¿Por qué merece la pena visitar este lugar?

Why is Marrakech worth visiting?
With African, European, Islamic and Berber influences Marrakech is a very exciting, interesting city. As it ievolves it manages to combine a curious mix of opposites: it’s old and it’s new; It’s traditional and it’s modern; it’s elegant and it’s casual; it’s exotic and it’s familiar; it’s African and it’s European.

It makes for a very creative mix – as evidenced in the multitude of art galleries, evolving fashions, the music scene, new boutiques, hotels, restaurants with nouvelle Moroccan cuisine.

We’ve written about the changing scene in Marrakech via our blog www.chic-marrakech-riads.com that we update regularly to show case the latest developments.

The people are very friendly and extremely hospitable. The weather is fabulous most of the year – a great place for winter sun.

Marrakech is a destination just a couple of hours from Europe, perfect for a citybreak or as part of a longer Moroccan tour, offering an astonishing sensual profusion of colours, aromas, sounds, sights and sensations in a medieval atmosphere. Explore the souks, watch the performers, snake charmers, storytellers in the main square, Jemaa-el-Fna’, sample incredible food, dine on romantic rooftop restaurants, sip mint tea in elegant colonial-style cafes and generally soak up the atmosphere.

Staying in a riad, the traditional Marrakchi home with an inner courtyard, is the ideal way to have an authentic experience in Marrakech without having to give up your creature comforts.

¿Cómo es el típico huésped de este hotel?

Our guests are a mix of ages, from early twenties to retirees, evenly spread between females and males. We’ve had solo male travellers and solo female travellers. Many couples, including honeymoon couples, come for a relaxing break. Intrepid families come with their children – a great way for children above 7 to see a new culture and do a lot of learning about the world without having to ‘study’ anything.
