The reception area very nice but smelled strongly of paint ,there seemed to be some upgrading going on.
The staff on reception were unwelcoming and did nt even say hello.
The room was ok, reasonably clean on first sight, the bathroom small and in need of upgrade.
The view of the sea was good, the balcony a little small and tatty and only one chair ,
We had an army of ants sharing the room, they travelled all the way round the room under the bed and out on the balcony,
We could not fault the food we ate ,both breakfast and lunch were good, the waiting on staff pleasant and friendly.
We were going to stay for longer but the general feel of the hotel was not in keeping with what we expect of 4 stars,
We checked out next morning , we told them about the ants but were met with disbelief !!

Hotel nicely located on the Corniche, the seaside suburb with lot of nearby cafes, restaurants and clubs. However, the hotel is located at a very busy intersection, and Casablanca drivers seem to have their hand glued to the horn. If you are unlucky enough to get a room on the street side of the hotel, it is highly unlikely you will get any rest at all. However, if you score a room at the back of the hotel, not only will you enjoy a nice view on the ocean, but the noise will also be blocked by the two adjacent hotels and you will sleep like a baby.
The hotel has recently been renovated and the public areas are quite nice. The rooms are unequal: the rooms themselves have been renovated and look very modern, but the bathrooms have been forgotten. They are however very clean.
Staff is helpful.
So all in all, you will enjoy this hotel and its location exclusively if you get a seaside room. A street-side room will drive you mad unless you bring ear plugs.

I booked this hotel because I knew the area of Corniche in Casablanca is know for it's beautifull surroundings.
On the internetpage it looked OK. The reception area is clean and ideal for businessmeetings. Receptionstaff, however, is very ignorant, arrogant and not very helpfull.
I was given a room with seaview and the first night was OK. However, the 2nd day I was told I needed to change rooms 'as maintenance needed to repair the water in my bathroom'. It turned out I had to move because a large party of French travellers were assigned to the sea view rooms. No compensation on the fact I had to change rooms pack and unpack.
The new room was on the street side. It was impossible to sleep the rest of my stay, as the hotel is just at one of the most busiest corners of Boulevard de la Corniche, and traffic is very very noisy 24/7.

Apart from the fact that the rooms are definately NOT 4 star and in no way look like the rooms on the internet (rooms painted a depressing grey colour) I had, nearly on a daily basis, problems with the key of my room. 9 out of 10 because the batteries of the electronic keycard had run out. Maintenance service was quite pleasant and helpfull, receptionstaff was, on the other hand, very rude and clearly annoyed by the fact I kept on having technical faults in my room.

I asked several receptionist for information, such as horseriding, hammam and traintable for Marrakech. All gave me false information, maybe due to total ignorance or just because they weren't bothered. Found out myself that at 5 minutes from the hotel (by taxi) there's a really nice ranch were you can hire horses and gallop on the beach. As for the hammams: better ask a taxi driver instead of reception, most taxidrivers are more helpfull then the hotel reception

The area of the hotel is quite nice, nice little restaurants, bars and not far from the center (petit taxi would cost you about 20 Dirham at the most...not even 2 Euro's).

I can not reccomend hotel de la Corniche in any way, next time I go to Casablanca I will try to book in hotel Azur, which is in the same area but looks much better, and there's hardly any price difference. I spoke with people that stayed in the Azur hotel and appearantly it is much better.
