Hotel Islane

The hotel is in an amazing location - central Marrakech. We requested a room with a good view and they fulfilled the request! We were overlooking the Katoubia Mosque which was beautiful, and surprisingly the room wasn’t loud despite the main road outside. The price was great for our budget and breakfast was included. Also you eat breakfast on the terrace (top floor of the hotel) so get to overlook the mosque as you eat. The view is amazing and staff were so amazingly helpful when we wanted info about day trips, buses etc. The man at the desk even rang our tour operator to check everything was ok as he was running a little late to collect us for our day trip, and when our air conditioning stopped working, they came to help immediately and got it fixed straight away. The hotel also had a money exchange in it which was helpful.

The wifi is pretty poor at the best of times, and even then it only works in the lobby if it works at all. Nowhere to sit in the lobby just to chill out and wait or to use the wifi. Definitely would help a lot if the wifi reached the rooms. Limited breakfast options (can’t complain much as it was included and there was plenty of food - but it was the same food daily with no range). Also our double bed was two singles pushed together so one of us often ended up in the gap.
