Kerten Hospitality has announced the signing of Cloud 7 Hotel Dersa Tetuan in Morocco, marking its entry into the country's growing hospitality market. The hotel, located in Tetouan's historic Dersa building,
will feature 63 rooms, including family suites, and several food and beverage outlets. The project aims to preserve the building's original facade while offering a modern hospitality experience. This expansion reflects Kerten Hospitality's strategy to leverage Tetouan's rising tourism and arts scene, introducing a new standard of lifestyle hospitality in the region.

The entry of Kerten Hospitality into Morocco signifies the growing appeal of the country's tourism sector, which is attracting international investment. This development is likely to boost local economies, create jobs, and enhance Tetouan's cultural and tourism profile. For the U.S., Morocco's expanding hospitality industry presents opportunities for American businesses in tourism, real estate, and cultural exchanges. The project also highlights the potential for increased collaboration between Moroccan and international companies, fostering economic growth and cultural understanding.
What's Next?
As Kerten Hospitality prepares to open Cloud 7 Hotel Dersa Tetuan, the focus will be on completing the renovation and ensuring the hotel meets the expectations of modern travelers. The hotel is set to open in 2027, and its success could lead to further investments in Morocco's hospitality sector. Local stakeholders, including government and tourism agencies, may collaborate to promote Tetouan as a prime destination for cultural and experiential travel. The U.S. may explore partnerships to support Morocco's tourism growth and strengthen bilateral relations.
