The Top 53 Hotels Near Spa Royal Mansour Marrakech
-
Every guest gets their own riad, not a room, complete with a rooftop plunge pool, a private courtyard, and a butler who will arrange a Bentley to the airport. The hotel was built at the direction of King Mohammed VI to be a living showcase of Moroccan craft, and the tile work, carved cedar ceilings, and mother-of-pearl details make that ambition hard to miss. Staff move through underground tunnels so the serenity stays unbroken. It holds a Forbes Five Star and sits at number 13 on the World's 50 Best Hotels list.
-
Winston Churchill painted Marrakech from his third-floor suite here, and the hotel has been setting an impossible bar for guests ever since. La Mamounia is a grand Marrakech resort where Moorish arches, Art Deco edges, and twenty acres of orange trees and bougainvillea compete for your attention. Jean-Georges Vongerichten runs two restaurants, Pierre Hermé handles the pastry, and the lantern-lit spa has been on everyone's mood board for years. It holds a spot on the World's 50 Best Hotels.
-
A copper freestanding bathtub beside a bedside fireplace in the Master Suite tells you immediately that Riad Sakkan is not your typical medina guesthouse. Twelve rooms in a traditional inward-facing courtyard house, but the palette and the art are sharply contemporary, reflecting Mouassine's place as Marrakech's most fashionable quarter. The rooftop runs from breakfast through sunset cocktails. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.
-
A 28-room riad tucked inside the Kasbah, close enough to the Saadian Tombs that you can hear the tour groups pass and then close the door on them. Courtyards shaded by orange trees, a pool for mint tea or actual swimming, a spa, and a handful of rooms that lean hard into ornate Moroccan detailing. The souks are steps away whenever you want them, and very much not your problem when you don't.
-
A riad hotel in the Marrakech medina that looks, improbably, like a Copenhagen loft had a love affair with a Moroccan courtyard. The color palette runs to cool neutrals and warm wood, which makes the carved plasterwork pop rather than disappear into the usual sensory pile-up. Eight rooms, adults only, two pools, and dinners served family-style at a communal table with a menu that runs Nordic technique through Moroccan ingredients. Holds a Michelin Key.
-
Eight rooms tucked inside a traditional riad in the Mouassine medina, with a rooftop that pulls double duty as spa and restaurant. The architecture leans into light and open space rather than the shadowy warren you might expect, which sounds like a small thing until you've spent a day in the souks. Part of a two-property Laz family; this one is the slightly larger sibling, though "larger" remains a relative term in a city where intimacy is the whole point.
-
A riad in one of the oldest quarters of the medina, Dar Al Dall translates to "House of Shadows," which turns out to be a design brief as much as a name. Five suites sit around a courtyard where hand-chiseled tilework and carved plaster archways do the decorating. There's a hammam, a rooftop, and an open kitchen where couscous gets made the slow way. The whole thing holds a Michelin Key and leans hard into the no-phone, be-present premise.
-
Victorian freestanding bathtubs in a medina courtyard mansion is the pitch, and Riad Tarabel delivers it without a single piece of brass camel kitsch in sight. This riad hotel earns a Michelin Key for a reason: Second Empire furniture, a courtyard pool, a spa, and dinner served wherever you happen to feel like sitting. It runs closer to a very grand private house than a conventional hotel, which is exactly the point.
-
Four suites in a traditional medina courtyard mansion, owned by Milanese who packed their taste and left the kitsch at home. Riad Due holds a Michelin Key, and the design earns the attention. The logic of a riad is that the city stays outside, reduced to the call to prayer and a rooftop glimpse, while everything within the walls stays quiet and stylish. The souk is a short walk; the kitchen will cook for you privately if you'd rather not leave.
-
A heavy carved wooden door on rue Sidi Mimoun opens into two early-20th-century residences built around a pair of courtyards, one with a long heated pool, the other with a fountain and scattered sofas. This Relais & Châteaux holds a Michelin Key. Rooms lean into ornate plasterwork and carved wood; suites claim private terraces over the courtyard. The rooftop plunge pool has the Atlas Mountains as a backdrop, which feels almost unfair.
