This luxury Marrakech riad is the perfect base for shopping in the souks

An oasis in the bustling Medina, this 10th-century aristocratic residence comes with a roof terrace, courtyard and a pool

Location

Riad Botanica is found in the heart of Marrakech’s medina. Located down one of the walled city’s signature winding alleys, its unassuming green door reveals a beautiful courtyard centred around an orange tree. A short walk from the maze of vibrant souks, it’s near the bustling Jemaa el-Fnaasquare, Bacha Coffee – an opulent cafe that transports you back to 1910 – and the tranquil Jardin Secret (a welcome respite from the sensory delights of the markets).
