Review of Jardin Menara

More an olive grove than a park, this is the most popular of Marrakech's gardens for both picnicking locals and camera-wielding tourists who visit for the picture-postcard pool with green-tiled pavilion, or minzah, dwarfed by the High Atlas mountains in the background. It's stunning during the clear, snowcapped winter months. Aside from its photogenic qualities, however, the Menara is a peaceful place to escape the summer heat and the city's hustle and bustle. This is a stop on the "Monumental" circuit on the Marrakech City Sightseeing bus.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
