Hilton  is accelerating its plans to more than double its portfolio in Morocco with the signing of nine hotels across seven of its global brands, including the debut of its iconic Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts brand in the capital city of Rabat, as well as the introduction of its luxury LXR Hotels & Resorts, lifestyle Curio Collection by Hilton, and value-driven Hampton by Hilton brands to the country.

Carlos Khneisser, vice president, Development, Middle East and Africa, Hilton, said, “With 13.1 million[1] tourists visiting Morocco in the first nine months of this year, an increase of around two million compared to the same period last year, the country is experiencing significant momentum as a sought-after tourist destination. These nine new signings will add more than 1,300 rooms and around 1,500 team members to Hilton’s growing portfolio in Morocco, where we plan to expand our footprint to over 20 hotels in the coming years. The introduction of new brands – and expansion of existing ones – demonstrates our commitment to catering to the different needs of guests visiting the country where we’ve enjoyed a strong legacy dating back almost six decades. We look forward to working closely with our valued owners to deliver Hilton’s globally recognised hospitality to guests at these outstanding hotels.”


Hilton Bolsters Luxury & Lifestyle Presence in Morocco

Hilton has partnered with O Tower to bring Rabat’s first Waldorf Astoria property to the capital city, and with Yamed Group to debut the first LXR Hotels & Resorts and Curio Collection by Hilton properties in the country.

Waldorf Astoria Rabat Salé

Waldorf Astoria Rabat Salé is slated to open in 2025 and will be part of a mixed-use development which is set to be the tallest building in Morocco – towering 250 metres high across 55 floors and featuring office spaces, residences, and an observatory. The hotel will offer 55 guest rooms and suites, two specialty restaurants, Waldorf Astoria’s signature Peacock Alley, personal concierge services, a pool restaurant, meeting and board room spaces, a spa, an outdoor and infinity pool, and a fitness studio. 

The Mohammed VI Tower will be a focal point of the new development phase of the Bouregreg Valley, a key component of the government’s ‘Rabat City of Light, Moroccan Capital of Culture’ programme. Surrounding developments include the Grand Theatre of Rabat, designed by renowned architectural firm Zaha Hadid Architects, as well as various iconic projects as musuems, a marina, and a mall.

Marking the country debut of LXR Hotels & Resorts, Hilton’s award-winning collection of independent luxury hotels, the highly anticipated property is expected to open in 2025 and will be located in Casablanca’s ‘Triangle d’Or’ as part of the ‘Metropolitan’ development, a high-end mixed-use project encompassing residential, retail, offices, and hotels.
