“In Marrakesh's Gueliz district, this property strikes a balance as an urban base for exploring the city. I noted the rooftop pool, offering views extending to the Atlas Mountains, which could provide a welcome respite. It seems like a practical choice, especially given its location a short drive from the airport and key attractions.”

Fantastic Stay!

ideal location security service great staff

I found the location ideal! The hotel is near many shops, restaurants and cafés, made exploring very convenient. The 24-hour security also gave me peace of mind, as the area felt quite safe. I will definitely book again.

The reception staff was not very helpful when I had a complaint early in the morning, the receptionist was sleeping on the couch in front of the hotel and they spoke in Arabic in front of the guest.

Breakfast included a reasonable selection. Most guests should find something appealing. The breakfast room had seating for approximately 40 people and was restocked regularly, so I never experienced long waits. There was fresh fruit, pastries and hot options.
