Dar Darma
Marrakech, Morocco
If you're going to travel to a foreign country, you ought to try and embrace the local culture — and the Dar Darma offers it up in spades. Instead of a common hotel, it's actually a private residence built in the 1700s, with four suites and two apartments, the latter two offering in-room fireplaces. Other features include multiple outdoor terraces, a swimming pool, and a traditional hammam. Oh, and don't worry about the lack of a restaurant, either — the house cook is more than happy to fill your table with traditional dishes like hariri, tajine, and cous cous.
