Hotel Central is the best option if you want to be closer to the souks and bazaars of the old medina, but are on a limited budget. This hotel is as centrally located as they come. It is close to the train station, the markets, and King Hassan II Mosque. It is in the middle of the action and its rooftop bar overlooks the old medina of Casablanca.

The rooms are basic and clean. The hotel is old; so do not expect modern décor. Amenities are good but the WI-Fi connection isn’t dependable at all. Hotel Central offers incredible value for money and is perfect for backpackers and flashpackers alike. The markets are at your doorstep and you can go shopping for Moroccan carpets, watch potters fashion colourful utensils, and bargain for leather bags anytime during the day.
