My second piece for Area Daily has come out this week! This is a 3 part story on Marrakech, Morocco, which I researched when we traveled there over Christmas. Check out the beautiful, amazing hotels that I had the great pleasure of staying at in Marrakech.
This week Area informant, Elena Sprick, explores the hidden gems and tasty tajines of the winding alleyways of Marrakech, Morocco.
First up, check out the elegant and private riads – Moroccan style houses – that are concealed behind indescript doors in the smallest of alleys. Escape the hustle and bustle of the outside world and relax in the peace and comfort of one of these stylish homes.
Be warned: after a visit to Dar Seven you may find it difficult to settle back into regular life. This sophisticated riad has an unsurpassed air of exclusivity and privacy. Relax in the courtyard sipping a mint tea, as the only sound you hear is chirping of birds. Close your eyes for too long and you will start dreaming of ways to turn this paradise fantasy into a permanent reality.
The eclectic style of Dar Darma will have you wondering what hides behind every door. Each suite and apartment is decorated in a unique style with original pieces from around the world. When you get tired of walking laps around the city, the rooftop pool is the perfect spot to chill out.
Senses on overload? Steal away from the madness of the medina and head for quieter pastures. Relax poolside at the eco-friendly Dar Zarraba, located in the countryside only 15 minutes from the city center. Nestled in a grove of olive trees surrounded by farmlands, Dar Zarraba combines the perfect mix of comfort and country living. Come for the relaxation, stay for the excellent cuisine and private hammam.
And the rooftop Berber tent of Riad Jahan is the ideal location to spend the evening unwinding while listening to the noises of city life below. The unbeatably friendly staff and comfortable rooms make this place a true treasure.
