My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon, and unfortunately our experience was quite disappointing.

The first room we were given was advertised as a Deluxe Room, but it clearly wasn’t what was shown in the photos. To make matters worse, the shower had visible black mould, which is unacceptable for any hotel, especially one charging premium rates. After we complained, staff showed us a couple of alternative rooms. While the replacement room was an improvement, it still didn’t feel particularly deluxe—it simply matched what had originally been advertised.

There were a few positives. The complimentary mint tea was excellent, and the rooftop pool area was pleasant with great views. However, even this experience was let down when we noticed a large number of ants crawling across the rooftop bar counter.

Customer service was another major issue. On several occasions we tried calling room service with no answer. We eventually had to contact reception just to get through, and when we did, the receptionist’s attitude was unhelpful and dismissive, which only added to our frustration.

The one consistently positive aspect of our stay was the bed. It was large, comfortable, and provided a good night’s sleep.

Overall, while the hotel has some potential and a few enjoyable features, the poor room standards, cleanliness issues, lack of responsiveness, and disappointing customer service meant it fell well below our expectations for a honeymoon stay.

The staff were very helpful with tips and directions. The breakfast was very good and the staff were attentive and offering extras for example omelettes or warming bread and bringing hot drinks. Wi-Fi was not reliable. The hotel could use some improvement to rooms specially bathrooms. The one thing that we need to warn people is parking. Please take pictures if you are gonna leave the keys with them. Our rented car got scratches and no one held responsibility for them. If you are staying only in Marrakech, don’t rent a car, taxi or Uber is always there, better walk. This place to close to almost everything.

The family-owned hotel with everything you may possibly need to make your vacation memorable, and a beautiful vibe. The couple are so friendly, cordial, and personable. It’s located wonderfully: absolutely close to both bus station (in case you are using public transport to/from the town), the Medina, souls, beaches … You cannot beat the cleanliness, the amount of care they provide, and hospitality. I extended my stay and couldn’t think of any other hotel to go before my flight back to London. Thank you so much 💕

Hotel is nice, breakfast was ok. All the staff were pleasant and helpful. Nearby there is a lot of modern shopping areas with big brands but also you are only a 30 minute walk from the medina. There is a few nice parks in the area too. The room itself was clean except for the shower in the bathroom which had a bit of mold round the grouting. You can hear the calls to prayer quite loudly from the nearby speaker so if youre a light sleeper bring ear buds. We were woken up by people walking around in the hallway area, they werent being loud but we could hear them very loudly because the doors dont seal very well. The Air condition was good and worked well

Bed was comfortable and room was really high standard. Plenty of towels and hairdryer. Shampoo bottle was empty but I think this was a mistake. High standards of cleanliness. Hotel has quest theme and was a nice touch to celebrate Ibn battutua
Breakfast had a lot of variety drinks , hot option, fruit yoghurts, bread and moroccan pancakes. plenty of tables and very attentive staff. I would happily stay here again as it was good value and great location. thanks all staff.

The location was great, very close to tourist attraction, plenty of Convenient stores and restaurant within walking distance. Staff were welcoming and polite, we were checked in an hour before our check in time, breakfast was nice but not plenty options to choose from we had same thing every morning.The cleanliness of our room wasn't good enough, our room was cleaned every afternoon but the curtains in our bedroom was dirty and dusty, our bed sheet wasn't changed in the 4 nights we spent it was only rearranged, the toilet bin was so rusty, soap dispenser was dirty, we got clean towel everyday but again those towels needs changing. It's an affordable place to stay more or less a 3 star hotel so I'm not surprise but I enjoyed my stay regardless.

Nothing wrong with the property itself, it was a clean and well maintained hotel. I think it would help travelers immensely if booking sites like Expedia start showing property age along side other amenities. I do travel a lot and can report that the bathroom in the room I stayed could be a top contender for world’s tiniest bathroom.

