4/10
We had a very mixed experience at Hotel Atlas.
Before our arrival, someone from the hotel contacted us asking if we needed airport pickup. They offered a taxi for 15 euros (150DH), which I knew was far above the local rate of 30–50DH. I declined, but despite this, a driver still showed up at the airport. The driver barely spoke English and claimed the ride was “free,” but then said I had to pay at the hotel. After refusing, I ended up speaking with the hotel owner directly over the phone and they lowered the price. It felt like a scam — the kind where they send a driver anyway to make it difficult to say no.
That said, the owner helped us the next day when we couldn’t find our camel tour guide. The guide had apparently contacted the hotel, and the owner kindly told us where to go.
The room itself was okay. Our room was on the rooftop, and while the hot shower worked and the toilet was fine, the area got quite noisy at night with people talking and eating until around 11 PM.
Honestly, I’m not sure how to feel about the experience overall. Some parts were helpful, but others felt uncomfortable and pushy.
FYI, there’s a local bus from the airport to Jemaa el-Fnaa that costs just 30DH one way. The bus driver might say different things or make it confusing, but it’s 30DH per person. The bus comes about every 30 minutes, so it’s a good budget-friendly option. If you’re planning a round trip from the airport, make sure to confirm everything clearly in advance. Hope that helps!
