Hotel Ali

Bonjour, Sincèrement c’est largement suffisant pour y passer quelques nuits. Un peu bruyant du fait qu’il est quasi sur la place Jemma el Fna. Mais Il faut savoir ce que l’on veut. Seul bemol, des bruits de déménagement de bon matin dans la pièce du dessus ( on occupait la 205) Sinon dans l’ensemble ça va

The room is warm and cozy. The hotel is close to everything from restaurant, money changer, old medina souk and Ben Yousef Madrasa

We had an issue in the exchange point of the hotel, which seems to be the best one in the city. The guy in the exchange point asked to enter the PIN number twice in the payment system because, apparently, it did not work the first time. We got the dirhams we asked for, but we got two charges in the bank. When we realized that, we went back to the exchange point but the guys were quite rude and they were not willing to check anything to help us. I do not want to think the treatment was so bad because we were four women, but they asked for our guide and told us to go to the police. On top of that, although this place is famous for not charging any commission, today they charged a 5% (it was adviced, the paper was just below the one that said they do not charge commission). Our bitter experience in Marrakesh. Quite disappointed, we had already gone to that place without a problem.

The Hotel Ali is a unique hotel. I have been coming to the hotel for the last 17 years and it holds a special place for me. It has a wonderful atmosphere that hasn't changed over the years. It is located right by the main Jemaa El Fna square with an amazing rooftop terrace overlooking it. The rooms are clean and good value and some come with a terrace. The staff are also very nice and hospitable. I would like to give a special mention to Hind at the reception who was always very kind to me. Finally, the buffet breakfast is delicious. I highly recommend staying here.

We were offered one room with 7 beds, stuffed like sardins in a tin, while our guide had booked two rooms for five! No other room available, 8pm, no choice but to accept. In the room: TV and aircon did not work, there was no window except one opening on a little laundry room ( the person did open the window at 10pm, waking up our son), and tap evacuation in the bathroom was blocked. 2 towels for the five of us. We were offered ONE other room,slightly better, after one night (3 night stay). No discount no apologies, not even a smile. Greatest drawback remains noise: people talking in the corridors at all times if day and night. Breakfast was very nice, though.

Gave ali a 5 out of 5 because its worth it.its great value for money. Its in the middle of everything so no need to taxi to shop the owners and staff are super nice and it has the best exchange rate in marrakech that even outside visitors travel for the value it gives .the rooms with balcony are cosy and huge balcony to sunbathe and watch all the livelyness of the medina .ali has 2 restaurants the one on ground level has the best burgers in medina food is quality for us Europeans.

It was really a peaceful place ,much thanksfull for the top welcoming ppl there It will be a pleasure to come back there a soon as possible especially with family,I think they will adore this place ,and best time there is up to September .

Great atmosphere and service in a clean and friendly environment Freshly cooked authentic food and great value for money Brilliant view over the bustling square I Would definitely recommend this restaurant

Great value option. We stayed here for just one night at the end of our trip. Our room was basic but quite spacious and very clean. Bathroom with bath and overhead shower. Our room was overlooking the interior patio but there are a few rooms with balconies available. Breakfast was included in the price and was buffet style. The location is really convenient and the cafe downstairs couldn’t be better for people watching. Great money exchange too which we always use when in Marrakech. The only downside for us was our room was quite noisy at night. No noise from outside, it was other guests coming and going, doors slamming etc. I think we were just unlucky as it’s not something the hotel can help, there just happened to be noisy guests when we were there. The best thing about Hotel Ali is the staff. All were polite, cheerful helpful and welcoming. Special mention to the lovely lady on reception who kindly praised my husband’s limited Moroccan Arabic and the waiter from the hotel’s cafe who helped us out (without me asking) when there was a mix up with our airport taxi.
