I had no problems with this hotel. My sister and I shared a room and parents had a room next door. The rooms were clean and spacious enough and cleaned everyday. It's in a great location opposite the Koutoubia Mosque and the main square is on the left which is a 5 minute walk away. I booked all my tours... More

We slipped in here for a quick meal in the late afternoon on our last day. Our waiter was very friendly and he brought us everything we needed including ice for our red wine! We only had a pizza but would reccomend here for a good honestly priced meal with views from above.

The market and old city to the left, a great view overlooking the central mosk, parks and the new city to the right, so that's all great. Just too bad breakfast, rooms and other facilities are "just ok" and without a swimming pool or quiet rooms, it makes the slow service just that much worse. I guess you could do... More

Well, what can I say about this hotel? Let's try the positive first: the location was very good, being a 2 minute walk from the main square and the upstairs terrace was a good place to have breakfast, if a bit bracing at this time of year. Plus for £50 for 2 nights isn't that bad I suppose... Now down... More

The hotel is decent (1.5-2 star). If you are patient and can tip 10 dirham to the bell boy, things can be fixed. When we got our room, there was no shower curtain, the heater did not work and no towels. We got the room changed and there were still issues. I tipped the bell boy and got all this... More

I stayed at the Islane with a bunch of friends at the beginning of December. It could hardly be better placed for tourism, across the road from Marrakech's landmark Koutoubia minaret, a couple of minutes' walk from the teeming Jemaa el Fna and the Souks. We were politely welcomed and I was led through long corridors to a large dark... More

Probably was a decent hotel in its day, everything is looking a bit tired now. Cleanliness was fine but our bathroom was damp, as the extractor fan was broken. Toilet didn't flush very well and the water from the tap was very slow. We booked a double room but we got 2 single beds pushed together that drifted apart in... More

I stayed with a group of seven friends in Islane for two nights and my overall judgement of the hotel is fine. The location is perfect (right across the street from the Koutoubia-mosque and a five minute walk to Djemna el-Fna), with an excellent view from the roofterrasse. The breakfast was normal for what we experienced during our stay in... More

We stayed here for two nights and didn't sleep very much. The beds were old, the airconditioning was only blowing air, not cooling it. We asked the staff to repair it but they didn't so we left the windows open to get cooler air in from outside (amagine staying here in summer...). The showerdrain was blocked so the shower floaded.... More
