RITZ CARLTON, RABAT

This business focused urban resort required sympathetic site planning and design to ensure that it did not detract from the golf experience in its location to the edge of the Royal Golf Dar es Salam course. Spread across 14 hectares, the orientation and aspect of each architectural component were carefully sited to be recessive within the landscape, which in turn sensitively frames long and picturesque views.

Within the hotel, intimate courtyards, sheltered walled gardens and carefully arranged terraces provide a distinctly modern Moroccan ambience to complete this luxury experience.

This 120-key luxury business hotel, designed in collaboration with architects WATG London, will house world class conferencing, spa, fitness and stunning pools with 5 luxury villas nestled within the landscaped grounds.
