Hospitality giant The Oberoi Group announced that the hotel company will open a hotel under the Oberoi brand in Marrakech, Morocco, on December 1. The Oberoi, Marrakech, has 84 rooms, suites and villas, the Group said in a statement.

Four years on from the initial announcement in 2015, Indian hotel chain Oberoi has announced that it will be opening its long-awaited luxury hotel in Marrakech in December.

The luxurious hotel, which is surrounded by 28-acres of gardens, combines Indian influences with traditional Moroccan style. It has 84 rooms, suites, and villas, 76 of which include swimming pools and private gardens.

The hotel, which is located 20 minutes from Jemaa El Fna, also has three restaurants offering a menu of international and Moroccan specialties, as well as a kids club and a wellness area.

As homage to the historical city in which the hotel resides, the courtyard of the hotel's main building is influenced by the renowned Ben Youssef Madrasa, a Koranic school of Marrakech built in the early fourteenth century.
