Since 1923, La Mamounia has perfected a single gesture: that of hospitality. More than an award, it is a promise, to reinvent this art without ever betraying its spirit.
Opened in 1923, La Mamounia has become the stuff of legend.
A century of Moroccan history, interwoven with dazzling moments and memories.
A century of art and culture, shaped by the patient hands of master craftsmen and embellished by the vision of renowned artists.
A century of hospitality, a shining reflection of the generous soul of Marrakesh and its people.
Like an enticing invitation, Laurence Benaïm's delicate pen brings memories and images to life. In a graceful choreography, previously unpublished photographs and stories intertwine, taking us on a journey of discovery through this magnificent establishment. Page after page, La Mamounia reveals itself; vibrant and heart-stopping, infinitely beautiful and intensely alive.
The fruit of several months of research and meticulous work, this sumptuous book reads like an ode to this former palace which, through the centuries, has served as a stage to major events, been a discreet witness to precious moments, and a confidante to secrets exchanged in its luxuriant gardens, overlooked by the Atlas Mountains... A showcase of timeless elegance and remarkable refinement, it celebrates the poetry of zellige tiles, the dazzling finesse of the country's copperware, Berber craftsmanship and so many other Moroccan arts, all harmoniously paired with the spirit of Art Deco. It is also a sincere tribute to the men and women who, generation after generation, have brought La Mamounia to life and preserved it through the ages.
The prestigious publishing house, Assouline, dedicates this stunning book to all those who have ever crossed the threshold of La Mamounia, whether travellers passing through, anonymous or well-known – Winston Churchill, Yves Saint-Laurent, Jennifer Aniston, Juliette Binoche – from yesterday, today and tomorrow.
More than just a luxury hotel in Marrakesh, La Mamounia is a promise, and it is far from finished telling its tale and enchanting you with its inimitable art of living...
