We're back from a short stay in this hotel. The hotel is located in "La Palmeraie", a short taxi ride (100 MAD) to Place Djema El Fna. There are buses that take you for free from the hotel to Place de la liberté a 20 min walk to downtown. The gardens are well tended. The rooms are large and clean... More

This was our first time in Marrakech and were impressed by the reviews. The hotel is a short distance by taxi from the busy city and offers a welcome relief in its tranquility. The hotel sits in in wonderfully tended gardens (more gardeners than Kew!). All of the staff were fantastic and friendly, language was no barrier, although our French... More

I read with some concern some of the other reviews but my concerns were completely unfounded. Yes the hotel is largely occupied by a French tour company - however there were other English people there during our stay. And yes the staff speak French-as is the case with the country as a whole. We found the staff to always be... More

On entering the grounds of this hotel I was amazed at how beautiful it was and reception was very nice with comfy seats to the side. As I had just arrived I was in need of the loo so used the facilities in reception. The flush was broken so you had to hold it in place to flush the loo... More

Having read the comments and speaking only pigeon French I was a little nervous about our short stay here, however found the staff to be so sweeet and accommodating that it really wasn't a problem at all. Yes, we couldn't fully get involved in the entertainment, but Butlins for the French is not my cup of tea at all so... More

We have just come back from a week here and though most of the staff were very friendly and the food was ok it was not a great experience. Reception staff were never particularly friendly or helpfull when we had problems Our main complaint is with the animation team, on the first day when they realised we were English they... More

Though it's a big hotel, the quality is good and the people are very friendly. A large variety of food every day which wasn't bad at all. If you're going to Marrakesh, this is one of the hotels to stay!

The Decameron is a short taxi ride from the 'madness of 'marakesh'. The grounds are lovely, full of fruit laden date palms and cactus plants that are very well tended to on a daily basis by the team of gardeners. The rooms are a generous size, plenty of storage space and are cleaned every day. Towels, soaps etc are changed... More

We read with some concern the negative reviews about the hotel- primarily concerning the lack of English spoken at this establishment, although this proved to be a boon for us as we wanted a quiet uninterupted holiday, which the Decameron delivers in spades. However if you don't mind this and/or speak a smattering of GCSE French- read on! The hotel... More
