“Support Art Deco hotels before they disappear.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2011

If you love architecture, Hotel Volubilis and its sister Hotel Transatlantique next door are for you. Hotel Volubilis is cheaper and a step down in quality. Breakfast is served in the dining room of Hotel Transatlantique. The bathroom sink leaked, but otherwise, my room was clean. The furniture is old. I always cringe when I read that a hotel has been 'renovated'. It usually means the charm has been erased and replaced with generic blandness. I am a frequent traveller who prefers old. I especially liked watching the sunrise over Casablanca from my 1919 balcony. If you need quiet, use earplugs. This hotel is downtown, not in a sleepy suburb. Plenty of sidewalk coffee cafes inhabit the neighborhood surrounding this classic Casablanca hotel.

Room Tip: I like the top floor front rooms with balconies.

“Don't Go There”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 October 2010

It is the worst place on this planet. It is filthy dirty, smelly noisy, unsecure and should be closed down as a fire hazzard.
The Breakfast is olive's and stail bread with jam. There is no hot water in the rooms. The staff are just so pleasant as they rip you off...
It all smells of sewerage and mould. The wireless internet is in another hotel next door and not in the hotel as advertised.. The room rate changes daily and has nothing to do with the advertised. Your room key fits any door in the hotel.. Just don't go there at all.. It is very unsafe in Casa and dont go out at night as you will probably get muged..
Head to Marrakech on the train and stay at Hotel Ali in the Medina..

“Unsafe,rude, extremely dirty,poor condition, worst hotel ever.Please do not stay.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 October 2010

The hotel was really bad. The staff was helpful at first but was rude later on. The room was extremely dirty. We had to change the room as soon as we went inside our room.The new room was also very dirty. The bathrooms was dirty. There was a horrible smell in the bathroom.We both couldn't even take a shower the next day because it was so dirty. The room was not even cleaned the next day. When asked they told me we that they will clean it the next day.The hot water would not work. Had to keep the tap on for around 20 mins to get some hot water. Our friend who was in another room actually slipped on the bathroom at cut his arm.The staff was really unfriendly.The hotel does not even have a first aid kit.When we asked for help, instead of helping we were told to go to the pharmacy near by to seek medical help.The hotel had a night club with very strange men coming in the night.Especially the hotel next door Transatlantic their was another night club with very loud music every night.There was men and ladies coming in and out of the hotel rooms every now and then. They were drunk and very loud.It was really loud and it seemed very unsafe to stay in the hotel common area at night.We were using the internet one night and the staff from the hotel next door turned the lights off on us. The food was bad as well. It was the worst hotel room I have ever stayed in. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The hotel boasts a 2 star but I think it should be reviewed. The common area decor was nice and sort of grand but altogether it was very run down .This is got to be the worst hotel ever.No one should have to live in a hotel like this.

“Central, clean, safe and welcoming”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 April 2010

I stayed here for two nights and felt that it was good value for money in an excellent location and that my room was safe and secure. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful throughout. The rooms are relatively small and basic but they are light and very clean, with nice balconies to sit out on. Breakfast is in the linked Transatlantic Hotel, giving you a chance to enjoy its "bygone era" granduer. A very good budget option all in all.
