The five-star Hotel Sahrai, designed by the architect and designer Christophe Pillet, enjoys spectacular views of the largest medina in the Arab world, taking in twelve centuries of the city’s history in one fell swoop. An alternative to the shady isolation of the riads and the impersonal feel of the big resorts, its architecture on a human scale is a combination of tradition and contemporary style.
The Berbère Palace, Ouarzazate
  • Built in 1991, Le Berbère Palace opens the doors to the desert and its captivating landscapes. In a sumptuous and colorful decor inspired by the local architecture of the Ksours and Kasbahs, it proudly displays its exterior walls covered with adobe evoking the buildings of the region. Ouarzazate is an essential step to access the desert; which makes it the destination of choice for all adventurers and nature lovers. It is also a destination which responds perfectly to family vacations; a peaceful city, where it is good to walk, a region that promises tranquility and escape.
Les Jardins de la Koutoubia
  • In the heart of the Medina of a thousand and one scents and colors of Marrakech, very close to the legendary Jemaâ el Fna square, established in the freshness of the walls of Riad Ouarzazi dating from the 13th century, Les Jardins de la Koutoubia is a prestigious establishment appreciated for the quality of its service, a luxurious Spa and the diversity of its table.
