Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers discounted rates and features excellent, clean, and comfortable rooms with private terraces and spacious bathrooms. The spa was a great addition, especially as the weather was cooler than anticipated. The service is top-notch, with attentive and helpful staff, although the limited breakfast options were a downside. The location is right in the heart of the Medina, close to the main market and Djemaa El Fna, offering an exciting atmosphere, although access by car is not possible. Dining took some time but was delicious, with one minor disappointment in omelette quality. The hotel's facilities are well-maintained and offer everything needed for a pleasant stay.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were excellent and had a big hydro-jacuzzi that felt like a hammam, providing a clean, comfortable, and lovely retreat. The spa was a highlight for us, perfect for unwinding in the cooler evenings. The location is superb, just a couple of minutes walk to the main square, but do note that you can't access it by car.
The hotel offers excellent rooms that are clean, comfortable, and come with their own terrace and a huge bathroom. The service, although slightly disorganized, is provided by friendly and helpful staff. The location is superb, right in the heart of the Medina, just minutes away from the main square and market. The dining experience is good but with slightly limited options. Overall, a great value for money stay with a few minor drawbacks.
