Villa Des Orangers
At the foot of the Koutoubia Mosque, between the Royal Palace and Jemaa El Fna Square, the 5-star Villa des Orangers Hotel sits behind intricately carved doors. Within are flower-filled patios, fragrant citrus gardens, fountain-dotted courtyards, and pool oases. It’s a restful riad hotel, a renovated former private residence where dining is wherever you fancy, fitting around hammam treatments, henna workshops, or basking on the rooftop terrace.
The villa offers spacious yet intimate rooms and suites combining artisanal details, antique zellige tiles, and precious fabrics. Some open onto a private pool; others onto its flower-filled terraces. After a day exploring the souks, retreat to the subterranean Echo Spa for a treatment or relaxation in the vast hammam. For dining, classic Moroccan dishes blend with French and Mediterranean influences, to be enjoyed in the opulent dining room or in the shade of trees or by the fireside, depending on the season. A snug spot for a cocktail is the hotel’s Casablanca-inspired bar. A rooftop terrace offers stunning views of the mosques and buildings of the old city, and in the distance, the Atlas Mountains. Within the gardens, there are henna tattooing and calligraphy workshops, and Moroccan tea ceremonies are held on request.
