Guest Reviews

• Jeffery (4/5): - Checked into my room early, which was great but the room had a horrible smell. My husband and I cleaned the room again with products we bought from the store And couldn't get rid of the horrible smell mention it to the front desk and they said they would see what they could do which was nothing
• Sufyan (10/5): - Good
• Quentin (10/5): Excellent - L'hôtel est propre et les personnels sent sympas. Le petit dejeuner complet. Les restaurants et les magasins sent a proximite. Par contre, alentours de L'hôtel est sale.
• Jessica (8/5): - Would definitely stay again
• Gentiane (8/5): - Hôtel simple et correct pour le prix. Petit déjeuner et personnel correcte. Rapport qualité-prix intéressant. Le quartier est en travaux et un peu sale mais l'hôtel se situe à proximité des gares et du tramway ce qui est pratique.
• Yavuz Selim (10/5): Keyifli - Otel gayet temiz ve odalar her gün temizleniyor. Otelin konumu çok güzel çarşının içindesiniz. Personellerin hepsi cana yakın.
• silvana (10/5): Perfeito! - Adorei minha estadia. Tudo perfeito: cafe da manha, limpeza, cama confortavel, pessoal da recepcao, do cafe.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Closed to CTM bus station - Over all. It's nice hotel. The location is good, very closed to CTM bus station and Local markets. Breakfast was good enough bread, pastry, olives, boiled egg, tea, coffee. However I saw left over breads were reused for another guests. I don't want to waste foods. But I didn't want to see that, unacceptable
• ezequiel (10/5): Surpreendeu positivamente - Me surpreendeu positivamente. Quarto otimo e cafe da manhã excelente. A vizinhança assustou no primeiro momento mas foi otimo e era perto de diversas opções. Gostei
• lionel (10/5): Great location, great staff. - Great location, great staff, delicious breakfast included, and very reasonable rates.
• Tahir (10/5): Good quality hotel - The staf is friendly and good
• Alix (4/5): - The listed photos are lovely, but the hotel was under renovations when we arrived. It took us 2 days to realize that the renovations were happening and that the hotel was not just in disrepair. We experienced a language barrier which is to be expected when traveling internationally. The staff did not speak English but my husband speaks French so this is also something to keep in consideration. By the end of our trip we were able to forgive a majority of the issues we experienced. I am rating this hotel low because our first room was dirty, the AC did not work, and the only English TV station was all static. The second room was better but the TV did not work and the bathroom was not satisfactory. It is a wet room with a hose and a drain in the center. They have every opportunity to scrub and hose down the walls. I wound up cleaning the bathroom myself because even after we asked it to be cleaned the walls were still dirty. The bathroom drain would occasionally smell like sewage.
• simob921 (2/5): Stay away from this hotel - 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎Never and no way even if you need a hitel don't go there. Noisy no idea about customer service, stay a way from breakfast you end whit something bad............. 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
• Andre (6/5): - Great room but awful smell in bathroom very strong stench.
• Barnabas (10/5): - Had a really nice time and would recommend for anyone.
• Dieter (8/5): - Alles akzeptabel, gut zentrale Lage, im städtischen Leben, nicht ruhig als Konsequenz. Beurteilung auf meinem realistischen Anspruchsniveau. Preis Frühstück günstig.
• Ronald (10/5): - Great service… amazing breakfast
• Nicholas (8/5): - Nothing spectacular but perfectly acceptable for what it promises and what you pay for. Really friendly staff at breakfast.
• Nafissatou (10/5): Welcoming. - Exceptional. Worth every pennie
• Verified traveler (10/5): Je conseille les gens de réserver dans cet hôtel - Notre séjour à été franchement le TOP dans cet hôtel maamoura. Propre, confortable, le petit déjeuner très gourmand. Je le note 20/10....
• Teresita Vilma (8/5): - Unique
• Teresita Vilma (8/5): - Property are under renovation, it was nice
• Teresita Vilma J (10/5): - Nice place to stay 👍
• Juan (8/5): - It was an all around good experience. They lived up to the standard minus one thing. In the list of things available at this hotel it said laundry. The front desk said yes you can do laundry but outside. Meaning go find a business to do it in outside the hotel. No biggie, I still enjoyed my stay.
