L’un de nos auteurs, Olivier alias Zitoun, vit dans un petit paradis a Marrakech – un magnifique Riad superbement bien place a 5 min de la place Jemaa-el-fna, magnifiquement decore. On le croirait sorti d’un livre de contes.
Il nous envoie regulierement des photos a tomber. Je vous assure que lorsqu’on habite une pluvieuse Angleterre, on n’a qu’une envie, faire ses valises illico.
De plus, Zitoun est passionne, devoue. Son plus grand plaisir est de faire de votre sejour un vrai reve. Il saura vous conseiller, vous guider au mieux.
C’est un ami formidable et je n’en doute pas un hote tout autant attentionne.
Evidemment, il n’aurait pas ose faire ce post. Mais j’y tiens!
Olivier propose du coup, si vous reservez directement avec lui (soit via le site web du Riad
, soit par le formulaire de contact “Zitoun” sur ce site) et mentionnez le site Crazytrip.org de vous offrir les boissons hors alcool (the, cafe, orange pressee, eau minderale, soda).
Sachez aussi que pour tout sejour de 4 nuits ou plus, l’equipe de Dar Najat viendra vous chercher/vous reconduira a l’aeroport (mais ou diable ai-je mis mon passeport?!!!)
Je souhaitais faire une longue description du lieu, de l’equipe… Mais les photos et les temoignages des visiteurs parlent finalement d’eux-meme… J’en ai selectionne trois parmi tant pour vous faire rever un peu plus. J’apprends d’ailleurs que tortues et oiseaux sont habitues du jardin…
Mille et une étoiles 
Pari réussi pour Souad et Olivier, heureux propriétaires de ” votre riad”.
Ici vous allez recevoir un petit supplément d’âme, qui mieux que sur la place jamaâ el fna, vous tatouera le coeur et l’âme de manière indélébile.
En franchissant le seuil la magie s’opère.
Tadelak où se reflètent les bois précieux,il faudrait une vie pour recenser tous les trésors offerts sans jamais être ostentatoires.
Un jardin dans la maison tant fleurs et plantes vous frôlent à chaque pas, les oiseaux et tortues seront vos compagnons de ce conte de fée.
Une propreté irréprochable, un personnel qui devance vos moindres désirs sans jamais vous étouffer.
En fait tous forment une famille de coeur qui vous accueille avec une chaleur inoubliable.
La terrasse, joyau de “DAR NAJAT” avec sa flore ennivrante,ses nombreux petits nids douillets- dont l’un accrochant la lumière des neiges de l’Atlas- , son jacuzzi vous transportera définitivement aux portes du Voyage.
Un endroit magique…
Un endroit Magique dans un mélange d’odeurs sucrées et salés. Chez Olivier c’est tout : Suave, feutré, amicale, bon enfant, super petit dej, un personnel serviable et qui ne sait plus quoi faire pour vous être agréable. L’établissement est d une propreté exemplaire, et toutes les commodités sont a votre portée, en plein dans la Médina et a 10mm de la place ….. .Olivier a été un conseiller admirable et objectif sur toutes les sorties que j’ai effectué a Marrakech et ses environs ( restaurants, musées , endroits branchés). Je ne saurai pas vous dire a quel point (,moi qui suis très exigeant en principe) je remercie du fond du coeur l’equipe du “RIAD NAJAT” pour ces vacances inoubliables!! Un grand remerciement a Olivier, Souad sa femme d’une extrême gentillesse, et Said, l’homme qui m’a fait voir Marrakech sous un autre angle !!!!! C’était un voyage en “tapis volant” !! Henri
Lieu exceptionnel
Notre séjour au riad dar najat a été merveilleux. Accueil et service parfait, notre chambre était très calme et agréable. Olivier et Souad, les propriétaires de ce petit paradis ont su nous recevoir comme il se doit. Olivier, merci d’avoir été a notre écoute, d’avoir su nous guider et de faire de cette endroit un petit chez nous. Said et Amine, meilleurs guides de Marrakech, toujours là pour nous rendre service et toujours le sourire. Nous avons aimé nous détendre sur la terrasse et le jaccuzzi entouré d’un jardin aux milles parfums. Riad plus que conseillé !!! Si vous devez allez Marrakech, il faut passer par le riad Dar Najat, ça vaut le détour !!

