GARDEN OF THE SOUL

Welcome to Riad Botanica

Discover an oasis for your soul in the historic 10th-century Medina of Marrakesh.

Recently renovated to an immaculate standard, Riad Botanica seamlessly balances beautiful art deco influences from opposite sides of the globe with exceptional craftsmanship from local artisans and an awareness of the desire of people to unwind and reconnect with nature and themselves.

The result?

A place to escape and a peace to embrace.
