A journey into Morocco’s most unforgettable luxury stays.
Morocco is a land where every corner tells a story — from ancient medinas to sweeping desert dunes, vibrant souks to tranquil mountain oases. And just like the landscapes, its luxury hotels are full of character. Whether it’s handcrafted architecture, unforgettable views, or experiences you can’t find anywhere else, these stays are more than just places to sleep, they are destinations in themselves.
Here’s an up-close look at the 10 most luxurious hotels in Morocco and what makes each one uniquely special.
Royal Mansour Marrakech — Crafted Entirely by Moroccan Artisans
Royal Mansour isn’t just a luxury hotel — it’s an architectural masterpiece built entirely by Moroccan artisans. There are no traditional hotel corridors; instead, private riads (individual suites) are connected by winding lanes and gardens like a mini medina. Each riad features handmade zellige tiles, carved cedar wood, and private courtyard gardens — making every stay feel like owning a secret palace.

La Mamounia — Home to One of the Largest Private Garden Spaces in the City
La Mamounia is famous for its sprawling private gardens that rival some royal estates. These gardens stretch across six hectares and feature hundreds of plant species, shaded paths, and hidden fountains — offering a calm oasis just steps from the medina. The hotel also has Michelin-starred dining and hosted Winston Churchill during his many stays — adding to its timeless allure.
Nobu Hotel Marrakech — Morocco’s First Culinary Lifestyle Luxury Brand Hotel
Nobu Marrakech isn’t simply a luxury hotel — it’s the first full Nobu lifestyle property in Morocco. That means world-renowned Nobu cuisine (think black cod and signature cocktails) is right on site, alongside rooftop lounges with panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains. It’s where high design meets culture and creative gastronomy.

Kasbah Tamadot — Exclusive Tented Luxury in the Atlas Mountains
What sets Kasbah Tamadot apart is its choice of accommodation: traditional Moroccan rooms and luxury Berber tents on the mountainside, complete with private terraces and spectacular views.
