Hotel Ali

Didn’t stay here, we used the Hotel Ali 5 days out of 6 for breakfast whilst we were in town. Unlimited food for 49MAD, can’t complain too much. Didn’t have eggs on one of the days for some unknown reason, apart from that, this place always set us up for the day - we weren’t usually hungry again until 5/6pm!

I had a nice stay at Hotel Ali, conveniently located in the bustling centre of Marrakech, with a currency exchange and location right next to Jemaa el-fnaa square. Lots of restaurants to choose from nearby and links to transport.

The room, although basic, was clean and comfortable and featured aircon, which was necessary with the heat. It also had a nice balcony. The staff on reception were very helpful, particularly with regards to excursions; Ouzoud waterfalls are a must see! WiFi connection and the opportunity to buy bottled water throughout.

Like most hotels, external noise could be heard; wasn't too bad but if not your preference, be sure to bring earplugs. Room keys were to be returned on leaving the building; understandable but not ideal. There was also no safe in the room.

Overall, very good value with free breakfast and everything on your doorstep.

Stayed in hotel Ali lots of times its a cool place always buzzing with life right in the heart of medina everything on your doorstep here the real morroco.rooms with big balcony comfy beds plus added bonus of a lift in it. Hind at reception so helpful great English and goes out of her way to please you don't know what they would do if hadn't got Hind she's the best .rooftop restaurant lovely plus the breakfast is in abundance and lovely .I'd rate this place 10 out of 10.thanks Hind for your kindness.

Very bad experience!
Booked a double room 3 weeks in advance. Got to the hotel....which was very busy...there was a massive queue outside waiting for the currency exchange. Had to push our way through to get to the hotel reception.
Told the lady on reception we had a reservation....she was very rude and told me the hotel was full and I had no reservation. When I insisted..yes I did ...and showed her my confirmation of booking...did she then look and 'find' me on her reservation list....no apology from her.
The roo
Itself was OK...but it had five beds...we had to go and make sure we weren't going to be sharing our room with someone else!
We were woken by drilling and banging after 12 midnight....me and my partner both went down individually to complain...the guy on reception did nothing..until we threatened to call the police.
We will not be staying again.

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.

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.

L'emplacement excellent.
Le rapport qualité prix

Schlecht

Bien situado.
Un poco ruidoso

Das Ali ist ein super Ausgangspunkt für alle spannenden Unternehmungen in Marrakech. Perfektes Traveller Hotel im Herzen der Medina. Sehr gutes Frühstücksbuffet. Freundliches Personal. Sehr authentisch mit Moschee. Wer die Ruhe sucht, findet sie im Hotel Ali zwischen 23:00 h und 06:00 h.

Kaum W-Lan im Zimmer!

Let's start with good things: the location is great right by the square where all the tours take of and market full of diarrhea inducing food stalls. The bed in the room was clean and sheets were properly changed every day. Now on the downside the rooms are dated, bathrooms have rusty faucets and tile is cracked. My last day I had a swarm of ants in the shower that has stains by the way. The worst part is service or lack of thereof. The réception guy(it was the same guy for all 5 nights that I stayed) started by asking what is my room number, whereas normally the hotel assignes it, then he was staying I was from China for a couple of minutes instead of actually checking me in, he never explained where the breakfast was and that I had to get a ticket from the réception for it, that took me good 20 min next morning to figure out still without his input. When I asked where is the nearest laundry(on another day) he pointed outside waived to the left without the name or distance indication.
To resume: great location, dated rooms, horrible service.

El Hotel Ali es muy conocido en Marrakech, esta a metros de la famosa plaza Jemma el fna, muy bien conectada con todo, buena ubicación. Lo recomiendo.

The room is very basic. The room & bathroom were not clean.Only one small towel for a room of two beds! The elevator can easily be blocked during the Muslim prayer times because there is a mosque integrated into the hotel! Staff reception could more friendly.

Everything clean

Tout était parfait

Chambre faite tout les jours et serviettes changées

meme si l hotel ne brille pas de mille feux il est tres bien entretenu . le menage dans la chambre et dans les couloirs est tres bien fait ;la literie super, les petits dejeuners copieux,personnel toujours souriant et a vos petits soins grand merci a la reception, nous reviendrons car le prix est a la portee de tout le monde.

El hotel es muy facil de ubicar frente a la plaza y esta sobre una casa de cambio que funciona desde la mañana temprano hasta la noche. Se ve que las personas que hacen la limpieza se esmeran en su trabajo. Se escucha un poco el movimiento nocturno al menos en las habitaciones que dan a la calle. Volvería a elegir este hotel, es recomendable si huscas en este rango de precios.
