ROYAL MANSOUR
Marrakech, Morocco
WHAT IS THE EXOTIC EXPERIENCE? Nothing spells romance quite like a private stay within an
ancient medina. The Royal Mansour is the result of pure inspiration, a dream made real and a
spectacular recreation of a beautiful way of life. Expect to walk down winding passageways, wander
among leafy courtyards and tarrying gardens to find peace and pleasure. Behind magnificent doors,
you will find chiseled bronze, intricately carved horseshoe arches and many other original yet creative
pieces of art around the grand estate. Covering three and a half hectares of land, this is the perfect
luxury haven in the heart of Marrakech.
WILL I BE CONVINCED? None of the 53 riads, a traditional Moroccan palace with an interior garden
or courtyard, are identical. Each has been individually furnished by craftsmen from Marrakech,
Essaouira, Fès and Meknès, with wood panelling, zellige tiling, tadlakt and plasterwork demonstrating
the infinite variety of Moroccan decorative arts. While within these ancient walls, cutting-edge
technology ranging from retractable glass roofs to a smart air-con system ensure maximum comfort
for every guest.
