Le Doge Hotel & Spa is an intimate Art Deco address in central Casablanca, housed in a former private mansion in the city’s historic Art Deco district. With only 16 rooms and suites, it provides a characterful alternative to Casablanca’s larger international hotels and fits particularly well into a journey focused on the city’s architecture and urban history.
The hotel’s design deliberately evokes the glamour of the 1930s. Each room is inspired by a different cultural figure associated with the Art Deco era, creating a collection of individual interiors rather than a standardised room product.
Sixteen rooms and suites
The 16 rooms and suites take inspiration from figures including Coco Chanel and Ernest Hemingway, with fabrics, colours, furniture and decorative details selected to create a distinct identity for each space. Modern amenities sit within the period styling, so the concept does not come at the expense of comfort.
Because the rooms differ in both atmosphere and size, it is worth selecting a category rather than simply taking whichever is available. Private Hideaway Escapes can confirm the current options for the chosen dates.
Le Jasmine and the rooftop
Dining is split between different moods. Le Jasmine focuses on Moroccan cuisine, while Le Doge Cafe provides a Mediterranean-influenced rooftop setting for drinks and lighter food. The rooftop is particularly useful in a city where much of the architecture is best appreciated from street level during the day.
Library and lounge spaces reinforce the private-house feeling and make the hotel pleasant for a short pause between city excursions.
Spa and Casablanca exploration
The intimate spa offers massages and hammam experiences, providing welcome downtime during a city stay. Casablanca itself rewards travellers prepared to look beyond the airport: Art Deco streets, the Hassan II Mosque, markets, galleries, restaurants and the Atlantic Corniche reveal a modern Moroccan city with a different character from the imperial capitals.
Le Doge’s location makes architecture-focused touring particularly appropriate, and a private guide can help reveal buildings that are easily overlooked.

Good to know
Le Doge is deliberately small. Travellers wanting a large pool, extensive gardens or resort facilities should look to a larger city hotel, while those who value individuality and central character are likely to prefer this format. Casablanca works particularly well at the beginning or end of a Moroccan journey.
Why stay at Le Doge Hotel & Spa?
Le Doge gives Casablanca personality. Rather than treating the city as a logistical overnight, it encourages guests to engage with its Art Deco heritage, restaurants and modern Moroccan identity. Private Hideaway Escapes can build a focused Casablanca stay around the hotel or use it as a stylish transition between the airport and a wider itinerary.
