In a city known for its rich history and dynamic culture, Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts has unveiled its latest property—Four Seasons Hotel Rabat at Kasr Al Bahr.
Set against the stunning backdrop of Morocco’s capital, this new hotel brings a fresh wave of luxury hospitality to one of the city’s most prestigious landmarks.
The property is nestled in the historic Quartier l’Océan, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the architectural elegance of Rabat, making it a perfect base for travelers looking to explore the city’s vibrant culture, cuisine, and history.
Four Seasons Hotel Rabat marks the latest expansion of the brand’s diverse portfolio in Morocco. Rainer Stampfer, President of Global Operations at Four Seasons, described the hotel as a blend of local heritage and world-class luxury. “At Four Seasons, we are always inspired by the destination that surrounds us in planning a new experience for our guests, and that is certainly the case in Rabat,” he said.
A Gateway to Rabat’s Cultural and Historic Riches
The hotel’s location in the heart of the capital provides guests with easy access to some of Rabat’s most renowned attractions, many of which are recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites. The 12th-century Kasbah des Oudaias, with its charming boutiques and bistros, the beautifully preserved Andalusian Gardens, and the bustling alleyways of the medina are just a few of the nearby highlights. For those seeking modernity, the Grand Theatre of Rabat, designed by renowned architect Zaha Hadid, stands as a testament to the city’s evolving skyline. The hotel’s concierge team is ready to curate personalized itineraries that ensure every guest experiences the best of Rabat’s blend of history and modernity.
Rooms with Stunning Views and Lavish Comforts
The Four Seasons Hotel Rabat offers 200 opulent rooms and suites, each designed to maximize comfort while showcasing Moroccan artistry. The interiors, designed by Roger Nazarian and Associates, are adorned with traditional Moroccan Zellige tiles, brass fixtures, and stained glass, providing an authentic yet modern aesthetic. Many of the rooms offer views of the Atlantic or the hotel’s lush gardens, with select suites featuring private terraces, plunge pools, and spacious living areas.
Among the standout accommodations are the three-bedroom Moulay Slimane Presidential Suite, named after the Moroccan king who originally commissioned the “Palace by the Sea.” This suite offers an expansive residential experience, complete with a private fitness room, office, and rooftop infinity pool. For those seeking ultimate luxury, the two-storey Sultan’s Riad covers 950 square meters and features an ocean-view rooftop infinity pool, making it the crowning jewel of the hotel’s offerings.
A New Dining Destination in Rabat
Guests at Four Seasons Hotel Rabat can enjoy a culinary journey that blends Moroccan flavors with international influences. Led by Sebastiano Spriveri, the hotel’s Executive Chef, the dining options cater to a variety of tastes. Signature venues include Brasserie Marie, a Parisian-style bistro offering everything from fresh seafood to grilled meats, and Flamme, where the aromas of Moroccan spices fill the air as pizzas and freshly baked dishes emerge from three copper-clad ovens.
For those looking for a more relaxed experience, Noora Lobby Lounge offers an exquisite afternoon tea crafted by Gregory Chrismant, the hotel’s Executive Pastry Chef. Guests can also enjoy the sleek ambiance of Bar Atlantique, where mixologists create unique cocktails inspired by global trends.
Later this year, the hotel will debut Verdello, a restaurant that will take diners on a tour of Mediterranean coastal cuisines. Adding to the allure is the soon-to-open Laila Lounge, a hidden, club-like space offering a curated cocktail experience with rare cognacs and whiskies.
Relaxation and Wellness in the Heart of the City
The Four Seasons Hotel Rabat is more than just a luxury destination; it’s a resort-like retreat. Set across five hectares of lush gardens and historic courtyards, the hotel’s serene environment makes it easy to forget that you’re in the middle of a bustling capital city. Guests can unwind by one of the two outdoor pools, or relax in private cabanas surrounded by the sound of ocean waves.
A standout feature of the hotel is its Spa and Wellness Centre, set to open later this year. The spa will offer a range of wellness rituals and indulgent treatments in its ten treatment rooms, alongside a Moroccan hammam, an elegant indoor pool, and a beauty salon. Guests can also take advantage of the 24/7 fitness center, which offers ocean views and an outdoor yoga studio.

In addition to its luxurious accommodations and leisure offerings, Four Seasons Hotel Rabat is set to become a prime destination for events and meetings in Morocco. The hotel boasts 2,700 square meters of event space, including the grand Royal Ballroom, which can host up to 1,000 guests.
