This hotel was amazing and Jill, the wonderful woman at helm there, is very warm and knowledgeable about the area and the best places to go. Make sure to leave extra room in your bag as there are some wonderful Moroccan things to buy such as spices and home decor. For a sophisticated dinner head to Bo & Zin about 10 min out of town and quite a cool scene. Enjoy Marrakech!
If out and about in the souks and you need a reliable and scenic refreshment stop, check out Cafe Arabe. Sitting up on the rooftop is a must – don't let them seat you anywhere else – the view across rooftops to the mountains is fantastic on a clear day.
Damien recommended an amazing restaurant called Narwama at 30 Hay Zefritit, Rue Koutoubia close to Djemaa el Fna square but, is not a place you would stumble across. Great atmosphere and Fantastic food, well worth a visit.
On the flip side you must at least one evening visit the Djemaa el Fna square, enjoy the buzzing atmosphere and eat at one of the many outside stalls and what makes this even better is how cheap it was!
Would highly recommend eating/drinking/people-watching at Bo-zin – great fusion food and lots of atmosphere with DJ and lots of beautiful people.
The Majorelle Garden is the perfect place to visit for some shade, greenery and tranquillity. Have a fruit drink in the cafe and chill.
