The Oberoi, Marrakech

outstanding hotel built like a palace. incredible architecture and craftsmanship. ultra luxurious rooms. very expensive, but if you can afford to spoil yourself once, this is the hotel in marrakech.

Outstanding hotel, beautiful and peaceful setting, great accommodation but best of all the staff, without a doubt some of the best I have encountered, friendly, efficient, courteous and great ambassadors for The Oberoi brand and for the nation of Morocco.

Having being a frequent traveller and staying in hotels, cruise ships, everywhere from Asia, Middle East to America, I have not stayed in a hotel like this before. From entering the hotel, to departure, the detail and care taken by everyone was superb, especially Mamdouh Milad, Aya and our refular waiter Rizq. On arrival due to this being our first stay after our marriage we were greated with flowers and towels scented with orange blossom. We had lunch and were told our private villa was ready. Flowers and baloons in the room, nothing was too much for them, they also served a superb breakfast and the indian resturaunt inside the hotel was superb. During checkout they washed our vehicle for us, also greeted us with a farewell wave while we were leaving the premises. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to go marrakech to relax and spend some time out of the city. However they do offer 2 shuttle busses a day to the centre should you wish to go there. I will definitely god willing be back to the hotel.

As part of our 12-day Morocco tour with Aisha Morocco Tours, we had the privilege of staying at The Oberoi Marrakech. This riad-style luxury hotel was truly exceptional in every way. The architecture and gardens were breathtaking, combining traditional Moroccan design with modern elegance. Our suite was spacious, beautifully decorated, and offered absolute comfort. The service was outstanding — every member of the staff was attentive, professional, and always ready to assist with a smile. From the relaxing spa to the fine dining restaurants and peaceful atmosphere, The Oberoi Marrakech exceeded all expectations. It was an unforgettable highlight of our journey and a perfect place to experience world-class hospitality in Morocco.

The dramatic public space, paths lined with olive trees and excellent service really made the stay luxurious. The staff made the effort to be present and welcoming, greeting guests consistently at the entrance and throughout the grounds. Even at the end, the team stood outside in the high heat over 39 C/100F waving us off until we were out of sight. I particularly appreciated when Omar not only offered us a buggy ride but checked the seat temperature and put down a towel for us. Although it was hot, we enjoyed the off peak rates and seeing the local sites without the long lines. Arriving at the villa It was entertaining for us as my husband proceeded to show off his fly swatting skills swiftly downing 5 or 6 with a towel, but some guests may not be similarly amused. It made the bountiful welcome amenity assortment of chocolates, dates and pastries less enjoyable. We asked for housekeeping not to leave our door open when cleaning and didn’t have much of an issue after. We did have a small lizard in the shower, but maybe this comes with having villa doors that open into the garden. Luckily didn’t have any mosquito issues in Marrakech. The private pool was a very ample size for swimming. We never made it to the spa but we did have room service. The Caesar salad was quite large. The assortment of Moroccan appetizers and pizza were good but the vegetable soup was too salty. Not sure if it is typical of the property, in August or chance, but there were many families with young children which disturbed the tranquility of using the private pool and dining in the restaurants. Early breakfast recommended. (waffles & crepes served with an over abundance of Nutella so you can request it without) We thought it was odd that they left the fire burning in the fountain out front using fuel and creating more heat when it was already so hot and we also wondered about the sustainability of the water being used to maintain the grounds.
