Amanjena

Amanresorts meets Africa in the form of Marrakech’s Amanjena. It’s another departure from tropical island-chic for the chain that started nearly two decades ago in Phuket with Amanpuri. Designed by the American architect Ed Tuttle to conform harmoniously to its surroundings, Amanjena bears a dist...

Dar Darma

Too often “design” actually seems to mean an absence of design, as though the end goal were to empty the hotel of everything but beds and white walls. You don’t need a designer for that, just some movers. Here, in Dar Darma, is an exception: a riad hotel that’s quite obviously had some designer a...

Dar Les Cigognes

With the seemingly endless array of riad hotels in Marrakech, it takes a discerning eye to separate one from another. In the case of Dar Les Cigognes: this is the one with the bridge. Like a few others, this one is made of two courtyard residences joined into a single small hotel; unlike the othe...

Dar Warda

There is perhaps no more authentic way to see Marrakech than to stay in a riad, a private house in the medina (the old town) that faces inward, organized around a central courtyard. Dar Warda couldn’t be more intimate—a mere four bedrooms—nor could it be less like a hotel, or more like a...

Demeures D'orient

There are humbler riads, designed to feel as cozy and low-key as a private home, or at least as cozy and low-key as a five- or ten-bedroom walled mansion could possibly feel. And then there are riads like Demeures d’Orient. This place doesn’t bother itself with trying to create that home-spun “ou...

Hivernage Hotel & Spa

In Marrakech hotels the choice, often enough, is between a contemporary resort way out in the Palmeraïe and a traditional-style riad hotel in the crowded, buzzing medina. But it’s not actually as simple as that. Take the Hivernage Hotel & Spa as an example — it’s in town, though just outside ...

Ksar Char-Bagh

Just fifteen minutes outside of Marrakech is an upscale district called the Palmeraie, a thousand-year-old palm-grove oasis in the midst of a dry desert landscape straight out of The Sheltering Sky. It is here that Marrakech's new breed of mini-palace hotels has sprung up — of w...

L' Heure Bleue

If Marrakech is a city that never sleeps — chaotic, colorful, romantic, and cramped — then Essaouira is a seaside town that would rather take a leisurely siesta in a hand-woven hammock. The old-fashioned port city has long drawn surfers to its stunning Atlantic beaches and the occasional guideboo...

La Mamounia

La Mamounia is closed for a major renovation under the direction of noted designer, Jacques Garcia. It will re-open in the spring of 2009. Thanks to a massive makeover in the eighties, La Mamounia is more fantasy than ever before: huge and bright and excessive, a glittering combinatio...

La Sultana Marrakech

You can only make a riad hotel so big. But if you’re stuck for size, you can join them together — La Sultana, for example, combines four traditional Marrakchi courtyard mansions into one contiguous complex, and in so doing creates one of the medina’s most complete luxury hotels. In some towns 18 ...

Le Riad Monceau

Le Riad Monceau would be little more than another perfectly lovely riad hotel, if it weren’t for the creative touch of its owner. Hotelier and artist Isabelle Aubry has a keen eye for Islamic patterns and Moorish textures and exhibits her bold, colorful embroidery works throughout this intimate h...

Naoura Barriere

If ever there’s a hotel scene that could stand some shaking up, it’s Marrakech. Here your choices are pretty strictly limited: a tiny riad in the medina, a sprawling resort in the Palmeraïe, or the very rare luxury hotel that’s neither one nor the other. In this town a city-center luxury boutique...
