What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Michlifen Resort is a mountain retreat with the bones of an Alpine lodge and the soul of a Moroccan palace.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set above the alpine town of Ifrane, the property overlooks pristine cedar groves with sweeping views stretching toward distant peaks.
The rooms
Suites feature carved woodwork and roll-top bathtubs, styled across Nordic, Tyrolean, Savoyard, and American lodge themes.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The outdoor swimming pool sits on an elevated terrace surrounded by cedar trees and mountain ridgelines.
The spa & gym
At the table
Cocktails are shaken under timber beams at Lounja Bar, and stone terraces open for dinner at dusk.
How it began
Opened in 1973 with interiors by André Paccard, the retreat was later rebuilt with local Timahdit stone and slate.