• Dorian (8/5): - Property is going through some upgrades. Not a bad place to stay for the price. The breakfast is very basic but not bad. I did see ants crawling on a table one morning which turned me off from eating there again.
• Luis Alberto (10/5): - Very nice hotel. I recommend it. I loved it.
• Roger (4/5): - This property appears to be a situation where new owners come in and "fix up" the existing building. Yet, in this case, they have applied cheap finishing in almost every aspect of the building. The floors are cheap tile; the walls are cheap gypsum board with paint. The shower stalls are hastily caulked, and the towel rack protrudes into the shower entrance (so you can bump you head on it as you exit the shower). I had to catch an early morning flight, and I specifically asked if someone would be at reception in the early morning. I was assured there would be someone there. When I went down at 5am, the employee was sleeping on the couch, which is fine, but he seemed really put out that he had to call me a taxi. For this price, there are much better places to stay in this area.
• Salim (8/5): - Simple et efficace
• Anne-Marie (10/5): Bon sejour - Tres bon sejour. Personnel tres accueillant. Nous recommandons cet hotel.
• Sylvie (6/5): - Personnel serviable, mais hôtel poussiereux et un peu bruyant a cause de travaux.
• BRIGITTE (6/5): - Eenvoudig hotel maar nette kamer. Centraal gelegen, dichtbij haven en het centrum van Casablanca. De buurt geeft geen al te veilige indruk maar er waren geen problemen. Het personeel is vriendelijk. Het hotel heeft authentieke aankleding. Zeker waar voor je geld.
• Daniel (4/5): - Awful smell in room. Very noisy
• Nick (10/5): - My stay was very good.
• kemon (6/5): - Budget hotel so you get what you pay for. Somehow the bed was hard to sleep on. Breakfast was basic. Boiled Eggs bread and butter/jam/cheese. No variety. Tea, coffee and fresh orange juice were provided. There was no tour desk to provide information at all and staff simply told me to look online. Staff were not helpful at all when asked questions and it seemed like you were bothering them. The location isn’t too far from the center but the street itself is sketchy and a good 11-15 minute walk from public transport.
• Vinita (8/5): - The hotel is in a really dirty area of Casablanca. The entrance and particularly the elevator are grungy. However, after getting off on my floor, i was very pleasantly surprised because the place is newly tiled and the rooms are quite spacious and well appointed (despite the garish gold curtains and comforters). I had a couple of problems - the fridge wasn’t working and no one did a thing about it. Also, the water in the shower was tepid and I froze coming out. The towels are pretty yucky too. But the rooms themselves are quite nice and the added breakfast is a real bonus.
• Bonnin (4/5): Deception - Accueil agréable, souriant et efficace. Hélas le ménage laisse beaucoup à désirer, notamment la salle de bain! C'est dommage, peut-être un problème de personnel? Cet hôtel était classé "un peu chic"dans le guide du Routard où il n'a plus vraiment sa place.
• Eleanor (8/5): - Convenient
• Dejan (10/5): - We spent only one night here, but the experience was quite good: accommodating staff, good breakfast, convenient location.
• Takahiro (10/5): - 中央市場近く 大通りから入り込んだ道のため夜は人通りもなく街灯もない クーラーは使用でき、冷蔵庫もあった。 タオルっと石鹸はあるがシャンプーはなし。 朝食はパンと茹で卵など。 チェックアウト時に宿泊税を支払う。
• Jane (8/5): - The hotel was good for us as it was walking distance to tourist sights like the mosque and souk. Breakfast was good and staff were helpful. Our room was a good size. Our king bed was very really firm. Our only issue was that the bathroom had a step in bath/shower that was built up and was a real challenge to climb into even though I am fit and able. A hand rail would have been helped. This was probably why the bath wasn't clean.
• Bilel (6/5): - Problemi di parcheggio sempre
• Alfred (8/5): - Lovely place, friendly staff, great room, comfy bed, super great value.
