Car rental in Hivernage

A handover at the hotel entrance

Hivernage is home to a good share of Marrakech's upscale hotels and residences, west of the ramparts and just south of Guéliz. Most establishments have a drop-off bay or a car park. Give the name of your hotel in the form: we agree the exact spot with you, at reception or in front of the gate. If the hotel asks vehicles to wait in a specific spot, we go there directly and let you know when we arrive.

Driving in an airy district

The streets of Hivernage are wide and tree-lined, and traffic stays smoother than at the gates of the Medina. Avenue Mohammed VI runs south towards Agdal, and the airport is only about 15 to 20 minutes away. In the evening, traffic thickens around the restaurants and nightlife spots: allow some margin if you have a table booked. Hotel valets and drop-off bays are not parking spaces, even for five minutes.

Prestige cars and end-of-day outings

This is often where people book a more distinguished model for a dinner, a wedding or a weekend. The luxury cars range offers, for example, the BMW Série 4 Cabriolet, pleasant on mild spring evenings. For an event, also look at the imperial cars. On the other hand, avoid driving with the roof down in the hot hours of July and August, when the thermometer often tops 40 °C.

The Agafay stone desert is about 45 minutes to 1 hour away: a sunset there, then back to town for dinner. Our article Agafay by car details the paved road and the last stretch of track leading to some camps.
