Les Jardins de La Koutoubia de Morocco

Les Jardins de La Koutoubia is a Medina hotel near Jemaa el-Fnaa, with a palm-shaded courtyard, outdoor pool and rooftop views of Koutoubia Mosque.

Les Jardins de La Koutoubia is a luxury hotel in Marrakech’s Medina, about a two-minute walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa. Inside, a palm-shaded courtyard, carved pillars and a large heated pool create a quieter setting just beyond the square. Rooms are air-conditioned and open onto a patio; some suites have a living room. You can dine at the hotel’s Indian or Moroccan restaurants, relax at the spa or swim outdoors. The rooftop Sky Bar looks towards Koutoubia Mosque.

The hotel is on Rue Koutoubia, a short walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa. That puts the square and its markets close by, while the hotel’s courtyard provides a more sheltered place to pause between outings.

The property has 108 rooms and suites, including mini suites, junior suites and two royal suites. Rooms are air-conditioned and open onto a patio. A minibar and television are listed among the room amenities; some rooms have a separate living room.

The interior opens onto a garden-like courtyard with palm-shaded seating, carved pillars and a large heated pool. The outdoor pool is surrounded by palm trees. The hotel also has a hot tub, fitness centre and Carita Spa, where treatments include massages, body treatments and facials.

For a quieter break above the Medina, the rooftop Sky Bar has seating and sun parasols. Its outlook includes Koutoubia Mosque, and the roof terrace is a place to settle in for a drink as the day ends.

Dining at the hotel

Dining choices include Les Jardins, an Indian and Asian restaurant, a Moroccan restaurant and Relais de Paris for French dishes. There is also a snack bar, a piano bar and the rooftop Sky Bar. The Indian restaurant is described as a fine-dining option, so it suits a meal that feels more formal than a casual curry stop.

The piano bar is on the ground floor, in a burgundy-toned room. For a meal with a rooftop setting, choose the Sky Bar; for Moroccan or French food, the hotel has separate restaurant options.