• Koumbafing (8/5): - The quality you get For $20-$40/night I don’t think there is anything to complain about. It is on the older side but still nice. Simple breakfast (boiled egg, croissant, Moroccan flat bread, cream cheese and butter. Choice of the, coffee and milk), room are cleaned daily or upon request. Walkable to many touristic sites, plenty of restaurants around ($3-$10/meals). If you are on budget, this is definitely a good spot.
• JOSHUA (8/5): - Laundry service is very expensive. And having to take off my clothes that were stapled on from the laundry service was a bit
  !##y.
• Sergio (8/5): Económico y versátil - Un alojamiento económico que cumple sin grandes alardes. Lo mejor es que no está lejos de la Estación de trenes y de la Plaza de las Naciones Unidas.
• Edith (8/5): - I like that it is traditional Morocco living experience! there are good local restaurants to try local food around it. People are friendly everywhere. Transportation and walk are easy around there. It is centrical area and safety overall. It can be very noisy but sleep there was pleasant! :) Thank you!
• Verified traveler (4/5): - Nicely located but not clean place
• Zahir (10/5): Mu stat octobre 2020 - Impeccable cleanliness professional and very friendly staff. Excellent value for money. I recommend this hotel.
• tick0422 (10/5): Nice service - The room was fine, we felt comfortable to have 1 stay. I forgot my tablet and my earphone at the room and I felt so anxious. But they found that and ship it to our next destination. Communication was smooth and I appreciate d a lot to this hotel.
• 679marekp (6/5): Helpful staff but hotel needs serious work - We stayed here on 2 separate occasions (one night on each time). The staff were very good throughout and particularly when we were checking out and needed to arrange transport to the airport. The breakfast options were limited to eggs and pastries but the coffee and Moroccan tea was very good. The WiFi and Air Con worked well and we were not uncomfortable over our stay. The second room we had at the end of the trip was much larger than the first room. The outlook onto the street was not spectacular but was interesting. What really brings the hotel down in my rating is that it is in desperate need of renovations. The rooms and bathrooms are old and worn. If you can get into the bath to take a shower you wont have any trouble getting onto a camel, and the exhaust fan was very loud. The location was OK, close to the tram, shopping and local eateries. Also there are convenience stores and a bottle-shop very close to the hotel. The cost to stay was included in our tour package so was good value.
• kezzaloveslife (6/5): Needs a revamp - We stayed at this hotel on two separate occasions as part of our tour . Overall the hotel is adequate and the staff are nice however the hotel is in need of a good clean and revamp. Both times we stayed our rooms were of a good size with a 'lounge area' and large bed (the second time we had a balcony). Unfortunately the beds in both rooms we stayed in were rock hard and so we did not get good nights sleep at all. The bathrooms were clean and there was plenty of hot water both times, but the shower is over a bath - which is shorter than the glass wall/door length, and so it is extremely difficult to step into (more like climb) safely into the bath to have a shower. our room came with breakfast which we found adequate, and was the usual fare we were to find of breakfasts offered in Morocco hotels - lots of Breads, pastries, eggs, olives and cheese. It would have been good to be offered fresh fruit and/or cereal but both times of our stays these were not present for breakfast.
• lwelzen (4/5): Bad hygiëne - We stayed here for one night during our trip in Marokko. Unfortunately the room was not cleaned well. A lot of stains and the sheets were not clean. The location was in the center which was fine and the people from the hotel where friendly. The breakfast was disappointed, even though we know the breakfast in Marokko is limited there was not variation at all.
• julesnsteve (4/5): 1st nights accommodation - This place is just OK. Our room was booked as a double got twin. Small and old just ok bathroom. Beware of the deep baths with shower above not friendly for anyone unfit or disabled. Would not recommend I am sure there is much better accommodation in Morocco.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location - convenient to places of interest. Staff was very helpful. Hotel was clean and colorful.
