Eat / Drink / Stay in Marrakesh

Restaurants/Bars

The Main Bar at Royal Mansour

On Rue Abou Abbas El Sebti، 40000, Morocco

There are some places that take your breath away….this is one such place.  It is one of the most beautiful bars…..rooms for that matter…that I have ever visited.  A gorgeous Art Deco bar in wrought iron and glass, it just makes you feel good being there.  The drinks are impeccable and the staff is as what you would expect….top notch.  The hotel it is attached to is very exclusive but if you want to break the bank, this would be a good place to start.  

Restaurant le Méditerranée

Harti 8, Rue Oued El Makhazine, Marrakech 40000, Morocco

This restaurant is located in the modern part of town to the west and it offered a nice alternative to the Medina.  It also is a window into the future in Morocco I suspect.  Regardless, it was exquisite and delicious and offered great service.  I would go back without hesitation.  

Hotel in Marrakesh

L’Hôtel Marrakech

On Lahcen Ouest Ali, 41 Derb Sidi Massoud, Marrakesh 

While Marrakesh was wonderful, this hotel was the star of the show.  Deep in the heart of the Medina, this 19th century Riad, composed of five suites surrounding a beautiful garden and pool.  This serene setting offers a respite from the noise and crowd in the Medina and yet, you are just a short walk away from that activity when you choose.  In-suite dining was available and I enjoyed it every night and the wait staff was small and cordial as if you were a guest in their home.  Amazing!
