Its 54 riads each have private plunge pools and roof terraces, service is delivered through discreet underground tunnels used by staff, and the spa is widely rated the best in North Africa.

Amanjena sits 15 minutes outside Marrakech medina, offers 40 pavilions and 6 maisons on a 21 acre olive grove, and delivers the Aman formula of low staff to guest ratios and slow paced service. Rates from $1,600 per night include breakfast." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How does Fez compare with Marrakech for a Moroccan luxury trip?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Fez is quieter, culturally denser and better preserved. Marrakech is livelier, easier to reach and better set up for luxury service. A four to seven night Moroccan trip typically pairs three nights in a Fez riad such as Palais Amani or Riad Fes with three to four nights in Marrakech at Royal Mansour, La Mamounia or Selman Marrakech." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "When is the best month to visit Morocco?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "March, April, October and November. These four months sit either side of the extreme summer heat (35 to 45 degrees Celsius in Marrakech) and the winter rain in the Atlas. Ramadan, which moves earlier each year, is worth checking against your dates because many family run riads and restaurants operate reduced hours." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do you need a guide in the Marrakech medina?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "For the first day, yes. The medina is 700 acres, 9,000 derbs deep, and unmarked. A guide arranged through your hotel costs $60 to $100 for a half day and turns navigation from stressful into enjoyable. After the first day, most guests are comfortable navigating the main souks solo." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How does Luxury Hotel Compare make money?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "I earn a small affiliate commission when you book through my outbound links to Booking.com and a handful of other partners, at no extra cost to you. No hotel, resort or brand can pay to be included in a ranking or moved up the list.

[La Mamounia](#compare) is the best for history and gardens. For design lovers, [El Fenn](#compare) delivers at a significantly lower price. Morocco is the luxury travel story of 2026. Search interest for five star hotels in Marrakech has grown over 40 percent year on year. Condé Nast Traveler dedicated prominent coverage to the country in its March 2026 issue, featuring the Palais Jamaï Fès reopening and new openings across the country. Preferred Hotels named Morocco a must visit destination for the year, and the World's 50 Best Hotels list now includes a Moroccan property in its top 15 for the first time. What makes Morocco exceptional right now is the intersection of quality and value. A night at the Royal Mansour costs roughly what you would pay at a mid tier five star in London or New York, but the craftsmanship, the service and the cultural immersion are in a different category entirely. I have spent time in all ten of these hotels, and this list reflects what I believe to be the strongest collection of luxury properties in Morocco today. Every hotel has been assessed on rooms, dining, service, location and that harder to define quality: whether the place has genuine soul.

