La Mamounia in Marrakech has been an outstanding name in Moroccan luxury for the past 90 years. It is a wonderfully inviting place to enjoy a relaxing time in pure bliss for your Moroccan experience. The hotel is decorated to reflect both contemporary and antique Moroccan accents that will allow you to feel at home in this beautiful palace. 

With 135 rooms, 71 suites, and 3 riads, La Mamounia creates an in­-room sanctuary with the best in decorations and antiques. Whenever I come to Morocco I opt to stay in a traditional Riad, it compliments my adventure with authenticity. Hotel amenities include a 2500 sq. meter spa, an onsite clay tennis court, both indoor and outdoor pools, and a fitness center to make your vacation absolutely ideal. The hotel has 17 acres of gardens with 700 year old olive trees, palm trees, orange trees, and more, all of which make for a lovely morning or afternoon stroll.  Hit Le Spa and choose from a variety of traditional Moroccan treatments and massages, or take a steam in the Hammam room, sauna or jacuzzi. 

The hotel has a number of onsite dining options as well, including Moroccan cuisine at Le Marocain, French fare at Le Français, Italian at L’Italien, and Mediterranean at La Pavillon de la Piscine. l’Italien by Don Alfonso has gathered 2 Michelin stars and is definitely a must-try when staying here.  There are also five bars to chose from for a pre-­dinner cocktail: Le Bar Marocain, Le Bar Italien, Le Bar Churchill, Le Bar de la Piscine and Le Menzeh Glacier et Påtissier. Needless to say you will never have to eat the same thing twice while staying at La Mamounia. 

La Mamounia has absolutely everything you need for your time in Marrakech. You will arrive eager to experience the Moroccan culture, and leave feeling fulfilled because you had the opportunity to experience all that the culture has to offer in the most luxurious way.
