About La Mamounia

La Mamounia has been a palace hotel in Marrakech since 1923, in its own words, with rooms, suites and riads inside the city walls on Avenue Bab Jdid. Its restaurants include Le Marocain, L’Italien by Simone Zanoni and L’Asiatique by Jean-Georges Vongerichten, with Le Churchill, Le Bar Majorelle and two tea rooms by Pierre Hermé; the spa has, since 1 October 2026, worked with Susanne Kaufmann, exclusively in Morocco (the hotel’s site).

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with La Mamounia before you go.
