Traditional Elegance & Quiet
Thanks to a massive makeover, "La Grande Dame" is more fantasy than ever before: huge and bright and excessive, a glittering combination of the Art Deco and Moroccan traditions with mosaics, painted columns and gleaming marble floors. The old entrance, admittedly charming but rather small, has been replaced by a vast reception hall, with potted palms and fountains in which fragrant petals float and the perfume of 10,000 roses hangs in the air.
Options abound here. There are five restaurants serving every imaginable cuisine, a spa and a casino. Stick to Moroccan food, genuinely authentic, and cooked by a hefty-armed, all-female staff — women are considered the best chefs in the country. Drink at the Churchill Bar, one of the last remaining pockets of the old Mamounia style with its black leather and chrome.
After dark, wear gauzy dresses and spindly heels, as you will be in the company of starlets, diplomats, and trophy wives. And if you are feeling over-saturated, take a walk in the gardens. Three hundred years ago, the king was so in love with this eighteen-acre garden of olive trees and fragrant bougainvillea that he made it a wedding present for his son. Today, it is the one thing in the hotel that has escaped renovation, and it is still just as beautiful as ever.
