Tips
The most beautiful palace spas in Marrakech
Marrakech has some of the most beautiful hotel spas in Morocco. Large marble hammams, heated pools, gardens and signature treatments: these places are made for a real day of relaxation. Here is our selection of palace and grand hotel spas, with what makes each one special.
Why choose a palace spa?
A palace spa is about more than the treatment. You also go for the setting: large spaces, pools, relaxation rooms and very attentive service. It is the right choice for a special occasion, a moment as a couple or a complete break after several days of sightseeing. Prices usually start at around 1,000 MAD, but some places are more affordable.
