"Extravagant and extravagantly expensive... a vast oasis ten minutes' drive from town where luxury hotels are currently springing up like palm trees."
Fodor's

Travel + Leisure
"The rooms, called Harem Suites, are enormous—so big, in fact, that they swallow up rather than show off their handsome furnishings." Full review

"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
Star Service
"Overall, this is a toned-down version of La Maison Arabe (which also has its own out-of-town gardens, pool and residence) with fewer accommodations and more solitude. " Full review
