Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were lovely and spacious, with beautiful decor and fresh flowers everywhere. The service was top-notch, with helpful and friendly staff always ready to assist. The location, though somewhat outside the medina, offered a tranquil oasis away from the hustle and bustle. The dining experience was good, especially the Moroccan pastries, and the facilities were excellent.
The hotel offers a unique experience with direct access to the rooftop pool, providing panoramic views of the Medina and the Atlas Mountains. The rooms, although tiny and dark with a musty smell, come with a semi-private courtyard and jacuzzi-warm dipping pools shared with only one other room. However, their location at the far end of the hotel can be a downside.
