Overview
Mont Gueliz is a conventional hotel in the modern part of Marrakech, and its layout shows it. There are 36 rooms, each with a private balcony, and a panoramic rooftop terrace looks out over the Gueliz skyline towards the rest of the city.
The rooms are better equipped than many in the old city. They have both air-conditioning and central heating, which helps on cold winter nights as well as in summer, along with satellite TV and a telephone with international dialling.
Being in Gueliz rather than the Medina means wider streets, taxis that can reach the door, and shops and cafés nearby. Jemaa el-Fna is a short drive away.

Location
The hotel is in Gueliz, the new town laid out in the 20th century around Avenue Mohammed V. The neighbourhood is known for its shopping, galleries and cafés, and the Majorelle Garden and Marrakech railway station are both in this part of the city.
The property describes Jamaâ El Fna as a short drive away. Petits taxis are plentiful, or you can walk to the Medina walls along the avenue if you don't mind a longer stroll.
Good to know
- Central heating is worth noting: many Marrakech guest houses have little or none, and winter nights can be cold.
- Taxis can pull up outside, which makes arrivals with heavy luggage easier than in the Medina.
