Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a mix of pros and cons, such as a terrible infestation of bed bugs in the rooms but overall serviceable accommodations decorated in a Moorish style. The service is friendly and helpful, though change for larger bills may be an issue. The location is convenient, close to the medina and the new town but can be noisy. Dining options are varied but heavy on sweets and bread. The facilities are decent but could use improvement in certain areas.
Staying at this hotel felt like being in a real Moroccan house. The rooms are painted in Moroccan style, which was a cool touch, but they were a bit cold. Having easy access to the elevator was convenient, although the layout around the lobby creates a cavernous atmosphere with loud hallway noise, especially from families.
The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms with multi-language TV, but being in the basement level can lead to noise from the pool. The service is friendly and helpful, although the management may come off as aloof at times. The location is excellent, near convenient shops and restaurants in Gueliz. The dining experience is pleasant but could have more varied options. Overall, a good value for money choice.
The hotel had beautifully decorated rooms in oriental style, though the AC was moody at times. The small balcony on the top floor was great for people-watching. The cleanliness was acceptable, making the stay perfectly fine, but the functionality of the AC could be improved.
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The room was beautifully fresh and bright, exuding a charming traditional Moroccan ambience. The bed with its crisp, clean white sheets was incredibly inviting. The service, particularly from the reception staff, was warm and friendly, making me feel welcome. The location, although a bit far from the Medina, was convenient for exploring the new Marrakech area by taxi. The dining experience was good, but there were some minor issues with breakfast. Overall, a cozy and pleasant stay.
