FESTIVE PROGRAMME AT EL FENN

Deep azure skies, bright sunshine and low-key celebrations: Christmas is a great time of year to visit Marrakech. Expect candlelit courtyards, open fires and the snow-capped Atlas Mountains in the distance.

Here at El Fenn, our chefs have created special festive menus that bring together Moroccan flavours, Mediterranean influences and exceptional seasonal produce.

Our celebrations will start with a festive feast on Christmas day and celebration afternoon tea. We’ll also be serving chef specials at dinner each evening from 24-30 December and will host a gala dinner and party under the stars on New Year’s Eve. 

If you’re planning to stay with us this year, we have a few rooms still available and our cosy rooms {link} have been newly reworked to feature jewel-box colours, oversized art and hand-woven rugs. 

Here’s what’s on. And, if you’d like to join us, please do book soon.

 

FESTIVE SHARING DINNER MENU

25 December 7pm & 9.15pm

We’ll be serving a five-course dinner featuring our pick of the best seasonal produce ranging from oysters and lobster, to roast duck with wild mushrooms. The meal will end with a chestnut cream Mont Blanc dessert.  

The set menu is 980 MAD per person, excluding drinks, or 1,450 MAD per person, with a wine pairing. You can also order à la carte and add a 15g caviar supplement for 450 MAD. Have a look at the full menu below and book via email.

Can’t join us on Christmas day? The festive menu is available as chef’s specials for dinner from 24 to 30 December. 

 

 

CHRISTMAS DAY AFTERNOON TEA

25 December 4pm to 6pm

 

One of El Fenn’s most recognisable rituals will be given a festive spin on 25 December. A special afternoon tea will feature seasonal classics, spiced hot drinks and a festive glass of champagne.

All ages are welcome, and there’ll also be a chocolate and gingerbread workshop to keep even our smallest guests occupied.

This one is just for those staying with us, and afternoon tea is complimentary for all hotel guests.

NEW YEAR AT EL FENN

31 December, from 7pm

We’re seeing out the year in true Marrakech style, with a rooftop dinner and dancing under the stars.

The five-course menu starts with a Moroccan citrus carpaccio, roast langoustines and wild turbot before a main course of roast fillet of beef with slow-cooked celeriac and fig and caramel dessert. Then see in midnight with live music and a DJ set to keep your feet moving. 

The five-course menu is 2,950 MAD per person, and you can add a 15g caviar supplement for 450 MAD.
