“A lovely place to stay”
I’ve had a lovely stay! Lovely little kasbah, with nice views and a garden area with a pool. Excellent customer service. Hammed at reception speaks excellent English and is very kind and welcoming. Nice restaurant is just next door. Perfect location to see Ait Benhaddou. Parking is just outside. I would recommend a stay there.

Very quiet place, new to the river, there is a fantastic view of the mountains. The staff was friendly. They offered us a late lunch (even during Ramadan). We really enjoyed the stay. There are small basic shops in the village. The owner allowed us to keep our bicycles in the rooms.

“Ben Haddou with pool”
We stayed here twice on our roadtrip. It's a really relaxed vibe, with a lovely pool areas and a nice terrace to relax. It's only a few minutes drive from Ben haddou. There is a lovely restaurant next door for dinner. Like anywhere we went in Morocco the staff are super friendly and helpful

The room was more like a small bungalow - next to the pool. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was satisfactory. The breakfast was good and plentiful - served in the common dining room.

“An excellent place to explore Ait Ben Haddou and Ouarzazate.”
An excellent location to explore Ait Ben Haddou, the film studios in Ouarzazate, and other nearby attractions. Toufik and his friend were very kind and helpful throughout our stay, offering tea and assisting with booking activities. I also had some interesting conversations with Toufik about Berber culture. Thank you, Toufik!
