Dear Guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I wish you had a better experience, it is feedback like this that we learn from and use to improve. We work hard to deliver an exceptional guest experience, and it's apparent in this case that we fell short. If you give us a chance to earn back your trust, I can assure you that we will do our best to give you the great hotel experience that so many of our guests have grown so fond of.Sincerely,
The location in Hivernage is very good with easy access to both the Medina and Gueliz. The room was clean and spacious and the service excellent, the team made me feel super welcome from the security at the entrance to the front desk, the bar and the restaurant.

Dear Guest,Thank you for the great review of our hotel! We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again very soon.Sincerely,
While the hotel was very nice, we were very disappointed with the transportation service they arranged for us . We requested transport to the airport very early (3:45 am) the next day. The receptionist told us it could be arranged but had to be paid in cash (approx $25). We paid, but no receipt was offered. Our cab was ready at the appointed time and took us to the airport as requested, but the driver said he had not been paid and insisted on another $25. After a brief discussion, We gave him all the Moroccan money we had and added another $7 to make up the difference. I’m not sure who benefitted from this scam, but future travelers should insist on a receipt or some kind of voucher if they plan to use this service.

4.1/5 from me. Good, standard business style hotel. Rooms are quite large. Separate toilet and bathroom. In the bathroom, I had a bath and a separate shower. Pool area is nice with comfortable seating and shade. Location is great near lots of lounges, clubs and restaurants. Fast Wi-Fi. Very good room service and everything can be ordered from the restaurant. Comfortable bed. Negatives: no chairs on the balcony and room a little like an office with grey carpet and furniture, etc. Recommended.

Great location, wonderful staff
The staff at this hotel were wonderful and really added to the experience of staying there. Reception staff were very welcoming and went out of their way to help.
The hotel's location is brilliant for exploring the city and many attractions are within easy walking distance. There are also many decent restaurants close by.
The rooms at the hotel are a good size and have a degree of comfort but are extremely dated and in need of refurbishment. The bathroom had a separate bath and shower and hot water was plentiful. The bed was very comfortable, there were only two pillows however and both were in need of replacement. There was a kettle and microwave in the room and teabags and sachets of coffee were provided but no creamer which I found strange.
The gym was spacious but has no fixed or free weights and the cross trainer is in need of repair. The pool area was very clean and had plenty of furniture for guests to use and this included parasols. The pool bar was very clean and there was a good selection of drinks and a decent lunchtime menu.
Breakfast was buffet style and available from 7am. There was a huge range of choice and of a high quality.
I really enjoyed my stay and the hotel provided value for money.

Very good experience. Staff was very friendly and was always available to resolve any issues. Cleaning staff did a good job however at times needed a reminder.
Breakfast was good but could improve by having more variety of fruits and children friendly items.
Overall very good experience and highly recommended.

Novotel 4 star is in a good location in the heart of the upmarket area nice restaurant and a 10-15min walk to the market, other hotels in this area are a lot more expensive.
Rooms are ok good size with daily house keeping there was no milk with the tea and coffee station.
Breakfast nothing too special service is slow and the omelette station is not always up and running.
Reception ( Iesha was very helpful booked restaurants etc for us) other Hotel staff are very good and helpful, for the price your paying in this location it’s good value.

We arrived and were denied access using Expedia booking for reasons that we arrived after midnight although we made our booking after midnight. It was very much disappointing from Expedia thatI was charged all the fees.
The location was great and some of the staff were as well. But the place is run down and dirty
Worn / stained furniture
Broken lamp
Dirty carpet
Dirty bathroom and scummy tiles
Next time I’ll be staying at Sofitel or a Riad

Even though it looks modern and grand hotel, rooms were not of good quality, some of the rooms we got had curtains not properly hanged, other did not proper curtains at all. There were other items (tables and tiles in the bathroom that looked worn and broken (they were repaired but poorly)
Comfy and great location. The hotel pool was being renovated which meant it was useless and took away the relaxing element of staying there. They did offer me to use their sister hotel pool but it’s was a short walk away. I would stay here again. The breakfast was good and the hotel is really arty to stay at. The room is big and comfy bed. I would suggest you stay in pool view room to avoid noise from nearby clubs / bars and cars late at night. I would stay here again. The staff are helpful.
I've used this hotel twice now for short business trips. it's well located a short walk away from the old city and close to the airport a short cab ride away. Pool is good. staff are friendly and attentive and the restaurant has a nice choice of food and drinks - some other reviews moan about standard of rooms and hotel - i found everything to be of a good standard and will stay again.
At check in we felt bad sleeping in that room. Carpet was stained all over and felt gross. Room was warm, ac vent away from the vent by the front door, amenities was only shampoo and soap. At check out we had to request for a receipt and it eas a big issue

Disliked: Staff & service
Poor room design--no bedside table and couldn't easily reach the curtains as TV in the way. Duvet old and filling extremely lumpy with patches with no filling at all-it should have been thrown out long ago. Air-con ineffective.
Service offhand. Drinks in restaurant took ages to arrive. At breakfast I asked where the hot water for tea was.The guy just pointed vaguely leaving me to work out that it was a kettle on the end of the bar that I had to switch on and boil up myself.
Food however was good and nicely presented.
We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of April. The area around the hotel is great and only 15-20 mins walk to the medina. The hotel lobby-bar-restaurant area is pretty nice. Pool area is ok but could be cleaner. Room was clean. It's a nice 3.5 star hotel at the right price. Bartender Yassine was very friendly and effective.
