Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech

The grand splurge, a palatial resort spread across gardens and a golf course with the snow-capped Atlas as a backdrop. Behind the polish it takes families seriously: the Le P'tit Palm kids club is free, the pools are generous and shaded, and the sheer space means little ones can run without ever feeling hemmed in. It is a proper destination in itself.
Our verdict
The dream splurge for a family who wants space, mountain views and a free kids club at palace level, and treats the medina as a day trip.
The rooms
Huge rooms and suites, most with a terrace or balcony framing the Atlas mountains and the golf course, on a vast estate a short drive south of the city. Family suites and connecting rooms give parents and children separate space with ease, and the service quietly caters to every age. Cots and baby gear are provided free.

Family things to do nearby
Pony and camel rides on site
The estate runs gentle pony and camel rides through its grounds, a soft-landing adventure that toddlers and young kids love.
Atlas foothills walk
You are at the foot of the mountains, so a guided walk to a Berber village or a river valley is close by and cooler than the city.
Marrakech medina
A hotel car reaches Jemaa el-Fna and the souks in around 25 minutes for an afternoon of squares, colour and mint tea.
Le Jardin Secret
A restored garden palace in the heart of the medina, calm and shady, with a tower to climb for views over the rooftops.
Is it right for your kids?
Baby
0 to 1 yr
Cots and baby gear are provided free and the ground-floor suites are stroller-friendly, with attentive staff who make a very grand hotel feel manageable with an infant.
Toddler
1 to 3 yrs
Pony rides, shallow pool steps and huge lawns suit this age beautifully, and the free club takes younger children in short, gentle sessions.
Kid
4 to 11 yrs
Five to twelve year olds get the free kids club, pools, sports and Atlas walks, with the medina an easy afternoon by car.
Teen
12 yrs and up
Teens have golf, tennis, big pools and mountain excursions, though the resort is calm at night and far from any teen nightlife.

Parents also ask
Is it worth the price with children?
If you want palace-level space and service with a free kids club, yes. The rooms are vast, the grounds let children roam and the staff genuinely look after families, which justifies the splurge for a special trip.
How far is it from the medina?
About 20 to 25 minutes by car south of the city, on the road towards the Atlas. The hotel can arrange transfers, so a half-day in Jemaa el-Fna and the souks is easy to fit in.
Is there enough to do on site?
Easily. Between the pools, the kids club, pony and camel rides, golf and Atlas walks, you could stay a week without leaving, using the city as an occasional day out.
