The hippest riad in Marrakech
Want to retreat from the frenetic pace of the souks? We’d like to let you in to our hottest secret. It’s called maison mk and it’s Marrakech’s newest nouveau-boutique Riad.
It is owned and designed by fashion photographer, Paul Hopkins, and he has hit on the perfect blend of Islamic and 21st-century architecture. Chill out next to an illuminated pool flickering with its flickering fire and waterfall fountain, chill to the ipod provided or hook up your own to choose the perfect soundtrack.
The interior is testament to Paul’s stylish eye for seamless lines and tranquil hues, and it’s located a stone’s throw from the pulsating main square.
