Le Nid des Cigognes

Marrakech, Morocco

On a quiet street near the bustle of the main square, Le Nid des Cigognes’ four rooms, cool courtyard and panorama-endowed roof terrace provide a hip and homely base for Moroccan adventures. The self-catering sister property of Dar Les Cigognes has a chic pared-down decor, which is a blend of modern and traditional touches. Creamy tones dominate the bedrooms, warmed up with furnishings in spice-rack colours.
