Moevenpick Hotel And Casino

Would never return, would never recommend, terrible value.

The public areas were clean and very grand. However, once you go up the elevator to your rooms, quite another story. The second floor hall carpet was filthy and encrusted with unknown substances in several areas. It was quite unbelievable. The room was tired and in need of detailing. Drapes were in disrepair. Tile flooring looked dirty and was in need of complete replacement. One good point was that the sheets were quite clean and the bed was comfortable. TV worked well. Bathroom was not the cleanest; for some reason the toilet water was brownish. Bathrobe was scratchy and old. The doormen were very nice. This hotel is so far away from the city center. Also, the hotel desk clerks were not friendly in the least. Oh yes, they gave me a crummy view and they tried to make me think I had only booked for one person (fortunately I had my paperwork to disprove that deception), and they tried to get me to upgrade by saying they had given me a smoking floor. Their deception was so transparent and vile. I wouldn’t have given them another dime extra. I didn’t eat in their hotel, nor did I frequent their bars. When I get treated poorly by hotel staff, I’m pretty sure their kitchen people must be surly too. It was too rainy and too late to make a big deal of it. If the weather had been better, I would have been out of there in a heartbeat. Made my last day in Morocco a real let down.

Traveler's tip on local attractions

The rest of Morocco was so much more amazing and wonderful than Tanger. The food was so much better in Marrakech, Fes, Essaouira, Casablanca and Rabat. It does look like there’s a lot of development going on. I hope it improves this city and makes the hotels more competitive.
