I was keen on my second trip to Marrakech to stay at dar najat, a traditional characterful riad; sumptuous, exotic & beautiful. In every way my expectations were exceeded. Olivier, the charming owner spent the last two month lovingly restoring this place to magnificent glory. The interior is exquisite with the most amazing carved wooden doors surrounding the interior courtyard, lush fabrics & cushions, ornately  ceilings & fantastic tiling. These intricate details are all offset against simple dazzling White Walls which blend together harmoniously. Olivier has accessorized with the utmost taste & flair & has succeeded to create an incredible atmosphere of serenity & relaxation. The constant tinkling of water from the Jacuzzi is delightful. Even the lovely ladies that work there go about their work with a sense of calm & tranquility. The en-suite bedrooms are again lush but simply designed, comfortable & air conditioned. The roof terrace is amazing with it's muslin-draped gazebo & cushioned loungers. Olivier is thoroughly charming, amusing, thoughtful & helpful. There are only 7 bedrooms so the service is very intimate. The inclusive breakfast was fresh & delicious & if you wish to eat there Olivier will arrange for his staff to cook for you if you let him know in advance. We were served a selection of salads, two tagines, breads, wine & desert made with seasonal fresh ingredients. This lavish feast was laid out on a table strewn with fresh rose petals & was really sublime. The riad is immaculate throughout & clean beyond belief. My visit to Marrakech was enhanced so much by this lovely accommodation & Olivier’s generous spirit & hospitality. I can't recommend it enough & can't wait to go again.
