Our list for 2012
- Just after leaving ferry - was late and dark - in Tanger, Ibis Budget Hotel, watchman walked around our bikes all night, staff is very friendly and not expensive. Small fastfood joint across road open till late night.
Hotel in TANGER - Book your hotel ibis budget Tanger
- camping Relais de Marrakesh - as stated in posts above. A bit tricky to find and some very questionable surroundings, but cheap and spacey huts.
- Motel Rif, N13 south of Ouazzane - nice large rooms, cheap, secured parking, very good food and service http://www.motel-rif.ma/
If you wonder about it's name -no, nobody offered us illegal drugs and it totally safe 
- Ouarzazate, hotel Le Zat. It was cheap for double rooms (I think around 35 euro) and...
Well, what can I say. In Europe that'll be 5 start hotel I guess. Good we had bottle of cognac with us - played rich sitting at swimming pool with cognac and cofee. Not what I call an "adventure" 
- M'diq, (near Ceuta) Golden Beach hotel. Again - by European means should be expensive. 34 Euros for double room with sea view. Damn, made me feel like I am on family vacation
Some more to come

On R302 (Cathedral) I found near Zawyat Ahansal nice looking accomodation at Dar Ahansal (N 31 50.788, W 006 06.786). Further down direction North to Tillouguite at N 31 59.730, W 006 09.027 is on Google Earth italian picture of one hotel (Albergo de la Cathedral de Roca). Is there really hotel or just false info?
I would like to ask piste condition from same "Roca hotel" through Canyon to Anergui (N 32 04.123, W 005 56.251). No big uphill - from 1.150m to 1.500m a.s.l. on 38km, but possible washed out piste conditions at heavy rains. We are planing to ride GS's here at end of June.
Peter, Tim, Chris, ...?

A few that I recommend from 2012
Icht (between Akka and Assa)
Borj Biramane
N29 03.550 W8 51.212
Very good showers and loads of them, nice staff and interesting guests. 80 Dh for Two + Camping inc electric if you can make use of it.
Casades d’Ouzoud
Camping Zebra
N32 00.351 W6 43.177
Less than a Km from the falls, the place has a really nice atmosphere and the best showers / toilets I have ever found in Morocco.
Two + Camping 75Dh Very tasty three course meal for 85Dh also highly recommended.
Azrou
Euro Camping
N33 26.605 W5 11.420
This maybe not everyone's cup of tea as it's hardly "Morocco" but well worth a visit to this amazing site which is hardly used. Very friendly staff, clean good showers etc.
Two + Camping 40Dh and that includes free bread delivered to you in the morning

Merzouga: Stayed at Nomad Palace Hotel Don't follow signs to Left or right but 100 M before Merzouga take tarmac to your right ( if you are heading South before Merzouga). Then after 1 mile gravel track to your left will take you there ( 500M track OK for tarmac tyres) N 31.04 6291 W 003.99 6504
Very nice and close to the camels for a camel ride out to the desert.Also right on Erg Chebbi so if you want to ride on the dune then just ride.
Very good food and great swimming pool. Ali is the owner and manager.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
