Nice hotel_.

Beautiful hotel with great staff and service. The food however was lacking as was the WIFI throughout the hotel. It was almost nonexistent making it quite difficult for those of us that had some business related activities.

Wow! Don’t miss this place

Words cannot describe the beauty and comfort of this small property. Hidden among the hills and views of the nearby Kasbah, don’t be confused to think it is a low budget affair. The food is amazing. The location is gorgeous, well manicured gardens well-maintained buildings, great views, and an incredible spa. Anyone would be silly not to choose this location! It is worth every Dirham!

Perfect relax break from the area and the trip

We've been upgraded to a Suite (which really should be a standard room). Service was OK, but the facility is great with a lot of quite place to rest and relax! Everything is of great shape and clean. Food was OK.

Ce fut un séjour exceptionnel. Il n’y a absolument rien à redire si ce n’est que c’est encore plus beau que sur les photos. Les photos ne montrent même pas le quart du charme de cette établissement. Le directeur de l’établissement est super. Il nous a fait visiter tout le ksar et nous a même surclassé .. à faire absolument!

Wonderful stay

We have spent a wonderful time at this hotel. Service is top notch, breakfast is one of the best ones we have had over our stay in Morocco. View from the rooms (Suite) are great and rooms are very spacious. The pool is nicely fresh, quiet and well decorated. Options at the shop are great too. The hotel is nicely decorated and very typical in general. The gym is quite complete. We will definitely be back and would recommend that place without any hesitations. Note that a car is needed to visit the Kasbah (8min ride by car), but they also have bikes to rent if needed.
