A jewel in the crown - well several jewels Myself and my partner have just returned from a short three night break in Marrakesh and stayed in Riad Dar Anika. It is just at the entrance towards a street that is not large enough for cars so it is perfectly located for airport drop off without walking far with luggage. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with smiles, welcome drinks and snacks and a detailed explanation of Marrakesh old town and the new part. We were given options to visit, places to consider having a drink and the history of different places. Our bedroom was allocated earlier than the e pecked check in time. It was close to reception however was not at all noisy. It was beautifully presented with rose petals on the bed, a snack and fruit in the room and so clean! There was an explanation of the green and red chord and also breakfast times and time for afternoon cake (which was a welcome treat between breakfast and our evening meal). The breakfasts had a French feel to them. They certainly did not leave you feeling hungry! So much to eat and fresh squeezed orange juice, tea and coffee served to your table. The waiting staff were all happy, welcomed us with a smile each day and were so attentive throughout. The men and women worked so nicely together and appeared to really respect each other irrespective of age, gender or position. There was a gentleman that played music on a couple of nights in the restaurant - apparently the songs were about love. The music was not intrusive and he looked a happy soul. We ate in the restaurant one night and the food was delicious. I had a monk fish (simple) and it was soooo tasty. Craig had a simple beef dish again really lovely. The salad starter was so fresh and the avocado was the nicest I’ve ever had! The environment on all floors was one of peace and tranquility. A lovely pleasantly warm pool outside of our room, tables and comfy seating throughout and the top floor having a jacuzzi dipping pool and sun loungers and chairs. It was clean, comfortable and with as much or as little attention from staff as you wanted. I can’t recommend this place highly enough! If we come back to Marrakesh we would definitely stay here. It really was filled with beautiful, kind and compassionate staff who want you to have a wonderful experience. We certainly did, thank you. Our ONLY recommendation would be to change the music playlist a bit - a very minor point and whilst it was gentle, it was limited in songs so felt a bit repetitive. A really minor recommendation from an otherwise truly incredible stay. They even gave us a pack up breakfast, tea and coffee to go and a beautiful gift for me for my hair - thank you -so much. If you have the option to choose here to stay you will come home happy and relaxed. Thank you so much from Nikki and Craig