• aguiventures (4/5): Bathroom is Horrible - Really horrible bathroom situation. We stayed in room 202. The bathtub was dirty with cracks, and the sink was clogged from the first time we used it. We had issues with the room door also. And when we asked for the AC remote, no one came up to provide it. We tried calling the reception for help, but didn't get much help. Plus we were tired from a long trip so we had no energy to argue anymore. Room walls are onion thin as well so you can hear everytime someone talked loudly in the other room, or when somone opens to faucet. The neighborhood is okay, there is a convenience store nearby. Nothing touristy, very much for local people.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly and helpful staff. Clean room. Quiet hotel.
• Verified traveler (2/5): - very bad very bad..very bad..very bad.very bad..very bad
• Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel with central location - The heater and air conditioner was too nosiy.
• Reagan (10/5): - Enjoyed my stay. They let me into my room right away even though it was before check in and answered all my questions. The location is close to the bus station, so very convinient. Room was clean and comfortable and I had a big balcony. Breakfast was good.
• Pang (8/5): - Location is very good, ten minute walk to CTM bus station.
• BBtravel123 (2/5): Worst hotel I’ve ever seen!! - I only stayed for 1 night (thank God!). It’s the worst hotel I’ve ever seen. The location could not be worst. It’s in a super sketchy area of Casablanca and I was terrified when I was walking to the hotel with our group. I have nothing good to say about this place. It’s dirty, old, smelly, and noisy. We could hear everything people were saying in the hallway and in the room next to ours. The staff is super unfriendly and they barely speak English. The worst was the bathroom. It was so dirty that we were walking around in flip-flops and none of us had the courage to take a shower — it was way to gross in there. It seriously looked like something from a horror movie. A family-friend planned this entire trip and booked this hotel. I never stay at hotels that are below 4-stars and I don’t know how anyone could be satisfied with this dump.
• donhY8265WQ (10/5): Maamoura Hotel is excellent - We booked a tour of Morocco, and wanted a hotel to stay in before the tour, and on the day after the tour. We chose Maamoura Hotel. We were not disappointed. Our rooms both times were great; the front desk very helpful; the breakfast was unusually good which was included. The staff was top-notch. We recommend this hotel as a great value for the money while in Casablanca.
• gailrL2072UF (8/5): A cozy stay in a real neighborhood - In a busy working section of the city. You get a vibe for the neighborhood. An older hotel, with well used furnishings, but the room was clean and more than adequate and the staff very courteous and helpful. Rachid was so helpful getting me some soup the day I arrived. The 28 hour trip had left me exhausted. He is a big asset to their staff. And the WiFi worked! Transportation in and out of the area clogged up at points, but it's a big city. Petit Taxi's available and cheap. Staff even helped me flag some down when I had appointments. Loved the whole experience. At 75 and travelling alone, when at the Maamoura I did not feel alone.
• Sureen (4/5): - Hotel staff were excellent giving us early check-in and calling the Tour company on behalf of us. Room was also OK but the bathroom was in a terrible shape. The tub had a dirty yellow stain all over the bottom forcing us to wear our beach slippers. The handheld shower holder was broken forcing us to hold it in one hand while trying to shower and apply soap. The tub was so high above the floor making getting in and out quite dangerous. The mirror was so small and stained and there was no space to keep even a single toothbrush. Too bad since the staff was very nice. But I would avoid this hotel.
• Verified traveler (8/5): A nice place to stay - The location was close to the Central Markets, the staff were good, the room was good & had all the expected facilities.
• Verified traveler (6/5): - This is a sturdy, basic hotel. No frills but fine. The night i stayed there— I was on 5 th floor—there was a lot of noise above or beside me. Sounded like someone was bowling just above me or doing construction. The noise was hard to shake especially since I i had to rise at 4 am to go to airport.
• Michael (10/5): - The staff was exceptionally welcoming and helpful. Charming ambiance, nice breakfast, great location out of the bustle yet close to the tramway and the old city market
• PicMorDaisies (6/5): Older hotel but clean and staff very helpful - We found this hotel to be better than we expected based on some of the reviews we had read. Many of which were negative and commented on the sketchy area where the hotel is located. Actually the location is fine. Yes it’s on a dirty street but it's only a few blocks away from the Medina where there are the big fancy hotels like Hyatt and Sheraton. Also it's only a short walk to CTV bus terminal so that worked well for us coming by bus from Essaouira. They didn’t seem to have our reservation when we arrived but when we showed them the email confirmation we had received they did give us a room. I suspect we were upgraded as we were given a very large room with a king bed and a very large sitting area. The room was clean, furnishings looked dated to me but that’s not a big problem. Front desk staff were very helpful, one fellow even took us on a walk to a restaurant a few blocks away.
