Hotels Near Mosquée AÂRAFAT in Casablanca

New hotel. About 15 miles from the airport. Have stayed there twice for our trip (coming and leaving Morocco) Rest of family staying day before their flight out of Casa, (that's how much we liked this place). Staff will bend over backwards for you. Rooms are good size. 2nd stay was in suite b/c it was only room left. Pull out bed was okay but wished mattress was bit thicker. Otherwise, beds are quite comfortable. Recommend having breakfast-outstanding with traditional Morocco foods along with omelettes made to order.. Nice good size pool and gym. Outside of hotel, there isn't much to walk to. Much construction going on, so this will likely change. There is parking under hotel. Very narrow entrance to get into garage and out. If you have small car -no problem, but be careful -it's narrow. Would stay here again.

Positive: While we were waiting for our room to be ready, we were served with complementary fresh juice, and later on with Moroccan tea. The location is great because it is right next to a mall, so you have a lot of options to eat, shop and also an option for currency exchange. Taxis were readily available from the front of the hotel. It is also close to the train station, Casa Voyageurs. After we complained about the breakfast on our second day, the next day breakfast was good and back to normal. We could leave the luggage at the hotel on our checkout day. Staff was friendly and cooperative throughout our stay. Special shout out goes to Ummaimah, Mariam, Fahad and Reeta. They also offered us complementary tea after we checked out and while we waited in the lobby. Negative: We had to wait 10-12 minutes before our room was ready, and this was already within the check-in timings (we arrived around 15:40). I would expect the room to be ready when I arrive. The breakfast experience at the second day was bad because we had to wait 20-25 minutes before we could eat anything as everything was finished (we arrived for breakfast at 09:45). Kitchen staff was either very less or too slow to meet the requirements of the guests, which were not many when we arrived. Whenever we made a request, it was entertained, but we had to chase them for it. Toiletries were below average.

The room is large, the bed is comfortable, the bathroom is spacious, hot water comes out of the shower quickly, the service staff is polite and responsive, the wifi speed is OK, the location is not out of the way, the surrounding is safe, and you can find a restaurant within 300-500 meters' walk. Disadvantages: There are many types of breakfast but the freshness is not good. Butter, cheese, and yogurt are easy to deteriorate when stored at room temperature, and some of them seem to have mold spots. Too much perfume was sprayed in the room, the windows could not be opened, and the bathroom exhaust fan did not work. Therefore, the quality and smell of the indoor air were not comfortable. The windows are covered with a semi-permeable film with spots, which blocks the view and prevents the view of the city that should be seen from the upper floors.

I recently stayed at the Radisson Casablanca Citadel for a four-night business trip. While there were some positives, unfortunately, the negatives outweighed them, leading to a less-than-satisfactory experience. The Good: - Smooth Check-In:The check-in process was quick and efficient, allowing me to settle into my room without any hassle. - Comfortable Room:My room was comfortable and met my expectations for a business trip. - Excellent Breakfast & Friendly Staff:The breakfast was truly a highlight – excellent variety and quality. The staff at the ground floor restaurant, both during breakfast and dinner, were incredibly friendly and professional, making me feel welcome every day. The Bad: 1. Rooftop Bar Noise: If you're staying on the 8th floor or higher, prepare for noise from the rooftop bar until midnight. It’s disruptive enough to ”bounce you out of bed.” I would recommend avoiding these floors unless you plan to enjoy the bar yourself. 2. Construction Noise: If you're trying to relax or work from your room during the day, expect disturbance from the large construction project next door. This was a constant source of distraction during my stay. 3. Unreliable Laundry Service: The laundry service was a major disappointment. Despite dropping off my laundry early Tuesday morning (before 9am as requested), it wasn’t delivered by the promised 7pm. After following up multiple times, I was told it would arrive between 9-10pm. By the time I returned to the hotel at 10pm, they casually informed me that it wouldn’t arrive until the next morning, which disrupted an important pre-breakfast meeting. The lack of care or apology from the staff was particularly frustrating. Given the wide range of hotel options in Casablanca, I will not be returning to the Radisson Casablanca Citadel. For business travelers, the issues with noise and service make this hotel difficult to recommend.

