Marrakech has enjoyed tremendous popularity during recent years. The city is a multi-cultural one as it contains a blend of Europeans coming from France, England and Switzerland. The popularity of the city as a destination has been greatly helped by its proximity with places of interest such as the valley of the Ourika River located in the Atlas Mountains or the Sahara desert. The fact that Marrakech enjoys good transportation facilities has also helped Marrakech development. Another contributing factor to the popularity of Marrakech is the promotions that are made by tour operators. Indeed it is now very common to find out of this world offers for Marrakech. One French article that I have recently come across on this subject is ‘hotels Marrakech’ and should be worth reading. See also: Voyage - Hotels –Espagne and Voyage - Loisirs - Voiture luxe
