and showing us the way out of Marrakech. The breakfast was very nice. The place is well situated and very chic.
