Le Naoura in Marrakech: the art of Moroccan hospitality enhanced by the Barrière group’s hotel expertise
There are places that don’t try to impress, but which, from the moment you set foot in them, install you in a rare form of rightness. Le Naoura in Marrakech belongs to that precious category of hotels where you can feel, without artifice, that the experience will be different, almost personalized. From the moment you arrive, the friendliness of the staff, the gentle atmosphere, the serenity that emanates from the premises… everything works together to create an impression of balance and naturalness, as if everything had been thought of so that you could finally let go of the pressure. And this feeling only grows stronger as your stay progresses, in the slightest gestures, in well-placed silences, in attention without heaviness.
Yes, this is a luxury hotel. But a subtle, hushed, enveloping luxury that favors the art of hospitality, calm and the quality of the moment over anything that might seem ostentatious. It’s a rare interlude of comfort, discretion and sincere kindness.
Marrakech, between vibrant energy and serene oasis
In a city where everything seems to be in constant motion, between the bustle of the souks, the call of the desert and the incomparable light at the end of the day, there are places capable of suspending time. The Hôtel & Ryads Barrière Le Naoura, set in a verdant setting just a stone’s throw from the Medina, is such a place.
The establishment has a well-established history in the Marrakech hotel trade, offering a refined experience in a verdant setting on the very edge of the city center for over fifteen years. At once quiet, confidential and human, Le Naoura cultivates a spirit of home that goes far beyond mere hotel service.
A strategic location in the heart of the city
Located just 10 minutes’ walk from the Medina, Le Naoura offers quick access to the city’s main cultural and craft attractions. All while being perfectly isolated from the hustle and bustle of the city. A rare location that lets you alternate moments of immersion in thehustle and bustle of the medina with a quiet retreat at any time of day. It’s the ideal place to let yourself be carried away by your desires, without constraints.
A warm welcome at the heart of the experience
What immediately sets this hotel apart is the human quality of its service. Everywhere, from the reception staff to the catering and concierge teams, guests will appreciate the kindness, attentiveness and attention paid to every request and every detail.
You’re sure to remember the name of an employee who made an impact during your stay with a thoughtful gesture or personalized handling of your request. This will help you remember the moment, your stay, and the warm atmosphere felt in a place that goes beyond mere hotel service.

A subtle blend of modernity, freshness and generosity, to be enjoyed on the terrace in the shade of the parasols.

In the evening, the atmosphere changes, with the menu focusing more on Moroccan gastronomy, with classics revisited and elegantly presented: chicken tajine with preserved lemon, pigeon pastilla with dried fruit, or royal couscous with vegetables and melting meats.