One of our authors, Olivier alias Zitoun, lives in a real paradise in Marrakech – a splendid Riad just 5mn from the Jemaa-el-fna place, and the decoration just looks out of a legend book. Magical. You just want to live there.
He often sends us gorgeous pictures and believe me, when you live in rainy England, you feel you should be packing straight away!
Moreover, Zitoun is passionate, friendly, happy to help. Always happy and smiling! He will know the best places to go and visit – just ask!
He’s a very precious friend and we just know he cares very much for his guests. He will do his best for your holidays to be just perfect.
Of course, he would never have written this post himself. However, we all feel he deserves it.
Olvier does propose, if you book with him directly (via his website or though our contact page under Zitoun) and mention Crazytrip.org, to offer free drinks – alcohol excluded – (tea, coffee, fresh orange juice, mineral water, sodas).
Even better, for any sty of 4 nights or more, the staff will be picking you up / driving you back to the airport (where the hell have I put my passport??)
I orginally wanted to tell you more about the place, the staff… But I find that the pictures and guest’s memories of their holidays there say it so much better than I. I have selected 3 to make you dream further. I learnt this way that turtles and birds love coming in the garden – extraodinary!
The Riad itself is amazing, and the perfect place to relax after a busy day visiting the sights and shopping in the souks. Each morning we had a lovely breakfast on the roof terrace. We strongly reccommend staying here and loved it so much we are already planning our next trip back!
Forgot to mention dinner is also available on request and Souad, the chef, is a gem in terms of cooking! I definitely recommend the riad for any kind of travellers – young, older, married or single you will just have an unforgettable experience at Dar Najat. Thank you again, I’m coming back soon and with friends this time!
I have just come back from Marrakech where my boyfrend and I stayed at Riad dar Najat which was great. An authentic house with three floors and a fabulous roof terrace. Our bedroom was decorated with local artwork. It took us a few days to take everything in – a delight to anyone who has an interest in other cultures. The roof terrace was a perfect place to relax in the morning sun while having breakfast or pre-dinner drinks (the rose is the best ) while listening to cool jazz or Buddah Bar type music. Moo Moo (Mustafa) was always there when we needed anything and Siad the local celebrity who has recently worked alongside Tom Hanks is also a bit of eye candy for the ladies. We had a fabulous time in Marrakech, certainly helped by choosing this fab riad.
My only other suggestion would be, is to take some warm clothes as it is very cold at night once the sun has gone down.
My partner Nikki & I stayed four nights in late November.
We had a great break, enjoyed the chaos of Marrakech immensly and more so thanks to Olivier and his team at Riad Dar Najat. If you book make sure you take up the offer of the transfer from the airport – while its only five minutes from the main market square you wouldn’t want to find it on your own: with a taxi you’ll arrive, as we did, exhillarated from the taxi ride and happy to find the sanctuary.
The Riad is traditional Moroccan in style, friendly and very relaxing. Waking up in Marrakech hearing the bird song is lovely. After getting up you go to the roof terrace for the inclusive breakfast, served by the resident local staff who are always pleased to help.
We found a real plus-point to be one of th services offered by the staff – they will walk you to the restaurant/hammam and make sure you dont get lost and even give you their number if you get lost on your way back. It really is only five or six minutes walk to the centre of everything and the souks.
Lastly, the Riad’s most valuable asset is its owner, Olivier, he made our stay so much better than those of people staying in perhaps ‘more expensive’ western hotels. He speaks very good English/French and made excellent recommendations for restaurants and hammams and activities. Nothing is too much trouble for him. In fact we did have a problem with a hammam we had foolishly sourced ourselves – he recommended the action we should take , made many phone calls and in the end we had an apology from the hammam and a full refund with some compensation.
We were quite surprised by how cold Marrakech was in the evenings – coats were needed and our room had a radiator that worked. The only thing stopping me giving the Riad and ‘excellent’ report was the bed, it was a bit hard for our liking. It wouldn’t stop me booking again!
It you re looking for a good place to stay in Marrakech – this Riad is the one!
“Take me back…This place is fantastic!”