-
A riad a few minutes' walk from Jemaa el-Fna, Dar Mo'Da keeps things intimate with five suites, two pools, and a rooftop that makes the whole medina look like a film set. The courtyard, carved arcades, and salon alcoves pile on the atmosphere without tipping into theme-park territory. A marble hammam and massage room round it out for anyone who needs an excuse to stay inside all day.
-
Seven interconnected riads behind an unmarked door in the medina, with 14 rooms that each read like a different artist's fever dream. Izza leans into the era when Marrakech was the world's most glamorous escape hatch, and the tilework, sculpted plaster, and art collection suggest no one has quite let go of that idea. There's a spa, a plunge pool, and a rooftop bar. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.
-
Two plunge pools and a rooftop hammam tucked into a residential medina lane say a lot about what Riad Camilia is trying to do. This small riad hotel runs just two rooms and four suites, each one mixing Moroccan and Parisian sensibilities in ways that feel considered rather than assembled. The courtyard has the hush of a private house, which is exactly the point. Evening dinner, tailored to whoever is staying, is the kind of thing you book around.
-
Heavy wooden doors open onto a courtyard tiled in ultramarine, with a reflecting pool and brass lanterns that glow at dusk. This intimate boutique hotel sits on a quiet medina street, its rooms each individually furnished, with original wood-beamed ceilings and ornamental mirrors. Mornings mean lavish Moroccan breakfasts poolside; afternoons bring mint tea. The rooftop terrace is where you watch the sunset turn the old city improbably pink.
-
A riad tucked just off the lanes of Mouassine, with desert-toned walls, poured terrazzo, and sculpted brass that make the medina's chaos feel very far away. Each room is individually shaped, furnished with hand-finished pieces by Moroccan artisans and vintage rugs sourced from Bab El Khemis. The rooftop plunge pool comes edged with ochre daybeds. A leafy courtyard and an honesty bar keep the whole place mercifully low-key.
-
Several restored houses stitched together by an architect who clearly had a long-standing obsession with Marrakech, Riad Dar Saad is a boutique riad hotel tucked into the Dar El Bacha district. Rooms and suites are arranged around courtyards with dipping pools and hand-cut tilework. The hammam, Les Bains de Ninon, runs traditional treatments with natural products. Curated local art turns up in alcoves where you least expect it.
-
Seven rooms in the Dar el Bacha quarter, steps from Ben Youssef Mosque, and quiet enough to feel like a private house someone forgot to tell you about. This riad hotel has a spa, in-house dining, and an elevator, which sounds minor until you've hauled luggage up a traditional Marrakech staircase. A driver meets you at the airport, so you never have to negotiate the medina's labyrinth on arrival. The Michelin Guide has selected it among its hotels.
-
Five rooms, all different, in a riad the owner actually lived in before opening it to guests, which explains why it feels less like a boutique hotel and more like borrowing a very stylish friend's house. The Italian heritage shows in the contemporary furnishings, but the Moroccan bones, the courtyard plunge pool, and the rooftop terrace with its medina views keep the whole thing grounded in exactly the kind of seclusion you came to Marrakech for.
-
Seven suites behind a carved wooden door near the Bahia Palace make Riad Antara feel less like a hotel and more like borrowing a very well-connected friend's Marrakech house. Zellige tilework, Moroccan textiles, and a traditional hammam set the tone, while the rooftop trades the medina's noise for bougainvillea and birdsong. The owners press babouche slippers on arrival and serve breakfast up in the sun.
-
Five rooms in a renovated Medina mansion, each one furnished by Belgian artist Laurence Leenaert, whose lifestyle brand LRNCE supplies the bespoke homewares, hand-carved pieces, and custom terrazzo underfoot. This adults-only riad guesthouse near the Bahia Palace is the kind of place where the stained glass was chosen with genuine intention. A jacaranda tree anchors the courtyard, breakfast lands on the rooftop, and the hammam opens whenever you ask.
-
Six rooms, three terraces, and a hammam tucked into the Bab Doukkala medina, this intimate riad sits inside a house that feels like it has always been here. The Italian owners renovated with a light touch, and the restraint shows: no maximalist riad theater, just cool tiles, good proportions, and a pool terrace that earns a long afternoon. The cooking stays Moroccan, the hammam stays traditional, and the quiet is conspicuous.
