Opulent elegance
Perfectly located in the centre of the golden triangle of Marrakech, the Sultana Hotel is just inside the gates of the Imperial City. This luxury hotel is right next to the Royal Palaces, and close to the Jemaa El Fna Square, the hub of the city where market stalls and entertainers gather. The Bahia Palace, Koutoubia Mosque and the historic houses and gardens of this colourful city are all close by. The airport is just 15 minutes away.
This opulent luxury hotel in Marrakech is listed by Forbes as one of the ‘World’s Very Best Hotels and Resorts’ and is a member of the Small Luxury Hotels group. Offering a comfortable palace-style retreat in Marrakech’s old city, the Sultana is perfect for those who want to live like royalty for a few days. The former palace has retained its calm atmosphere with beautiful architecture enhanced by carved cedarwood screens and sumptuous sitting areas furnished with local antiques.
The sophisticated elegance of this luxury hotel oasis continues into each of the 28 individually designed rooms and suites. These air-conditioned, soundproofed rooms have excellent amenities including satellite TV, DVD, telephones, internet (unusual in Marrakech) and comfortable king-size beds. Local artwork, colourful Moroccan rugs and decorated high ceilings all add to the local style. Marble bathrooms have both bathtub and shower. The complimentary non-alcoholic minibar is a nice extra. The spacious, airy rooms are arranged in riad style around the central courtyard with its hanging gardens. Deluxe suites come with their own private balcony overlooking the swimming pool and lush gardens.
Moroccan cuisine is excellent and the Sultana’s restaurant is no exception. Lamb with honey tajine, duck foie gras, half-cooked with apples and other tasty combinations will thrill the palate of those who appreciate gourmet cuisine. Served in the dining room or out on the terrace, it is an integral part of the Moroccan experience. The hammam with its exceptional spa facilities is waiting to treat guests to many therapeutic treatments from al fresco massages to special showers. The ionized spa pool and relaxing gardens complete the pampering, which is truly fit for royalty.
