We love: L’Hotel Marrakech
Combining Moroccan craftsmanship with an air of Thirties decadence, this 19th-century riad offers respite from the bustling souks of the nearby medina.
About L’Hotel Marrakech
Adding hotels to the long list of family ventures, L’Hotel Marrakech is the first luxury bolthole by former fashion designer Jasper Conran. Tucked away behind a studded fortress door, the converted palace radiates relaxed elegance with simple white-washed walls and high zouac ceilings in the five individually designed suites. Each features antique furniture, four-poster beds and artworks from Jasper’s own collection.