-
The carved doors alone take a moment to get past, and that sets the tone for this riad in the medina. Suites lean hard into velvet and fine woodwork, the hammam is small and cozy, and the roof terrace has a plunge pool for surviving the afternoon heat. The cook runs both traditional meals and cooking lessons. Not for anyone who finds maximalism exhausting, but then those people probably shouldn't be in Marrakech.
-
Six suites dressed in white, with enough ornate tilework and hand-carved detail to keep you staring at the ceiling well past checkout. L'Hôtel Marrakech is a riad hotel in the medina, redesigned by Jasper Conran with the kind of taste that looks effortless and costs the opposite. The courtyard, pool, and terrace arrange themselves so conveniently around doing nothing that the souks outside feel like a choice rather than an obligation.
-
A six-room riad in the old medina where the courtyard does what Moroccan courtyards are supposed to do: blue zellige pool, orange tree overhead, daybeds arranged for serious idling. The owners are Moroccan and Australian, and the rooms mix arched cedar doors and tadelakt walls with Florence Broadhurst textiles, which sounds unlikely and looks good. Mint tea masterclasses and storytelling soirées are on offer, and the rooftop bar pours sunset mocktails with full commitment to the ritual.
-
A 14-room riad in the medina's tangle of alleys near Bab Doukkala, with one of the higher rooftop terraces in the city and a full 360-degree sweep of rooftops and Atlas peaks. Breakfast arrives wherever you'd like to sit. Two restaurants draw their own crowd: La Table du Riad and Naama, a Mediterranean room. The Michelin Guide has it on their selected hotels list, which given the competition in Marrakech, says something.
-
Two interconnected houses tucked into one of the Medina's quieter corners, Ryad Dyor is a ten-room boutique riad you reach entirely on foot, which filters out exactly the right guests. The courtyard plunge pool, rooftop terrace, and small hammam do most of the persuading. Rooms mix Moroccan antiques with pieces from Europe and further east, landing somewhere between collector's den and guesthouse. Meals can be arranged in advance, so leaving is optional.
-
Finding Riad 144 is its own small adventure, through a warren of alleys north of the souk in the Sidi Ben Slimane district until you hit a heavy front door. Inside, the contrast with the medina's chaos is the whole point, and the design commits harder than most riads dare, running from dark and moody to bright and airy across eight rooms. The courtyard, the hammam, the rooftop at sunset, and the traditional Moroccan meals are all present and correct.
-
The rooftop wraps a full circle around the building, so the Atlas mountains meet Marrakech's rooftops in every direction at once. This is a luxury hotel in the Hivernage district, 71 suites deep, with interiors that blend the Nobu brand's forward-leaning style into something warmer and more North African than you might expect. The Pearl spa sits underground, the Nobu restaurant anchors the ground floor, and the social spaces quietly outshine the rooms.
-
Five rooms, white on white, tucked down a medina alley in Marrakech: Dar Seven is a riad hotel stripped of the usual riot of color, its Italian owners apparently preferring calm to kaleidoscope. The open courtyard and carved arches are still very much Moroccan, but the palette reads more like a boutique hotel in Milan. The rooftop terrace handles breakfast and sunset drinks, and the staff will put together a Moroccan dinner if you ask early enough.
-
Canopy beds dramatic enough to warrant their own sightlines anchor the suites at this classic Medina riad, where carved wood and patterned textiles do the decorating and a hammam does the recovering. The rooftop looks out over the old city toward the Atlas Mountains, which makes evening tea feel less like a ritual and more like a reasonable excuse to stay up. Selected by the Michelin Guide.
-
Sofitel's sprawling five-floor complex sits in the Hivernage, the sensible middle ground between the medina's chaos and the far-flung Palmeraie resorts. Nearly 350 rooms means this is no riad, but the low-rise layout keeps it from feeling like a convention hotel, and the spa is genuinely large enough to make the city feel very far away. The Paris-meets-Morocco interiors do their job without apology.
-
Ancient palms and citrus trees fill the courtyard of this boutique hotel in the Kasbah district, where hammocks are strung between trees and the mood is closer to a private villa than a riad on the tourist circuit. Adobe walls, carved woodwork, and shaded patios set the tone, while some rooms add solariums or fireplaces. The Saadian Tombs are practically next door, which is either very convenient or a reminder that history never really clocks out.
