Tea at La Mamounia, a magical moment

Teatime at La Mamounia – An Enchanting Interlude

It is a beautiful afternoon in Marrakech and you’re just back from a shopping trip with friends to the luxury boutiques of the exclusive Hivernage and Gueliz quarters, or perhaps returning from a visit to the Bahia Palace. Happy and contented, you decide to prolong the fun with an indulgent break and where better for that unforgettable afternoon-tea experience than La Mamounia.

In this world-renowned palace hotel, guests have the choice of two tea rooms. With Pierre Hermé at the helm of both, there is Le Menzeh, nestled in the heart of the hotel’s enchanting parkland, or Le Salon de Thé continuing on from La Mamounia gallery.

Depending on how the mood takes you, why not soak up the gentle poetry of the Gardens in the shade of this picturesque and historic pavilion or enjoy an exquisitely intimate moment tucked away from prying eyes…

And now, all that remains to be done is to sit back and succumb to Pierre Hermé’s sweet indulgences that come in an array of pastries, ice creams, chocolate delights and his signature macaroons.

While on a beautiful copperware display case perch traditional Moroccan ghribas, horns of gazelles and other deliciously tempting little cakes.

It is a kaleidoscope of colours that sets the senses ablaze and tantalises the tastebuds, offering a mouth-watering experience to be shared with both friends and lovers alike.

Beguiled by these magical surroundings, you will no doubt wish to prolong this teatime experience with perhaps a favourite tipple and some freshly-made savoury snacks.

But time is of the essence and the clock ticks on, so why not call upon our takeaway service and extend this exquisite La Mamounia moment for just a little while longer…
