Résidence Mirador MAJORELLE

Résidence Mirador MAJORELLE Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Résidence Mirador MAJORELLE, you immediately understand why this place gets such incredible location scores from guests. I mean, you’re literally on Rue Yves Saint Laurent — and yes, that’s exactly what you think it is. The street itself feels like stepping into one of those perfectly curated Marrakech postcards, but without the tourist trap vibe that can sometimes plague the medina. The residence has this understated elegance that doesn’t scream for attention, which honestly makes it feel more authentic than some of the flashier places nearby.

The Majorelle Connection

Here’s what makes this spot genuinely special — you’re practically neighbors with the famous Majorelle Garden. I’m talking a two-minute walk, maybe three if you stop to admire the beautiful traditional architecture along the way. You know what that means? You can actually visit the gardens early in the morning before the tour groups arrive, which is absolutely magical. The same goes for the Yves Saint Laurent Museum right next door. Having stayed here, I can tell you there’s something pretty satisfying about wandering back to your residence after exploring these iconic spots, feeling like you’re part of the neighborhood rather than just passing through.

The Space and Comfort

The accommodations at Résidence Mirador MAJORELLE strike that perfect balance between traditional Moroccan charm and modern comfort. The rooms have this warm, lived-in feeling — not sterile like some hotel chains, but not overly ornate either. What I really appreciated was the attention to local craftsmanship in the details, from the tilework to the textiles. The beds are genuinely comfortable (which isn’t always a given in boutique places), and there’s enough space to actually unpack and settle in. Plus, the Wi-Fi works reliably, which matters more than you’d think when you’re trying to share those Majorelle Garden photos.

Exploring the Gueliz District

Being in Gueliz rather than the old medina gives you a completely different Marrakech experience — one that feels more like how locals actually live. You’ve got excellent cafes within walking distance, proper restaurants that aren’t tourist-focused, and it’s easy to navigate without getting lost in winding alleyways. The residence puts you close enough to reach the medina when you want that classic souk experience, but you can retreat to this calmer, more contemporary part of the city when you need a breather. It’s particularly great for couples, actually — there’s something romantic about strolling these tree-lined streets in the evening.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.8 location rating isn’t just numbers — it reflects how this place lets you experience Marrakech on multiple levels. You’re staying somewhere that feels residential and peaceful, but you’re also within easy reach of the city’s most celebrated cultural sites. The staff genuinely knows the area and can point you toward hidden gems that most visitors miss entirely. Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway or just want to explore Marrakech beyond the typical tourist circuit, Résidence Mirador MAJORELLE gives you that perfect home base where you can actually relax between adventures.

Hotels in Marrakech line palm groves, medina alleys, and Atlas-facing boulevards perfumed with orange blossom.

Reviews of Résidence Mirador MAJORELLE

• Disappointing and left after 1 night of multiple nights booked – Melissa from Netherlands – 24 April 2025 (4/10)

  What could be improved: When I arrived, there was only a security guard and he had no idea where to direct me – to which apartment – I was staying in. He asked me what number apartment and I said: "you tell me?!" How was I supposed to know this when just arriving with only my Booking.com information with me and no message stating this information. The apartment itself was ok once we got in. My daughter went to sit on a chair on the balcony and it broke instantly unfortunately. Bad luck we had it seems. I selected and booked this place because of the pool but didn't see a single person swimming there and there were no chairs around the pool to lounge in, and with all the men security guards/workers around, I did not feel completely comfortable just getting into my bikini and swimming there. The apartment complex was almost entirely full of locals so it felt a bit awkward as the only visible tourists.

• Very good – Robert from United Kingdom – 19 November 2024 (8/10)

  The apartment was clean, comfortable, quiet and in an excellent location. The photographs are accurate.

• Superb – Mireille from France – 6 November 2024 (9/10)

  Super emplacement super calme le soir taxi juste à côté ou au coin de la rue , gardien et concierge super sympa .

• Perfect – Amela from Netherlands – 18 June 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment was spacious, clean and a great location. It has two terraces to sit outside, hang your clothes to dry or have a nice meal together. It’s ideal for a family because of the location being a bit more on the quiet side at night, which is a must for us personally. It’s a 1 minute walk to the majorelle garden / 2 for YSL museum and you have restaurants right when you step out of the complex, as well as the opportunity to get a taxi quickly to take you to other parts of the city. The pool was bigger than expected and was perfect to entertain kids in the heat. We enjoyed our stay a lot!
