"Bless the day Princess Letizia Ruspoli opened her Marrakech retreat to paying guests. She fell under the city’s spell several years back, and after chancing upon an old house close to the Sidi Benslimane mosque, gave top Marrakchi designer Gérome Vermelin free rein to renovate and decorate. His soothing choice of colours, textures and furnishings provides a perfect counterbalance to the sensual onslaught of the surrounding medina. Staying here you feel like a privileged guest of the Ruspoli family, even though they’re more likely to be in Rome or at their Chianti wine estate. The coolly elegant ground-floor reception rooms and high-ceilinged bedrooms turn around an inner covered patio. All are exquisite. Vermelin made inspired use of striped walls in subtle shades of cream and beige as the backdrop for oriental prints, intricately carved desks, tables, mirrors and lanterns. Dar Seven numbers amongst the most photographed retreats in Marrakech and a stay here will be a treat you’ll neither forget nor regret. Highs Bedrooms don’t come much better. Their subtle, finely orchestrated decoration is conducive to instant relaxation - and there are only fiveDar Seven has the feel of an elegant home and is the antithesis to the off-the-peg, chain hotelThe roof terrace is a memorable spot for an early breakfast, sundowner, romantic supper or glass of mint tea Staff always seem to be around when you need them yet make themselves scarce when you don’t; a reflection of Moroccan sensitivity and hospitality Lows Rooms have a high price tag, even for oh-so-hip Marrakech, although you do get lots of welcoming in-room touchesOnly the White room has a wooden door to the bathroom, the others have a curtainYour arrival is by way of a series of dark and narrow alleyways. But this area is perfectly safe, and once you enter you leave the outside world behind" - Guy Hunter Watts
"The house was purchased by an aristocratic Italian family who refashioned the place to their own personal taste. Don’t let the name mislead you: the hotel has just five guest rooms, meaning that the entire place is regularly booked out by families and small groups." - Tablet Hotels
