The one-bedroom Superior Riad covers 140 square meters across three floors. A tiled patio opens onto a ground-floor living room with a fireplace. Upstairs, brocade fabrics accompany a bedroom and a bathroom finished in porcelain, onyx and marble. The roof terrace has a plunge pool and views toward the medina and Atlas Mountains; a retractable glass roof shelters the patio below.

At 175 square meters, the one-bedroom Premier Riad has sculpted plaster, intricate woodwork and arabesque decoration. Its ground floor gathers living and dining spaces around a planted patio, with a bar and a Moroccan lounge furnished with silk cushions. Mashrabiya screens conceal the first-floor dressing room. Above the bedroom and bathroom, the rooftop has a pool and a shaded tent.

The 430-square-meter Privilege Riad has two first-floor bedrooms joined by a living room, with separate dressing rooms and marble bathrooms. Reception spaces, a Moroccan lounge and a dining room surround the patio on the ground floor. A tent, pool and dining area occupy the roof terrace, where the city skyline includes the Koutoubia minaret. Butler service accompanies this category.

A patio ringed by twelve columns forms the center of the three-bedroom Prestige Riad. Its 840 square meters include two lounges, a library, bar and dining room, along with an elevator and a fully equipped kitchen. The first-floor bedrooms have adjoining dressing rooms and bathrooms. On the roof are a pool, solarium, covered lounge and private hammam, with views over the hotel gardens toward the Atlas Mountains.

The Grand Riad extends to 1,800 square meters, entered privately through an olive-tree patio leading to a landscaped garden and pool. Its reception rooms include a library and snooker room. Three bedrooms with adjoining dressing rooms and bathrooms occupy the first floor, with a boudoir beside the main suite that can become an additional room. Cedar, crystal and lace-like stucco enrich the interiors. The rooftop adds a cinema, hammam and fitness facilities, while a butler, cook and housekeeper attend this residence.

Landscape designer Luis Vallejo shaped Le Jardin with Arab-Andalusian gardens and traditional irrigation systems in mind. Geometric flowerbeds and kiosks spread beneath the ramparts on the western side of the medina. An organic vegetable garden supplies seasonal produce to the kitchens, and an aromatic garden grows plants for infusions. Fountains and planted paths run through the grounds.

The main outdoor pool measures 30 meters long by 20 meters wide. Sun loungers and shaded terraces surround the water, with sand-colored furnishings set against the garden greenery. Seven private pavilions range from 45 to 80 square meters, creating individual sheltered spaces beside the pool. Le Jardin's open-air restaurant is also set among the vegetation.

La Grande Brasserie brings French cooking to an ornate dining room and a sunny terrace. A seafood counter, bread trolley, tableside carving and flambéing recall the traditions of Parisian brasseries. The menu includes Oualidia oysters, salt-crusted sea bass with fennel and anchovy sauce, and lamb from Beni Mellal with tandoori spices. Desserts range from chocolate profiteroles with salted caramel ice cream to Madagascar vanilla millefeuille.

Afternoon tea at La Grande Brasserie pairs savory sandwiches with pastries and scones. The selection includes smoked salmon with dill and lemon cream, orange blossom brioche and chocolate Paris-Brest with hazelnut praline. Plain and Earl Grey raisin scones come with homemade jam, amlou and garden honey. Traditional mint tea sits alongside jasmine green tea and blends scented with rose or orange blossom.

At La Grande Table Marocaine, a brass door reached through a blue patio opens into a high-ceilinged restaurant with original artworks and finely laid tables. The cooking draws on Moroccan family traditions: sh'hiwates, pastilla, tagines and couscous. Chicken pastilla combines almonds with Asni pears, while beef cheek tangia carries saffron and preserved lemon. Orange blossom flavors the milk pastry served among the desserts.

Sesamo takes its decorative cues from Venetian palaces, with high ceilings, wall hangings and Murano glass chandeliers. Italian cooking incorporates Moroccan ingredients, including durum wheat linguine with garlic, oil, chili and carrot sauce, and saffron gnocchi with Moroccan long pepper and orange blossom. Tables extend to a terrace as well as the lounge. Roasted sea bass comes with garden vegetables and verbena.

Le Jardin's Asian and Mediterranean menu moves between sushi, steamed dumplings, wok dishes and charcoal grilling. Salmon trout from the Azrou Valley appears as sashimi, while king crab and prawn dumplings carry lemongrass. Grilled eggplant comes with mild harissa and herbs; miso-marinated black cod is accompanied by ginger rice. Desserts include frosted pineapple with basil and coconut ice cream profiteroles with Tahiti lime.

The 2,500-square-meter spa opens around a white atrium, where delicate ironwork traces Moorish patterns above fountains. Ten treatment rooms and three spa suites accommodate massages, exfoliation and body wraps. The hair and beauty salon offers hairstyling, event makeup and hand and foot treatments. The heated indoor swimming pool sits beneath an orangery-style canopy, and the fitness space has exercise equipment and personal coaching.

White marble and fountains set the scene in the hammam. Bathing rituals use steam, exfoliation, body wraps and floral water sprays. The marocMaroc Evasion treatment includes exfoliation with a kessa glove and Miel d'Ambre paste, finished with orange blossom soaping. Lumiere sur le Corps follows the traditional bathing ritual with a ceremonial massage in a treatment room.

Three signature hammams draw on ingredients from different Moroccan regions. Step into the Atlas uses ghassoul clay, lavender and tulsi, also known as sacred basil. Step into Taliouine combines orange blossom honey, argan and saffron from southern Morocco. Step into Kalaat M'gouna is a body wrap with argan powder and rose water from the Rose Valley, east of Ouarzazate.

A glass greenhouse in the gardens houses the artist's studio, with workshops in painting, pottery and embroidery. Both hotel guests and visitors can take part.
