The compromise position between the densely packed medina and the wide-open, suburban Palmeraïe is the Hivernage district; it’s less crowded than the old town, but closer to the center of it all than the sprawling out-of-town resorts. And there are a few very worthy hotel options in the Hivernage, among them the Sofitel Marrakech Lounge & Spa.
You could make a case that if any international chain can get to the essence of Morocco, it would be a French one. If it’s boutique (or riad) intimacy you’re after, this might not be the place — with just this side of 350 rooms and suites, the Sofitel Marrakech Lounge & Spa is not a small hotel. But it’s a five-floor complex, rather than a tower, which means a more human scale, and the pure physical luxuries of the place go a long way towards making any guest feel at times like pretty much the only guest.
Chief among them is the spa, a major piece of the Imperial puzzle, and an area where the Sofitel has an advantage over most of the in-town competition. Add a healthy dose of sophisticated Paris-via-Morocco modern interior design and you’ve got a stylish luxury hotel that’s solid in all areas.

What I liked:
location
What the hotel could do better:
Service was close to none. It felt like a self-service arrangement not a 5-star hotel everywhere from reception, to restaurant (including buffet breakfast with flies), to particularly concierge. Hard to believe it was Sofitel (Rabat and Casa were much better)

What I liked:
great location - if not staying in the medina this is the closest hotel. public spaces like pool and lobby are very nice and good for lounging and relaxing. Great service.
What the hotel could do better:
Had a wonderful stay. Only thing I noticed was rooms were a little faded.
