I stayed at the boutique hotel EL FENN, actually I prefer to call it Riad El Fenn, because you really feel at home, couldn’t be happier. Vanessa Branson along with her business partner Howell James renovated an almost ruined courtyard of one of Marrakech's formerly private homes. Great service and an amazing taste everywhere you look, full of art and craftsman work. Perfect location, just five minutes walk from Djemaa el Fna and the souks. I was worried about the noise, but inside is very quiet, a sanctuary in the middle of Medina.
