In Marrakesh, the Royal Mansour has become the signature of an exceptional art of living. This vision of hotel excellence is now expressed in a second address, in the heart of Morocco’s vibrant city, Casablanca…
The opening of the Royal Mansour Casablanca marks the rebirth of a legendary address from the 1950s, which is now home to 149 rooms, suites and private apartments. Three restaurants – including one on the 23rd floor with a 360 degree view across the city and ocean – sumptuous fitness and spa areas spanning two floors, a conference centre and a ballroom complete the offering.
With utmost respect for the memory of a thousand-year-old city, preservation of a priceless architectural heritage, the reimagined property is part of the continuity of a rich history, breathing new life into a special place in the city and into the hearts of the people of Casablanca. 70 years after the inauguration of Casablanca’s first 5-star hotel, the Royal Mansour has faithfully resumed all the codes of the modernist architecture of the 1950s, the volumes of the original patio, overflowing with greenery, refined furniture and the majestic staircase have been reinterpreted. While the traditions are kept alive, all the most rigorous construction standards are respected, in terms of sustainability, responsibility, safety, and technology

Rooms and suites with a refined décor of marble, inlaid noble woods, rich fabrics, and exclusively designed light fittings, in addition to a rare collection of works of art. The property combines a unique aesthetic with a warm atmosphere and perfect and generous service, conforming to the spirit and DNA of the luxury brand.
“This new hotel in Casablanca has its own personality, consistent with the identity of the city,” commented Jean-Claude Messant, General Manager of the Royal Mansour Collection. “As in Marrakech, the Royal Mansour signature is here: you will find the excellence of service, discretion, and confidentiality so dear to our guests. And all in an exceptional setting firmly rooted in its destination.”
The opening of the Royal Mansour Casablanca follows the re-emergence of the ‘White City’ on the international tourism scene. An avant-garde destination, Morocco’s economic capital is undergoing an extraordinary transformation and embodies an authentic and pleasure-seeking contemporary Morocco, where business, art and culture, as well as a sense of festivity, coexist with the age-old traditions of the medina.