First time in Marrakech. Grateful to have stayed at Hotel Ibn Batouta. Gueliz is a great location. It is a short taxi ride to the ever bustling Medina. Yet, it is a little quieter than the busy touristy Medina. Hotel Ibn Batouta is wonderful. The staff were friendly and welcoming. They bent over backwards to make my stay memorable. Absolutely loved their helpfulness. There are two swimming pools. One pool is on the first floor next to the restaurant. The second pool is on the rooftop. The staff made my stay just amazing. I asked questions and every staff member was willing to help and advise. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. If I return to Marrakech I will stay in Hotel Ibn Batouta again. Highly recommend.

One of my favorites!

I love this hotel. I’ve stayed at the Ibn Batouta several times during my visits to Marrekesh. Hamza always greets me with a big smile and makes me feel like I’m part of the family. The front desk staff are always very warm and welcoming. The Hotel is in a great location in Gueliz and is very close to great shopping centers and amazing restaurants. I highly recommend this hotel.

Stopover

The hotel served it purpose as a layover for 1 night to break a long trip. It is strandard business hotel. Back rooms high up where noisy from traffic on main street one black back. Clean standard room.

Great vacation

Very good quality 3 star hotel, it felt more luxurious than 3 stars. Staff really helpful and friendly. Nice breakfast. Short walk to the centre. I would recommend this hotel and I’ll be happy to stay there again. A nice rooftop and pool!. Only negative comment is they don’t sell alcohol.

Excellent choice

We wanted a hotel near the airport for our last night as we had an early flight. Very happy with this choice.
I want to particularly mention the lady at the front desk. She went above and beyond as my friend had done too much shopping and her bag was overweight and this lady actually repacked her bags and redistributed the weight and weighed the bags to make sure. Such dedication of the staff to help us was so appreciated. Also arranged airport transfer at 3am.
I would definitely stay here again.
Included buffet breakfast was also very good and a wide variety of items.

Excellent Hotel with close restaurants and shops

I cannot fault this hotel one bit, me and the Mrs love walking everywhere and everything was within reach, there was a local mini market for snacks and cold drinks right outside, a shisha bare opposite, the main strip just a street behind, access to KFC, McDonald’s, Pizza Hut and other restaurants, 25 min walk to Koutubia Masjid and Jmaa el Fna square (souk) - hotel is very clean, staff very friendly and breakfast delicious, I always ended up making a paratha BLT lol, Moroccan tea is just yum! Room is very clean, bathroom is very clean with a bidet, balcony to hang washed clothes (came handy) and they also printed out my boarding pass for me too! 5* many thanks

The hotel is situated a 1/2 hours walk to the markets, museums, and a lot of other attractions.

Breakfast was simple , a choice for most people's tastes.

Great location, excellent value for money

The location is great for Gueliz and the Medina, which is only a 20-minute walk away. The rooftop pool area is really nice and the included breakfast has a good array of treats. There’s a second pool down by the kitchen too, which is a cute spot.

Many of the staff are lovely and really helpful, and they made us feel very welcome - especially the bell hop and the breakfast waiting staff. The desk staff aren’t really that interested in helping, but they’re generally polite.

This is an excellent value option, and there are tons of nice places to eat and drink nearby, which is handy as the hotel doesn’t serve alcohol or much in the way of food after breakfast. The no-alcohol aspect is true of quite a few places in the local area, which is of course fair enough, but good to be aware of if you like a drink.

Our Fifth Stay

The staff, location and price make this hotel great. We have stayed here many times. The hotel is not luxury, but we have sufficiently enjoyed it. However, this year we felt the rooms are starting to show some wear and tear. They are starting to look a little tired. They could use a refresh of furniture and lighting. The breakfast is still very good and plentiful. Most of the staff who work direct with guests are very friendly and very helpful. Overall, for overpriced Marrakech, this is still a very good medium priced hotel in an excellent location.

