The Suite Novotel Marrakech is an all-suites business hotel located in the Hivernage, not far from the convention center. The 112 rooms have such conveniences as microwaves, mini-fridges, plenty of work space, and free Wi-Fi but lack the Moroccan flourishes found in other Marrakech properties. There are also an outdoor pool, a bar, and a tiny fitness center with cardio machines (but no weights), and a deli-style shop. Those looking for a hotel with a full restaurant may want to check out the nearby Diwane Hotel, which also has a more fully equipped fitness facility.

Scene
Generic but colorful all-suite hotel popular with business travelers
From the outside, the terra-cotta colored Suite Novotel looks as if it could be part of a business park, and its unremarkable exteriors are reflected in colorful but generic, interiors. The lobby is a gray-and-beige space with large pillars and low seats in hues of orange, green, red, and purple clustered around small round tables. The simple but not unpleasant decor continues in the dark Comptoir Nomade bar, which offers brighter patio seating, and the even darker hallways. The all-suites hotel is aimed toward business travelers and has a cookie-cutter feel that makes it less than ideal for leisure travelers seeking a more quintessentially Moroccan hotel.
Location
Located in the Hivernage, in the new town, a short drive to the convention center and airport
The hotel is located in Hivernage, an area with lots of large, modern hotels. It's a five-minute drive to the convention center, a 20-minute walk to the medina, and a 10-minute walk to the train station. Menara International Airport is about a 15-minute drive away.
Rooms
Contemporary but bland suites with no local flair
The hotel has 112 Suites, all of which come with one double bed and two singles. Decor is more Jetsons than quintessentially Moroccan, with space-age tables and lavender decor in a modern, loft-style layout. All rooms have free Wi-Fi, mini-fridges, microwaves, and coffeemakers. Bathrooms are divided into two rooms: one with a toilet and sink and the other with a separate walk-in shower and a tub along with another sink.
Features
Small fitness center and pool, small bar
The small fitness center has a few cardio machines and a flat-screen TV, but does not have weights. There's a small mushroom-shaped courtyard pool, which is flanked by lounge chairs with parasols. The small Comptoir Nomade Bar opens early and closes late and offers a wide selection of drinks. The Boutique Gourmande sells deli items, along with ready-to-eat meals that can be reheated in rooms, but it's a far cry from a full restaurant. Strong, reliable Wi-Fi is free in rooms and common areas, and there's an underground parking lot with limited spaces.