[See Airalo plans →](https://airalo.tpx.lt/XJUpu9hS) ## When to Visit Morocco The sweet spot for luxury travel in Morocco is March through May and September through November. Spring temperatures in Marrakech hover between 22 and 28 degrees, the gardens are in full bloom and hotel rates sit 20 to 30 percent below peak season. Autumn offers similar conditions with the added bonus of date harvest season in the south. Summer (June to August) pushes Marrakech above 40 degrees, which makes sightseeing uncomfortable. Mountain and coastal hotels remain significantly cooler. Winter (December to February) is mild in Marrakech (15 to 20 degrees) and surprisingly good value. Ramadan dates shift annually, so check the calendar before booking. Best Time to Visit Morocco · Month by Month Jan ⛅ Feb ☀️ Mar ☀️ Apr ☀️ May ⛅ Jun 🔥 Jul 🔥 Aug 🔥 Sep ⛅ Oct ☀️ Nov ☀️ Dec ☀️ Peak Season · Best Weather Shoulder · Good Value Hot Season · 40°C+ ☀️ Peak: Feb to May, Oct to Dec · ⛅ Shoulder: Jan, Sep · 🔥 Hot: Jun to Aug (40°C+) · 💰 Best value: Jun to Aug (30% off peak) ✦ Insider Tip Late March and early April is the sweet spot. Peak season weather with post winter pricing. Book at least three months ahead for properties like Royal Mansour and La Mamounia. For Christmas and New Year, book six months in advance. ## How to Get to Morocco All major flights land at Marrakech Menara Airport (RAK) or Fes Saiss Airport (FEZ). From the UK, Royal Air Maroc, British Airways, Ryanair and easyJet fly direct to Marrakech. Flight time is approximately 3 hours 30 minutes. Fes has direct connections from London and several European cities on Ryanair and Royal Air Maroc. From Australia, the most efficient routing is Sydney or Melbourne to Marrakech via Dubai on Emirates (approximately 22 hours total), or via Doha on Qatar Airways. Air France via Paris is another solid option. All luxury hotels in this guide offer airport transfer services, and most arrange a private car for your full stay. ✦ Qantas Tip Qantas Frequent Flyers can earn and redeem Qantas Points on Emirates flights through their codeshare partnership. Route via Dubai for the most efficient connection to Marrakech and earn points on both legs. ## The 10 Best Luxury Hotels in Morocco for 2026 Ranked by overall experience, not price. Honest about who each hotel suits best and what to watch out for before you book. ![Royal Mansour Marrakech private riad courtyard with zellige tilework](/images/hotels/morocco/royal-mansour-marrakech-768w.webp) #01 Medina, Marrakech · 15 minutes from RAK Airport ### 01\. Royal Mansour Marrakech From USD$1,520/night The Royal Mansour exists because King Mohammed VI wanted to prove that Moroccan craftsmanship could rival anything in Europe or Asia. He commissioned over 1,000 master artisans and gave them four years to build what is essentially a private village of 53 riads hidden behind the medina walls. Every surface tells a story: hand carved cedarwood ceilings from Fes, zellige mosaic tilework laid piece by piece, tadelakt plaster polished to a marble finish. You do not book a room. You book a three storey private riad with its own courtyard, plunge pool, rooftop terrace and dedicated butler who uses hidden underground passages to deliver meals without ever being seen. It ranked 13th on the World's 50 Best Hotels list in 2025 and holds a Forbes Travel Guide Five Star rating.The 27,000 square foot spa alone would justify a visit. It is built around the traditional Moroccan hammam, but the execution is unlike any hammam you have experienced: heated marble, black soap from the Rif Mountains, rhassoul clay from the Atlas region, all delivered with a precision that borders on ceremonial. Hélène Darroze, who holds three Michelin stars across her Paris and London restaurants, runs the fine dining here, and her interpretation of Moroccan ingredients through a French lens has earned genuine critical acclaim. There is a bespoke Christian Louboutin atelier inside the property. The breakfast, served on your private rooftop terrace overlooking the medina, is a multi course affair involving freshly pressed orange juice from the hotel's own grove. At these prices, every hotel should be extraordinary. **The Royal Mansour** actually is.

La Mamounia From USD$830/night **La Mamounia** opened in 1929 on a site that had been a royal garden since the 18th century, and it has held its position as one of the world's great hotels for nearly a hundred years. Winston Churchill spent weeks here painting the Atlas Mountains from the terrace. Yves Saint Laurent kept a permanent suite. De Gaulle, Roosevelt, Nelson Mandela and Paul McCartney are all on the guest register. In 2023, Condé Nast Traveler readers voted it the Best Hotel in the World with a score of 99.77 out of 100, the highest score in the award's history.A 2020 renovation by French designer Jacques Garcia refreshed the interiors without disturbing the bones, and the hotel now occupies a rare position: genuinely historic but never dated. The seven acre gardens are the soul of the property, designed in the formal Moorish four quadrant style with orange, olive and pomegranate trees planted alongside 120 year old palms. Pierre Hermé, widely considered the greatest pastry chef alive, runs Le Jardin. Jean Georges Vongerichten, whose empire spans over 60 restaurants worldwide, oversees L'Italien. The outdoor pool sits in a clearing surrounded by century old trees, and at sunrise, before the city wakes, it is the most peaceful place in Marrakech. **La Mamounia** is the kind of hotel that makes you understand why people used to dress for dinner.

