Hi,

    Hi Poodge,

    Can highly recommend the Hotel Kenzi Farah. Have been to Marrakech twice this year, first time I had booked the Kenzi, and loved it. Second time, I decided to try a riad, so booked Riad Tizwa. Never again. After two nights I checked back in at the Kenzi, and was welcomed like an old friend!

    Be careful not to mistake it for the Hotel Kenzi!

    Are you flexible on airports and dates? x

    Be aware that the standard of accommodation in RAK is not the same as that in the UK, and I would equate a 5* to a UK 3*. Therefore I would not go for less than a 5* out there ... x
