Hotel information
Paying a vibrant homage to the Arabian horse, Selman Marrakech offers unique horse-related experiences found nowhere else in the world. Including dressage, liberty, ‘equitherapy’, corporate coaching and more, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to these equestrian activities.

From savouring a signature dinner in the elegant stables to enjoying the ‘Chenot method’ in the exclusive Chenot Spa, there’s something for the whole family or couples looking to create unforgettable memories. You even have access to gastronomic experiences with private parades of Arabian thoroughbreds, whether on the esplanade, in the stable or on the roof of the Moroccan restaurant. To cool off, there’s also an 80-metre-long swimming pool – the longest of its kind in Africa.
