"What makes Riad Mena so special is its owner's seemingly unstudied, and very chic, style." Full review
Afar Magazine "Contemporary art expert Philomena Schurer Merckoll has turned a garden-courtyard home in the heart of the Medina into a stylish, six-room retreat." Full review
Wallpaper "Surrounded by narrow, bustling streets and quintessentially Moroccan stone alleyways, Riad Mena stands discreetly on the eastern edge of Marrakech’s legendary Medina." Full review

The Telegraph9.0
"This elegant riad, with its harmonious proportions, tiered terraces, eight-metre pool and six vast suites set around a mature garden of palm, citrus and banana trees, redefines luxury in the medina." Full review
