Most budget accommodation is found in the Old Medina of Rabat. Walking on Mohammed V street, you'll see a lot of signs pointing to hotels. On some days these fill up quickly, so it's good to be early. A double room will set you back about 120?150 Dh.
HI Hostel Rabat, 43 Rue Marassa Bab El Had (Medina). A worn-down hostel on the edge of the medina walls. Four large dorm rooms with 16 bunks each ensure that groups large and small can bunk down here. With peeling paint and some rather noxious odors in the bathroom, the place is past its prime and not a great value. A 10 minute walk from the train station. Breakfast is included. Dh 65 per bunk.
Hotel Splendide in the Ville Nouvelle, an easy walk from the train station. Large rooms and big windows, lots of light, around a central courtyard. Quiet and clean. They offer meals which are just food from the place across the street brought across on a tray. The shared bathrooms are generally clean. 100dh / night. Showers 10dh, hot water only after p.m.
Hotel de la Paix in the Ville Nouvelle. Dingy and dank. 150 dh. Warning: If you don't get a room with an in suite shower, you don't get to take one at all.
