PB hotel design editorial

Tucked into the Palmeraie, Marrakech's ancient palm grove northeast of the medina, Palais Ronsard was conceived as something closer to a private estate than a conventional hotel — a compound of low-rise ochre-washed pavilions arranged around multiple pool terraces and manicured gardens planted with date palms and flowering borders. The architecture draws on a layered Franco-Moroccan vocabulary: arched colonnades, wrought-iron balustrades, zellige-trimmed cornices, and carved plasterwork friezes that echo the decorative language of a nineteenth-century riad while maintaining the generous proportions of a French colonial villa. With just a handful of suites and villas spread across the grounds, the scale is deliberately intimate. Inside, the interiors pursue a maximalist Orientalist sensibility with considerable confidence — lacquered black woodwork set against blush and ivory plaster walls, draped four-poster beds hung with gauze curtains, Moroccan cement-tile floors in monochrome geometric patterns, and tufted velvet dining chairs in deep teal pulled up to brass-trimmed tables. The restaurant, framed by a coffered pale-green ceiling and muraled walls dense with tropical imagery, has the atmosphere of a grand colonial salon filtered through a contemporary collector's eye. Sheer curtains in the pool-facing villas dissolve the boundary between interior and garden, while fringed throws, gilt sconces, and lacquered Chinese-inspired screens layer period references without arriving at pastiche. The effect is heady and deliberate — Marrakech as imagined through the lens of a well-traveled aesthete.

Palais Ronsard Reviews

"As a Relais & Châteaux property, Palais Ronsard sets expectations for a high level of hospitality, professionalism, and attention to detail. Unfortunately, our experience following checkout fell well short of that standard. At check-in, the hotel processed a 4,000 MAD charge ($600 Canadian) on my credit card for incidentals, which I was explicitly told was only a preauthorization hold. Upon checkout on May 6, the hotel also correctly processed payment for our stay separately. However, more than two weeks later, the 4,000 MAD charge had still not been reversed. I raised the issue at checkout and was reassured it was simply a hold and would correct itself. When it did not, I followed up by phone on May 14 and via WhatsApp on May 15 and May 22. Both communications assured me that someone would get back to me right away, yet no one ever responded to any of my follow-ups. What is most disappointing is not simply the billing error itself — mistakes can happen — but rather the complete lack of communication and accountability afterward. For a luxury property operating under the Relais & Châteaux banner, ignoring repeated guest inquiries regarding an unresolved credit card charge is unacceptable. The property itself was pleasant enough, but overall the stay was average and certainly did not justify the level of frustration caused afterward. I have now had to escalate the matter through my bank as a wrongful charge dispute, something that should never have been necessary had the hotel simply acknowledged and resolved the issue professionally. I sincerely hope management takes guest follow-up and financial accountability more seriously going forward."

"The location of Palais Ronsard is about 30 min from the Medina of Marrakech (old center) The place has a very calm atmosphere, and the gardens are magnificent. The rooms are nicely decorated with a lot of authentic furniture and details The value for what you get is somehow high priced The cleanliness of the rooms is ok, but not the high windows. We made a complaint but the guys had no proper materials to clean properly! The managment should have specific people only for window cleaning. Ours were so dirty we missed light in the room. There is absolutely no noise disturbance in this hotel. In our room, close to the pool , we hardly heared the soft music aroung the pool. The pool was well heated although we had low temperatures and rains. The service is truly excellent. The restaurant offers different menus. International and local cuisine. The taxis of the hotel to and from golf courses, other restaurants and more was very efficient."
