Ignore GoogleMaps, Oscar Hotel is not between Ave. Moulay Rachid and Blvd. Mohammid V, but some 3km NW of Ouarzazate, between Ouarzazate and pretty much nothing until the Atlas Mountains! The hotel is within the studios and coulda been a film set itself!.
Every so often a band of travellers would rock up to the hotel, drink at the bar, dip their weary legs in the pool and then take a guided tour around the Atlas Film Studios. I thought the tours were free for guests, but apparently not ;-(, that would have earned it an extra star!!
The room was spacious, comfortable and the air-con not too noisy (unlike many hotels in Maroc!) With no local eateries, we eat dinner at the hotel, It was home-made, good, tasty with all fresh ingredients and they were able to make things to order (to suit our veggie palettes!).
Breakfast was supposed to be at 06:30 but we had to get the receptionist to wake the restaurateur up for our eventual breakfast at 07:30! We could done with that extra hour as we were travelling over the Tizi-n’Tichka pass that morning, heading back to Marrakech.
Would recommend the hotel as an interesting and unusual break from the run of hotels found in these parts, and far more worthy than the chains! I’d have preferred it if we were where Google had said, but you couldn’t really have a full-blown film studios slap bang in the middle of Ouarzazate.