Four Seasons Resort Marrakech From USD$700/night The **Four Seasons Resort Marrakech** spreads across 16 acres of gardens and pavilions just outside the medina walls, with the snow capped Atlas Mountains forming a backdrop that looks almost theatrical. Two heated swimming pools, an 18 hole golf course designed by Ronald Fream, four tennis courts, a comprehensive kids club and a full service spa make this the most complete resort in Marrakech. It is the only property in the city that genuinely works for a family with young children and a couple celebrating an anniversary at the same time.Condé Nast Traveler readers voted it the number one resort in North Africa in 2025, and the reason is almost always the same: the service. Staff at Four Seasons properties worldwide are trained to remember guest preferences, but in Marrakech this manifests in small details that guests describe as almost clairvoyant. Your coffee order appears before you ask. The concierge has restaurant reservations ready before you mention dinner. Bleu d'Orange, the signature restaurant, serves Moroccan ingredients through a refined French lens, and the Sunday brunch is considered one of the best in the country. For families travelling with children who still want luxury that feels like luxury, nothing in Marrakech competes.

El Fenn From USD$440/night **El Fenn** did something no other Marrakech hotel had managed when it opened over 20 years ago: it made the medina riad feel genuinely contemporary. Co founded by art collector Vanessa Branson and designed by Willem Smit, the property weaves five interconnected riads into a single 28 room retreat with three swimming pools, a 1,300 square metre rooftop terrace and a rotating collection of contemporary African art that would hold its own in any London or New York gallery. New Moroccan ownership took over in November 2025 and has introduced art, fashion and interiors retreats alongside the core hotel offering.Every one of the 28 rooms is different. Jewel toned walls, camel leather floors, mid century Danish furniture and works by emerging Moroccan and African artists create spaces that feel like someone's impeccably decorated home rather than a hotel. The rooftop terrace deserves its own entry in this guide. At 1,300 square metres, it is one of the largest in the medina, and at sunset, with the Atlas Mountains turning pink and a Clementine Martini in hand, it delivers the single most atmospheric moment available in Marrakech for under USD$510 a night. Staff learn your name within hours, not days. For design conscious travellers who want personality over polish, **El Fenn** has been the answer for two decades and it still is. Key Facts - Rating: 9.4/10 - TripAdvisor 4.9 Excellent **Best for:** Best rooftop in Marrakech + contemporary art collection **Watch out:** Rooms are smaller than resort hotels · Deep in the medina, navigation takes practice · No gym or formal fitness facilities > “El Fenn is the reason I keep coming back to Marrakech.

The Oberoi Marrakech From USD$610/night Most luxury hotels in Marrakech are measured in square metres. **The Oberoi** is measured in acres, 28 of them, landscaped with citrus groves, reflecting pools and Mughal inspired pavilions that blend Indian and Moroccan architectural traditions with a confidence that only The Oberoi Group seems to manage. The 84 rooms and suites all have private terraces, and many include heated plunge pools with views over the gardens toward the Atlas Mountains. It is the quietest five star property in Marrakech by a considerable margin.The spa is the reason many guests book in the first place. It combines 5,000 years of Ayurvedic tradition with Morocco's own hammam culture, using locally sourced argan oil, rhassoul clay and orange blossom alongside Indian wellness techniques. The fine dining restaurant moves between Indian and Moroccan cuisine with equal authority, and the breakfast, served overlooking the gardens with views of the snow line on Toubkal, is outstanding. If you have done the medina riads and the palace hotels, **The Oberoi** offers something different: deep calm, serious space and the kind of service that anticipates rather than reacts. Key Facts - Rating: 9.3/10 - TripAdvisor 4.8 Excellent **Best for:** 28 acres of gardens + Ayurvedic spa **Watch out:** 30 minutes from the medina by car · Indian architecture may not suit those wanting a pure Moroccan feel · Can feel quiet outside peak season > “The gardens are stunning, the spa was the best in Morocco, and the food was world class.

