The most romantic hotels in Morocco

Our selection of romantic Morocco hotels captures the essence of this fascinating country. Morocco is at once a world away but strangely familiar. Casablanca, Marrakesh, Tangier slip off the tongue as places we’ve all heard of, yet the country still retains an aura of the exotic even to this day – that colorful one thousand and one nights feel and atmosphere.

The fact of the matter remains that Morocco is an intrinsically beautiful land, one that abounds in a heritage and culture. As soon as you set foot on its shores you will be transported to another time and place totally different from what you will leave at home, but at your disposal there lie fascinating cities and landscapes that vary from snow-laden slopes to the highest mountain ranges in Africa and pristine deserts.
