I was before in Marrakech, and that hotel was not very good. See also my review of a few years ago. The Mamounia was closed for renovations at that time. So this time I was curious what to expect about the hotel. Well, the hotel is beautiful. Everything is new, stylish, french and morrocan style. I heard some people saying... more

This hotel reopened in October 09 after a 3 1/2 year renovation. It is now under the management of a GM who previously managed the Ritz in Paris and the Pierre in NYC and it shows. Service was excellent and very friendly (there were a couple of minor snafus--very minor, not worth detailing). The hotel has been completely redesigned (Jacques... more

La Mamounia has risen like a phoenix .After being closed for years it is now simply fantastic the decoration by Jacques Garcia is magnificent we adored the same feeling like that of the coste in paris ,We especially liked the Italian bar and restaurant .The food is delicious the service impeccable . the rooms and bathrooms upgraded and beautiful.There simply... more

We stayed at La Mamounia, courtesy of my employer, so the cost wasn't an issue. Had we paid, I believe our perception might have been different. Anyway, we had a fantastic time. Our room was very comfortable, the gardens were lovely and the food was OK, but nothing exceptional. Generally, the staff were helpful and friendly, but the door staff... more

I am sure if i visited this hotel 40 years ago it would have been exactly the same. Of all the places in the world i have stayed i found this the strangest. Guests dressing up for breakfast,lunch, afternoon tea and then obviously only a jacket and tie would do for your evening meal! After your evening meal you went... more

The location and room could not have been better. The desk staff were kind enough to arrange a private guided tour to the Atlas mountains and a second day of local private sightseeing. The downside-We repeatedly asked about breakfast and were told we were too late! for breakfast. This was impossible to believe unless we were supposed to go down... more

We stayed at La Mamounia for 4 nights in March 2006. We chose it for its historical reputation and although it now has a corporate feel to it, we were not disappointed. The room was lovely, with a view of Kotoubia mosque (although a bit noisy facing the road). spotlessly clean as was the bathroom. We enjoyed breakfast, indoors, it... more

La Mamounia is the ideal hotel if you enjoy dated decor, fusty bedrooms and being ripped off in each of the sad, shabby bars and restaurants! Compliments aside, there is always the spectacle of watching the local sparrows plunging their dirty little beaks into the milk jugs on the breakfast tables before you've had your cornflakes, to get the day... more

It all started out so well. Beautiful gardens, impressive reception, luxurious restaurants. Then we were shown our room. Obviously the carpet, curtains and bed linen were to celebrate Churchill's arrival! First tip - pay the extra for a pool view room. Our superior North side had no view, even grilles to prevent you seeing the eyesore of the reception roofing... more
