Nobu Hotel Marrakech

My husband and I had an amazing stay at the hotel, everyone friendly and professional, room spotlessly clean and comfortable & great location to enjoy Marrakesh.
Special thank you to concierge Jamal who was great for recommendations & making himself available for any questions at any time, and also breakfast was made more special with great service from all staff and chefs and particularly from Abdelghafour who is a fantastic waiter who served us every morning.

Nobu Marrakech is a destination dining experience, offering panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains and the city’s colorful rooftop. The menu—an attraction in itself—is defined by the inspired flavors and innovative dishes mastered by Chef Nobu Matsuhisa. Drawing inspiration from Japanese and South American flavors, it features signature dishes including Black Cod Miso, Rock Shrimp Tempura, and Yellowtail Sashimi alongside special creations influenced by local flavors.

Experience an unparalleled rooftop destination in Marrakech. Our Rooftop Garden offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the Red City and the Atlas Mountains, set within an urban oasis. Designed around a circular, all-season pool, the Rooftop Garden features cabanas, a sundeck, and relaxed dining and bar areas.

Enjoy a signature Nobu cocktail, dine on Mediterranean and Moroccan cuisine, and unwind to the sounds of a live DJ set from internationally renowned and local artists. The Rooftop Garden also features a sushi bar, serving a selection of cold dishes, nigiri and sashimi, and sushi maki highlighting the region’s freshest seafood.

My First Stay at Nobu Marrakech

From the moment I landed in Morocco for the very first time, my experience felt seamless and elevated. As I arrived at the airport, my chauffeur was already waiting for me, greeting me warmly and escorting me directly to Nobu Marrakech. After travelling extensively around the world, I can honestly say that this was one of the smoothest and most welcoming arrivals I have ever experienced.

The moment I stepped into the hotel lobby, I was captivated. The scent in the air was beautiful, soft and luxurious. The lush plants, elegant trees, and impeccable attention to detail created an atmosphere that felt both serene and sophisticated. It was an immediate sensory experience that set the tone for my entire stay.

What truly sets Nobu Marrakech apart is the service. I have stayed in many luxury hotels globally, yet the team here offered the most friendly and professional service I have ever encountered. Every member of staff was not only impeccably trained and efficient, but genuinely warm, kind, and engaging. I was treated like an absolute princess from the very first moment. There is a rare balance between high level professionalism and heartfelt hospitality, and Nobu Marrakech has mastered it beautifully.

My room was simply stunning. Bathed in natural sunshine, with an incredible view of the palm trees swaying outside, it felt like a private sanctuary. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, combining elegance with comfort. Room service was exceptionally attentive. Anything I requested was delivered promptly and always with a smile.

The culinary experience was exquisite. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour, reflecting the high standards that Nobu is known for. Dining there was truly a highlight of my stay.

As a fitness professional, I was also deeply impressed by the facilities. The gym is excellent and fully equipped. The Pilates reformer studio is outstanding, allowing me to maintain my training routine in a beautiful environment. The hammam experience was equally incredible, offering a truly authentic and rejuvenating moment of relaxation.

Nobu Marrakech delivers a level of warmth, elegance, and excellence that is rare to find. This stay exceeded my expectations in every way, and I am already looking forward to returning in March.

An unforgettable first experience in Morocco.

Our stay at Nobu Hotel Marrakech was simply exceptional.

From the very first reservation call to the warm welcome on arrival, everything felt effortless and genuinely heartfelt. What stood out most was the people — every conversation felt real, every interaction thoughtful.

Breakfast each morning was beautiful, the drivers were gracious and professional, and housekeeping kept our room immaculate throughout. A very special thank you to Jamal, whose concierge recommendations were flawless — each dinner and excursion better than the last. He made our time in Marrakech feel perfectly curated.

There is something truly warm about the culture here, led by Hassan and his team. It’s elegant but never pretentious, polished yet personal.

We leave feeling grateful — and already wanting to return

Our stay at Nobu Hotel Marrakech was elevated from lovely to exceptional because of one person: Jamal, our concierge.

