This was our second visit to Marrakech and we decided to stay at the same riad that we stayed in last year, Riad Dar Najat.

The riad is located within a 5 minute walk away from Jemma el Fna square, in a very quite part of the Old Medina of Marrakech. We had the airport transfer arranged for us by the owner Oliver as it seemed like the easiest option for us. On our last visit we found that a lot of the taxi drivers around Marrakech do not speak any English, getting the riad to organise the transfer meant that we could relax and let the driver take us to the riad.

The riad itself has been renovated since our last visit, everything looked perfect. The staff are so friendly at this riad, they all remembered us from last year and it was like seeing old friends. Whatever you need the staff can get it organised for you, if you need any tips on where to go or what to eat, they will be happy to give you impartial advice.

The food at the riad seemed even better than last time, the tagines they cook are made to perfection and we even got the cook to give us some of the spices she used to bring back home.

All of the rooms are ensuite and have everything that you need inside them, complimentry toiletries were provided and the towels were changed daily. The riad was kept spotless and we could not fault anything we experienced on our stay.

Be warned that Marrakech is a very addictive city, we are already planning our third trip and will be booking to stay at Riad Dar Najat again.
