Fodor's Expert Review Sphinx Boutique Hotel
Bd. Moulay Youssef, Casablanca-Settat, Morocco
This enticing boutique hotel, set in a clean-lined 1950s villa, flawlessly balances modern comfort and vintage elegance. Its rooms and suites are design-oriented and the overall atmosphere is chic yet laid-back enough to make even children feel at home. An on-site restaurant, once frequented by French luminaries like Edith Piaf and Jacques Brel, offers a well-crafted French menu, while the garden area includes a lovely pool and patio where you can dine, drink, and generally luxuriate. It's packed on summer Sunday afternoon when there's a DJ.
