riad marrakech

            "Dar Najat is like being at the best chill out lounge in Marrakech”
August in Marrakech.. it's dusty, dry, it's Ramadan and we wait to see if the temperature will hit 45 dregress.
The air doesn't flow and bags don't carry themselves.. so who could imagine the relief and utter joy at stepping into a Dar Najat.. and into owner Oliver's oasis. 
Up two flights of stairs and you hit the roof terrance which to be honest, if you manage to leave after sumptous breakfast, it will be a miracle. 
Trees and flowers line the terrace, as do couches and tables. We eye up the jacuzzi and make a mental note to get back in time to watch the sunset in it, complete with a glass of good French wine in hand.
The French born designer has got this place right. 
It is the only riad to go anyway to offering some of the Northern African influence... and it is not only reflected in the textiles and furniture but the mellow and uplifting beats which waft out across the terrace all through the day and into the night.
Oliver loves his music and it sets the truly homely vibe that is magic to walk into.
When we left there was another roof terrace in the making which will only entice you to delay heading to the souks for one more hour to soak up more sun, coffee and tunes.
Go with a lover, go with a friend.. but this is one place you should go if you are on your own in the crazy city as you will make friends and get given the low down on what happening.
