Unlike Marrakech or Fès, Rabat rarely shouts at its visitors. Morocco's capital is a calm, green city of wide avenues, embassies and a UNESCO listed old core, where the unfinished minaret of the Hassan Tower, Roman ruins at the Chellah and the blue lanes of the Kasbah des Oudayas sit only minutes apart.
Rihab Hotel stands at 45 Avenue Moulay Ismail in the Hassan quarter, about ten minutes on foot from the Hassan Tower and the Mausoleum of Mohammed V. Renovated in 2022, this four star building of six floors has around one hundred rooms with air conditioning, minibars and safes, and its Sky Garden restaurant on the top floor looks over the city. A bar, massage room, fitness area and meeting halls complete the offer, and the hotel's own car park is free, with a charging point for electric vehicles.
