“Fairly good for a budget hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2011

We stayed here for just 1 night, but we found it to be a good budget hotel good for a short stay. Hotel is located near the central square, though imposible to find without asking for directions. Private parking near the hotel. Room was big and clean, with 2 separate beds. There was no airco, so you might want to plan your stay away from high summer. Door lock seemed iffy, so do not leave anything of value behind. Hotel offered a very good 3-course dinner for 70 dirhams pp, which is served on the roof terrace. Although the terrace nor the view was anything special, the food was surprisingly good and that's says something after an already 2-week stay in Morocco during which we were spoiled with excellent cooking.
Shower had warm, but not hot, water. Breakfast was served at the pool, with fresh OJ, pain au chocolat and bread.
I would recommend this hotel, but for a short stay only.

“Decent Budget hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 March 2009

Stayed here 3 nights as members of a walking group. Like most hotels in Morocco this one is looking a bit "tired", and if the owners have spent anything on maintenance in the past decade, it doesn't show.

The hotel is in an excellent location inside the town walls, and we noticed that that it has a secure parking area. Some of the rooms are better than others; ours had neither aircon, which we didn't need, nor heating which would have been nice. Our room looked out over the street, but there was no noise problem. Other rooms looked over the pool, and some had balconies. Our room was clean, but the sheets wer too small and pillows too hard. These latter seem near-universal problems in Morocco.

Breakfast was the basic French minimum, with decent coffee. Evening meal in the restaurant was OK, if a bit under-spiced. The hotel does not sell wine or beer, but will happily serve alcohol at no charge if you buy it elsewhere. We bought both wine and beer down a dark alley at a hatch into the bar of the Hotel Taroudannt, on the main square. Exciting!

Hotel staff were OK, spoke no English, were quite communicative in French.

The pool looked nice, but was too cold for use in February.

Taroudannt is well worth a visit, and this hotel would suit the independant traveller, if you get a decent price. If arriving in the hot season, make sure your room has working Aircon!

“Very reasonable and clean hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2008

Comfortable and clean hotel with nice pool and good restaurant, very reasonably priced.
Some rooms have a VERY small window and it is a bit old fashioned, but a good choice anyhow.

“Value for money hotel!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2008

Above average for the hotel rate - bear in mind this isn't an expensive hotel. We had a decent sized en suite twin room with double doors overlooking the inner courtyard and swimming pool. Breakfast served by the pool - didn't use the pool though. Roof terrace overlooked the Atlas mountains; tourist menu at 70 Dh was reasonable. Also on the terrace a large and comfortable sitting room for guests.
Good location on the edge of the medina and plenty of shopping opportunites there.

“Do not stay here ”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 July 2007
1
person found this review helpful

We could not find any reviews on this Hotel so decided to book for 5 days and hope, when we arrived the man in reception did not speak much english but we managed to explain we had booked a double room by telephone so he handed us a key and pointed to the stairs, we were not very impressed so far but decided to reserve judgement we found the room and unlocked the door to find three shabby looking single beds and a dingy small window then I noticed a rucksack and clothes on the bed obviously we had been given key to someones room, we went back down stairs and were given two more keys and told to go and look in those rooms.

The staff [apart from the man in reception] were fairly friendly but the place was dingy and dirty the water in the pool looked terrible and had numerous foreign bodies in it so we decided to give it a miss.
Our room was dirty and not much furniture it was so depressing that we stayed out as much as possible, I had a bad attach of hay fever so was confined to the room for a couple of days but then decided I could not stand it any longer and we did not stay the 5 days we had planed.

Basically if you are a backpacker who just wants somewhere to put your head down I guess it would do but do not leave anything valuable in your room because even if you lock the door someone else may be given your key !!

The best part about our trip to Taroudant was leaving there !!!
