Oliver"s Riads-Boutique Riad Dar Najat

Dar Najat has many things going for it: ease of access, excellent food, a wonderful rooftop views that surpass any other that we have stayed in.

Much care and attention to detail has been given by Olivier the owner throughout the riad and it looks like there has been no expense spared with regard to the décor and furnishings. Antiques,african painting and quality lanterns abound along with Moroccan rugs and cushions, and the place has a really luxurious feel to it.

Our room was large with a huge bed, stunning bathroom and TV! The inside shutters on the windows really blocked out the light (which was important to us) and we slept very well.

As the weather was warm and sunny we had breakfast on the roof terrace, which was a real treat. The breakfast was delicious including fresh fruit, yoghurt, eggs and Moroccan breads, which was more than enough to set us up for the day.

We also ate at the riad for 2 nights and the food was exquisite and very well prepared. Several times before, we've found that food can be a let down at hotels and riads but not at Dar najat. It was well prepared, delicious and hot!

The views from the terrace are some of the best you'll get from a riad in Marrakech and we've stayed at several. Because of the open space , there are great views of the rooftops of Marrakech medina dominated by the nearby , Koutoubia minaret and the snow-dusted atlas Mountains.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend staying here. We are in Marrakech every couple of months and this has been the best place we have stayed in so far.
