Hotel berhampiran Synagogue Joseph Bitton, Marrakech

We stayed at hotel chems from the 31st of December for six consecutive days for the new year. This was my second time in Marrakech but my mum's first time. The location is second to none within a few minutes walk to the square and also many other local attractions. On arrival we were told that we needed to check in from 3:00 p.m. we'd got there early but were able to drop off our bags and then go out exploring. The hotel itself is a little outdated, however it is very clean. Staff are very good, welcoming and attentive, room sizes good and price good. Bedrooms made up everyday, towels changed, cleaned throughout. Pool towels available for free at pool. We stopped between December and January, that is a very good size pool approximately 25 m. However it is very cold but still accessible plenty of seating areas for drinks and snacks. There are plenty of sun lounges around the poolside as well as in the grass area. Breakfast is served daily which is included within the cost and there was ample choice a selection of eggs, Cereals, yogurts a little fruit, many pastries, etc. The hotel also has a snack bar and does offer evening meals. We did not take any evening meals here. We did have snacks during the day. Things like salads, pizzas, burgers, etc. The food was good. As the hotel was very close to the local area, we were able to walk although it was close to a taxi rank. If you should need this. Within 1 minute walk to Koutobia mosque, then about 5 mins to jem so fnaa square, Cyber park short walk ( nice to visit) near royal mansour Marrakech, Around 40 mins walk is the beautiful menara :) There is also complex artisan is about 10 minutes walk maximum full of things to buy As you come out of the hotel grounds, if you do a left you will find a park on the left hand side ( Koutobia). You can walk straight through this to the main road to take a shorter route to places. There is plenty of opportunities for walking and running. It is very safe to run alone. When we were there the sunrose at about 8:00 to 8:30 a.m. and the mornings were cool. During the daytime, you can expect temperatures of around 18° c in December and January plenty warm enough if you are from England. We had a walking tour that I arranged before we went through TripAdvisor. It was very good. We also booked the waterfalls trip. This was okay. I also took a hot air balloon trip which was amazing. All of these were booked online instead of at the hotel. There was no particular reason not to book at the hotel. I just didn't realise that there was somebody on site to do this before travelling. The reception is manned 24 hours, 7 days a week. On New year's Eve, we was welcomed with a show and dinner from 7:30 p.m. full entertainment and several courses for a meal and drinks. This was all inclusive even though we was on a bed and breakfast basis. We had no idea that this was going to happen. It was a lovely surprise. The entertainment was fun. Most of the ho

When going back to my room the panel where you wave your key card had been tampered with as had another room a few doors down I reported this to the reception the man who came up told me it was my fault as I had closed the door to hard (the doors are self closing) I am a single woman staying in the room by myself to say I didn’t feel safe is an understatement! I went down to reception to further voice my concern when the same man came up with the most fanciful story advising he had done as much as he could he came running after I reported a white man trying to break into my room (where this part of the story came from I have no idea and why he felt the need to lie is beyond me) I asked to speak with a Manager they refused to get anyone for me, the TUI rep was unavailable, apparently no one was available and if I wanted to speak with anyone I would have to wait till the morning, the fact that I am in a foreign country unsure of my safety was a never mind, in fact they couldn’t careless, there was one young man Ayaub I will say that was amazing he did as. Much as he could to calm my fears, this however did not help with a very uncomfortable nights sleep, the next morning I spok with a assistant general manager who basically said that they know there is an issue with key panels and the hotel is 100% safe (this a guarantee that no one can make) but again basically brushed me off, I also sadly have to say that no one from TUI has bothered to come and find me (even though I had requested this on many occasions) even though this is a TUI blue hotel and they boast when you first arrive that they have an onsite team there for anything! Yeah right, but then this is TUI I don’t know why I am surprised! Going home can’t come quick enough for me now, I will never come to this hotel again and urge others that want to feel safe on their holidays not to either as for TUI well lets just say I will be cancelling my holiday to Sri Lanka in February with them as they once again have proven themselves to be useless.

Excellent hotel. Beautiful lush green oasis with so many trees, plants and birds. Love the 60s architecture and interior design and elegant pastel pink and green colours carried across the whole hotel. Pool really nice and very relaxing with great service. Ate in the gastronomique restaurant food was good and service excellent. Staff very warm and friendly.

Great location. But the hotel is not 5 star, the front lobby was fancy but the rest is not well maintained with my room having a broken door handle to the bathroom and the balcony. The telephones didn't work either. The shower water pressure came and went, and the temperature was going hot and cold. The statement of three restaurants is bold with only one being in operation when I was there, one was closed and the last didn't exist. I bought lunch from the restaurant one day and it cost £30!! for lamb skewers, French fries and chocolate mouse, which were poor quality and very disappointing.

Hotel Le Caspien exceeded my expectations again! The rooms were clean and spacious, and the central location was perfect for exploring. Special thanks to Younes at reception for his exceptional service and attention to detail. I highly recommend this hotel!

What a gem of a property in the Accor catalog of accommodation and hospitality! I am a senior, solo, single traveler, and Ibis rooms are just fine with me! The Wi-Fi could be a little bit better, but that's the problem with the vendor and the Internet service Provider, not the Ibis. Although this Ibis would be within their rights to demand better service- in 2023, with 100+ rooms. I came directly from an Ibis in Lisbon, which had fewer items for breakfast, and no Chef for evening dinner! The breakfast is a wonderful mix of Moroccan, Arabic, French foods, but also American/English. Scrambled eggs are made without dairy, and I brought my own gluten-free bread from Carrefour to be sure. While they do have a container of Honey, I bring my own, as I don't like touching containers and spoons touched by other customers... another customer absconded with my honey yesterday, and one of the wait staff had to retrieve it! Three languages are spoken here: Moroccan, Arabic, French, and plenty of English. Any word that is too specific can be translated on any of the web translation sources. Like when I needed to explain that DHL was bringing a package with my gluten-free chocolate chip cookies that Carrefour does not stock! There's been some shuffling of the wait staff in the last few days, but besides being new, quiet, and shy, they are all talented and all understand hospitality. The evening dinner is attended to by the top echelon of the hotel staff and everything is more than fine – which in my case means a very plain and simple American taste. Since I don't carry currency, the evening food bill goes on my room tab. Breakfast was part of the booking in the first place, but I don't fully understand what ”half-board” means, if that means evening dinner, so I will be inquiring about that. Being next-door to the train station means it's a three minute walk to excellent sight seeing and people watching. And McDonald's of you so care, and at least two mobile phone SIM shops. Carrefour is a 10 minute walk, and there is a shopping mall which is about a 20 minute walk which I will be visiting for recreation purposes and window shopping, to get a feel for the retail culture of this city. And people watching! I did read about the potable water situation on a Moroccan tourism page. This Ibis has plenty of bottled water, so just ask- at Reception and of course in the Restaurant.  I also read about cash versus credit card. The three places that I have spent money at have all accepted cards. It is currently Ramadan, but this Ibis respects International tourists' needs and wants. No disruption of service- and the staff seem to be very happy to be celebrating the holiday. My room had two minor maintenance issues, which were resolved quickly. The garden is beautiful and peaceful, and well manicured. I have stayed with other brand name chain hotels in the US and Europe. There is nothing in this historic building that is outdated, or in need of renovation. The most important

Great location, very convenient. Very friendly staff who are helpful. The rooms are large enough and the one I stayed in had a lovely view. The only thing I would suggest is that the breakfast menu should have more variety of fruit
