OK, I read all these reviews. I don't know what the other reviewers were comparing Hotel Balima to - a soup kitchen? a homeless shelter? the bench at a bus station? If those are the alternatives, then yes, the Hotel Balima will be a nice change for you. I don't think I'm overstating it that this place is a complete... more

The hotel has a type of old world charm. The rooms are relatively large, some with excellent views, but with very dated, but not uncomfortable furniture. Located very close to the main train station, across the street from the Moroccan Parliament, and on a main thoroughfare which leads down into a pedestrian market, which also eventually leads to the beach... more

We turned up a about 8pm after a long drive from Essouira, and were pleased they could accomodate us without reservation that night. The staff were a bit glum. We had a meal at the restaurant that night out of sheer laziness - regretted it, poor quality food and service and were given the bill without being offered dessert or... more

We asked for another one, and was assigned one marginally better. We made it clear to the clerk that we were heavily jetlagged and close to a total mental and physical... more

We stayed in Hotel Balima for 2 days. The main reason why we choose this hotel was the central situation only a few minutes walk from train station. It is also not far away from the medina (10-15 minutes by feet). Hotel Balima is situated at a big road but it never felt noisy. The first room we got was... more

We spent one night in the Balima Hotel Rabat, and it was decent (though perhaps undeserving of three stars). The room was a bit dated but at least in a charming way. The desk clerk and other staff were friendly, but our waiter in the restaurant was arrogant and unwelcoming. The location is exceptional for arriving and departing from the... more
