Marrakech resort leads the way

The Royal Palm Marrakech, the latest luxury development by Beachcomber Hotels in Morocco, has followed in the footsteps of the Royal Palm Mauritius by being added to ‘The Leading Hotels of the World’.

Impressive work considering it is barely a year old. This globally recognised seal of excellence and luxury will allow the hotel – and its 134 luxurious, elegant suites and villas – to strengthen its offering to an international clientele.

Nestled in the heart of an age-old olive grove and facing the Atlas Mountains, the architecture of this jewel of a hotel is inspired by Berber culture with touches of Mauritian style.

Its remarkable range of facilities includes a spectacular golf course that showcases the native flora of the location, in turn delivering an eye-catching and challenging course for players of all standards.

There is also a magnificent spa – the only one in Morocco affiliated with the Clarins brand – and three exceptional restaurants.

All of this is accompanied by the customary elegance and service of the Royal Palm brand.

The Royal Palm Mauritius has been a member of ‘The Leading Hotels of the World’ for the past two decades.

Located on the sun-drenched north-west coast of the island, this luxurious boutique hotel basks in renewed splendour after its renovation in October 2014.

Steeped in a unique and exclusive atmosphere, it is praised for its natural charm, timeless elegance, impeccable service and fine cuisine.

The ‘Leading Hotels of The World’ is the world’s largest luxury hotel collection, with around 430 of the most prestigious hotels, resorts and spas in more than 80 countries. Established in 1928 by several influential and forward-thinking European hoteliers, it started with 38 initial members.

To become a member, a hotel must meet exacting standards of excellence and welcome guests in the best possible conditions. Member hotels share a common desire for excellence while retaining their unique individual styles.
