It felt really bohemian, with a little table and chairs on a balcony overlooking the square below. Just a block from the harbor, it was wonderful sleeping with the doors to the balcony open and feeling the fresh air. The hotel is just inside the medina and a comfortable walk to the Hassan II mosque. We were only in Casablanca for an afternoon and an evening on our way home, and it was all we wanted. Staff was very helpful with lining up early morning transprtation to the airport.

I had expected to be able to pay in advance or with a credit card. We had enough cash, so it wasn't a big problem, but it was unexpected.

This is a classic old school property . The top view balcony rooms offer a view of the square adjacent to the Medina and views of the harbour . It’s old but a slice of history with fabulous staff

Beds could be updated

Three of us stayed two nights in late Nov 2024. Weather was mild-chilly. The corner classic colonial building (and surrounding area) was very 'lived in' and atmospheric. I was apprehensive about being between the medina and Port and was concerned about general safety in the area. But it turned out better than expected. Not a lot of tourists at the time. Most were locals -- men and women of all ages -- going about their lives. The location was ideal for transport (rail from Airport, tram terminus, buses to Hassan II Mosque, walkable sightseeing). The immediate vicinity of a small square surrounded by a bank and exchange, convenience shops, eateries was a huge bonus. Brightly lit by nearby main thoroughfare and lanes feeding into the square and above establishments. There's an open rooftop which afforded lovely views and a discrete place to have a cigarette (as women smoking in public is frowned upon, mainly by the older generation). The day and night managers were friendly and helpful as were the cleaning ladies. The ambience of the hotel was that which had seen better days but still managing to capture some of its past glory in snatches of architectural details and its service. It has no elevator but the elegant spiral staircase, comfortably wide and airy, takes you to the spacious landings of each of the four floors above. Our double rooms on the first and second floors had french doors and slatted shutters opening out onto a small balcony with cafe table and chairs. It faced onto the small square but we don't remember being disturbed by noises and would keep the curtains drawn and french doors ajar when we slept. There's a built-in wooden cupboard and two small side tables to our double bed, also a small round table with two chairs and electric kettle with tea sachets. The bathroom was functional with adequate facilities, hot water pressure.

Perfect location, near the harbour - a few blocks away and you are in the Old Medina (more of a "fake goods" medina though). The hotel has a great feeling to it, even though a little deprecated. It is like traveling back in time.

I ended up paying more than the lobby price. Considerably more. With all genius discounts applied. And since it was a no cancellation...nothing to do. The hotel staff advised me to contact them directly the next time, or via their website. This should be looked into by booking.com staff. The check-in guy was...let's say a little incapacitated. Took forever for the formalities. Just our luck, as the other two shifts were completely different. Also, credit card was not accepted, despite all info provided (even a "visa" logo on the hotel door). The POS "didn't have paper"!?!. I had to go out and take money from an ATM to pay, with the ATM commissions included, obviously.

The hotel location was good, you can walk to the mall, to Rick's cafe, even to Hassan II. It's close to train station Gare Casa Port. If you come from the train station, gare Casa Voyageurs you should pay the taxi to the hotel 10dh (1euro) if they put the taxi meter, but if you arrive at night they tried to charge us 10euro, but finally found one with 5euro. (at night they don't put the machine, so you need to bargain). The room was basic, 2 beds and bathroom, but it was very good. The breakfast was good.

Old building, so no elevator.

The staff (woman on duty at front desk during the day and man on duty early the next morning) were fabulous, very courteous and reliable. They gave me good advice and ensured that my taxi to the airport was ready at 5:30am the next morning. The location was very convenient being a short and direct walk to the train station. The room and hotel had a lot of old world charm and the neighborhood was interesting.

The electrical outlets were a little worn and I had trouble getting my charging cable to connect.

This is an old hotel but has a lot of traditional Moroccon character which I really liked. The location is fabulous. It is on the outskirts of the old medina and not too far from the mosque. The staff were also able to answer questions and organised a last minute pick up from the airport (which is definitely worth getting).

Although my room location was fabulous in that it overlooked a little puplic square and cafes, it was quite noisy during the night. This is a bit of a problem for a light sleeper.

The location was great. Very close to the Casa Port train station which is easy access to or from the airport. It was a quick walk to Rick's Cafe and a nice walk to the mosque. Our room (101) was spacious and had two cute balconies with space for two that overlooks an active square. Lots of hot water for the shower.

The square can get loud at night at odd times (like 4am) and the bathroom is very small.

I am very grateful for the care of the girl at the hotel reception. She was very friendly and attentive to all my requests. The hotel has a beautiful interior in a traditional style and good, tasty cuisine. I will definitely come again. Booking from February 25 to 26, 2025.

I stay at Hôtel Central for many reasons; its proximity to the train station that leads to the airport, its old world charm and lively neighborhood, and the attentive staff.

Nothing in this category. Although I would advise guests who are sensitive to noise or wish to find a quiet neighborhood to look elsewhere. This hotel is located in a vibrant neighborhood with lots of activity.
