Oct 2024

The hotel was well positioned and had a lovely garden and pool area. We had a junior suite which was very comfortable with balcony and good view. For a hotel of its status and daily charges, we were however, very disappointed with the limited restaurant choices. The pool bar/ restaurant was fine but the dinner options were very limited. We also did not like the digital menus which were difficult to load and use. We arrived from the airport at around 10.30am on the 5th October but were not able to access our room until 3pm. There was no apology offered or any attempt made to make us feel at home. I consider that this attitude was not in keeping with the perceived services offered by a 5 star hotel. The restaurant and bar service on the other hand was generally very good. In summary if asked, I could not recommend the hotel to any of my friends and would not choose to stay there again if I returned to Marrakech.

4.1

Sep 2024

The dining experience was poor. We waited over an hour for low-quality meals, with a bottle of water costing 100 MAD instead of 7 MAD outside, feeling exploitative. The airport transfer was quoted at 500 MAD for a short ride, while a third-party service charged only 100 MAD. At checkout, I was wrongly billed 172 MAD for minibar items, leading to an awkward confrontation. Staff behavior was also problematic. Soukaina, the reception manager, was rude and dismissive, even laughing at me publicly. Additionally, my outside water was confiscated, which felt exploitative, especially in 90-degree heat. The hotel itself was not up to five-star standards, appearing worn and poorly maintained. Overall, my stay was marred by rude service, exploitative pricing, and a lack of care. I cannot recommend Sofitel Marrakech and urge potential guests to consider other options.

The property is very nice, the recepcionist were not so nice to welcome us, I asked for a luxury room with 2 beds, never change us for one bed, the bedroom did not have coffe machine, I asked every day for it, never have it, and we have the last room of the building, 7 min walk to the restaurant for breakfast

Mar 2024

Stunning building and is high end luxury in the lobbies and stunning grounds, but room was very basic compared to the expected standards. Staff super friendly, respectful and helpful. Bed was so great and comfortable. Just felt for the price and expected 5 star experience it fell short of the mark for me.

Outstanding! Although the property is impeccable, the staff of the Sofitel is what makes this hotel a wonderful and memorable stay. Hachim at the concierge desk took care to answer all of our queries in detail (and we had many!); Nouredine at the main restaurant remembered our orders and provided top notch service. We will definitely return in the near future.

Fantastic hotel near the Old Town of Marrakech. The rooms were huge and well laid out. The staff were friendly and courteous, and the gardens were a delighted. A beautiful hotel.

Sofitel should be ashamed to have their name on this business. The service needs a full turnover or major training, at the very least. It is a very noisy hotel, including them doing industrial carpet cleaning at 1:30 am. We had to move rooms 3 times and never got a decent night’s sleep. If you have a choice, go elsewhere. You will thank me for it.

Oct 2023

Overall, the service was good. However, the rooms were overpriced for an outdated style, very small, and poorly lit. The room quality was not up to par; we actually considered leaving after checking into the hotel.

I have going to Sofitel since 8 years and I could not believe the terrible experience with had me and my son. It used to be a Lovely hotel with great service but I must admit that the level of service has changed a lot! This is definitely not a 5 star level of service! I booked a Junior Suite 6 weeks in advance and specifically requested a beautiful view on the garden and Swimming pool so I can check my son. Instead we had a junior suite very dark, I felt in a cave with view on a concrete roof of the parking. I mediately requested another room. We arrived at 5.30 pm after a long plane journey and my son was looking forward to jump in the pool. Instead it took 2 hours and half to check in o finally placed us in a decent room they charged us 1,500 Dirham extra per night! We were there to relax on holiday but instead we had the laundry service knocking at our door and stepped in directly inside our room without our permission at 8am! And to make sure we were not going back to relax then they called at 8.15 am to explain why they entered our room without permission! This happened also in the evening when I showered before getting ready for dinner and I heard voices in my room. It was the room service checking from inside my room if I needed something ! And just to wrapped up the quality of service: I made sure our luggage and taxi from the hotel (which is 3 times the price of a normal taxi so you would expect high service.) were ready exactly at 4.45 pm to take us to the air

The property is quite nice… the arrival is beautiful and after a long trip it was nice to finally arrive home for the next 10 days! The hotel staff is welcoming and hotel smells great all setting a great start to the vacation! The room is pleasantly appointed although it is getting a little dated and will need some refreshing soon! However everything is clean although the rug appears to have a stains it is still ok. We also took the option of including the breakfast buffet with the room! I this trip I booked two rooms … the first few mornings are great with a well organized breakfast room allowing to have breakfast outside on the lanai covered from the hot sun… the breakfast buffet is well set up .. as this room is expressly made for this with orderly breakfast stations and something for every taste! The service is great and very attentive! This unfortunately does not last for our entire stay as the breakfast room is made unavailable to guests as a large group is coming in and headed to the hotel and will now be exclusively using this location! Breakfast for guests is moved to a second level which is clearly not prepared for the breakfast crowd.. interior room is somewhat limited and outside patio is not equipped with only 4 or 6 sun umbrellas leaving most people simply sitting in the direct sun for breakfast… although the staff are trying to make this work the buffet is oddly set up, things are not tidy and tables dirty! Not to the standard of this hotel chain!

Hotel was very nice. Adil greated us at the front desk and was very welcoming, went over the top to make us feel welcome. Only down side was the strange rule of no outside food or drinks - including milk for our 1 year old.

The hotel is in a great location the rooms were spacious and comfortable. There is a good selection at the breakfast buffet the pool and gardens are delightful and the food at the poolside restaurant was excellent. Unfortunately the hotel is let down by the reception staff. I had requested rooms with a view which meant a high floor prior to arrival .We were given ground floor rooms on arrival and had to move the following day. Reception staff did not deal with the request or any request well.Their attitude was haughty and unhelpful.

How does the Chairman of Accor sleep at night knowing that this property represented the best of his group and tries to competes with extraordinary properties in this condition? Marrakech is a top destination with world class hotels, and this is the best he has to offer? Its embarassing.

The hotel was very nice and luxurious walking in. Check in was very pleasant with tea brought out. The hotel itself is incredibly large with several pools, restaurants, etc. The room was typical of a large hotel. There was a balcony. Unfortunately, ours faced a garden next to a large road, so it was very noisy. There wasnt anything outstanding or unique about the room, but it was clean. The property was nice, as was the staff.

Upon arrival we were being pushed into a room upgrade on the old side with butler.. upon viewing & refusing we were made to wait 3 hours for our rooms on the Spa & Lounge side (as per booking)... reception staff seemed extremely put out that we turned down upgrade... We had a suite on the 5th floor with stunning views.. however the cleanliness leaves much to be desired.. they say “yes” to everything but do nothing! Breakfast & staff absolutely wonderful... especially the lovely juice maker gentleman! Big thumbs up for my special order juice! Will I return, I’m afraid not!
