Royal Mansour Marrakech
53 private riads inside the Marrakech medina walls, each with its own rooftop plunge pool
About this stay
Stepping into the Royal Mansour Marrakech is like entering a private medina, where every detail is crafted for an experience of unparalleled luxury. Guests stay in individual riads, each with its own plunge pool and a dedicated team of staff, ensuring absolute privacy and bespoke service. The property offers a magnificent spa and wellness center, offering traditional hammam rituals and a range of treatments. Dining is an event here, with four distinct restaurants serving local and international cuisine, complemented by three elegant bars. The lush gardens and serene courtyards provide a tranquil escape, while the proximity to Djemaa El Fna means the vibrant heart of Marrakech is just moments away.

- Inside the medina walls, about 10 minutes on foot from Jemaa el-Fna
Our take
Royal Mansour has no ordinary rooms: it is made of 53 riads, each a private house on several levels with a roof terrace and its own plunge pool. Staff reach them through underground service tunnels, so you rarely see anyone in the lanes between the riads. It sits inside the medina walls, about ten minutes on foot from Jemaa el-Fna, which makes it one of the rare places where a private pool and the old town go together. It scores 9.6 over 75 reviews. I would choose it for privacy above all, not for a lively hotel scene.
- Use the rooftop plunge pool of your riad early in the morning in summer: by midday the Marrakech sun makes a shaded terrace more pleasant than the water.
- Book the spa ahead: it covers about 2,500 m² with two hammams, and the hammam rituals are the classic Marrakech experience done properly.
- Walk to Jemaa el-Fna in the late afternoon rather than taking a car: it is about ten minutes on foot and the square fills up at dusk.
- With four restaurants and three bars on site, you can spend a whole evening without leaving the grounds when the medina feels too busy.
Why we love it
- Individual riads with private pools
- Exceptional spa and traditional hammam
- Four diverse on-site restaurants
- Proximity to Djemaa El Fna square
Why guests love itA riad of its own, with several floors and a private plunge pool on the roof, is what makes Royal Mansour work for a family: children sleep in the same house as their parents, not down a corridor, and the pool is yours alone. Parents of toddlers should think about the stairs and the rooftop water, which need constant attention. Beyond the riad, the resort has indoor and outdoor pools and a large spa with two hammams. Its position inside the medina walls means a short walk to Jemaa el-Fna and the souks, which is easier with older children than with a pushchair on uneven lanes.
