Enjoyed lunch by the pool whilst visiting this outstanding hotel. First class service, incredible surroundings and food that really was divine. Worth far more than five star rating this surely has to be one of the best world hotels,luxurious and memorable.

There no doubt that this property is MAGNIFICENT. Historic hotel, well cared for, but as with many historic property, there's a little "resting on their laurels" aspect going on here. Basic rooms are quite basic, but if you can splurge a bit, the suites are wonderful. Grounds are TO DIE FOR, and a DEEP, old school, pool is cool, refreshing, and luxurious. The PROPERTY will not disappoint.

I would NOT recommend this hotel for first timers though. It is a long taxi ride to the medina and Jemaa el Fna. Also, the Arabic service habits are over the top here. With this I mean, the HAND OUT for a tip at EVERY TURN can be overwhelming here. When u arrive, the deliver a basket of fruit, and they wait around for a tip. 2 minutes later, a knock on the door with fresh towels, with a hand out, a few minutes more, someone comes by with some water, again waits for a tip. This normal in this culture, they'll keep coming until you stop tipping, but at La Manmounia, its too much.

If you desire a glimpse at one of the worlds finest, and historic places, you'll need to stay a night here. For the action, however, I'd spend my money at a beautiful riad near old town.

Had a spa day pass. We were alone! The service was not great, there was a lack of enthusiasm from the staff. My husband left his trousers on the bench in the gentlemen's changing room.
Upon his return, they were gone and when he asked for them they were in a plastic bag not on an hanger, not even folded....all wrinkled!... Spa No1?...no, no. And it is so dark.

This truly is a beautiful hotel in a fantastic location in Marrakech. From the moment you arrive you know this property has class and distinction above others. It's relaxed and quiet atmosphere is a world away from the bustling Marrakech, it's almost as if you are somewhere completely different! The rooms are beautiful. bright and airy with various different views. Mine was a pool view. Try out 'The Churchill Bar' whilst you there, despite the renovations they left this bar in it'sd original form along with the Churchill Suite.
This property has alot of character and charm, various activities to all keep all occupied including the spa, and just a stones throw from the souk.
