El Fenn

Marrakech, Morocco

​

​

​

Set just moments from the bustling Jemaa el-Fnaa square, El Fenn is a luxury boutique riad in Marrakech that captures the spirit of Moroccan artistry and modern bohemian design. Housed in a collection of restored riads, this stylish retreat blends traditional craftsmanship — from hand-carved plasterwork to zellige tile mosaics — with contemporary art and vibrant textiles. Owned by Vanessa Branson, sister of Sir Richard Branson, El Fenn feels like an elegant yet eclectic private home — where every corner tells a story.


The hotel’s design aesthetic is equal parts soulful and sophisticated: jewel-toned walls, vintage photography, sculptural lighting, and bold contemporary artworks line the halls. Beyond its visual allure, guests can unwind in one of three serene courtyard pools, enjoy panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains from the rooftop terrace, or rejuvenate at the hammam-inspired spa. From romantic dinners under lantern light to rooftop cocktails at sunset, El Fenn offers an immersive Marrakech experience that celebrates both heritage and high design.


Perfectly located near the Medina’s souks and cultural landmarks, El Fenn provides the ideal balance between authentic Moroccan atmosphere and refined luxury, appealing to design lovers, honeymooners, and travelers seeking an intimate yet inspiring retreat in one of North Africa’s most magical cities.
