Marrakech

As title really, I've done some research but anyone got any recommendations on accomodation and other stuff? Looking at end of May / June.

Cheers all

I got back on Monday from a week there. We stayed in the Riu Tikida Gardens and had a great time there. All inclusive so loads of food and drink. The cocktails weren't up to much but the wine and beer was fine. It seemed smaller and more personal than some of the hotels we'e stayed in recently which was nice. It was a little way out of town but had a free bus to get you in and out.

We'd go back there.

I have some friends going to the Riu Tikida Gardens beginning of may, but its their first time, so no feedback yet.

We booked the Jardins De La Koutoubia for our honeymoon last July, but unfortunately due to illness we never made it. Looks like it could be very nice though

I stayed at La Mamounia last year. Very nice.

Overall though I wasn't that impressed with Marrakech and the constant hassle wherever I went.

Others have told me better to go to Fez or Casablanca.

Also if the hotel offers a collection from the airport I would take it as the local taxis can be somewhat variable.

Plenty to see, depends on your tolerance level.

Here's a write up I did a while back. Hope it gives you a good flavour of what to expect.

Thanks Guys, after a bit more reading up it looks like we might go for 11 days, take an overnight stay in Essaouira and split the rest between Marrakech and Fes. I've not one for sitting around so this way we get two day chill on the beach and some different experiences of the country.
