Grace Hotels has announced its entry into the North African region with the purchase of the acclaimed Les Terres M’Barka, a luxury boutique hotel located near the village of Tamesloht, just 22 kilometres south west of Marrakech.
The hotel turns into often known as Grace Marrakech.
Breathtaking views of the Atlas Mountains surround this tranquil hideaway which rests on 15 hectares of Moroccan countryside and contours its own farmstead with olive trees, vegetable gardens and horse stables.
Comprising 18 suites and lofts (some with two or three bedrooms), a cafe, bar, library, outdoor heated pool, traditional farm kitchen and completely serviced spa with traditional hammam and whirlpool, it provides the ideal escape for both couples and families or those seeking an exclusive corporate retreat.
Les Terres M’Barka will close in June and after full refurbishment, it’s going to re-launch as Grace Marrakech inside the fourth quarter of the year.
Philippe Requin, chief executive, Grace Hotels, commented: “We are very excited to announce the most recent addition to the Grace portfolio.
“The blend of traditional design with contemporary touches which dominates Les Terres M’Barka perfectly complements our existing portfolio of boutique hotels.
“We stay up for bringing the Grace philosophy of elegance and ease to this gorgeous property in a single of the main wanted destinations in North Africa.”
The creation of Grace Marrakech coincides with the group’s further expansion into the Americas.
Grace Cafayate, situated on a residential and sporting estate with vineyards in northwest Argentina and charm Panama, a modern boutique hotel in the dramatic ‘Twist Tower’ in Panama City, are as a result of open later this year.
