    The location was a little out of the centre of town but it wasn’t a problem at all, the taxi was a 10 minute drive and usually £5/6 one way but split between a group was absolutely fine.

    Our stay at this hotel was INCREDIBLE - it is so much nicer than the pictures online (even though they still look gorgeous!). We went in July and due to the extreme temperatures we were some of the only guests staying at the hotel which was lovely to have the space to ourselves, and the deal we got for the room was an amazing price. The staff were the best part about our stay, they sorted everything we needed, booking us activities, making delicious breakfast every day and even kindly making us fruit platters when we came back late and missed the dinner slot one night. They treated us so kindly, bringing tea and pastries to the poolside each day as we were relaxing. We had booked a family room for 5 people which ended up being two interconnecting rooms, each with their own huge bathroom and plenty of space for all of us. The pool was much needed in the heat and the outside space is so well decorated equipped. Can’t recommend this hotel enough!

    Warm welcome at reception. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Bedroom and bathroom spacious, clean, well equipped and comfortable. Good food in the evening and lovely breakfast including Berber omelette. Pool looked very inviting- just a little cold in January! Hotel was easy to find and receptionist gave us information about how to find the things we wanted to see nearby.

    The only thing I could fault was the common areas and the room was quite chilly on arrival. But that was down to the weather. The heaters struggled to bring the room to temperature.

    This was a lovely property to stay at. The staff were friendly and welcoming right from the start. We were helped with our luggage to our rooms and were also provided with tea and biscuits at the poolside. Lovely, lovely place. And excellent staff!

    My friend and I really liked the hotel and we especially appreciated the hospitality of everyone working there. We were both sick after a trail in the desert and we really felt looked after (appropriate meals, care..). We also were lucky to be upgraded on our first night there !

    The hotel is a few kilometres from the centre of Ouarzazate. A taxi costs around 40 dh each way and there are lots of them. You can get one at the grand taxi turning point a few metres down the road. It suited us to stay out of town but it is more isolated, and there are no restaurants and very few cafes around it. It is next to a modern school but there is little else and area is quite undeveloped.

    The hotel is spotlessly clean, the pool setting is beautiful with lovely plants and palms. The staff really want you to enjoy your stay. They brought us free tea and cakes every afternoon by the pool and they will help to organise days out by calling ahead and negotiating prices. We went quad biking by the CLA studios and horse and camel riding at Ait Ben Haddou. Be prepared to haggle on prices. We went in November so it was cold at sun down and the pool was freezing but we expected this. The rooms are very cold but they have heating/air con units which worked fine. The rooms are huge. We had a family suite of two connected rooms with two bathrooms. Very comfortable with good WiFi. The breakfasts are endless. Lots of choice from cheese and meat, pastries and breads, Moroccan pancakes, jams, dried fruit, bananas yoghurts, cereals etc. On the last day they made us an amazing omelette style egg specialty in a tagine which was delicious. We chose to eat in the city centre each night because our hotel was almost empty of other guests when we stayed. There are several nice cafes and restaurants by the main square (Al Mouahadine). Habous was our favourite. Lots of choice. Not expensive (mains like tagine were about 45dh) It gets busier as the evening progresses and the main square has hilarious electric cars the children can drive that light up as they go round. Kept the teenagers happy! As did buying candyfloss and popcorn for about 8p!!
