Recommended rooms

All of the large rooms can take an extra bed. If you want separate rooms, combine Wedgwood with the adjoining smaller Indian, or Taupe with Touareg rooms. Suites have private roof terraces; Casablanca and Calligraphy rooms share a verandah.

Activities

There's masses to do for active children, including playing hide and seek in the enormous garden. There's a tennis court; horse-drawn carriage tours, camel rides, trekking in the Atlas Mountains, bike hire and pony riding or riding lessons can all be arranged.

Swimming pool

There are five swimming pools, plus a portable inflatable one just for toddlers.

Meals

Well-behaved children are welcome in the restaurant, and there's a special kid's menu. You can ask for child-friendly packed lunches, and milk and baby food will be heated up for you.

Babysitting

This can be arranged: €35 a half-day; €50 an evening.

Baby-listening

No baby-listening service, but meals can be served in a terrace near your room. Alternativley, the restaurant is within baby-monitor range of all rooms.

No need to pack

Endless changes of clothes are not necessary: a laundry service is included in the price. High chairs are available in the restaurant.

Also

Moroccans have strong family ties and therefore tend to be great with kids, so expect them to be treated like mini rock stars when you're wandering around the hotel. Even very young children will love looking at all the animal trinkets in the souk, from donkeys to turtles.
