Riad Goloboy
Riad Goloboy is part of a complex of two 19th century aristocratic houses lovingly restored by art collector and interior designer Beatrice Faujas.
Upon entering this charming boutique hotel in Marrakech, you will immediately feel its special intimate atmosphere that makes you feel at home. Every detail has been chosen with passion and every room is worth a visit.
Faujas’s style blends valuable antiques and original works of art with an unexpectedly eclectic contemporary touch.
The entire house recalls the past times when young European aristocrats lived while discovering the beauty and artistic mysteries of Marrakech.
Wrapped in joyous hues inspired by the colourful works of artists Henri Matisse and Serge Poliakoff, Riad Goloboy is the first of its kind in Marrakech’s labyrinthine medina.
The interiors of this house of fifteen pretty rooms were designed by Faujas, the creator of this boutique hotel.
The walls in deep shades of anthracite highlight the bright colours of the 1950s furniture.
Eye-catching works of art, including those by Matisse and French street-artist Kouka, line the walls. And many of the riad’s original decorative elements have been lovingly blended throughout.
Indeed, however beautiful the effect of Riad Goloboy as a whole, the decadence is in the details. The breathtaking Majorelle blue courtyard, the two magnificent terraces with jacuzzi overlooking the Atlas Mountains and the Mamounia Gardens, will make you feel in paradise and inspire the most beautiful pictures in this colourful Moroccan riad.
Decorated in an original and lively style, it will be difficult for you to choose your room among the 15 at your disposal… And for good reason, some of the rooms here, with their bright colours, resemble sets from a particularly elegant Wes Anderson film, while others have a certain sensitivity to the 1001 nights with sumptuous Moorish details.
If you want unforgettable moments during your stay and the opportunity to walk to some of the most picturesque places in Marrakech while avoiding the hustle and bustle of the medina, then Riad Goloboy is the perfect place for your stay.
