Good location. On walking distance of the Medina, Gueliz and the train station. Friendly staff at the desk. Clean room.

J, Netherlands

All good except 2 things : 1- heat not warm enough even though I put it at MAX . 2- the NOISE : don’t take room 203 / 204 . It’s so noisy that u won’t sleep all night as there is wedding party location next to you ( music on / off till 06:00 am ) . Watch out

Mohammed, United States of America

The night porter was friendly and helpful. The room was clean-ish. The WiFi worked ok. The tv had a good picture (but nothing in English to watch).

James, United Kingdom

The staff were all very friendly and the breakfast was quite good. They have a laundry service that was super affordable and very quick! We liked the location, walking distance to the medina and the new town.

Ninja, Canada

Hotel was OK. Not much more. Handy for main square and mosque but beware 'friendly' locals directing you to the souk and tanneries (when asking for directions to the main square), clearly to profit the locals. We went along and didn't mind but if you don't like walking or are short of time you may be disappointed.

Fatima is a very kind person; she is helpful in every moment. The place is splendid as the period of ISI 2017 International Conference. I suggest everyone to go to Marraquesh, to this Hotel.

Carla, Portugal

The location is close to the main square of Marrakech. You can go to almost every touristic place by walking, included Medina and Majorelle Gardens.

Ruben, Spain

I could not go to Morroco because of my flight problem. But the host helped me to cancel the booking, so I was really greatful to this hotel. I hope to visit this hotel soon! Thank you so much!!

Bonita, United Kingdom

The Akabar sits in the residential area of L’Hivernage and is decorated in Moroccan style. It offers an outdoor pool surrounded by palm trees and air conditioned rooms with balcony.

The famous Mohammed 5 Avenue, with its many shops, is just 1,650 feet away. There is also a kiosk in front of the Hotel Akabar selling tobacco, souvenirs and newspapers.

Akabar’s restaurant serves international and Moroccan cuisine in the elegant dining room with chandeliers. You can also have a drink at the bar or have a snack at the pool-side fast-food.

The rooms are all equipped with a TV, a telephone and a safe. They each have a private bathroom with a bathtub.

The Akabar Hotel staff speaks English, French and Spanish and will be happy to help you organize your stay. Front desk is open 24 hours and free Wi-Fi access is provided in public areas.

Local activities include golf, horseback riding and tennis. Hotel Akabar is just one mile from Jamaâ El Fna Square and 4 miles from Menara Airport. Free private parking is available on site.

This is our guests' favorite part of Marrakesh, according to independent reviews.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.1 for a two-person trip.

눉Breakfast, found options were limited.
눇Location is great for money, but the restaurant smells like cigarette smoke (because the bar is on the other side of the wall) which was very unappetizing. But if you want to be in walking distance of the Medina but don't want to spent a lot of money then this is the place for you.

- • Stayed 2 nights

눉The location. I always book central so that I walk straight out into the action. Akabar is 10-15 minutes walk (much of it along quiet streets - ideal for muggers) from either the old centre or the new one. Breakfast. They charge 16 Euros for that slop! Unbelievable. Mine was included, or I’d have refused to pay more than 2. No fresh fruit, cheeses or ham - staples of most buffets. And the guy running it? Let’s just say “unusual”. The bathroom. No plugs (getting used to that, but still find it annoying). Fittings covered in lime scale. Unpleasant.
눇The night porter was friendly and helpful. The room was clean-ish. The WiFi worked ok. The tv had a good picture (but nothing in English to watch).

눉Location was a bit remote for Westerners looking for alcohol (although hotel did have it's own licenced bar). Air con didn't work and no remote for TV. Mentioned this to reception and nothing happened! Breakfast was average but breakfast 'waiter' was the friendliest person in the hotel.
눇Hotel was OK. Not much more. Handy for main square and mosque but beware 'friendly' locals directing you to the souk and tanneries (when asking for directions to the main square), clearly to profit the locals.
