Workation in Marrakesh: the essentials
The Almoravids founded Marrakesh around 1070, and the red walls built half a century later gave it the nickname Red City. Few cities in North Africa draw so many visitors, and the medina around Jemaa el-Fna can be wearing if you live in the thick of it. Many long-stayers settle in Gueliz, the district laid out under the French, where you will find cafés and coworking spaces. The High Atlas is close for weekends, Marrakesh Menara airport is about 6 km from the centre, and trains run north to Casablanca. Inland summers are fiercely hot, and the 2023 earthquake damaged parts of the medina.
Accommodation & Coliving
OpenStreetMap lists one coworking space within 10 km of Marrakesh, The Spot. Supply is thin, with a day pass likely around 10 EUR. At 25 Mbit/s and roughly 900 EUR monthly living costs, cafés with wifi or a hotel lobby serve as backup options.
Spaces come from OpenStreetMap (10 km radius); prices are AI estimates for typical offers in town – please check with the provider before booking. As of September 2026.
