How to avoid a hotel bill in Morocco
If you’ve booked a flight from Paris to Morocco, you may need to buy the ticket on a hotel reservation.
Morocco’s tourism agency, Morocco Airlines, has an option that lets travelers buy the trip online and then book a hotel room.
But that’s a hassle, as the hotel is not located in the country and, if the hotel’s staff has any questions, the traveler is left to guess.
If you want to avoid paying for the trip and the hotel, you’ll have to call ahead to make sure your room is booked, and the next morning you’ll be asked to confirm your booking.
That may sound like a hassle but, according to Morocco’s tourism bureau, it’s not.
“It’s not a problem to use the hotel reservation system, as you can just book the hotel,” said Alaa Ali, head of Morocco’s Tourism Bureau.
You don’t need to register for a reservation, and you don’t have to pay for it.
And if you’re traveling with a companion, you can choose to buy tickets online and pay in cash at the hotel or online with your phone, Ali said.
There are also hotel rates available.
For example, for a $500 hotel room, Morocco’s airport-owned Casa Mabri hotel rates can be as high as $7,000, according the Tourism Bureau’s website.
This may seem expensive, but it can be worth it if you want a luxury stay in Morocco, Ali added.
The only problem with using a hotel as a travel agent is that you might not be able to contact your hotel or the hotel staff if you miss your flight or if you get sick.
In addition, if you have any questions about your hotel, there is no guarantee that the hotel will help you find the room.
Morocco has had a long-standing policy of avoiding bookings from international travelers.
However, there are some airlines that have started offering reservations for their flights in the past.
Airline and hotel reservation companies are not regulated by Morocco’s Ministry of Tourism, so it is up to travelers to be vigilant about the policies and practices they are following, Ali explained.
While you should avoid booking hotel rooms online, Ali suggested you contact the airline or hotel if you need help finding a room, or you’re unsure of whether you can use the reservation system.
