Morocco is a great destination (so great that I've been there 9 times, so far).
It is an oasis for people interested in interior design, rich culture and special, "pinnable" or "instagrammable" accommodation.
After this article you will know where to stay in Marrakech and which are the best hotels in Marrakech, Morocco.
Best hotels in Marrakech, Morocco are often called Riads. These are super cool Moroccan accommodations that I recommend staying in.
Traditional riad in Marrakech. Can't go wrong with this one.

This is a lovely place south from Marrakech, if you are in need for a getaway from the busy streets of Marrakech. This is a mindful retreat experience vibes kind of accommodation.
Berber lodge is a fantastic, retreat style stay south from Marrakech. So please note, this is not in the centre of Marrakech/Medina, but a car drive to south. This is an affordable, lovely experience in Moroccan rural area.

This has been one of my best stays in Marrakech - if this riad has availability during your stay in Marrakech, you shold definitely book it at least for a night or two.

A luxury riad with a rooftop bar, offering 12 uniquely decorate rooms. Located in the Mouassine district.
Nestled in the historic Bab Doukkala district of the Medina, Riad Nayanour, whose name beautifully translates to "new light" in Arabic, truly lives up to its name by offering a bright and airy sanctuary
A recently renovated riad paying tribute to the Berber people, with seven rooms named after Moroccan Berber villages. It embraces the Slow Food philosophy, with a chef who visits the local market daily to prepare fresh, traditional dishes with a modern touch. The riad also offers spa services and is committed to reducing plastic use.
A luxurious, palatial resort inspired by the rose-hued buildings of the Medina. If you want to add more to your experience, the hotel provides access to Marrakech's souks and palaces, as well as guided tours to the Agafay Desert and Atlas Mountains
A "House of Friends" with three tranquil courtyards, one with a 10m pool, and 14 rooms named after icons of Morocco’s counter-culture past. It features a fusion of Moroccan, Arabian, and Mediterranean cuisine, and showcases a significant collection of Contemporary and Digital Art.
Owned by Jasper Conran, this 19th-century riad combines superb Moroccan craftsmanship with antique furniture, textiles, and art from Conran's collection.
It features six spacious suites around a wide courtyard garden and swimming pool, with a roof terrace offering views of the Atlas Mountains. The design evokes the elegance of 1930s hotels.
An elegant private mansion near the Marrakech Museum and Medersa Ben Youssef, offering wide suites, lounge areas, a hammam, and a rooftop pool with views of the Medina and Atlas Mountains.