When we inquired about arranging a guide, Jamal didn’t default to selling us a full-day itinerary. Instead, he asked thoughtful questions — what mattered to us, what we enjoyed, what we hoped to feel. He truly listened. Then he connected us with the very best people: Ben, our driver, and Rachid, our guide, who took us through the Medina and around the souks with insight, humour, and total authenticity.

Rachid didn’t just “show” us Marrakech… he enriched it. He helped us barter for a hand-carved copper lantern, guided us to the purest spices, oils, and teas, and offered dining suggestions along the way. Everything felt genuine, never transactional. Warmth, laughter, cultural depth… the experience was seamless. Jamal also secured dinner reservations wherever we requested; his network and relationships are clearly impressive.

The hotel itself delivers on quality. The gym is top level.. spotless, beautifully equipped, and complete with three reformers. I have never stayed at a hotel with a dedicated Pilates studio; I was in heaven. The rooms were pristine, stocked with lovely products, and turndown service included glass-bottled water plus homemade dark chocolate and dates filled with walnut on our second night… such a thoughtful touch.

The breakfast was delicious, with vibrant fresh juices, and I was especially grateful for a dedicated vegan station. Throughout our stay during Ramadan, no less, every member of staff smiled, accommodated, and genuinely wanted to please. Maintaining that level of service in the heat and while fasting deserves real respect.

The only downside was the loud rooftop music during the day. It felt more Ibiza than Marrakech. While we expected a lively atmosphere in the evening, during the daytime we would have loved to hear the water flowing from the waterfall feature in the pool and the birds instead. We also had pizza one afternoon that could have been improved… the crust and sauce fell short, but even then, our server was so warm and sincere that it softened the critique.

Overall, we were deeply impressed. The kindness, authenticity, and attentiveness of the team stood out in every interaction. We will absolutely return and next time, we’ll use the hotel’s car service from the start.

If you are a smoker you will love the hotel as smoking is allowed in the bar ground floor,

My daughter and I had a wonderful stay at the Nobu hotel. It is a beautiful hotel and all the staff are extremely helpful. I would like to say a special thank you to Hussain , who is part of the concierge team. He looked after us during our 3 day stay. We will definitely be returning.

Not up to the mark as compared to other Nobu. Not a good value for money. Service is inconsistent - some good, some very green. Had multiple issues with the charges - carefully check before you sign off.
Amex perks very minimal no upgrades or extended check out. Limited places to use the credit.
Roof top bar was very good, though

The best place in Marrakech! We will definitely be back

On the plus-side:- Rooms are big. In-room amenities, superb. Breakfast is fantastic (Especially with the amiable Nasima, serving! She amazingly, always seems to pre-empt the needs of the guests. Always with a smile.)

HOWEVER!!!!!
If you need any sleep and rest; then this hotel is NOT for you.
Even in my first-floor room, you can hear the trance/techno music from the roof-top bar, LOUDLY thumping-away, pass midnight and well into the early hours. (Dread to think, what it's like in the rooms, on the upper floors)
As a result I could not sleep at all; which ruined my following day of activities.
Then having to search-for and buy ear-plugs, to use for the remainder of my stay in this '5-star hotel'; is ironic and rather comical!
At check-out; the front-desk staff obviously know of this problem, but they just gave me a shrug. No apologies.

Does Nobu NOT care about the well-being of it's paying guests??? Surely, isn't a '5-star hotel' meant to be conducive for a good sleep and relaxation?? Nobu Marrakesh can't seem to decide whether it wants to be a rave-up, loud, all-night night-club... or a high-end hotel.

Perhaps invest in EFFECTIVE noise-insulation for the rooms??

I wanted to thank all the names above for a very heartwarming experience they provided my mom and I during our stay. They made us feel like we were all part of one happy family having a great time together.

Thank you for all your help and support and we will see you soon again for sure.

Nobu is pricey for many reasons and it felt worth the price. The hotel rooms were clean, luxurious, and comfortable. The beds are so comfy, you will want the sheets, topper and comforter at your home. Hanging out in your room rather than going out would be easy to do (But don't, Marrakech is amazing). The turn down service and evening snack are a nice touch.

The staff is attentive as well. I notified the front desk in the afternoon that the shower hose was not connected to the shower head. By that evening, it was fixed. The breakfast offerings are varied and will satisfy many nutritional needs. The wait staff are friendly and attentive.

