Snob Club

Bar & Lounge Guéliz $$ By Noa Aviv
Published Jun 9, 2026

Snob Club works the way a lot of Guéliz rooms do: dinner that slides into drinks, a DJ that arrives once the plates clear, and a shisha terrace that keeps a table occupied until the small hours.

The address is Residence Ibn Hafsia on Place 16 Novembre, one of the central Guéliz squares where Marrakech keeps most of its licensed bars. Alcohol here lives in the modern districts rather than the medina, and Snob Club leans into that reality as a combined restaurant, bar and lounge rather than a single-purpose pub. RestaurantGuru and Menulist both list it as a Guéliz bar-restaurant with a view over the quarter and a kitchen that runs into the night.

The room reads contemporary, with a terrace that takes the overflow once the dining tables turn into drinking tables. Shisha is part of the offer here, and the venue's own social feed leans on the same trio every week: live DJ sets, occasional live music and the shisha service that anchors the late crowd (Snob Club, Facebook). It is a lounge atmosphere more than a dance floor, the sort of place a group settles into for a few hours rather than passes through.

For drinks, a cold Casablanca lager is the local default and lands in the usual Guéliz range, roughly 50 to 80 MAD. The cocktail list covers the standards, so a gin and tonic or a mojito is the steadier order than anything elaborate. The kitchen runs international with Moroccan touches, and a mezze spread or grilled mains hold up well against a long evening; eating before the DJ starts is the way to use the room.

Place 16 Novembre is walkable from most Guéliz hotels and a short petit-taxi from Hivernage, which makes Snob Club an easy first or last stop on a night that moves around the quarter. Weekends fill later and louder; midweek is calmer and better for conversation and shisha without a wall of sound.

The shisha is more than a sideline here, and it shapes the pace of a night. Tables tend to settle in for the long haul, ordering in rounds rather than rushing, which gives the room a lounge rhythm even when the DJ pushes the volume up. The square outside is one of the busier corners of Guéliz after dark, so arriving on foot is easy and leaving late is no trouble for a taxi. Value sits in the mid range: not the cheapest beer in the quarter, but a fair price for a seat that comes with music, a terrace and a kitchen that stays open. Groups get the most from it, since the format rewards a table that plans to stay rather than one passing through. Solo visitors are better served at the bar than at a terrace table built for a crowd.

Best time to go is after about nine, once the DJ has taken over from the dinner service and the terrace fills. Snob Club suits groups who want food, drinks and shisha under one roof, couples after a relaxed late table, and anyone who would rather a Guéliz lounge than a hard-edged club. For a livelier follow-on, Theatro runs late nearby; for a calmer start, the rooftop at Kechmara or cocktails at Baromètre set the evening up.
