Synopsis

Only three hours from London, and served by an increasing number of airlines, Marrakech is becoming newly fashionable as a long-weekend break for fine dining, specialist shopping and exquisite 'hip hotel' accommodation. The rapid growth of stylish new venues (and the international A-list celebs they attract) has made the city a staple of travel features in the style press, and Time Out is the first guidebook to go beyond the backpack and reflect the new developments that have turned Marrakech into one of the most chic cities in the world. Time Out Marrakech also includes coverage of the hotspots within easy reach of Marrakech, from escapes into the Atlas Mountains to boho beach chilling in Essaouira.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Only three hours from London, and served by an increasing number of airlines, Marrakech is becoming newly fashionable as a long-weekend break for fine dining, specialist shopping and exquisite 'hip hotel' accommodation. The rapid growth of stylish new venues has made the city a staple of travel features in the style press.
Marrakech's hip quotient show no signs of flagging. Movie heartthrob Colin Farrell set up headquarters in the bar of the Sheraton there while filming Oliver Stone's Alexander in the deserts and mountains outside town, which is also where Richard Branson's long-awaited 'kasbah' (fortress) hotel opens in March. Meanwhile, Branson's sister Vanessa has just had her new boutique hotel make it on to Conde Nast's annual list of the world's hottest accommodation. In fact, such is the continued celeb and A-list pull of this tiny little market town on the edge of the Atlas Mountains that it now even has its first members' club, occupying a historic old palatial residence at the heart of the Old City's bazaar district.
The new Time Out Guide, of course, covers all these new spots, while also providing insightful coverage and analysis of local culture, traditions and arts that have made this pink-walled city such a magnet for the international fashion, film and high-society set.
Time Out Marrakech also includes coverage of the hotspots within easy reach of Marrakech, from escapes into the Atlas Mountains to boho beach chilling in Essaouira.
