Hotel Al Alba

Hotel Al Alba is a budget hotel at 35 RN1 in Asilah, on the Atlantic coast of northern Morocco in the Tangier-Tetouan-Al Hoceima region. Asilah is a small whitewashed seaside town known for its ramparts, its arts festival and its murals, and the hotel's location on the national road RN1 in the Avenue Mohammed V area puts it a short walk or taxi ride from the old medina, the sea walls and the town's beaches. The hotel is a simple, practical property in the style of Moroccan budget hotels, with function ahead of decoration. Rooms are listed as Single, Double and Triple, suiting solo travellers, couples and small groups. Nightly rates run from about 450 MAD in low season to about 850 MAD in high season, reflecting the town's summer demand when Moroccan families fill the coast. Listed amenities are a restaurant, parking and WiFi; the hotel has no pool or spa. The restaurant typically serves Moroccan dishes and breakfast, while the town itself offers fresh seafood restaurants near the port and in the medina. Service is straightforward, with staff able to help with taxis, directions and bus or train connections; Tangier is about 45 kilometres to the northeast and can be reached by road or rail. Parking is a practical benefit for visitors travelling by car, since old-town lanes are largely pedestrian. The hotel suits budget travellers, road-trippers and those visiting the town for a night or a weekend. Those seeking atmosphere inside the medina may prefer a riad. Because the property sits on a main road, some noise is possible, so visitors should check room position and current conditions directly with the hotel.
