Staying at El Fenn with my fiancée was an experience we’ll never forget. From the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into a hidden world full of beauty, warmth, and charm. The design of the hotel is absolutely stunning. Every room, hallway, and courtyard feels like a piece of art. It’s easily one of the most beautifully designed places we’ve ever stayed. Our room was incredibly comfortable. Everything from the bed, always having a cold bottle of water, to the little details made it feel special and inviting. But what really made the stay unforgettable was the staff. Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and genuinely caring. We didn’t feel like guests. We felt like we were coming home. What touched us most were the random acts of kindness from the staff, little surprises like complimentary desserts, free drinks, and thoughtful gestures that made us feel truly cared for. It wasn’t just hospitality, it was soulful. Every part of the experience had a touch of magic. Whether we were relaxing on the rooftop, enjoying a quiet moment in the courtyard, or just wandering through the hotel, there was a constant feeling of peace and wonder. El Fenn is more than just a hotel. It is a feeling that stayed with us long after we left. We’re already talking about when we can go back. Truly one of the best places we’ve ever stayed, and we can’t recommend it highly enough.

This is a great hotel - we really enjoyed our stay. It is really beautifully decorated with quiet courtyards and marble staircases. It feels very homely with extremely polite and attentive staff. The location is perfect - steps away from the bustle of the medina, yet not too hidden away down alleyways - definitely an oasis of calm to relax in after a morning wandering the souks. The rooftop restaurant was superb - plentiful breakfasts, and the best food we ate in Marrakech for dinner. The rooftop terrace as a whole was the best we visited, with separate areas for the restaurant, bar (with a great atmosphere in evenings) and the pool area. The rooftop pool was impressively sized: there were two smaller pools on the ground floor as well but the roof one was definitely the best. It's not cheap. Other riads may have similar beautiful interiors (although unlikely such a nice pool, most look more decorative). The small room was smaller than I expected, and we didn't have a bath (most of the pictures on their website do...) There's an extra mandatory daily service charge of around 30 euros. However the overall set up is incredibly welcoming and relaxing, the location perfect, the food delicious, and we would definitely stay again tomorrow if we could.

Beautiful property, friendly staff- all very helpful and genuinely kind. I found significant issues with the rooms though - from a shower that backed up flooding the WC, to mold on bathroom walls ( large areas covered in mold not little bits) a clogged, old hand shower, very spotty WiFi, heat out entirely in one room ( attributed the issue to a storm however it had began the day before) wobbly, unkept furniture, lounge chair on which the bottom had given out, loose, old bathroom faucets that were all loose and wobbly etc. For the price of the rooms (or any cost for that matter) I found all these things unacceptable. I brought up some of the significant issues to the staff while there(backed up plumbing etc) and was moved to 3 different rooms during my stay. The staff was accommodating but spent a lot of time apologizing (I felt so bad for them) I am a kind and reasonable person and I fault the facilities manager - Focus needs to expand to the basic function and care of the units and not rely so much on the “optics” and aesthetics to carry the property through. The things I noticed seemed chronic and to not have been tended to for a long time (like the mold covering a huge part of the wall- that would take months) To experience issues with BASIC ESSENTIALS like the bathrooms seems inexcusable. The service staff is kind and lovely but I will not stay here again. Whoever is in charge of maintenance of the units needs a talking to by ownership.