Bottom line - I was sad to leave.

What a wonderful stay I had at this hotel. Unfortunately I was there for only a single night. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Easy walk to the Medina but located in a much quieter area. I only wish it had been warm enough to really experience the rooftop pool. I’m a Hilton Diamond member so was able to take advantage of the expensive breakfast. Room itself was stunning with a small balcony. Spa pool looked heavenly!

Very cool hotel just outside the Medina. Rooms very spacious, received a great room upgrade on arrival. Roof top bar and pool is stunning, especially watching the sunsets, Nobu restaurant and music as we would expect. The overall decor is stunning. Spa with big swimming pool is a real treat. Jamal on concierge was so welcoming and helped us plan some wonderful meals and some great trips around the city and Atlas mountains. I would highly recommend this place with the lovely staff. Definitely allows you to relax after a lively shopping experience in the Souks.

Very nice hôtel, every thing was perfect , location,rooms, restaurant, sevice👍. I would like to especially thank the breakfast waitress Nassima for her kindness and professionalism. She always welcomed us with a warm smile and made sure everything was perfect. Her positive energy made our mornings even more pleasant. Truly a wonderful person who represents the hotel in the best way.🥰

Great location within walking distance from the Medina. Rooms are extremely spacious and service is fantastic. The rooftop noise can be heard from the rooms, but muffled and when I was there ended by midnight. But be aware if you are a light sleeper.

Great experience! Special thanks to the concierge Jamal for superb help with everything from experiences to restaurants and transfers.

From the very moment we arrived at Nobu Marrakech, we felt something rare — not just welcomed, but genuinely cared for. What was meant to be a beautiful stay turned into one of the most heartfelt and exceptional hospitality experiences my family has ever had.

Mehdi was nothing short of phenomenal. His attention to detail, warmth, and sincerity made us feel like we were the only guests in the world. The level of care he extended toward our children especially touched my heart deeply. From thoughtful Christmas gifts for the kids to anticipating our needs before we even voiced them, his dedication went far beyond service — it was pure kindness.

The chefs and servers were extraordinary. Every meal felt curated with love and pride. Our Christmas lunch? Absolutely unforgettable. The food was so exquisite we joked that we might pass out — we were completely overwhelmed, in the best way possible. But more than the cuisine (which was world-class), it was the feeling behind it. We were drunk on their love, generosity, and genuine joy in serving us.

One moment that will forever stay with me was when Mehdi, at a moment’s notice, arranged a professional boxing trainer for my son and I. Who does that? That level of commitment and willingness to go above and beyond is simply unmatched.

We’ve always loved Nobu restaurants around the world, but staying in one of their Riads in Marrakech was mind-blowing. The intimacy, the beauty, the tranquility — combined with a team that treats you like family — created magic.

And then Mehdi shared the history of Nobu and Robert De Niro’s involvement… and my heart melted. I grew up absolutely adoring Robert De Niro (my husband and children know this well!), so learning that connection elevated my love for this place to a thousand times more. It felt personal, special, unforgettable.

Nobu Marrakech is not just a hotel. It’s an experience of warmth, excellence, and humanity. They don’t just host you — they hold you.

We left with full hearts, incredible memories, and deep gratitude.

Thank you Mehdi. Thank you Nobu. We will never forget it. 🤍✨

Narjis and Mohamed were truly exceptional. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel incredibly welcome with their postcard experience and alcohol service. Their energy was warm, friendly, and professional, and they brought such a personal touch to the whole experience. They took the time to engage with everyone, explain what they were offering, and made sure each guest felt comfortable and taken care of. It was such a nice first impression of the hotel, and honestly set the tone for the rest of our stay. You can tell they both genuinely enjoy what they do, and it shows in the way they interact with guests. A big thank you to Narjis and Mohamed for going above and beyond. They are a real asset to the hotel.

I also want to give a shout out to the concierge. They helped us with everything from where to eat dinner to where to walk to in the day and where to book reservations for events and activities. They even went to full extent and booked us the activities.

The suite, lobby, public areas and rooftop pool and bar are all just excellent. The hotel is ideally situated in the Hivernage district with views to the Koutoubia and across the red walled old city.
