La Mamounia Marrakech – Morocco

“When La Manounia opened in 1923, it became Marrakech’s gold standard for luxury and debauchery among jet-setters and heads of state” David Farley” – The New York Times

The legend of a hotel has been reborn. Thanks to Jacques Garcia’s exotic historicist makeover. La Mamounia offers now a gloriously grand welcome once more.
Inspired by Arabian-Andalusian traditions and Berber handcrafts, the renowned Parisian decorator created a masterful mix of colors and forms that features sumptuous, specially commissioned mosaics, metalwork and woodwork.

The renovation took into account both the hotel 90-year history and the requirements of today’s high-end travelers, the addition of an Oriental vision of a spa completing the highly sensuous experience.

The luxury balcony suits, the magnificent architecture, the various pools and fountains, and the extensive grounds give La Mamounia a charm that even the most seasoned of travelers will find hard to resist.
