A beautiful hotel - exquisitely furnished and decorated, spotlessly clean and always comfortable. A good location approximately 10 minutes walk to Djemaa el-Fna (once you figure out the best way!) and convenient for the Nouvelle Ville, Souks, and plenty of taxis passing nearby. The staff were brilliant and could not do enough to help - always polite, friendly and approachable. I was even offered a herbal tea 'concoction' when they heard I was suffering from tummy troubles! We were given a free upgrade to a suite for our final two nights on account of it being our Honeymoon; both rooms were excellent.
Breakfast is a feast with a delicious and wide selection, highlights being the fantastic home made yoghurt and made-to-order Moroccan pancakes!
We used the hotel's other leisure facilities which are a 20 minute (free) shuttle transfer away on the city outskirts. A nice place to relax, with big comfy beds and a large (but cold!) pool and light snacks available.
We only dined once at the hotel's Moroccan restaurant but had a fantastic meal, including the biggest fall-off-the-bone shoulder of lamb you will ever see! It was not a cheap option, but for a special meal definitely value for money. The restaurant has got the ambience spot-on, and the lute/guitar musicians playing background music added a real special touch.
The hotel has a number of informal seating areas which are lovely places for reading a book, drinking afternoon tea or having early evening drinks. We also used the hotel pool on a few occasions and found it a lovely way to cool down and relax after a day walking the city!
We took part in the famous cookery class and had great fun cooking Moroccan salads, chicken tagine with preserved lemons and olives, and watching a bread making demonstration with the added bonus of eating the products of our labour for lunch after the session!
All-in-all, we had a memorable stay at a fantastic hotel, and would recommend to all who are looking for a top class place to stay when in Marrakech.