Nobu Hotel Marrakech From USD$510/night **Nobu Hotel Marrakech** is the brand's first property in Africa and one of its most architecturally interesting worldwide. The 71 suites sit in the Hivernage district's Golden Triangle, and the design team has done something surprisingly subtle: rather than imposing Japanese style onto a Moroccan setting, they found the common ground. Both cultures value handmade materials, geometric pattern and the beauty of imperfection. The result is zellige tilework alongside wabi sabi ceramics, tadelakt plaster walls framing Japanese joinery, and spaces that feel neither Moroccan nor Japanese but authentically both.The Nobu restaurant serves the full menu you would expect, and the black cod miso is as precise here as it is in Mayfair. But the real draw is the rooftop. A circular pool deck with a cocktail bar and 360 degree panoramic views stretching from the Koutoubia Mosque minaret to the Atlas Mountains makes this arguably the best sunset location in the city. National Geographic Traveller featured the hotel in its January 2026 issue, singling out the cultural fusion as something that sets Marrakech apart from other North African destinations. For travellers who have done the classic riad experience and want something forward looking without losing the Moroccan sense of place, **Nobu** fills a gap nobody else has attempted. Key Facts - Rating: 9.2/10 - TripAdvisor 4.7 Excellent **Best for:** Nobu restaurant + 360° rooftop pool **Watch out:** Modern design may disappoint those seeking traditional architecture · No private pools in standard suites · Bar scene gets lively on weekends > “I was sceptical about a Nobu in Marrakech but this hotel has genuine soul.

Kasbah Tamadot From USD$570/night Richard Branson acquired **Kasbah Tamadot** from an antique dealer in 1998 while hot air ballooning over the Atlas Mountains, and that origin story tells you everything about the character of this place. Perched at 1,200 metres in the village of Asni, about 45 minutes south of Marrakech, the property overlooks the Toubkal National Park with views of North Africa's highest peak (4,167 metres). Terraced Berber villages, green valleys and snow capped ridges unfold beneath you in every direction, and the contrast with the sensory intensity of the medina is profound.The 28 rooms and suites are individually decorated with antiques Branson collected from his travels (Burmese artefacts alongside Moroccan textiles, Indian silk beside Atlas pottery), and many include private pools with uninterrupted mountain views. The infinity pool, cantilevered over the hillside with Toubkal framed dead centre, is one of the most photographed in Morocco. Private dining in a Berber tent under the stars, with a tagine cooked over charcoal and the Milky Way overhead, is consistently described by guests as the most memorable meal of their lives. **Kasbah Tamadot** is part of Virgin Limited Edition, Branson's collection of exclusive properties, and the intimate scale (never more than 56 guests) reflects that ethos. Key Facts - Rating: 9.5/10 - TripAdvisor 4.9 Excellent **Best for:** Atlas Mountain infinity pool + Berber tent dining **Watch out:** 45 minute drive from Marrakech · Limited nightlife and shopping nearby · Mountain roads can be challenging in poor weather > “After three days in the medina we needed somewhere peaceful and Kasbah Tamadot was perfect.

Dar Ahlam From USD$890/night **Dar Ahlam**, which translates to House of Dreams, is not a hotel in any conventional sense. There is no lobby, no restaurant, no menu, no minibar and no telephone in the rooms. What exists instead is a 14 suite restored kasbah in the Skoura palm oasis, about 320 kilometres southeast of Marrakech, where a team of staff choreograph your entire stay around observation rather than request. Meals appear wherever the team decides will be most memorable: in the rose garden, beside the pool, on a rooftop beneath the stars, on a hilltop overlooking the palm groves, or on a carpet laid in the desert with nothing but lanterns and silence for miles.The Skoura oasis contains over 300,000 palm trees and some of the oldest kasbahs in southern Morocco, and **Dar Ahlam** sits at the heart of it. The surrounding landscape, red earth, dramatic gorges and the foothills of the High Atlas, forms the backdrop to everything you do here. Condé Nast Traveler described the experience as stepping into a fable, and that remains the most accurate summary anyone has offered. Guests return year after year because no two stays are alike. The team redesign each visit from scratch. It is the kind of place that fundamentally shifts what you expect from a hotel. The four hour drive from Marrakech filters out anyone who is not serious about arriving. That is part of the design.

