Where to take a hammam in Marrakech, if you only take one
Marrakech's hammams run from neighbourhood bathhouses with a bucket and a glove to palace spas with prices to match. Most visitors have two or three days and one good hammam to fit in.
We chose four: two inside the medina walls, one in Guéliz for the new town, and one resort spa for the day you want to leave the noise behind. No two are within 2 km of each other.
