From 20 to 28 November 2026<\/strong>, Marrakech will host the 23rd edition of the Marrakech International Film Festival<\/strong>, with celebrated French actress Marion Cotillard<\/strong> presiding over the jury. It is a wonderful opportunity to discover the city through film screenings and encounters with the world of cinema.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

To complement these days of discovery, Les Jardins de la M\u00e9dina<\/strong> invites you to slow down: stay in a former princely residence, share a meal in a century-old garden, and take time to relax by the pool or at the spa.<\/p>\n

A charming retreat in the Kasbah<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Behind the walls of the medina, in the historic Kasbah district, our boutique hotel reveals a 3,000 m\u00b2 garden<\/strong>. Majestic palm trees, bitter orange trees and a jacaranda create a beautiful setting for your stay, with dappled light and welcoming shade.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With its 36 rooms<\/strong>, patios and swimming pool heated in winter<\/strong>, Les Jardins de la M\u00e9dina combines the character of a historic residence with the comfort of a contemporary hotel. Some rooms feature a balcony or private terrace: an inviting space to read, rest or enjoy a leisurely morning.<\/p>\n

Between festival events, take the opportunity to explore the Kasbah and the medina. Our concierge team can help arrange your transport and offer advice on places to visit.<\/p>\n

Continue the conversation over a meal<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

A film often lives on in the conversations it inspires. Over lunch, an aperitif or dinner, our restaurant offers an inviting setting to share your impressions.<\/p>\n

From breakfast through to lunch and dinner, our restaurant welcomes you throughout the day: in the garden, beneath the elegant glass roof of our Orangerie, or in the grand salon with its carved cedar ceilings.<\/p>\n

Start your morning with a generous buffet bringing together Moroccan specialities and international flavours. At lunchtime, enjoy a delicious break with dishes showcasing seasonal ingredients. In the evening, savour refined, freshly prepared cuisine inspired by Moroccan traditions and flavours from around the world. A dedicated vegetarian menu<\/strong> completes our offering.<\/p>\n

Depending on your screening schedule, join us for dinner before your film or on your return, until 10:30 pm.<\/p>\n

Staying elsewhere in Marrakech? Our restaurant also welcomes non-resident guests, with advance reservations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Orangerie: Enjoy the garden in every Season<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Looking out onto the greenery, the Orangerie invites you to enjoy the beauty of the garden in a comfortable, sheltered setting<\/strong>. Air-conditioned in summer and heated in winter, it offers a welcoming atmosphere all year round for a meal, a drink or simply a leisurely moment.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Filled with natural light and surrounded by greenery, its warm atmosphere makes it a delightful place to come together, from a relaxed lunch to a gentle evening in the garden.<\/p>\n

Time for yourself at the Spa<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Between sightseeing, screenings and evenings out, make room for relaxation too.<\/p>\n

Our spa features two traditional hammams and three treatment rooms dedicated to massages and body treatments<\/strong>. Discover the hammam ritual, choose a massage to suit your needs or enjoy a beauty treatment to complete your visit.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Whether visiting alone or as a couple, let our therapists take care of you and enjoy a moment without hurry before returning to the buzz of the festival.<\/p>\n
