Truly, the epitome of style and comfort
The Royal Palm is an icon in Mauritius and regarded by many as the finest hotel on the island. Located in the sheltered and popular north-west area, on the edge of the vibrant Grand Baie, the hotel is known for its uncompromising superb standards and service.
The all-suite accommodation offers exceptionally beautiful and large rooms and bathrooms, where all the latest facilties blend cleverly with traditional décor including wooden furnture created by local artisans.
There are three pools; a spectacular Spa using Art of Wellness natural local products and a sports centre offering complimentary land and water activites. The three restaurants offer award-winning fine and diverse dining.
The Royal Palm is perfect for those small senior level groups accustomed to staying in the top hotels in the world.
Hosmarkhotels ‘Going Greener’ strategy has been developed as MICE, leisure & business travel markets are beginning to concentrate their activities on suppliers that have strong green credentials. As many of our partners are in diverse destinations, it is key that the hotels are operated in a sustainable way and that the impact of tourism does not have an adverse effect on the indigenous people and wider environment of that country.
Many of our hotel partners are committed to environmental, social and cultural conservation across their locations and are working towards recognised accreditations. As such, we have asked our hotels to provide details of their policies and activities in our survey below. More information and links to the evidence that support this survey can be found here: This hotel's Green Survey
