To start your Moroccan experience, you must first find a place to stay. There is a huge variety of accommodation in Marrakech and with such a large choice from large luxury hotels down to four to eight roomed riads and modern apartments, finding the right place can be hit and miss. Our suggestion would be to go for the best of both worlds, i.e. the last word in modern comforts but with plenty of authentic local character added. Les Borjs de la Kasbah is one such, a 5 star luxury boutique hotel in Marrakech, well placed within comfortable walking distance of the centre yet far enough away from its hurly burly to be remarkably peaceful by comparison. Having found your place to stay you'll need some suggestions for things to see and do so here's a short beginner's guide to visiting Marrakech. Visit the ancient medina and admire the 13th century walls that surround it. The souk, one of the largest in Morocco, is a tourist's dream, such is the variety of artefacts and souvenirs you'll find there. Take an official guide to show you round, with visits to a couple of palaces and museums included.
