Park Hyatt Hotel Opens in Marrakech, Morocco

Dark/Light Mode (04/01/24)  Hyatt has expanded its portfolio of hotels in Africa with the opening of a Park Hyatt in Marrakech, Morocco.

Located about 15 kilometers from Marrakech’s historic Medina district, the 7.5-hectare resort is adjacent to the Al Maaden Golf resort at the base of the Atlas Mountains.

Composed of 16 pavilions arranged around a central, zeolite patio, the Park Hyatt Marrakech has 130 guestrooms and suites featuring traditionally woven Berber carpets in pure wool and headboards representing the Tataoui motif - a local roofing technique made of laurel branches.

Thanks to an exclusive collaboration with Ifitry Artists' Residence, the hotel features more than 700 paintings and decorative objects curated by artists from Morocco, Senegal, Benin, Spain, France, Italy and Japan.

In the lobby, a masterful suspension – comprising almost 600 hand-crafted ceramic pieces by visual artist Mounat Charrat – adorns the ceiling, depicting a constellation of meteorites, while two abstract paintings by Italian artist Gianni Lucchessi offer a contrast to the surrounding, raw-earth wall panels.

Facilities at the luxury hotel include an expansive spa; hair salon; 200-sqm fitness center and yoga studio; a 47-metre outdoor heated pool; a family-friendly 45-metre outdoor pool; a 20-metre indoor heated pool beneath a vaulted ceiling; a choice of F&B outlets; and a variety of flexible meeting and event spaces.

“We are looking forward to welcoming our discerning Park Hyatt guests to Marrakech,” said Pascal Leprou, the hotel's General Manager. “True to the brand promise, we have created a refined home-away-from home that unlocks unparalleled enrichment for guests, while upholding and honoring Moroccan traditions. The result is an intimate sanctuary of exceptional and magical surroundings for the curious and adventurous traveler.”

Park Hyatt Marrakech is the eleventh Park Hyatt property in the Europe, Africa and Middle East region, following the brand’s successful expansion across key leisure destinations such as Doha, Vienna, Istanbul, Dubai, Zurich, Milan and Paris.

“As a key market in our regional growth strategy, we are delighted to announce the opening of Morocco's first Park Hyatt hotel in Marrakech. The property has been a highly anticipated addition to our portfolio as Morocco receives a resurgence of interest as a top tier cultural destination among travel connoisseurs,” said Javier Águila, group president EAME, Hyatt. “Offering a wealth of new experiences across the arts, culture, and gastronomy, alongside the area’s historic and ancient treasures, Park Hyatt Marrakech provides guests an enviable opportunity to discover the beauty of the Red City through this modern sanctuary of timeless luxury.”
