Overview

Ksar Fawz – a boutique bolthole in the oldest part of Marrakech – is where the bright young things flock for poolside lounging, rooftop dining and heavenly hammams. The decor is laidback and the food is home-made: Layla, the excellent chef, is famous for her fluffy pancakes, fresh juices and traditional tagines. Marrakech’s most famous monuments are just steps away or, if you feel like venturing farther, Ksar Fawz can organise all manner of day trips to the desert, mountains or Berber villages. And rest assured: Marrakech can be an assault on the senses, but relaxation reigns behind Ksar Fawz's discreet wooden doors.

Mr and Mrs Smith reviews

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this hip hideaway in Marrakech and unpacked their Beldi tea glasses and souk spices, a full account of their colourful break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Ksar Fawz & Spa in Morocco…

Down a winding side street in the oldest part of Marrakech, behind a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it wooden door, you’ll find Ksar Fawz & Spa, a hip hideaway that offers cool respite from the buzz beyond. As you start to take in the lush courtyard that surrounds the pool ? its forest-green marble floors, tropical plants and jauntily-striped sunloungers ? you might feel your fingers moving irresistibly towards your camera. You wouldn’t be the first: this perfectly-proportioned riad has set many shutters aflutter. But Ksar Fawz isn’t just a feast for the eyes, their fabulous chef, Layla, will soon have you begging, darling, please for her home-made pancakes, tagines and briouates (samosa-y things). After a day exploring the palaces, ruins and secret gardens on your doorstep, book into Ksar Fawz's boutique spa for an invigorating black-soap body scrub or de-stressing deep-tissue massage. Once your muscles have been pummelled into blissful surrender, you’ll be ready for a mint tea on the spacious rooftop, where kilim cushions in dusky colours mirror the sunset views over the medina. With the mystical sound of the call to prayer in the distance, Ksar Fawz will leave you tickled pink in the Red City.

Dining information

Restaurant:

Breakfast at Ksar Fawz is a roving affair: you can post up poolside or relax on the rooftop. Chef Layla’s Moroccan crepes, fluffy muffins and fresh juices are all divine, though she also has healthy, western dishes in her repertoire, like homemade granola with yoghurt or avocado on toast. At lunch and dinner, which are served on the pool patio, traditional Moroccan cuisine is the order of the day so expect roasted aubergine and tantalising tagines.

Top Table:

Pull up a pouf on the rooftop for spectacular North African sunsets.

Last Orders:

Breakfast is served from 7.30am to 10.30am; the poolside restaurant serves lunch, snacks and dinner from noon to 9.30pm.

Hotel Bar:

There’s no dedicated bar, but you can order freshly made juices and Moroccan mint tea by the pool or up to the roof terrace. We particularly like the green detox concoction of refreshing cucumber, kiwi and mint.
