The Hotel Bellerive does not even come close to resembling the description in their internet advertising. Some of the falsehoods were blamed on Ramadan. (1). Their first listed amenity alleges a free buffet breakfast, however it is not a buffet, just four slices of toast (and, after I mentioned a buffet, two hard boiled eggs and later children’s yogurt). (2). The second dishonest statement is that the rooms are smoke free. (3). The third is that the hotel has a bar, a lounge, a restaurant, a cafe and a deli.

Originally booked for 3 weeks changed due to travel plan and had worst one week stay. Not worth even for half the...
Read moreThis is the kind of place where you choose to use your sleeping bag if you have one with you- if not you really wish you had packed one. Luckily we had ours with for the Sahara segment of our Morocco trip. This place was dirty, loud and the management cold.||||The bathroom had used soap in it and all of 1/2 of a roll of toilet paper. Not great when I woke w/food poisoning at 1am. There was not enough hot water and we were up at 5 am to shower. ||||The driver they hired for our airport drop was late (not necessarily their fault, but they made no apologies either).||||We stayed on NYE and the noise from the street was pretty insane, not really what we expected in a Muslim country and much different from the rest our experience in Morocco.||||Look elsewhere in Casablanca, because...
