In Rabat, STORY Le Carrousel is a hotel in the STORY Hotels & Resorts collection. On its official website, it presents itself as a luxury oceanfront hotel, with a spa called AZALA, a pool and several places to eat. This article sums up what the hotel states, describes what its gallery photos show and helps you plan a stay without overpromising.

A hotel facing the Atlantic

According to the official website, the hotel is perched above the coastline, with a contemporary design inspired by Neo-Amazigh heritage. It specifies that most rooms face the ocean and that only the Standard King rooms look inward. The hotel states 131 accommodations, including 120 rooms and 11 suites. It displays no official rating.

The named categories run from the Standard King room to the Presidential Suite: Deluxe and Premium rooms, Junior Suite, Executive Suite.

Restaurants and bars

The hotel's website gives several counts of dining venues depending on the page. We therefore retain none and limit ourselves to the named venues. Solé by Casa Jose offers Spanish-Moroccan sharing cuisine. All Day Dining serves an international menu from breakfast to dinner. The hotel also cites a lobby bar and the pool bar.

One gallery photo shows a large restaurant room with golden arches, a bar set back, a wooden ceiling and set tables. The gallery does not say which restaurant it is.