Firstly the hotel location and pool/lounge were great. However the rooms were dirty and not clean. On the bed sheets we found long hair on our pillow and had stains on our bedsheets. The hotel staff was mixed, some were nice, some weren’t, some didn’t bother with their job and watch YouTube videos all day. One lady was very difficult at reception. I complained about the iron not working and she made it a big deal. Despite her ordering a new iron her attitude was great when other customers were around, however her attitude was different when I went to speak to her alone. Clearly demonstrates her willingness and attitude was very unpredictable. The 2 gentlemen at reception also said check in was 3 pm when it clearly said 2pm on the booking but we didn’t check in until 3:30pm. A few guys were very nice such as the ones at the top of the pool and in the restaurant. The gentleman at the front door was very nice and welcoming. The other staff at the reception desk should learn from their younger peers. The older man who looked after our bags was very nice and friendly. The cleaning team was also good. Only the reception desk people were different and had bad attitude.

Good location but disappointed.

I booked this hotel based on previous reviews, however, i wasn't entirely happy with my stay.
Before arriving in the country i tried to call, email via hotel.com and even emailed the hotel directly but had no answer or reply at all. There were things i wanted to confirm and wanted to arrange a transfer from the airport to the hotel but they didnt even bother to respond so we had to make our own way once we landed.
When arriving at the hotel i mentioned this, however, the man behind reception had no interest at all and didnt even offer an apology. Before booking the hotel the website says check in is at 2pm, i managed to get my room at 2.45pm.
The room itself was clean although the bathroom light was very dim and the shower leaks onto the floor.
There was a kettle in the room, however, no milk/milk sachets are provided.
There was a tv in the room but only had limited channels - 5 worked max.
The best thing about the hotel is the location - its close to pretty much everything. Also, I'd like to praise the breakfast staff who were very polite and attentive to our needs. The breakfast options are also good.

Generally speaking, the hotel was quite nice. My only issue was when it came to check-out, I was told to pay 55 Moroccan Dirham instead of 15 (on my receipt from Expedia, it mentioned that I had to pay a local tax at the hotel of $1.99 CAD, which translates to 15 Moroccan Dirham). I'm not sure why that was the case but it was pretty disappointing overall after what was a remarkable experience. I ended up getting my issue resolved with Expedia but I just want others to be aware of this and have your receipts with you.

Overall we had a lovely stay in this hotel. Staff were very friendly, the rooms & common areas very clean. Good self service breakfast with varied choices. Only thing I would recommend is asking for a room away from the road which is so noisy, even during the night….mad. Added bonus was the rooftop pool. All in all it worked for us well…. walking distance to the Madina & nearby lovely choice of restaurants.

We stayed for 6 nights and returned for 2 nights. Upon arrival the hotel presented as very clean, well maintained and the reception staff were welcoming and friendly. The room was clean, good bedding, adequate towels, a room safe, the bathroom was clean and shower and toiletries were very good. Breakfast was continental, reasonable choice, fresh bread and pastries, limited hot dishes. You can order eggs from the waiter, although this is not advertised. About 15 min walk to Carrefour on the way to Koutoubia mosque and souk/medina which is about 25 mins. We did not get hassled anywhere apart from the usual scams in the souk. Beware anyone who wants to lead you anywhere, they will say, \"I am going there anyway, I work there, I do not want money, looking is free\". However, when you get there, there is pressure to buy and your helpful guide definitely wants money. The tanneries are a must to visit, but 'everyone' will want to show you the way. However, they are difficult to find, even with GPS on the phone, as accuracy in the narrow alleyways is poor, and you may well be in a parallel alleyway, which might be a dead end!!! Despite some false trails we did not get los

So, a very good, very clean hotel in a good location to visit the tourist areas. We wish Ibn Batouta management and staff all the best for the future, and we thoroughly recommend this hotel. It is high end 3 star. They also offer airport transfer by luxury SUV, at a reasonable price, very efficient.
