Les Jardins De La Koutoubia  

Tucked within the ancient walls of the medina, in striking distance of the famous Koutoubia Mosque, is this exquisite hotel. Step off the thronging streets where mules roam and merchants barter and behold a picture of calm, where the hurly burly of the medina is replaced with the soothing sound of piped music and the welcoming greetings of attentive staff. They say first impressions count, and your introduction to Jardins de la Koutoubia couldn't be more impressive. Inhale the sweet scent of exotic incense as you survey a vast reception area of gleaming marble draped in warm shades of burnt amber and crowned with an intricately-carved wooden ceiling. A sweeping stairway leads you down to the check-in desk, beyond which towering glass doors act as your gateway to the hotel's sublime centrepiece – a tranquil swimming pool framed by elegant sun-loungers and fragrant blooms. There's plenty of room to soak up the sun, but when you're tired off tanning, fall into plump sofas scattered around an open-fronted lounge that gazes out on the pool – the perfect spot to while away an afternoon or two with a good book and a refreshing drink. Your room is a pristine pocket of luxury, with ebony wood and rich red rugs offset against a canvas of fresh cream. Modern art gives your living quarter a contemporary twist, while shuttered doors lead to an en-suite bathroom of polished marble and glinting brass to give you everything you need for a truly comfortable stay. As you'd expect, the restaurants are a cut above the rest.

Enjoy a smorgasboard of flavours in the light and airy international restaurant, dine amid sweet-smelling blooms in the luxurious patio gardens, or sample fine North African fare in a traditional Moroccan setting. For a different view altogether, head up to the rooftop restaurant and enjoy a meal gazing out on Koutoubia mosque as the call of the muezzin wafts from its ancient minaret. Add to this enticing mix a sultry piano bar, a peppering of peaceful lounges in which to kick back and relax, and a medley of massage rooms for indulgent pampering, and you have all the makings for a truly memorable holiday.
