This hotel is quirky and full of surprises. Built with a lot of love by a local family, it offers good value for money. The hotel was recommended to us by an expat. We were not disappointed. Breakfast was good and they made extra efforts to attend to our needs. The room was spacious and comfortable and the bathroom immaculately clean. I would recommend it.

Very nice place ( for us was a bit difficult to find it in the first night- is a bit of the street- GPS could not find the street name and directed us far, far away from the real address).When we arrive the desk crew was very polite, the men even deliver my bag to the room- what was very nice. The room was very clean and had conditioner. The room was cleaned every day and every day the towels was changed- for the amount of money I did not expect them to do it every day so I was very surprised and happy. The breakfast for me was just excellent. Fresh, very tasty buns, typical Moroccan pancakes. Four different kind of french croissants, two kind of homemade cakes, butter, jam, boiled eggs, Moroccan ham, coffee with cold or hot milk, Moroccan tea, fresh juices. I could not believed when I heard women complaint that there is not an omelet. For the money I spent for the accommodation I expected a really small breakfast and in this hotel the breakfast is fab. During our stay we went for the trip and two nights we slept in different places where we saw the dirt and poor breakfast served. In Marrakesh house you will eat a big, tasty breakfast and you will sleep in clean place with helpful staff around. I highly recommended the hotel to everyone who is looking for clean- I mean really clean place. Wi-fi is better close to desk and in the dinning room. There is a pool, but we did not use it.

Just returned from 8 days at this hotel. As mentioned, it is located on the outskirts of the city, approximately 5kms from the Medina area and Jemma El Fna. We managed to get a Grand Taxi from the airport for Dh 150 (after some haggling!). The difference between a Grand Taxi and a Petit Taxi is (in theory) the former is shared with others whilst the latter is dedicated to your journey; however, this doesn't always work in practice!There is not a huge amount to do in the immediate area of the hotel - a few restaurants and a very nice patisserie. The hotel advise that a taxi to the Medina area will cost Dh 15-20 but taxi costs do vary depending on the time of day (increases in the evening). The drawback for the return journey (the minimum we haggled the driver down to was Dh 30) was that none of our taxi drivers understood where the hotel was, even with the hotel card!! A little understanding of French helped. By far the easiest ( and cheapest) way to get to and from Jemma El Fna was on the No1 bus which stops about 100m from the hotel entrance and costs Dh 4 per person, one way (recommend keeping some smaller change). However, beware that the buses are v crowded during rush hours. The journey takes about 25 mins. The hotel itself is well maintained and both the front of house and house cleaning staff were excellent; nothing was too much problem for them and most spoke excellent English. The room (401) was functional and clean - a minor observation was that there were no shelves in the bathroom and shower to store toiletries. We bought some bowls and used those! Also, take some coat hangers with you! The room had a good sized balcony. we had a minor problem with some water leaking down from the room above but this was sorted quickly and efficiently by maintenance. Downstairs, there is plenty of seating area in little alcoves and a larger breakfast/dining room. Again, a small observation but this room was extremely cold first thing in the morning and most people came down in overcoats! Perhaps a bit more heating during the winter months? The lift was welcome after a long day shopping! Internet connection at the hotel is sporadic to say the least. We had none in the room and only a few places downstairs (the best location was standing immediately outside of the hotel). Perhaps the owner could install a few more routers to give better coverage? Also, few places to catch the sun (there is a small sun terrace on level 1 where you can get the sun from 10am to 1.25pm). The roof would have been ideal to get the sun all day but hasn't been developed.A quick note on the trips offered by the hotel..........We did the Ourika Valley waterfalls. A nice day but quite expensive for what it was (and it excluded lunch). We found that the tour prices in the Medina were better value so perhaps worth shopping around? On another day, we had a DIY hiking day, arranging our own taxi to Imlil (after haggling once again!) from the Sidi Momoun taxi rank. We paid Dh 400 for a dedicated Grand Taxi and the driver took us there, waited for us to finish our 7 hour trek and then took us back to Marrakech (and you don't pay until you return to the city). Well worth it (the alternative is the bus which is cheaper but overcrowded and much slower).Overall, a good break. The hotel is well run and the staff are brilliant. Can't do much about the location but if the internet and bathroom storage was sorted out, it would have moved it from very good to excellent.

