Marrakech has hosted superstars from Paul Bowles to Richard Branson, whose long-awaited “kasbah” (fortress) hotel opened in March 2005. This practical guide shows seasoned visitors and first-timers how to make the most of this pink-walled city on the edge of the Atlas Mountains. More than 80 of the city’s famed riads (boutique hotels) are profiled, while maps of the labyrinthine alleys of the Old City mark every monument, museum, hotel, restaurant, and bar for easy reference. Local writers provide insightful coverage and analysis of local culture, traditions, and arts that have made Marrakech a magnet for the international set.

This review is from: Time Out Marrakech: And the Best of Morocco (Time Out Guides) (Paperback)

An exquisitely photographed guide to Marrakech, this book is especially valuable for its "behind-the-scenes" views of riads, the traditional inns that are often hidden from view in the medina (the ancient section of the city.) In addition to well-written critiques of hotels, restaurants, nightlife, shopping and attractions, Time Out: Marrakech also suggests memorable side trips to other regions, including romantic visits to dramatic mountain hideaways. If this book doesn't make you want to visit Morocco, nothing will!
