“Great roof top view of the city!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

The hotel was lovely and clean, the rooms were quiet. The room was a little small on first look but was ample for the 4 days I stayed. Staff were friendly and would happily help if I needed anything.

Breakfast on the first day was OK - I had expected a buffet breakfast but there was none. Food was still offered but minimal. The next morning and for the duration of my stay there was a buffet breakfast and individual orders for scrambled eggs etc...was still available. I believe it was due to the amount of guests in the hotel when we had first arrived.

Good location, outside of the Medina, so it wasn't noisy. The Medina is within walking distance, and can easily get a taxi for a small fare.
There is a tour bus stop right opposite the Hotel and a few minutes walk is some lovely restaurants!!

Marrakech is a wonderful place to visit. Full of culture and so much to see and do! I didn't want to leave...

“SkyBar: great view, shame about the service”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

NB: My review is of the rooftop bar, not the hotel accommodation.

On the basis of a TripAdvisor forum discussion, we selected the rooftop bar at the Renaissance for a drink in Marrakech this past Saturday night. I live in Morocco and prefer to use TripAdvisor to praise places I have enjoyed, but on this occasion I was extremely disappointed, as the setting looked so promising and I have seen the place recommended in magazines, etc.

We were not offered the 'tapas' mentioned on the hotel website; the staff did not seem to know the menu (our waitress didn't know what brands of rum they had); I ordered a mojito which came without any alcohol in it (this was denied by staff at first but actually confirmed later) and, while we were admiring the view (surely the reason to be on a rooftop?), our drinks were cleared away although we hadn't finished them. I took our complaints up with the staff and we were offered replacement drinks but I didn't want to stay a moment longer by that point. Although I expressed my dissatisfaction with having to pay in full for drinks we weren't able to finish (and they are not cheap), there was no budging them. In short, the view is great, but it's a shame about the service.

Room Tip: NB: My review is of the rooftop bar, not the hotel accommodation.

“SKY BAR FLOOR 6”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 17, 2012 via mobile


I like the top floor of this hotel the bar on floor 6 is worth a visit when the sun is going down and seeing the Marrakech from the 6th floor.
Drinks are ok, slightly expensive. But defo recco to visit when in Marrakech.

“Excellent hotel...........& great staff!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 29, 2012

We have just spent 3 nights in an executive room @ the Renaissance for my wife's birthday & would certainly recommend it as a great place to stay, & very central. the decor has a clean, cool retro feel (very 70's chic) with a cubed design & white leather in the rooms & dining areas. The drinks are a little expensive in the amazing Sky Bar, but it is a city so you probably would expect to pay these prices. Rooms are spacious, very well decorated & designed & the bathroom was really smart.The only negative was the fact we were staying mid-week & each night the basement techno disco was annoyingly loud & you could hear it from floor 4 downwards. We are not ones to complain as we have been on "clubbing holidays" but this really didn't fit in with the whole ambience, so i hope the Renaissance can do something about this as every night was like being in a techno nightclub! Apart from that staff were very friendly & helpful, breakfast was really good, especially the Omlette station, the restaurants were quite resonable & good quality & Hassan on the reception desk was excellent & very helpful.

Room Tip: Try a room on the top floors to avoid disco noise
