Property details

Stay in a gorgeous design hotel in the heart of the medina, mixing bold mid-century verve with traditional riad charm – includes breakfast, one optional dinner, welcome refreshments and more
  • Mid-century nostalgia: The Mellah Hotel blends the traditional courtyard and archways characteristic of Moroccan riads, with a spirited splash of modern, mid-century flair. Pinstripes, plants and a colour-palette of burgundy, olive green and warming yellows combine to create a laid-back 70s atmosphere as you settle into your beautifully-designed, retro haven in the heart of the buzzing medina.

  • Live the high life: Your hotel’s top draw is no doubt its rooftop terrace with a gorgeous tiled pool. Dip your toes as you catch a tan and sip on a freshly-made cocktail from the bar. Get lost in a juicy novel poolside, and gaze out across the terracotta roofs – with the mythical Atlas Mountains in the distance – as you ponder what you fancy for dinner from your hotel’s delightful restaurant. Come morning, an à la carte or continental breakfast awaits.

  • Boutique bliss: After a day well spent wandering around the magical, maze-like medina, return foot-weary and happy to stunning guest accommodations. Awash with soothing, soft colours, charming mosaic tiles and decadent plush bedding, these stylish sanctuaries will lull you into deep and dreamy repose. For the cherry on top, enjoy a relaxing massage to soothe any extra tension.

How to get there

Your hotel is conveniently located at about 20 minutes’ drive from Marrakesh Menara International Airport.

Location and what's nearby

The Mellah Hotel, 13 Derb Alaati Allah, Marrakesh 40000, Morocco

Since you’ll be staying within the UNESCO-listed Medina of Marrakech, you needn’t wander far to plumb the depths of Moroccan street culture. Browse colourful fare at the souks (markets), from authentic garments, soft leather bags and silver jewellery to amber, oud, spices and traditional cosmetics like kohl and argan oil. Come evening, marvel at street performers and entertainers, and if it’s too much sensory overload, be sure to take a calm breath in the scented air of Le Jardin Secret. The Museum of Oriental Art is well worth a visit, too.

Many wonders beyond the Medina await. Venture into the wild and beautiful sandscape of the Agafay Desert on a safari or guided tour, and marvel at the majestic peaks of the Atlas Mountains in the distance. For a truly exhilarating experience, see it all from the heights of a hot air balloon. There are many ancient villages set in the hillside surrounding Marrakesh where you can get a glimpse into life of the Imazighen people, and from here you can follow hiking trails up into the mountains.