I spent 3 nights at this charming hotel from 1st to 4th December arriving at around 1 pm and received a welcoming mint tea. I was given a local map by the lovely lady on reception together with advice about taxis and busses. Really you should only pay around 100Dh for the Taxi from the airport during daytime - I paid more than double that. Taxi into town during the day should be 20 Dh and 40 at night. My room was comfortable and equipped with a small fridge and air con unit that also provided heating. The bathroom was clean although the shower was leaking - but this was repaired when I mentioned it.I asked advice about dinner venues and was told about restaurant called Zelig which was really good and a cultural show which was also good (but partly outside and therefore cold and I hadn’t brought the right clothing with me).Breakfast at the hotel was fine - pastries, boiled eggs, coffee etc, although in my second morning I had breakfast at L’Adresse cafe which was very good. There is an amazing bakery on the corner near the hotel - Amoud - which is well worth a visit. There is a spar opposite McDonald’s - Spa Estheticism which is very good. There is a bar at the hotel which serves a limited range of alcoholic drinks - lager and some spirits. Overall this hotel offers really good value for money and I would go back again.

We went to this hotel for 7days in october. There was 7 of us 2 children under the age if 3.staff were great very friendly gave good advise and catered for my 2 young children. Rooms were cleaned everyday. Domestic staff were nice. Hotel was clean and had very rustic look to it great features. Pool was always cold so didnt use it. Breakfast is the only thing i wasnt happy with as it was the same food everyday and i couldnt eat it. FOUAD one of the staff was a very friendly happy and helpful person he was good with my kids especially maria. Anything we needed he would help with. Thanks to all the staff Hajiba, fouad, simo, hassania, and mohammed for making our stay very pleasent and enjoyable.

Travelling alone, I was unsure about which hotel to go for out of the myriad available in Marrakech, but I was super-pleased with my stay Hotel Marrakech House.As soon as I checked in, I was greeted by really welcoming staff who showed me to my cosy single room with a double bed. Two days later I was upgraded to a double room, which consisted of a very comfortable bed, a balcony, sizeable bathroom with large mirror (with an overlight - great for doing make-up). The double room had great storage, a safe, and was cleaned every day and replenished with clean towels and bathroom sundries - the cleaning staff are completely approachable and ever-so friendly.Breakfasts, while a bit limited in food options, were more than suitable if you like a morning coffee/juice and pastry! Traditional crepes are also available and I highly recommend having more than one of these!Dinners were delicious; meals ranged from lamb tagine, meatball tagine, Moroccan Pastilla, super-tasty lentil soup, an amazing homemade pizza and more - all finished with a refreshing mint tea and (the tastiest!) Moroccan fekkas biscuits. Friday was a treat as I was served cous cous, meat and vegetables with an accompanying soup - a traditional Friday dish in Morocco.The hotel is in Gueliz - a more modern part of Marrakech - and you can get a bus (the no.1) for 4 dirhams to the shopping area in Gueliz, and that same bus goes as far as the Jemaa el-Fna square too, which is handy. You can get a taxi but the prices vary depending on your driver (I paid 50 dirhams one time, 15 another) but the bus is so frequent and it doesn't take long at all. It's also not a long journey to and from the airport - 20 mins or so.Overall, nothing was too much for the staff at Hotel Marrakech House: arranging to serve dinner a bit earlier on my last night upon request; printing off my boarding pass; suggesting excursions, spa treatments, places to visit and how to get to them. At all times, I felt safe, comfortable and was sad to leave. And the interior decor is the icing on the cake - stunning, traditional Moroccan design at every glance. Highly recommended and I'd star here again in a heartbeat!

When in Marrakech you need to have a balance, the Marrakech House is a mid ranged priced hotel, we paid £25 per night, yes the hotel is a little dated but the room was a great size, the power shower would knock you off your feet. Breakfast at UK / European standards was poor, but this is Marrakech so in fact it was a very good breakfast, the normal bread and jam an Marrakech breakfast was supplemented with pancakes and the odd Danish pastry so an effort is being made. It’s a little out of town which has its pros and cons but the local taxis are great. Don’t let the odd poor review of taxi drivers ripping you off, turn you away from using them. We used them three times a day for a week and had great friendly service, never metered but the driver telling us to give what we could afford. (No average we paid 50Dr (£4) for a 20 minute ride into the centre) or it’s an hours walk which we did twice and felt very safe at all time, once was 11pm at night.If you want European high standards at a budget Marrakech price then yes your be writing a poor review, but if you want a clean, comfortable room at a great price then I’d say go for it.

We paid about £22 a night for bed and breakfast so did not expect much. We were pleasantly surprised. The room was a great size with a separate seating area and much needed air con. Pool was quite small but more than sufficient for a dip. Staff were really friendly and would always try to help. Location is a bit out of town but only a 20 Dirham taxi ride to the centre. The number 1 bus goes from main road to main square, I'm not one for buses but was so easy it was daft not to use it. Armoud Bakers about 25 metres away was just divine and proved a great place for snacks.Yes it did have a couple of issues. The shower flooded easily, breakfast was basic but adequate but again what can you expect? When you consider everything you had to give it 5*, I would recommend to use as a base away from the madness of the city.
