Hotel Ouarzazate Le Tichka

“Value for money ”

Booked one night here, ended up staying three nights. Nice hotel at the edge of town, restaurants and attractions on walking distance. The name of the hotel was a little confusing; google maps has the exact location, but the sign above the gate says “Riad salam”, staff couldn’t explain why. The hotel has everything you need, very friendly staff, swimming pools, a bar (they serve alcohol), restaurant, laundry service and so on. The place is a bit dated and the rooms are noisy, but it’s clean. I think it’s the best you can get in this price range.

“Very old”

The hotel has a good location, very close to the fortress and the medina. The staff are polite and helpful. Modest but decent breakfast. However, the hotel is very old, not clean enough, the air conditioning did not work in my room and it was very stuffy. Bad wi-fi.

“Nice rooms, good service, poor pool area - faded grandeur”

This is a well located tourist hotel, only 10 minutes walk from the Kasbah and town centre. And very reasonably priced. The service on the whole was excellent (apart from the grumpy lady cooking the breakfast pancakes!). Our room in the older part of the hotel beyond the pool, set above a courtya… more

This is a well located tourist hotel, only 10 minutes walk from the Kasbah and town centre. And very reasonably priced. The service on the whole was excellent (apart from the grumpy lady cooking the breakfast pancakes!). Our room in the older part of the hotel beyond the pool, set above a courtyard, was really lovely. Spacious, cool and loved the stain glass windows. Very clean with a fridge for our water. We joined in with the buffet dinner which was termendous value, and the salads were delicious. Felt slightly overwhelmed by 2 huge groups staying at the hotel the same night but we were allowed to sit in a separate part of the dining room from them which was good. However, they took over the whole pool area after dinner and there was not one seat to be had outside anywhere. Sadly this hotel is really let down by the pool area. Every cushion on every sun lounger and chair was split, faded or ripped - all in a really poor state of repair. Some of the sunbeds were broken too. The step ladder going into the pool was wobbly and felt like it was going to come off, and at 4pm in the afternoon the pool looked dirty and was the coldest pool of our whole trip. It's a shame as it looks nothing like the photos, but wouldn't take too much to upgrade it all a bit. Overall - this is okay for a quick stop over, the service was good, but the pool area was a let down.