-
An eight-room boutique hotel a short walk from the Majorelle Gardens, Maison Brummell Majorelle rises behind terrazzo walls like a modernist sandcastle. Inside, smooth stone floors, tadelakt walls, and a staircase that looks carved from solid rock keep things sculptural and quiet. Rooms open onto either a private deck or a garden with an outdoor tub. The hammam has an indoor plunge pool, and nightcaps come from an honesty bar beside a fireplace. It holds a Michelin Key.
-
Fifty acres of ancient olive trees and more than a hundred thousand roses frame this Forbes Five Star resort on the edge of Marrakech, with the Atlas Mountains filling in the background. Private villas draw on Berber and Andalusian-Arabic architecture, each with its own walled garden and plunge pool, all in a desert palette that manages to feel genuinely calm rather than designed-within-an-inch-of-its-life.
-
Forty acres of bougainvillea, palm, and olive trees surround the pink pavilions of this Forbes Four Star resort, kept low so the Atlas Mountains stay visible on the horizon. The spa runs two separate pavilions and leans hard into Moroccan ingredients: saffron, argan oil, rhassoul clay. The kind of place where you plan to explore Marrakech and spend three days by the pool instead.
-
Rose-pink pavilions rise among date palms just outside Marrakech, the whole compound modeled loosely on a sultan's palace, with Moorish archways, mosaic floors, and lanterns that earn their keep at dusk. Amanjena is a small luxury resort, 32 suites and pavilions, each arranged around its own private courtyard. On site there's a spa, tennis, golf, a Moroccan restaurant, and an izakaya with a robata grill, which is either an odd pairing or a very confident one.
-
Olive trees line the drive and the ochre buildings seem to rise straight out of the Atlas foothills, which sets the tone before you've even checked in. This Forbes Four Star resort in the Al Maaden district keeps 130 rooms and suites, most with private terraces facing either the mountains or the gardens. Zellige tilework, hand-carved plaster, and bronze lanterns do the decorating. Three pools, a golf course next door, and a spa rooted in Moroccan ritual fill the days.
-
Arabian horses roam 15 acres at the foot of the Atlas Mountains, which tells you most of what you need to know about the mood here. Selman Marrakech is a luxury resort where the owners' equestrian obsession shapes everything, from stable visits and dressage lessons to stallions performing during Sunday brunch. The Chenot spa, the pool, and the design are all suitably dazzling, but it's the horses that give the place its personality.
-
Storks nest in the palms at this La Palmeraie resort, fifteen minutes from the medina on two hectares of gardens where the city's noise simply fails to arrive. Suites run from rattan and teal-tiled rooms to botanical-mural suites with cream sofas and shaggy rugs. Two pools, a spa, a yoga shala, and two restaurants make it easy to treat Marrakech as a view rather than an obligation. Selected by the Michelin Guide.
-
A 25-suite palace hotel in the Palmeraie, Marrakech's palm-grove district, where your airport transfer arrives in a London black cab because of course it does. Suites are called Harims, meaning a palace apartment, and they're furnished with the spare confidence of rooms that don't need to try hard. A floodlit pool, a billiards room, a cigar selection, spa treatments in a vaulted cellar. The Michelin Guide awarded it one Key.
-
Out in the Palmeraie, the palm grove where Marrakech goes to breathe, Palais Ronsard is an expansive colonial-style resort that wraps around multiple pools and gardens as if it has nowhere to be. The interiors lean into the grand period style without apology. A hammam spa, two restaurants, a cocktail bar, and a pool house keep you from having to venture anywhere, which in the Marrakech heat is a design feature. It holds a Michelin Key.
-
Seven acres of gardens and groves spread through the Palmeraie, just outside the medina's fray, making Les Deux Tours feel more like a private compound than a hotel. The 44 rooms and suites are split among villas and pavilions done in a style that nods to Marrakech's romantic past without cosplaying it. A hammam, a gastronomic restaurant, a poolside option, and, for some reason, a sushi bar round out the picture.
-
Five houses spread across the Palmeraie, each with its own pool and gardens, and the kind of décor that treats Moroccan and broader African craft as something to live with rather than pose next to. This is a resort where the owners, an ethnobotanist and a Senegalese-Parisian designer, built excursions by bike, sidecar, and camelback around respectful cultural access. Dinners move between a communal room and the sprawling gardens depending on the evening's mood.
