    Ain Leuh

    This is an excellent place to stay, especially if you're hiking in the mountains. All rooms have bathrooms and there's constant hot water. The friendly…

  • Hôtel de la Gare

    Middle Atlas

    Clean, comfortable (if somewhat brown) rooms surround an inner courtyard in this good-value choice. It's convenient for the train and bus stations…

    Middle Atlas

    The best feature of this large four-star hotel on a rise above Volubilis is its expansive views over the Roman ruins and surrounding countryside, which…

  • Grand Hôtel du Dauphiné

    Ideally located on the ville nouvelle's main square, the Dauphiné is good value in the budget category but suffers from noisy plumbing and a noisy…

  • Hôtel Le Panorama

    Azrou

    Built in a grand alpine-chalet style, this is a comfortable, if tired, budget hotel. It's in a quiet wooded spot northeast of town (a very dark walk back…

  • Hôtel Atlas

    Midelt

    It's a bit cramped and rough around the edges, but this pension's friendly family owners make up for its shortcomings. Zellige (geometric mosaic tilework)…

  • Hôtel des Cèdres

    Azrou

    Built in 1925, this hotel still has a hint of deco styling in its fixtures. In the past few years renovations have added en suite bathrooms to every room,…

    This cheapie on the cusp of Place Aharrach is easy to miss (the sign is hidden under the arcaded front), but inside the strawberry-pink paint job is hard…

  • Hôtel Rif

    Meknes

  • Hôtel Bab Mansour

    Meknes

    The Bab Mansour is a fairly generic midrange hotel that seems to be going to seed. That said, it’s very convenient to the train station, and it has…

  • Hotel Les Tilleuls

    Ifrane

    The cheapest hotel in Ifrane has been welcoming guests since 1935. The entrance and bar as well as two floors of rooms have been renovated, but there's…

    Ville Nouvelle

    Rooms at this budget place were being redone in 2019. Most rooms have bathrooms, but even those without a shower have their own sinks. Many rooms come…

    Sefrou

    This pretty garden with trees and a fountain is home to three pleasant rooms. One of them is upstairs, with a bathroom on the ground floor. Zubeida will…
