Was the best place to stay so far for us. It was located literally inside Ait Ben Haddou, so exploring was really easy and convenient. The sunrise and sunset at the top were magical. In addition to the location, the staff was incredibly friendly. And the food was better than most restaurants we've eaten at so far. Great experience.

Comfortable room with gas heaters. Staff friendly and accommodating. Bonus, ask for a pack mule to carry your luggage from the parking lot across the bridge to the Riad.

beautiful and unique location, friendly staff, comfortable rooms, quiet city

good hotel, and to stay in the old city was a lifetime experience.

You will be in a unique location which gives a great experience to really feel isolated from the more digital world. You will still get some wifi but no mosques or car noises around it was very peaceful. The place is also build on a hill so it gives a unique building experience.

Awesome location in the middle of one of the most inspiring places. Amazing old house from traditional materials, built into the mountain. We recommend it whole heartedly

The owner was extremely nice and generous! He allow my friend and I to park our motorcycles at his home to ensure they were safe. He was also very helpful in giving recommendations about where to go and what to see! Unique hotel with a fantastic host!

We were right in the old buildings. Beautiful terrace upon which to relax. Very friendly and efficient gentleman carted luggage. A magical location.

The location of the Kasbah is exceptional, right inside the UNESCO World Heritage Site and very, very convenient for touring. It's a little ways from the parking area to the Kasbah (across a pedestrian bridge over a river bed), but a porter was available, and the proprietor, Rachid, was in good communication with us beforehand, so everything went smoothly. The dinner we booked (chicken tajine) was excellent as was the breakfast the next morning. Rachid was a super nice guy and pleasant to talk to.

Place was great! The staff was amazing. The room was very nice and quiet, I was right off their patio. The patio was very nice, it had the view of the entire town. Easy to locate but if you have doubts once you get inside the walls of the town then ask a local and they are extremely helpful. The food was also amazing! For the parking, they will send you a picture of where you can park, there is no parking in the town itself and have to park right across the bridge and walk over to the town, not bad at all. Make sure to go through the public entrances of the town and not pay to reach your stay.
