Riad Farnatchi, Marrakech Medina

The Moorish fantasy of celebrated British hotelier Jonathan Wix, Riad Farnatchi was created from five existing riads. Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson are among the pampered clientele who have rested their heads in this oasis of decadence and calm, where the rooftop terrace and sparkling interior pool feel light-years away from the chaotic street life below. Thanks to an interior private courtyard that's dominated by an olive tree and a private terrace that overlooks a heated pool, Suite 8 may be the sexiest of the nine suites.
