“Wonderful location, comfortable accommodation, and friendly staff and owner.”
Breakfasts and dinners were great - the chef accommodated our dietary restrictions as best he could. Simply loved the location, quiet and in a berber village with a fortress nearby! Very close to Ait Ben Haddou, a UNESCO Heritage site and Ouarzazate. The room was large, beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds.

“Not a comfortable stay”
The building itself looks beautiful and is situated just outside the small town. Which is nice to avoid the crowds.

“Gorgeous place!!”
What a gorgeous space!! We loved everything about it. The room was massive, and we had two floors!! The beautiful decor, huge balcony terrace, perfect lighting in every space, very comfy beds, stunning view from the balcony, amazing accommodating staff... I had a much needed 1 hr massage at the location as well which was so good. The dinner was DELICIOUS, loved every bite. Location was good, we had a long drive and long day so just wanted to stay put, it was great for that. Absolutely silent at night, amazing sleep. WiFi worked flawlessly. Oh and we even got a beautiful sunset view!!

“Good for a one night stop close to Ait Ben Haddou”
The room was fantastic. It was newly furnished and had modern interior. Location is outside of the town of Ait Ben Haddou and the main tourist attractions but is just a short drive away. The Kasbah next to the hotel can be visited and is stunning.

“Amazing, best hotel we had in Marokko!”
The staff was incredibly friendly, and the pool was fantastic. There’s also the option to enjoy a hammam and/or massage—I tried a 30-minute massage, and it was wonderful. Our room was beautiful with a stunning balcony view, and the food was both delicious and plentiful. Overall, everything was just perfect! The location is ideal for visiting Aït Ben Haddou and soaking in the beautiful surroundings. Finding the place at first can be a little tricky, but once you arrive, you’ll discover yourself right in the heart of a charming little town.

“A kasbah to enjoy, comfortably refurbished for a relaxing stay”
This kasbah is conveniently close to Ait Ben Haddou if you go there by car, offer a really nice pool and cozy rooms. The food is very good; we particularly liked the bereber omelette and the awesome breakfast served by smiling and kind people. To treat yourself while at the same time enjoying a fantastic, historic endroite. Tip: do not miss the antiques shop run by Mohammed right in front of the hotel

“Relaxed, warm and friendly - excellent stay!”
The staff is what really makes this place - We will miss them! The Kasbah is located in a typical village, beautifully decorated throughout, spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds with a great restaurant onsite with freshly prepared Moroccan dishes which we ate at for lunch and dinner - the food was fantastic. Great breakfast with a selection of homemade breads, pancakes jams, honey, yogurt and freshly squeezed orange juice. There is a small pool with a few sunbeds. A lovely, unpretentious place to completely unwind and relax for a few days. Good value for money and we loved it!
