  The undisputed grande dame of Marrakesh is La Mamounia. Since it opened in the 1920s, the hotel has played host to statesmen including Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt, as well as Marlene Dietrich and Charlie Chaplin. Alfred Hitchcock used it as the backdrop for his 1956 version of The Man Who Knew Too Much. Apart from its celebrity guest list, La Mamounia is famed for its opulent architecture and landscaping. The hotel reopened its doors in 2009 following a three-year, $180 million renovation. Insider Tip: If you can’t make it to the hotel, pick up a copy of Laure Verchere’s coffee-table book La Mamounia for a close look at the hotel's craftsmanship and design

  It's certainly luxurious, to the highest degree, but it doesn't give an authentic Morrocan experience. It caters to the wealthy businessman, and probably does that very well. The buildings and interiors are very opulent and the grounds are stunning. I just feel they have pushed it too far. The large casino in the grounds is evidence of this, and make it feel a bit tacky and far removed from the real Morroco.

  To be honest - this hotel comes with a lot of hype and the real question is whether that hype is real or just fabricated because of its history and seeming opulence in the general realm of hotels. In my opinion - this was all hype and not worth the stay. However in full disclosure, my opinion is based on several factors intrinsic to what we wanted to do at the hotel . In other words why we decided to pay a higher price to stay at the hotel for one night when there are so many amazing options inside the Medina . Because of the reviews of the hotel and more importantly it's standing in social media- we decided that staying here would allow us the opportunity to take some wonderful pictures of the hotel itself. In other words, we decided to treat the hotel, beautiful as it may be, as sort of a museum or famous historical landmark. To our disappointment we were not allowed to take any pictures. When asked why they could not give us a reason and said only for magazines (we were allowed to take pictures with our phones however). We just regular people . This and some other things made us feel that even when we paid to stay here, we were not welcome to even take pictures and treated more like trespassers as opposed to valued guests. That really bothered me. Yes the service is good - yes the interior is beautiful- yes it's historic- but what good is all that if you don't feel welcomed . We were not asking for a lot - just to spend the day there as a "fancy escape" from real life. I guess the most disappointing thing is the realization that the hotel is catered to such a high quality of clients and guests that it didn't matter to them either way. And I don't believe that affects them either, due in part to all the reasons mentioned above. It seemed like class division at its finest - all in part to the simple ability to take photos in the Grand Salon. Won't ever try to stay here again- even if I became a billionaire tomorrow.

  This place is absolutely beautiful and it's free to visit. You have tell security that you want to visit and have to go through a security check. We walked through the foyer and visited just the gardens and some large rooms with water fountains adjacent to the gardens. The garden is large and has many varieties of cactus plants as well as citrus fruit trees, banana trees and bamboos. We loved this palace but sadly don't have the approx 6k per night to stay there.

  Finest Hotel in all of Morocco. Amazing restaurants, rooms, shops and services. The property is huge with an amazing garden. The staff is incredible. Polite, courteous and exceptionally well trained. A must for anyone traveling to Morocco that can afford it. Well worth every penny.
