  A beautiful riad and even more beautiful people

  We were recently fortunate to stay at Le Farnatchi, the love child of founder James, over a long weekend in Marrakech. This beautifully repurposed riad, located in the heart of the old city, is an oasis of calm and regeneration in the middle of the bustling Medina. It is just a short walk from wonderful rooftop restaurants, cultural landmarks, and the shopping opportunities of the souks. Beyond immersing ourselves in the local style through the rooms and the food and beverage experience, it is the hospitality offered by the team that will remain our most vivid memory. Saïda at Reception, Walid at Concierge, Fatiha at the Spa, Mahfoud at the Restaurant, together with Director Morad made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay. Meeting these kind people, so true to Morocco's reputation for genuine hospitality, will remain our fondest memory of this wonderful weekend in the Medina. We hope to return again soon!

  Home from home

  Beautiful Riad, quiet and full of charm with very attentive staff. During our stay nothing was too much for them to do. From ironing our cloths while we were out to making sure we were taken to the taxi pick up point. Every morning we asked to have our breakfast on the terrace and nothing was too much for them. We requested water melon and they made sure we got this with our breakfast the following morning. This Riad makes you feel safe and like being part of a family. We loved our stay and we will be back. Thank you James for making time to speak to us every morning! Thus you were very busy with the expansion of the Riad you took time to chat. The spa is amazing! A must try hammam session should not be missed when staying at Le Farnatchi’s.

  A serene riad in the heart of the medina, with hospitality to match

  From the moment I arrived at Le Fernatchi, I was struck by how serene the courtyards are. One has a beautiful pool with incredible green tiles and crystal clear water, while the other is a peaceful retreat with birds chirping and gorgeous trees that make it a genuinely calming place to sit. At check-in I was told my room had been upgraded to a balcony suite, which I was thrilled to hear. The suite was spacious and every detail was thoughtfully done. The tilework and rugs were beautiful and comfortable underfoot, and the bathroom, with its bathtub and shower area, felt truly luxurious. A huge part of what made this stay special was Morad, who took care of me throughout. The highlight was breakfast on the balcony, which she brought up herself: fresh fruit, eggs, breads, honey, jams, coffee, and orange juice. Eating all of that up on the balcony was about as perfect as a morning gets. When I mentioned I had a later flight, Morad even let me extend my stay until 5pm, something she absolutely didn't have to do but did without hesitation. That kind of hospitality is rare. The hotel also arranged my airport transfers both ways, which made the whole stay seamless. The location is unbeatable too. Everywhere I wanted to go was within a fifteen minute walk, and you can step right out the door to find food, desserts, stalls, and anything else you're craving. This was my favorite hotel of the entire trip, and Morad is a big reason why. If I'm ever back in Marrakech, this is where I'll stay. Highly recommend.
