It&#39;s the worst-kept secret of the medina; acclaimed by fashionistas and artists alike, the Secret Garden riad has admirers&nbsp;around the world.

On the sidelines of its six&nbsp;relaxed anti-modernist rooms, the place seduces the artists with its proposal of a residence.

Two years later, El Fenn riad was born, combining Moroccan ancestral know-how, luscious decoration and ultra-luxury service. Original cedar ceilings and&nbsp;traditional mosaics blend together with hand-picked furniture. the riad has twenty-eight rooms and suites, three pools, a bar, a spa and a library, offering a hedonistic retreat to a select few. Branson, to whom we owe the creation of the Marrakech Biennial, has created something of a living gallery where the works of contemporary artists adorn the walls.&nbsp;