-
The design lifts from the Medersa Ben Youssef, a revered piece of Moroccan Islamic architecture, and the effect across 28 acres of gardens and orchards is suitably monumental. This is a grand resort hotel well outside the medina, so expect Atlas mountain views, enormous suites that some villas stretch into riad territory, an Ayurvedic spa, and three restaurants ranging from fine-dining Indian to poolside plates. A free shuttle runs to the center when the grounds stop being enough.
-
Peacocks roam freely among the olive groves and jasmine here, which sets the tone for this six-suite villa near Marrakech's old city walls. Charles Boccara designed the architecture, and Bill Willis furnished it, a pairing whose social world once included Yves Saint Laurent. Carved cedar, emerald zellige fireplaces, and a heated pool in the gardens keep things from feeling like a museum, though the black-and-white photo albums left on the tables do lean that way.
-
Twenty minutes from the medina's organized chaos, this Forbes Four Star resort trades narrow alleys for clean lines, manicured gardens, and what is reportedly the largest pool in Morocco. The riad-style spa runs through hammams, rhassoul clay wraps, and argan oil massages with quiet ceremony. The 18-hole golf course and collection of private villas mean guests rarely need to leave, which is either a selling point or a cautionary tale, depending on why you came.
-
A keyhole-shaped door in a coral facade opens onto a Indo-Moorish villa about eighteen kilometers outside Marrakech, where terracotta passageways connect firelit lounges, mosaic dining rooms, and open courtyards before spilling into gardens around an olive-tree-framed pool. Nine rooms and suites are decorated with carved doors, ornamental lanterns, and green marble soaking tubs. The place rents as a whole villa, too, if you have that kind of friends-trip ambition.
-
At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, about twenty minutes outside Marrakech, this small eco-resort runs hard against the assumption that Morocco is all terracotta and dust. Fourteen rooms and suites open onto either garden terraces or mountain views, and the whole place is quiet in a way the medina never will be. There's a spa, a hammam, poolside lunch, and dinners that lean deep into Moroccan flavors.
-
Geometric entryway drama gives way to rolling Atlas foothills in every direction at this sixteen-room countryside retreat just south of Marrakech. The team calls it a "peasant palace," and the name earns its irony: every room has its own outdoor space, the restaurant terrace overlooks open hills, and the pool just reflects sky. The décor leans rustic but skips the usual riad signifiers in favor of vivid textiles and what can only be called scruffy-chic lamps.
-
Less than an hour from Marrakech, Caravan by Habitas Agafay drops you into the rocky Agafay Desert with the Atlas Mountains sitting on the horizon. The 20 tented lodges borrow from Berber design and run on solar power, though the beds and stone terraces signal that roughing it isn't really the point. Pools, a spa, a yoga pavilion, and camel rides fill the days, with Moroccan cooking at the open-air restaurant to finish them.
-
Eighteen plush safari-style tents arranged around a pool in the Agafay desert, close enough to Marrakech for a day trip but far enough to feel like the exact middle of nowhere. Each tent has a king bed, a living room, a hot shower, and a wood-burning stove for cold desert nights, all decorated with Berber touches and a sharp contemporary eye. Horseback rides, mountain biking, and a nearby lake fill the days when the pool loses its appeal.
-
A luxury desert camp on the rocky Agafay plateau, about an hour from Marrakech's medina chaos, where each private tent comes with a freestanding soaking tub positioned to face the open desert. The infinity pool looks out toward the Atlas Mountains, evenings run to Moroccan dinners with live music under a sky with almost no light pollution, and the name is not incidental: this is a place people come to stargaze in earnest.
-
Richard Branson's mother spotted this estate while her son was off planning a balloon expedition, which tells you everything about the kind of people who end up here. A luxury hotel at the foot of the Atlas Mountains, about forty-five minutes from Marrakech, it holds an antiques dealer's old collection inside traditional Moorish walls, a deep-blue reflecting pool in the courtyard, and ten Berber tent suites with Jacuzzis for the glampers among us. The Michelin Guide awarded it 3 Keys.
