Traditional Moroccan
Dar Zemora is located just outside Marrakech in the oasis area known as the Palmeraie. Set at the end of a drive lined with olive trees, it is in complete contrast to the busy, noisy medina and the lively entertainment in the Jemaa el Fna. This small boutique hotel is set amidst the palm trees down a sandy desert track about 15 minutes drive (8km) from the Medina. Marrakech airport is about 12km away.
This charming boutique hotel in Marrakech’s Palmeraie has just 3 guest rooms plus 2 spacious suites. Set in a quiet backwater it offers comfortable accommodation, traditional hospitality and characterful accommodation set within quiet, colourful gardens. The elegant sun terrace has ample lounging space for relaxing by the outdoor pool.
The spacious guest rooms are very well furnished in local style with wooden furniture, hand painted zuoak ceilings, tile floors, carved wooden screens, and colourful rugs and paintings on the walls. Colours are rich and vibrant throughout this delightful hotel. The La Perla suite has its own white-draped four poster bed, a separate dressing room, bathroom, sitting area with fireplace and a private screened terrace. Air conditioning, marble baths and soft bathrobes complete the luxury amenities provided in all the rooms and suites. Full-length hardwood windows and doors overlook the pretty gardens which have several shady terraces, lawns and exotic flowering shrubs.
With so few guests, the comfortable lounges and sitting areas offer plenty of nooks in which to sit and relax with a pot of mint tea or a good book. Comfy leather chairs set around an open fireplace give this boutique hotel a discreet country-house hotel atmosphere. There is a library and a fan room, offering the best indoor/outdoor space to enjoy a drink after dinner. The dining room has a terrace which overlooks the lily pond where delicious homecooked local cuisine is served in a romantic candle-lit atmosphere. Breakfast, bottled mineral water and afternoon tea are all included in the room rate, making this one of the best value boutique hotels in Marrakech.
