Similar to your experience, my wife and I didn't really find Marrakech having any wow factor to return back to. All of the souks are Chinese made trinkets, and carpets are way over priced. Feels like the city is built to extract as much as they can from the transient tourists.

History is great, but the biggest issue is the dichotomy of poverty right outside of these opulent hotels. There is just something wrong with this city at the present state, of financial imbalance.

We stayed at the Mandarin Oriental (Mandarin Pool Villa) and although not perfect, the place was relaxing and had excellent in house restaurants with friendly/attentive staff. Based on the photos you have provided, I think if we ever go back, it would be the MO again or RM.
