L'OLIVERAIE DE L'ATLAS

I chose L' Oliveraie de atlas due to the location of the hotel being outside of Marrakesh ( 30 mins outside of Marrakesh by car ). Located among olive and orange trees and amazing gardens, L' Oliveraie de atlas consists of one main building with the restaurant with a handful of rooms. Within the grounds there are three amazing riads that house bedrooms and suites with various pools . Due to travelling around Morocco, I ended up staying in four different rooms, all absolutely stunning with no issues. I found this a very quiet and relaxing environment to be in . The hotel was ideal to also come back to after several days away touring in Morocco. The food was outstanding, the breakfast buffet was typical continental moroccan, better than what I had while I was away in other hotels across Morocco. The coffee is Nespresso , so not bad coffee at all for a serious coffee drinker! They supply a taxi service to and from the centre of Marrakesh twice a day should you need it , however I did not need this at the time. The hotel also provides taxis to the city centre or the airport at discount. Having got a quote for £ 60.00 from the airport to L'Oliveraie de atlas , they provided a taxi for €25.00 The hotel provides a spa which I took advantage of, this I fully recommend, one of the best massage for several years. ( If you do have spa , this is located in Riad jardin). The staff were friendly and could not do enough to help you. It was very friendly , family atmosphere and i'm looking forward to going back soon .

Lunch and dinner food , location, views , service . We had a heatwave so extra bonus . The pools although cold but it is March one was dirty . Gardens are beautiful, waitors are so good but seem to work long hours and run off there feet . Jacuzzi outside wasn't on but there is a drought! Small fridge in room , bonus . We were in Z9 . They sell alcohol even in Ramadan but alot cheaper in Marrakesh. Carfour didn't sell alcohol but Champion market had large selection and lovely whites for under £5 . We like the bottle La Cuvee du Terroir . You must show him your passport and you can buy as much as you want . Car is essential, once you are out of Marrakesh it's a doddle but not for the faint hearted in Marrakesh. Jezzz . !!

Beautifully kept gardens and lovely swimming pool. Lovely room in pretty Riad. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Great for chilling but plenty to do in nearby Marrakech which is about 25mins drive. The hotel have a free shuttle service but if the times don’t suit then they will organise a taxi.

Peaceful spot with views of the atlas mountains - much needed after the madness of Marrakesh! Great food and service, not too many guests, no racing for a sunlounger! Great value, beautiful gardens, would defo go back.

If you are looking for a place out of the city where you can relax and enjoy the nature, this is a hotel I totally recommend. It’s just 15 min away from the city center of Marrakech and there is a shuttle that brings you there. Furthermore the staff were friendly and nice to us. We also appreciated the flexibility. We travelled with a baby and the hotel staff provided us dinner at 5:30 instead of 8 pm which is the normal time. Overal good experience!
