I came to surprise my wife for our 10 year anniversary. She had the time of her life. We really enjoyed our Pool Villa. It was a shame we could only do 1 night but in future we plan to do 3 nights. We most definitely have to come back. We absolutely loved our butler Yassine. What a great guy!! If we come back we will definitely be requesting Yassine. The breakfast was the best we have ever had. The staff were so accommodating. Dinner at the Ling Ling was incredible with an incredible view of the poolside. That pool Villa is the best room we have ever experienced. That was incredible. Wow. Thank you so much Mandarin Oriental. I have told so many friends about how great this trip was.

Not quite sure where to start with this review…words like exceptional, incredible, stunning and so so special just don’t do this hotel justice. Yes it is pricey, probably the only con I can think of because everything else just blew us away. A real life oasis. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so special and the service is incomparable. All the staff, everyone, thank you so much ☺️ . Then you have the villas of course that kind of takes your breath away. The hotel gardens, which of course you can’t get a sense of how truly beautiful they are, as you walk towards your villa, all you can smell is jasmine and roses, genuinely, I kid you not. The main pool is stunning, (I’m running out of adjectives) we had it to ourselves pretty much the whole day we sat by it. The spa….my fiancé and I both had the traditional hamman which was the perfect way to kick off our holiday, clean off the London grime and prep our skin for some sun. The food was delicious, our 15 year old son loved Hakasan most, I loved the breakfast, my fiancé loved it all. Last but not least, Oussama, our Butler, was INCREDIBLE, thank you for looking after us and making our holiday so special.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Mandarin Oriental Marrakech — truly a five-star experience from start to finish! The property is stunning, the service impeccable, and every detail thoughtfully curated to make guests feel special. The hotel’s location is perfect: just a quick 10-minute drive from the Medina, and the staff seamlessly arranged tours, transfers, and all the details that made our trip so memorable and effortless. The hotel is quiet, peaceful, so pretty and has everything you need! During our stay, we visited several other high-profile and popular hotels for dinners and drinks — and we were so happy we chose to stay at the Mandarin Oriental. Without question, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. A special thanks to Amine, who was incredible — always accessible, endlessly helpful, and who made everything so easy, fun, and stress-free. His care and attention truly elevated our experience. We cannot give enough praise to Amine -- he even helped us find the channel showing the Wimbledon final and picked up medicine for my son. The best stay we could have imagined — can’t wait to come back!

From arrival to departure attention to detail was very impressive. Especially around the pool where the Lifeguard was very attentive, ensuring that shade was always provided where requested, even moving umbrellas to cope with movements of the sun. The villa was spotlessly clean, and the restaurants likewise, where the food choices were very impressive. All round an excellent stay