La Sultana Marrakech From USD$480/night **La Sultana** occupies five interconnected riads in the Kasbah district, the old fortified quarter that once housed Marrakech's ruling families. A 10 minute walk from Jemaa el Fna but insulated entirely from its chaos, the hotel manages a difficult balance: 28 rooms across five houses create enough scale for proper facilities (heated pool, rooftop terrace with Atlas views, a spa with one of the most acclaimed hammams in the city) while retaining the intimate character of a private residence.The interiors lean into the ornate end of Moroccan design: hand painted ceilings, carved stucco, silk curtains, antique furniture and floors tiled in original 16th century bejmat. Each suite is unique, and the best ones have private balconies overlooking the pool courtyard. The restaurant serves traditional Moroccan cuisine prepared with French technique, and the pastilla (pigeon pie with cinnamon and almonds) is among the best in the city. What distinguishes **La Sultana** from the larger palace hotels is warmth. The staff are not performing hospitality. They are practising it. Repeat guests are greeted like returning family, and first time visitors are treated with the same genuine care. In a city with no shortage of beautiful riads, that quality is rarer than it should be. Key Facts - Rating: 9.4/10 - TripAdvisor 4.9 Excellent **Best for:** Best hammam in Marrakech + five interconnected riads **Watch out:** Interiors are very ornate, may not suit minimalists · Some rooms are darker due to traditional riad architecture · Pool is beautiful but compact > “The hammam at La Sultana was the best spa experience of my life.

Palais Jamaï Fès From USD$440/night **Palais Jamaï Fès** is the most significant hotel reopening in North Africa in 2026. The property dates to the 19th century, when it served as the private residence of the Grand Vizir Jamai during the Alaoui dynasty. It opened as a luxury hotel in 1930 and for 84 years it was the definitive place to stay in Fes, drawing writers, diplomats and travellers who understood that Morocco's true cultural capital is not Marrakech but the ancient medina of Fes. When it closed in 2014, the city lost its most important hotel. The restoration, now complete, returns it to the Preferred Hotels portfolio with 94 rooms and a level of ambition that Condé Nast Traveler highlighted prominently in its March 2026 issue.Alain Ducasse, who holds more Michelin stars than any chef in history, is overseeing three restaurants and four bars including a sky bar positioned for panoramic views over the 1,200 year old Fes medina, the largest car free urban area in the world. The wellness facilities include traditional hammams, two swimming pools and a padel court. The architectural restoration has preserved original carved plaster, painted wood ceilings and courtyard gardens while introducing contemporary comfort throughout the 94 rooms. Fes has been waiting a decade for a hotel that matches its cultural weight. Early reports from the restoration suggest the wait has been worth it. Key Facts - Rating: 9.2/10 - TripAdvisor N/A (reopening 2026) **Best for:** 2026 heritage reopening + Alain Ducasse dining **Watch out:** Brand new reopening means early reviews are limited · Fes receives fewer direct flights than Marrakech · Heritage restorations occasionally experience delays > “I stayed at the original Palais Jamaï in 2012 and it was magical.

If I could only recommend one it would be Royal Mansour without hesitation. For the best value, El Fenn delivers design, hospitality and the best rooftop in the city at a fraction of the palace hotel prices. For something truly extraordinary, Dar Ahlam in the desert will stay with you for years. Whatever you choose, Morocco will exceed your expectations.
