Sidi Ben Slimane El Jazouli Holidays from AU$1,873

We mostly enjoyed our stay there, all of the staff were very nice, I loved that they always refilled our water & drinks for us when eating. Food option was ok. We enjoyed the entertainments. They responded to complaints about our room swiftly. I didn’t like that the music near the pool was too loud, made it difficult to have a quiet afternoon nap. I also didn’t like that when checking out, they delayed us for about 15mins because they thought we stole one mug & wanted to take our deposit because of that which I found ridiculous as few days before, one of their staff came to request that we give them one of the mugs in our room which I personally gave it to him because even though there were 3 of us in the room, we didn’t need 2 mugs & secondly after asking us about the mug at the reception, they should have just left it at that instead of us having to argue thereby leaving a bitter taste in our mouth because of a mug considering that nothing was missing in our room, in my opinion. It will also be helpful if the hotel can work with a taxi company so that guests can easily call on a taxi when they need, that would have been helpful. they won’t allow In-drive taxis to come pick you up from the hotel premises, we had to walk to the street, they said because Indrive is illegal but we couldnt find taxi on Careem. Most tour companies couldn’t come pick us from the hotel without extra payment because the hotel is a bit outside of town. Aside the mug incident, we enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful tranquil luxury hotel. Amazing, helpful and friendly staff. Nice choice of pools. Good food. Free shuttle service very helpful although more time slots would be good. Lovely stay away from hustle and bustle of the City but with free access to the City via the shuttle which we used almost daily. Comfortable spacious room with balcony/terrace.

The managers aren’t truthful they say go back and we will sort your issue. The laundry team spoilt one of my matching garments by washing not dry cleaning as stipulated. The WiFi doesn’t work consistently. The room allocated was all in the shade and dark to go to The staff however are amazing. The food and atmosphere is good. The gardens and pool area immaculate Had stomach issues along with another man I got talking to the whole time of being there but don’t know why. Other than that the Spa amazing and to be honest if the manager on charge hadn’t lied to me I would have graded it more

Had a lovely stay here. Hotel is spotless - cleaning staff are excellent - and the rooms are really nice. The pools are great, there are lots of activities put on by friendly activities staff and a brilliant shuttle service to the centre of Marrakesh. The food was good, with lots of variety and some nice freshly cooked stations at the buffet. We liked the breakfasts and the snack bar food too - the latter a great option if you don’t want the buffet. We did have some issues - the evening entertainment was sometimes quite poor, very loud and you can’t really escape it because of the setup of the hotel and its bars. It would be improved if the sports bar had outdoor seating as it is away from the entertainment! The staff serving drinks at the snack bar in particular weren’t that helpful - I think they were undermined by how difficult it seemed to pour beers (though Mustafa in the Sports Bar was fantastic). The water from the air to water machines also tasted slightly dodgy at times. But overall we enjoyed and would recommend for a week’s stay in the sun - it was really good value for what we got!

The good: pristine facilities, practically spotless. Great support staff, breakfast was amazing. Rooms very clean. Good music throughout the day. Pool is very relaxing on a sunny day. The bad: if you have a room facing the pool area the music is played fairly loud until 11pm, it can be tough to get to bed if you have an early day. Food and alcohol at the hotel is quite expensive but for a 5-star hotel this is pretty on-par with what I was expecting. The ugly: Booked a room with 2 beds via Expedia 2 months prior. Upon check-in they said the room had 1 bed. When I inquired about the 2 beds (and I even showed them the proof of the booking which stated 2 double beds) they said they didn’t have our room and if I wanted a room with 2 beds I’d have to pay to upgrade. In my past experience other hotels would certainly provide you with that upgrade for free to meet the requirements you paid for. So despite booking a room with 2 beds I had to pay an addition 300MAD per night for the bed accommodations I was already suppose to have. Alcohol from outside the hotel is not allowed unless you pay a hefty fee at the front desk and even then it can’t leave your room, they say it’s for sanitation reasons but even having the option to keep it if you pay clearly means it’s just a money grab. Other than the bed issue at check-in I don’t have much else negative to say. Overall 4/5 stars for my 3-night stay.
