GARDEN OF THE SOUL

Welcome to Riad Botanica

Discover an oasis for your soul in the historic 10th-century Medina of Marrakesh. Opened in early 2023, Riad Botanica is a place to reconnect to yourself, indulge your senses and reinvigorate your curiosity and wonder of the beauty that is life. 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.

Riad Botanica made it to Condé Nast Traveller’s Top 10 in North Africa in 2024. We’d be honoured to have your support again!
