A truly remarkable experience at The Oberoi Marrakesh. My mother and my son spent a beautiful night in one of the villas - the environment was both elegant and serene. The attention to detail, the discreet yet attentive service, and the genuine kindness of the staff made all the difference. The Indian dinner was a true highlight — precise flavors, refined spices, and impeccable presentation. A memorable culinary experience. A place that perfectly embodies refined luxury and excellence in hospitality. We will return.

We had an incredible stay at the Oberoi Marrakech. The grounds are absolutely beautiful, the attention to detail across the property is remarkable, and the service truly sets this hotel apart. Rachid and every member of the staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay special. The food was also outstanding - especially the Indian restaurant. One moment really captured the level of care from the team. My 4-year-old son had a stuffed camel he carried everywhere. The housekeeping staff noticed it had started to tear and offered to take it to the “doctor.” A few hours later we returned to our room to find it perfectly stitched up and sitting on the bed like new. Such a small gesture, but it meant so much and perfectly reflects the kindness and thoughtfulness of the staff here. A truly memorable stay - we can’t wait to come back.

The Oberoi Marrakech is one of the finest hotels in Marrakech. Staying here in these beautiful grounds is a treat only doubled by the superb service. PROS-The setting and buildings are new but tastefully designed to reflect the Arab and Berber traditional artisan work of intricately c arved marble, wood and the beautiful tiles. The service was superb at the reception, the concierge Anas and the rooms director Mr.Mamdouh, and Sumit the chef at Ritawat all bent backwards to please. The Riyawat restaurant was one of the best Indian meals I have ever had. The breakfast buffet was also excellent. CON- This hotel deserves 5 + stars, except for a strange situation upon our departure. The golf buggy driver who came to collect us loaded our bags and sat us in the cart. But instead of driving us to the car transfer area, he went into our rooms for 5-10 minutes to check our suites, whilst we waited outside. Another cart parked behind us and a uniformed employee followed him into our room. We felt really uncomfortable about this whole process. This was definitely a first--our rooms being checked by employees, just as we are leaving them. The location is far from the Medina, so if you want to explore the neighborhoods of Marrakech, its not an ideal location.
