Stars Hotel & Spa

Stars Hotel & Spa Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Stars Hotel & Spa in Guéliz, you immediately get that feeling of discovering something special tucked away in Marrakech‘s modern district. The building sits at the corner of rue Sebou and Rue Ouadi Naffis — honestly, it’s one of those spots where you feel like you’re in the heart of things without all the tourist chaos. I mean, Guéliz has this wonderful energy where locals actually live and work, and this hotel captures that authentic vibe perfectly. The entrance has a welcoming warmth that makes you forget about the bustling streets outside.

Location & Neighborhood

You know what really struck me about staying here? The location is absolutely brilliant for couples — and I can see why guests rate it a solid 9.0. Guéliz is where Marrakech shows its contemporary side, with tree-lined boulevards, cafés where locals sip their morning coffee, and shops that aren’t just targeting tourists. You’re actually close enough to walk to the medina when you want that traditional experience, but far enough away to retreat to a quieter, more residential atmosphere. The neighborhood comes alive in the evenings with restaurants and bars that feel genuinely Moroccan rather than put on for show.

The Hotel Experience

Stars Hotel & Spa has this unpretentious charm that I really appreciated — it’s not trying to be something it’s not, but it delivers exactly what you need. The spa element isn’t just a fancy add-on; it actually feels integrated into the whole experience of the place. Staff members seem to genuinely care about making your stay comfortable, and there’s this relaxed professionalism that you don’t always find. The common areas have a nice flow to them, and you’ll often find other guests chatting over mint tea or planning their day’s adventures.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast setup here is pretty solid — they offer both continental and buffet options, which gives you flexibility depending on your mood or schedule. What I liked was the mix of Moroccan touches alongside more familiar options, so you can ease into the local flavors or dive right in. The dining area has good natural light, and honestly, it’s a pleasant way to start your morning before heading out to explore. You’ll find fresh bread, local honey, and decent coffee — nothing revolutionary, but everything done well.

Why Guests Love It

With an 8.6 rating, Stars Hotel & Spa clearly hits the sweet spot for travelers who want comfort without pretension. It’s the kind of place where you feel settled rather than impressed — and sometimes that’s exactly what you need when you’re exploring a city as intense as Marrakech. The combination of that excellent location in Guéliz, the genuine hospitality, and the spa facilities creates this perfect base for both adventure and relaxation. Couples especially seem to love how it gives them a romantic retreat that still feels connected to real Marrakech life.

Savvy travelers reserve a hotel in Marrakech before autumn fashion pop-ups transform riads into runway salons.

Reviews of Stars Hotel & Spa

• Exceptional – Sven from Brazil – 25 June 2025 (10/10)

  What could be improved: Great location, nice rooms and very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommendable! Will come back

• Fantastic – Sharaf from France – 23 June 2025 (10/10)

  I liked the warm welcome from the very beginning, everything was crystal clear regarding the differents services. The reception was 24/7 friendly and keen to assist for anything I needed. The breakfast was very well cooked, tasty and diverse. The restaurant serves both traditional moroccan as well as other cuisines, and I didn't even need to move for another restaurant since everything was perfect there. The SPA, massage and hammam staff was really convenient and the services are given by highly ranked professionals. The cleaning staff was perfect too! They also have a car parking service that helps you find a good spot which is quite an effort in Marrakesh, so this service is a big bonus!
  
  I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back!

  The breakfast was quite good, the staff were always available to help and very sympathetic. The hotel also has a spa facility and the rooms are large. We checked in at 1 am and had no problems doing so. Easy recommendation if your staying in Marrakesh. The lobby and the restaurant are also very nice with live traditional music throughout the day.
