Known for its indescribable charm, the change of scenery it offers, and its breathtaking architecture, the Red City amazes numerous visitors daily. Enjoyable year-round, it offers many activities that never grow tiresome. Here are some fantastic places to discover in Marrakech for an even more enchanting stay!
Accommodation
Marrakech is renowned for its many riads when it comes to accommodation. While you can find hotels at more reasonable prices, we recommend spending at least one night in these traditional Moroccan urban houses. Often built around a patio, usually with a garden or swimming pool, these buildings embody the essence of oriental style. From mosaics to typical and trendy decorations, a stay in such accommodations is always a delightful escape.
