I am bamboozled that Phil didn’t mention the scores of “ladies of the night” that lurk around the downstairs bar area of Monte Cristo! I remember my thought pattern when a bunch of us went in here last December - “Wow, there’s lots of leggy women in this bar, hmmm they all seem to be flirting quite alot with the 50 something German tourists. Hmm, champagne cocktails seem to be the beverage of choice in this club…. Ahhhhhh… i see what’s happening here…..”
Anyway, it’s not all smut and sleaze in the Monte Cristo. Drinks are cheap and the three floors are really varied and fun. The roof terrace is awesome and is a great place to go and chill when you are tired from dancing on level 2. Oh, they also do live music during the week (a blend of traditional Moroccan with some cheese rock as you move later into the evening).
Highly recommended fun times.

The best nightclub in Marrakesh? I’d say so. Somewhat difficult to find (a place to go out drinking…) but the Montecristo hit the spot.
Downstairs: posh restaurant (lots of suits!), plus cool bar with a number of working girls dancing on the bar, and a great covers band.
Upstairs: nightclub with banging music and super-expensive orange juice (like 5 pounds!!)
The roof: magical terrace with traditional (lute?) music being strummed softly, cushions, cocktails and shisha under the stars until the sun comes up.
One of my all-time best nights out.
