Riad des Etoiles
Marrakesh
6.5COSY
Tucked into the medina's winding lanes a short walk from the Place des Ferblantiers, this calm riad wins repeated praise for Mohammed's warm welcome, traditional mint tea, baghrir crêpes, and a hand-drawn map of the neighbourhood, though at least one guest encountered damp linen and a cockroach that staff were slow to address, so the experience is not without its rough edges.