This hotel is deceptive. The ground floor and lobby is quite nice but the other floors and the rooms are not. The beds were clean and comfortable, the room was decent, and the shower was nice. I did see what looked like a blood stain on the bathroom wall though. The breakfast was good and had eggs, sausage, beans, sweet and other bread and rolls, coffee, hot chocolate, orange juice, chicken, slices, and cheese available. It's located right on a tram line and taxis are going by so the time, yet it's a relatively quiet street. That's the good news, now for the bad. Most of the electrical outlets in the room did not work. The rooms let in all the noise from the hallway and you can hear phones ringing etc. the elevator buttons on each floor don't always work to summon the elevator. There is no safe in the room, and I felt like we needed one. The wifi stopped working often and was quite slow at times. The tap water is not drinkable. The orange juice at the buffet breakfast tasted a bit like Tang. Although cheap, I don't know that it was worth the price.

Hotel facilities are old and the air conditioning is very loud. The hotel is located close to the city center and is convenient for travel. The service staff is more enthusiastic, but the efficiency is not high. Because there are two hotels on the same street with close names, we also had an oolong, and the taxi was sent directly to the other door. Forced to drag luggage for two or three hundred meters. Remind friends to be careful.

I stayed at this hotel on the recommendation of my friends. It really is as good as they say. Everything was great. The hotel is very well maintained and clean, the beds are very comfortable, the rooms are convenient and modern, the food was great. Especially the room service staff were very kind, helpful and smiling. Food always arrives hot and all delicious. For this reason, I ate my dinner at the hotel every day of my stay. Next time I will choose to stay in this hotel again. Thanks for everything.

The room is very spacious. You can see the old city and mosque in the distance outside the window. It is very close to the train station, so it is very convenient to take a train from the entrance or go to other cities. There are some constructions around and it will be a bit noisy during the day. The hotel is I only ate in the restaurant once and came back late. However, the food was served so slowly that I almost fell asleep. Even though I was given two mojitos, it was still a bit underwhelming for this level.

When I arrived at the hotel I was met at my taxi from the hotel porter, Abdeljalil. He kindly took my baggage and walked with me to reception where Youssef politely and professionally greeted me at reception quickly checked me in and welcomed me to the hotel. I made my way to the room where I have found a clean, well ventilated and modern room with plenty of space for a family, though also an awesome covetable desk that I love the design of. There is a beautiful view from the window over the entire city and many staff members on hand, happily able to provide any assistance needed. While only I have interacted with these two particular staff members, I have seen other guests interact with staff in the bar, restaurant and guest services, where staff appear to take pride and happiness in serving guests to an exceptionally high standard. I also ran in to some other guests who frequently stay at this hotel due to the great experiences in the past. While it is only a four star hotel, compared to the five stars in the city, the hotel is in a beautiful location and having stayed at other five star properties, this hotel actually provides a better level of service over many of the more expensive hotels nearby. The room is great to sleep in and work from, with staff members able to assist guests in obtaining services outside of the hotel with established and trusted partners such as local spas or driving services. For the price paid, I would happily stay here again and recommend it to any other guests. A beautiful hotel, very well managed and perfect for the majority of guest visits.

This is honestly the worst hotel that I have ever stayed at, the rooms are dirty, the beds are filthy and the bathroom had an uncomfortable odor. The staff are rude and we were told at night that we had to switch rooms, they refused to tell us why. If you plan on communicating in English with the staff, you need to consider another hotel as they don't have the necessary language skills to communicate in English. I also wanted to make a complaint about a member of the staff for the way I was treated and he refused to give me his name. The only positive about this hotel is it's decent location, however, there are several other hotels really close by to consider and I wish that I had picked another one. A few tips for you guys that still decide to book this hotel despite all of the above is to not use the taxis in front of the hotel as they try their very best to rip you off, there are more taxis around the corner by the Casa Port train station, use those instead. If you are able to skip the hotel breakfast, you should do so, the selection is poor and the food tastes really bland, they also water down the juice. There are some nicer places to have breakfast around the corner at the Casa Port train station.
