Hotel Overview

Sense of Place

On a hilltop at the peak of the valley, Kasbah Bab Ourika is surrounded by magnificent views down to the flowing river, green fields, olive groves and orange and lemon trees, and then up to the dazzling snowy mountain peaks.

Rooms at Kasbah Bab Ourika

Each room and suite has its own character, with natural earth colours, Berber blankets, stone fireplaces, local artworks, carved wooden furnishings and colourful carpets. Some suites have their own pool, and private terraces look out over the Ourika Valley and the mountains beyond. 

Food & Drink

The chefs use fresh local produce for a wide-ranging menu featuring dishes from local Berber specialities such as stone-baked bread and Moroccan salads flavoured with mint to international cuisine such as Mediterranean fish soup. Tuck into the delicious fare in the restaurant or in the gardens, beneath a shady umbrella.

There's a secluded swimming pool that's perfect for cooling down in, or relax in the sunny gardens. The hotel enjoys warm sunlight all day, culminating in stunning sunsets which should be taken in with a cocktail in hand - followed by vast night skies full of stars.
