La Maison Arabe (Marrakech)

Although luxury is only a state of mind, at the La Maison Arabe, this dream transforms into a very beautiful reality. Besides being one of the most magnificent hotels in the whole of Morocco, the La Maison Arabe has the finest location too. Offering an amazing blend of tradition and opulence, the hotel is the quintessence of Morocco’s hospitality, mysticism and tradition. The hotel has 17 rooms and suites, swimming pool, spa and a cooking school...something very unusual, especially in a hotel where there are translators who teach how to cook.

The view: Located at perhaps the best location in the pink city – Marrakech, La Maison Arabe promises its esteemed guests a lovely view onto the rooftop of the Bab Doukkala Mosque, one of the most prominent mosques in Marrakech. Archi type: La Maison Arabe accentuates the true meaning of luxury. Its aesthetics, rich architecture along with plush interiors and fine furnishings are a mark of excellent craftsmanship. This expertise has been handed down over centuries in order to restore and preserve the noble origins. Here the walls are covered with tadelakt (a coating that is hand polished with agate stones), gebs (intricately chiselled plaster), carved cedar, and the floors are made of bejmat (small sand-coloured bricks).

Bon appétit: Morocco is known for its exquisite cuisines and sinfully delicious preparations. Once you are at La Maison Arabe it is certain that appetisers would not be required to trigger those hunger pangs. It has several restaurants where one could savour traditional Moroccan cuisine. One could grab a light meal at the hotel’s Piano Bar or by the pool at the new restaurant “Les Trois Saveurs” (The Three Flavours), which offers International, Asian and inventive Moroccan dishes.

Around the corner: The La Maison Arabe is superbly located for sightseeing as it is in the heart of the city, the Jemaa el Fna (central square). Koutoubia (a 12th century minaret which is the symbol of Marrakech) and souks (the traditional marketplace) are at walking distance. After all the sightseeing the hotel also has the traditional hammam (bath) for relaxation.

From under the carpet: Since the city of Marrakech is nuzzled amidst tall buildings, the scope for a good view for those at the lower floors of the hotel is limited. In essence: A Moroccan holiday at the La Maison Arabe means a wholesome experience entailing fun, exploration, adventure, learning and pampering oneself to the maximum.
