Marrakech Heaven
Review of Marrakech (Morocco) by Snuggy99

Advantages: Not far to travel, hot, great food, excellent shopping
Disadvantages: No booze in the old city

I've been to Marrakech a few times now and it seems to be changing all the time. For instance, I went in March 08 and there was an open air tour bus which would never have been there in 2007! I think they've finally realised that they can tap into the tourist trade more than they currently do, so if you're thinking of going, go now rather than later and before it loses some of it's charm. I've only ever stayed in hostels which I've booked directly ...
...the Lonely Planet guide. I normally pay about £7 per night for a room with a view and private bathroom and the standards are very high. The shopping is brilliant but again the prices are going up so you have to hunt extra hard to find a bargain! The traders are also keen to play the barttering game so go for it :D ... Read review

Flying Carpets Anyone?
Review of Marrakech (Morocco) by elisemarie9

Advantages: It will be pretty when fully built
Disadvantages: No information given at all

I flew out to Marrakech on a Wednesday and returned on the Sunday, both flights were quite early and with no time difference, meant I landed at reasonable times due to the flight time being only around three hours from Gatwick. I spent the holiday relaxing by the pool and sunbathing so I can't comment on Marrakech "The Place", what I do want to review is the airport. When we landed, we walked a short distance from the plane to the terminal - fair ...
...in after being informed that Marrakech does not follow the same check in rules as Gatwick (ie. 3 hour check in). However, half an hour prior to our flight taking off there was still no information about which gate to check in through. Eventually, fearing that the plane would leave without announcing itself or calling for us (or having it all done in French only despite it going to Britain) we approached a random gate who checked us in with no problem. ...

Miss S
Review of Marrakech (Morocco) by Jane7979

Advantages: Peaceful, beautiful riad
Disadvantages: Pollution, tat in markets, beggers, cats, transport

I agree that Marrakesh is not so magical. I went there with my boyfriend for a romantic week away. It was anything but romantic. Taxi from the airport dumped us in the main square, a 30 minute walk from our riad. Got ripped off by another taxi getting to the riad. Riad was closed!!! Waited 10 minutes for the manager to return. The riad was in the heart of the medina/ To get a taxi involved a 10 minute walk through dirty streets lined with beggars ... Read review

Diamond review   48 hours in Marrakech (Morroco)
Review of Marrakech (Morocco) by Tink27

Advantages: Beautiful climate, friendly + helpful locals,respectful people, great shopping,out of this world! :)
Disadvantages: hassel to buy, quite dusty (not great when you've got a cold)

...the roads and streets. Marrakech is a city in Morocco, North Africa. The two main languages spoken in Marrakech are French and Arabic. 98% of the population are Muslim with the other 2% being mainly Christian. Many Europeans do live in Marrakech and many having holiday homes there. The currency conversion rate is: 1 United Kingdom Pounds (GBP) = 15.84 Morocco Durham's (MAD) The most expenses spent are usually in the UK to and from the airport. ...
...with four friends, travelled to Marrakech - three of us only staying for 2 nights (literally 48 hours!) and the other two for 3 nights. Believe it or not, there is an abundance of things to do and places to see in such little time! From the famous Souks, Djemaa el-Fna, The Kutubiyya Mosque, and of course the delightful Atlas Mountains! And so much more! We left the cold and rainy London on December 7th 2007 and just 3 and a half hours later landed ... Read review

Magical Marrakech
Review of Marrakech (Morocco) by marksmayo

Advantages: Old town Marrakech - food, fun, history, foreign delight
Disadvantages: New town Marrakech, and con-men on the street, trying to get money off you

...the 11th century walls, and Marrakech comes alive. During the day you navigate the maze of alleyways, shops, merchants, while dodging the bustling people, bicycles and motorbikes(!) speeding around busily. It's an interesting place, it''s a place of history - with palaces, souks, the main square market and many old buildings, it's a place of intrigue - belly dancing, smoking shishas, snake charmers, and it's a place of gastronomical delight - from ...
...in town, so take a trip - a day trip to the nearby valleys, or to the Atlas mountains - Marrakech and Morocco have so much to offer. A final word of warning - you WILL get lost in old town, but it's half the fun - enjoy it! ... Read review
