La Maison Arabe has a history as rich as the city of Marrakech itself. It began its life as a renowned restaurant in 1940, but fell into disrepair until it was carefully renovated back to its original beauty, with age old techniques that set traditional Marrakech homes apart from those in the rest of Morocco. From hand polished agate stone, detailed cedar wood ceilings, breathtaking cupolas and chiseled plaster, every aspect of renovation was kept as traditional and original as possible.
