Delicious Moroccan Cuisine

I had my dinner at the restaurant located just across the street from the hotel. The harira and tajine were absolutely wonderful and packed with authentic flavors. The view from the terrace here was also stunning, making the dining experience even more nice.

Great Pool Area

Although the pool is a short walk from the hotel, it offers a fantastic view of the surroundings. On a warm day, relaxing by the pool is a perfect way to unwind. I could see the kasbah from the pool area, adding to its charm.

I had a decent stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable, featuring three beds and a lovely terrace, which was a real plus. The location was fantastic, with incredible views and easy access to Ait Ben Haddou. However, I did notice that the dining experience could use some improvement, as the breakfast options were not that great. Despite a couple of downsides, I felt it was a good value overall.
