When you first visit Rabat, you are looking for affordable places near the train station and near the tramway stations. Moreover, the place needs to be near the most touristic destinations in the city that are located near the sea. Usually, foreigners can stay up to 3 months (90 days) in Morocco. If you are looking for a short or a long stay in Rabat, here are the top places to rent with the best hotels to book :
The average daily rental price is 300 MAD (almost equivalent to 30 USD). However, the common prices of good-quality properties range from 500 to 700 MAD (50-70 USD).
The average monthly rent price in Agdal in Rabat ranges from 4000 MAD (400 USD) to 8000 MAD (800 USD). Factors like living surface, furniture, number of rooms, living room, equipped kitchen, dining area, balcony, bathroom, concierge, car park and floor level can affect the price of the rent. Another factor is the intervention of a broker who usually asks for a commission that equals in value one month of rent or half thereof.
A 400 USD budget can get you access to a 35-meter-square studio with two pieces (a very small kitchen space, restroom, and saloon or living room). To rent a property, the landowner asks for your passport / ID, one month’s rent in advance, and 500 MAD for electricity and water in advance (in case you will leave pending bills).
For hotels, there are usually international hotels with international standards like Four Seasons, Hotel Farah, Ibis Budget, Sofitel, Barcelo, and Mercure, etc. There are also Riyads, which are typically Moroccan with Jewish architecture, Moroccan tilt and decorated antique style gateways
