If you never visited Marrakesh, you might fall in love with the centenary architecture, history, colors, the smells of the spices in the souks. Well, we were in Marrakesh and we loved it!

There is plenty of hotels and riads to choose from everywhere in the city but there is an ultra-privileged location: the famous Jemaa el-Fna square.

In the sourrings of Jemaa el-Fna square you will find from low-cost riad to 5 stars hotels and in both situations you might find very good quality and very welcoming people. The riad is usually a kind of guest house were usually you can meet the comfort of a bed with traditional buildings, local culture and the long-established tasty cuisine.

If you want to stay in the heart of Marrakesh, an hotel or riad inside the medina (the old town) is the best to experience the culture and the amazing fusion of the tradition mixed in the cosmopolitan city.

He used to travel from Paris to Marrakesh and stay in his villa for long periods of time to find inspiration.
