Ksar Char Bagh Hotel Marrakech: A Luxurious Oasis Review

In the heart of Annakhil, just fifteen minutes outside of Marrakech in an upscale district called the Palmeraie, lies Ksar Char-Bagh, an enchanting retreat. The Palmeraie is a thousand-year-old palm-grove oasis in the midst of a dry desert landscape.

Earthen walls surround this lushly landscaped compound in the middle of a vast, uninhabited, palm-planted plain 20 minutes outside Marrakech. Ksar Char-Bagh offers an enchanting retreat with a serene garden where guests can unwind.

Accommodation and Amenities

This luxury hotel offers 12 suites and one apartment. Guest quarters are immense, with sparse modern furniture and a dizzying array of amenities, from fireplaces and home theater systems to private gardens or terraces (one with a pool of its own). Step onto private decks before snuggling into premium bedding. Guest rooms feature sunken bathtubs and, upon request, Porthault sheets on beds in cozy alcoves, and either a terrace or a porch.

The style is a blend of traditional opulence and sleek contemporary design, equal parts Moorish and minimalist, with plenty of open space - the suites are almost improbably roomy. Every detail is accounted for, from custom bath amenities to the cigar selection and the extensive library.

Public Spaces and Dining

The public spaces are no less impressive, and possibly even more audaciously modern - the courtyard with its fountains and pond makes a striking impression. There are a number of sitting rooms and a billiards room, for mixing with fellow travellers, and all come together under the high windows of the dining room.

The French-trained chef is one of Morocco's finest, serving a mix of local and Continental cuisine, with the floodlit, palm-lined pool as a backdrop. Guests can indulge in French cuisine at Le Grand Salon. This luxury hotel boasts a peaceful garden, complete with a garden-view restaurant and poolside dining for scenic meal experiences.

Spa and Wellness

A luxurious hammam is the setting for first-rate Moroccan massages and beauty treatments at KSAR SPA. A full-service spa offers daily body treatments, facials, and massages. Steam room and Turkish bath enhance the experience. The garden adds natural serenity.
