Dar Les Cigognes is a luxury boutique hotel ideally situated facing the Royal Palace in Marrakech. In the heart of the Palace Quarter in the UNESCO world-heritage designated medina, most of the major sites of Marrakech are just steps from the front door.

Created from two 400-year old riads, traditional Moorish houses, by celebrated architect Charles Boccara, guests find in Dar Les Cigognes a tranquil oasis, both majestic and calm. With just 11 luxuriously appointed rooms and suites, each individually decorated in a style representing a different facet of Moroccan artistic heritage, the hotel has been featured in many of the world's leading interiors and design magazines.

The Fassi Beauty Spa and hammam offers guests a broad range of traditional and international treatments in intimate surroundings. The hotel has developed its own line of organic scented oils and massage products, all based on the highly anti-oxidant argan oil. The massage room has been described as one of the most beautiful rooms in Marrakech.

Dar Les Cigognes has a restaurant offering a range of Mediterranean-inspired Moroccan food from a menu that changes daily to reflect what is fresh and in season, has produced its own cookbook, and offers short cookery classes every day. The hotel also has a chauffeur and luxury 4x4 for guests to use. There is a boutique selling unique handicrafts, kaftans, and jewellery.

The hotel was this year shortlisted for the 4th time as the Best Boutique Hotel in Africa, and has won service accolades year after year.
