​​Morocco 9-Day Hotel Journey: A Grand Tour Beyond the Ordinary!​​ 🌍✨

We opted for an ​​extended 9-day Morocco loop​​ (vs the classic 7-day route), adding ​​Tetouan & Rabat​​—the coastal gems! North Africa’s seas are ​​wilder and more expansive​​ than Europe’s, and Rabat (the capital) has a ​​fantastic vibe​​. ​​🏨 Night-by-Night Hotel Reviews​​ ​​D1: Marrakech​​ 📍 ​​Mövenpick Hotel Mansour Eddahbi​​ ​​Role​​: Transit stop. ​​Pros​​: Great value, ​​huge property​​ with local flair. ​​Cons​​: Room cleanliness could improve. ​​Tip​​: Marrakech has ​​endless hotel options​​—explore! ​​D2: Ouarzazate​​ 📍 ​​Kasbah Tamsna​​ ​​Vibe​​: Desert castle with a ​​starry-night balcony​​. ​​Highlight​​: Waking up to ​​Atlas Mountain views​​. ​​D3: Sahara Desert​​ 📍 ​​Imperial Glory Lodges​​ ​​Perk​​: One of the few ​​air-conditioned camps​​ (but still ​​freezing at night​​!). ​​Included​​: Breakfast & dinner (think ​​breads, tagines​​). ​​Magic​​: ​​Bonfire + Berber music​​ under the stars. ​​D4: Fes​​ 📍 ​​Palais de Fès Suites & Spa​​ ​​Type​​: ​​Riad​​ (traditional Moroccan house). ​​Wow factor​​: Breakfast terrace ​​overlooking the ancient Medina​​. ​​D5: Chefchaouen​​ 📍 ​​Dar Jasmine​​ ​​Location​​: ​​Hillside perch​​ with blue-town vistas from the balcony. ​​Style​​: Cozy B&B vibes (not luxury). ​​D6: Tetouan​​ 📍 ​​Banyan Tree Tamouda Bay​​ ​​Why we detoured​​: Just for this ​​resort​​! ​​Room​​: ​​200-300㎡ villas​​ (all units!). ​​Note​​: Bathrooms meh, but ​​breakfast spread = epic​​. ​​D7: Casablanca​​ 📍 ​​Casablanca Marriott Hotel​​ ​​Solid choice​​: Predictable comfort (many alternatives here). ​​D8: Marrakech (Again!)​​ 📍 ​​Riad BE Marrakech​​ ​​Booked via agency​​ (needs ​​6-month lead time​​). ​​Reality​​: ​​Freezing rooms​​, average cleanliness—​​not a standout​​. ​​Bonus Visit​​: ​​Royal Mansour​​ ​​Not a stay​​, but ​​tour-worthy​​! Pure ​​royal opulence​​. ​​📌 Key Takeaways​​ ​​Coastal detour (Tetouan/Rabat) = Worth it!​​ ​​Desert nights are COLD​​—pack thermals! ​​Book riads WAY ahead​​—they sell out fast. ​​Banyan Tree’s villa life = Unmatched space​​. ​​#MoroccoTravel #LuxuryOnABudget #DesertNights #RiadLife #SaharaStars​
