I stayed at New York Hotel Marrakech from 22nd June for five days with a friend for her 30th We booked and pre-paid for a twin room through lastminute.com but on arrival were given a double. The reception staff were friendly and polite but all they could offer us was a room exchange the next day with an upgrade fee. The double room (44) was clean and comfortable so we stayed there.
Positives: The room was very clean and there was a maid service every day, plasma TV and decent aircon. After reading posts about bed bugs we checked all bedding defore using it, everything was clean and fresh and we did not get bitten during our stay. The hotel is four blocks away from Central Park and there is a number 1 (red line) subway station literally outside the door so you can get everywhere you need to with ease and at a low cost. The hotel is above a Starbucks but I found the café “Hot and Crusty” just a two minute walk up the road a lot better with loads of choice for breakfast or lunch.
Down sides; No lifts and no internet in the room but there is free Wi-Fi in the reception area only. The view from our room was interesting and a down side if occupied (see picture). Storage space was minimal for two females.
If you’re planning to see many sites all over the city I would recommend getting a 7-Day subway pass it Cost: $29 you can have unlimited trips and runs till midnight every day. Pedicab tour is a brilliant way to see all the famous spots round central park especially if the weather is good. A great night out is the comedy cellar, easy to get to very cheap and really funny: <url>
