My husband and kids (ages 10 and 13) originally had a reservation here for one night, but decided to stay 3 because it was so relaxing! The pool was refreshing, and the rooms were quiet and comfortable. It was a nice place to hang out after the bustle of Marrakech.

We had two neighboring rooms. The rooms were comfortable. The toilet is separate from the sink/shower room, which is kind-of nice.

The view from the restaurant patio of the Taourirt kasbah was stunning, and the patio itself was nice. I wasn't bowled over by the food (it was decent quality but nothing on the menu seemed particularly tantalizing), but my husband thought it was very good, and especially liked the complimentary olives. The breakfast had a pretty big variety of food to choose from.

This hotel seems nicer and more intimate than the Ibis next door (also Accor-owned/managed, though the pool at the Ibis is bigger/nicer.) I thought the Mercure was an excellent value -- less than $100/night/room. I don't think one could find as nice a hotel with patio restaurant, pool, nice view, anywhere in the US for that price. It would be double at least.

There is one (free of charge) internet computer near the lobby and pool.

One (minor) complaint about the Mercure was that the toilets seemed to fill for an extraordinarily long time and sounded like they used a tremendous amount of water. I thought this was odd considering the desert location of the hotel.

“Weird Hotel”

This is a rather odd hotel. There is nothing really wrong with it, but it is rather overpriced. The common areas are pretty and the pool is nice. The rooms are typical Moroccan (not in terms of design, but in terms of their cleanliness/functionality), they are a bit over the top in terms of style. The restaraunt food is typical Accor.. pretty underwhelming. The big problem is the doors-- they are impossible to open from the outside and my brother got locked in his room and had to go out on the deck to get free!

7/7 found this review helpful

I was somewhat reluctant to book a hotel without many reviews, but gave it a chance and was very pleased with the Mercure Ouarzazate. It's a large, modern hotel (but one with character) on top of a hill overlooking the main tourist sight in town (the kasbah). In fact, the hotel has the best views of the kasbah in town. While the rooms are small and a bit odd (no bedside tables), each one has a balcony and a modern and clean bathroom. The breakfast buffet is fantastic, and can be eaten either in the restaurant (which has a glass wall that is also one side of the swimming pool, like an aquarium -- very cool) or on the terrace overlooking the kasbah. The front desk staff is wonderful and helpful, and the hammam is clean and usually empty. And the hotel has a chic bar as well. It's an incredible value and a fantastic homebase for touring the surrounding area.

One of my favourite places in Morocco, this former Club Med is beautiful. It’s modern, clean, has a great pool and décor, good food and wonderful service. in any other city you’d be paying a lot to stay here.
