Royal Mansour Marrakech, Morocco
A celebration of architecture
Inspired by the Moorish architecture of Spain, Portugal and
North Africa The Royal Mansour celebrates its master
craftsmen with attention to traditional architectural details
including carved ceilings, and tiled walls and floors where
Zelliges and Tadelakt take centerstage. The hotel’s largerthan-life
entrance greets guests with the same promise as the
great gate of Marrakech “happiness, wealth and prosperity.”
They keep the promise with a glorious design that features
an underground network of tunnels to grant uncompromising
service with each of its 53 riads ensuring guests ultimate
privacy and seclusion. Modelled after traditional Moroccan
houses, a central courtyard provides a focal point of the riads
and a wonderful place to view the impossible quantity of stars
in the African desert at night. Privilege Riads come with 430
square meters of living space, the ultimate in luxury. Spanish
landscape designer Luis Vallejo created the opulent Le Jardin
a homage to famous gardens of the past like Ménara and the
Agda. Majestic palm groves provide life-giving shade and
beauty at an elegant spot to take in the sun. Choose your ideal
cuisine in the one-of-a-kind restaurants La Grande Table
Marocaine and La Grande Table Française.
