bel appartement au cœur de Gueliz Overview

You know what really struck me about this place? The moment you walk into this apartment on Avenue Hassan II, you’re not dealing with some sterile hotel lobby – you’re stepping into what feels like a well-appointed Moroccan home, just one that happens to be perfectly positioned in the heart of Gueliz. I mean, the location alone is honestly unbeatable if you want to experience modern Marrakech without being stuck in the tourist maze of the medina.

The apartment itself is spacious in that way that makes you forget you’re in a city center – I was actually surprised by how quiet it stays despite being right on one of the main arteries. The Residence Nelya building is solid, and you can tell they’ve put thought into the details here. The kitchen is fully equipped (and I mean actually equipped, not just the basics), which is perfect because there’s this fantastic little market just a few blocks down where you can grab fresh produce and spices. The Wi-Fi is reliable – worked great for video calls back home – and the air conditioning is a godsend during those scorching Marrakech afternoons. What I loved most was the balcony view; you get this perfect slice of Gueliz life happening below, with the Atlas Mountains peeking through in the distance on clear days.

But here’s the thing that really sets this place apart – you’re literally walking distance from everything that matters in Gueliz. The Carré Eden shopping center is maybe ten minutes on foot, and you’ve got cafés like Café du Livre and restaurants scattered all around. It’s that sweet spot where you can grab a proper espresso in the morning, then duck into a traditional hammam in the afternoon. The 8.9 rating makes total sense once you’ve stayed here; it’s not trying to be flashy or over-the-top, it’s just genuinely comfortable and well-run. Check-in was smooth (they actually met me at the building entrance, which was helpful since the residence entrance isn’t super obvious from the street), and honestly, the host was the kind of person who gives you actual local recommendations instead of just pointing you toward tourist traps. If you’re looking for that authentic Marrakech experience without sacrificing modern comfort – and you don’t want to navigate the medina’s narrow alleys with your luggage – this apartment hits all the right notes.

Reviews of bel appartement au cœur de Gueliz

  • Exceptional – Christian from France – 7 July 2024 (10/10)

    L’agencement de l’appartement et l’accueil chaleureux de notre hôte.

  • Appartamento consigliato a Marrakech – Protti from Italy – 26 May 2024 (9/10)

    L'appartamento è molto comodo e spazioso, situato in un quartiere moderno ma centrale. Pulito e confortevole, le camere sono ampie e c'è anche un terrazzino. Amhed che si occupa di ricevere gli ospiti è molto disponibile ed efficiente. Lo stabile è sempre sorvegliato da un portiere.

    What could be improved: Unico suggerimento: qualche pentola e padella in più potrebbero far comodo a chi ogni tanto vuole prepararsi una cena o un pranzo a casa

  • Good location near the train station. Apartment needs fixing e.g. light, curtain. Otherwise ok. – Phillis from Hong Kong – 21 May 2024 (8/10)

    What could be improved: Difficult to find apartment. No address provided, we had looked around for a long time. The guard does not speak English and did not help us to contact Landlord. We waited for a long time to contact the landlord via booking.com

  • Exceptional – 1 from United Kingdom – 17 April 2024 (10/10)

  • We enjoyed the location and the hospitality very much and would love to go back – Manubhai from United Kingdom – 8 March 2024 (10/10)

    The owner was very helpful

    What could be improved: Some amenities needed upgrading but for what there was the price was good

  • Summer in winter in Marrakesh 🙂 – Vanja from Croatia – 8 February 2024 (8/10)

    The location of the apartment is excellent. There is very good Wi-Fi and Netflix in the apartment. The host welcomed us and was available during the entire stay.

    What could be improved: The apartment is spacious and well equipped, but it could be cleaned a little better.

  • Exceptional – Sayem from United Kingdom – 25 January 2024 (10/10)

    Good location. Highly recommended

  • Beautiful apartment and amazing host – Yamina from Australia – 28 December 2023 (10/10)

    The host was very friendly and kind

  • Good apartment in a great location! – Amanda from United States – 12 October 2023 (7/10)

    The location was fantastic. The host was very responsive, friendly, and kind.

    What could be improved: I should preface this slight criticism by saying that this property is rather on par for properties in Morocco. Hosts typically go with minimal preparation: mostly clean but not meticulously, 1.5 rolls of TP for a family staying four nights, kitchen is minimally stocked for very basic cooking, etc..
