La Maison des Oliviers

This gorgeous little hotel is a sensational find. You feel like you’re in some Instagram influences video it’s pretty as a picture. Rooms are a good size pool area is secluded quiet pretty and lovely. Staff are extremely attentive and helpful. You get the sense about the complex was probably once out in the countryside, but the suburbs have gradually caught up with it. The area seems unpromising when you arrive, like much of the new city of Marrakesh where is litter lining the street and combination of predevelopment wasteland and new concrete apartments. The hotel itself is a little oasis sitting within this area, and once inside you would not believe the city was encroaching. It’s quiet, tranquil and absolutely beautiful. We tried the Moroccan specialities at the restaurant and were slightly disappointed, however lunch by the poolside was very reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. We visit .

We tried the Moroccan specialities at the restaurant and we’re slightly disappointed, however lunch by the poolside was very reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. We visited in low season so the hotel was quiet with a few other couples and family staying, almost all of whom were French. On our first night the air-conditioning in our room was not working properly, we were immediately switched into a new room with amazingly efficient air-conditioning, nothing here seems to be too much trouble for the staff. As the hotel is a few kilometres outside central Marrakesh taxis are required, it’s about £10 for a family of four to get to the city more if you’re coming back late at night Overall, we cannot fault or stay here. If this hotel was in Tuscany or the south of France, you’d be paying three or four times the price we paid. It’s incredibly reasonable - perfect if you want a quiet break as a couple or family.
