Villa des Orangers offers all the picturesque charm of a riad setting with five-star service. Reached down an inauspicious corridor minutes away from the bustling souks, the minute you open the door onto its pretty orange tree-filled and galleried fountain courtyards, you'll know you have found an oasis of calm, despite being situated in the heart of Marrakech.
One of the first things you will notice is that, unusually for a riad in the medina, Villa des Orangers has three swimming pools, a plunge pool on the small but sociable roof terrace, a large heated pool in the sheltered courtyard and one in a private riad. If you are still finding it hard to unwind, there are also cabins for massage and a traditional Moroccan Hammam.
Decorated in ornate traditional Moroccan style, its 27 spacious, tranquil air-conditioned suites and rooms are furnished with hand-carved furniture and equipped with all the latest gadgetry. Several have private roof terraces offering wonderful mountain views. Three two-storey suites have sumptuous living rooms and bedrooms, both with fireplaces and balconies overlooking the courtyard.
Added extras like soft leather slippers and free laundry facilities demonstrate the amazing customer service levels at this hotel.
Delicious light Moroccan lunches are included in the price. With three patios, three salons, and numerous tiny candlelit lounges off the courtyards, there are plenty of opportunities for private dining, or choose the formal restaurant.
All in all, this is a magical base from which to explore the wonders of Marrakech.