• EdK_IL (8/5): Clean hotel, nice staff, good location - I found the Maamoura Hotel to be a good welcome place after spending over 20 hours to get to Morocco. While a bit outdated, it was clean and the staff was nice and helpful. The hotel is located close to the medina and Hassan II mosque, so it's well-situated. The only complaint I have, and a minor one at that, is that breakfast for us the next day consisted of only croissants and other bread, yet, walking past about 30 minutes later we say others with hot food. I'm not sure if that was part of a different package they had or what the deal was. I don't mind a continental breakfast, so like I said, it's a minor issue for me, but it would have been good to know, regardless.
• 7daysaweek (6/5): Well Located, Helpful Staff - Stayed two nights and found this hotel a good value and well located. It is close to the central market, lots of shops and restaurants and about 35-40 minute walk to the Hassan II mosque. The hotel has secure car parking which is helpful if you have a car rental. Mobarek was the most helpful of the staffand very kind providing directions, suggestions on what to see and do. The rooms are surprisingly quiet given the hotel is on a busy street. The breakfast was average and did not have enough choice for my liking. The furnishings are dated and the rooms could be better cleaned.
• Paolo_DiLo (6/5): Amazing staff - I loved the politeness and kindness of the staff. They welcomed us in a very friendly way, helping with the luggage and indicating where we could eat. I was only slightly disappointed about the poor cleanness of the toilet. This is a good hotel to spend one or two nights.
• R8231QJpatriciab (10/5): Great - The people that works on the hotel are really nice and they helped us on everything . Rashid and Laçen were more than helpful and nice . We were two woman traveling alone and we’ve felt really safe with the staff of the hotel
• pbolland (6/5): Past is prime - This might have been a great find in its day. It still has surprising charm, but needs updating. Sheets were clean but bedspreads seemed old. Bathrooms are modern, but again a touch out of date. The hotel is well maintained. The front desk staff weren't the most attentive but got the job done.
• oldtraveller63 (8/5): 2 nights as part of a tour - Good hotel, close to downtown, walking distance from downtown if you know how to read a map. My bedroom window faced the main street and I was initially concerned with noise, but slept until 11:30 am without hearing a thing! Front desk was helpful. Several convenience stores in the neighbourhood. Run of the mill Moroccan breakfast.
• colombianfoodie (4/5): Leave your expectations at the door - I was in Casablanca for a night and stayed in this hotel chosen by Intrepid Travel, which was the start of our 9 day Morroco tour. This hotel is probably one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed at, it was dark, dinghy and dirty. My room was a single room with a TV with cable channels that did not work, the bathroom was small, smelly and the shower was not only dirty with scum , it was also broken. Unless you don't have any kind of standards for your hotel stay, then by all means, this is the hotel for you.
• donnies714 (2/5): Not a Good Choice - I cannot recommend this property to anyone. I recently stayed for two nights as part of a group tour package. In short, my room was very dirty. The bathroom had water on the floor, hair in the bathtub, and the glasses at the sink looked as though they hadn't ever been washed (dried toothpaste or something in the bottom of the glasses). My pillowcase was dirty. Even though I turned up the heat as far as possible, the room was still quite chilly. I didn't ask to be moved to another room, as several in our party also complained about the condition of their room. I figured there wasn't going to be a better choice available. The hotel is also located in a somewhat sketchy part of town. The price of the room is cheap - guess you get what you pay for.
• cicook (8/5): Hotel okay location alright.. - I personally didn't think the hotel was too bad. Don't expect too much, it has everything you need and want. The area seemed like it was where they sell all the kitchen wares. Although it seems quite safe, Book a transfer from the airport.
