Stayed here for one night between Erg Chebbi and Demnate. The building is interesting, but the rooms are not comfortable, the food was mediocre (skimpy dinner and a cold breakfast) and the staff seemingly uninterested in the guests. We did enjoy the view from the roof and the walk to the Sufi shrine. More

A bit cold and forbidding (we arrived at night) but quite incredible! A once-in-a-lifetime chance to stay in a real Moroccan Kasbah. The beds are pretty hard and it's quite cold in November, so be warned! More

It was a nice experience to sleep in a real palace, though it was very cold, and the WiFi was only usable in the lobby. More

This 700 year old beautifully restored kasbah in Skoura in Vallee du Dades was well worth the extra miles from Ait Benhaddou. We arrived before sunset to enjoy a drink on the West facing terrace just in time to watch the sun set behind palm trees. Our room was on the main floor where lanterns were lit to help us... More

There's nothing quite like staying in beautiful accommodation that was once used as a fortress and is made of just mud and wood. The restoration is gorgeous, and the suite we had was very comfortable. The bed was large, and the slitted windows had a great view of the oasis - though not as good as the one from the... More

The couple who owned this joint saved our lives when we ended up in Nkob around 9.30 pm and with no hope of making it to Zagora - our original destination. Met them while having dinner at a road-side restaurant in Nkob and after hearing our story, they offered us a room at their fancy, newly renovated Kasbah for half... More

This labor of love by Juan, the Spanish owner, who completely renovated an 18th Century Kasbah and has opened as an accommodation with a restaurant, cannot be underestimated. The building is beautiful, and there are also outdoor shaded spaces for enjoying the views out over the palmaries, or for taking the meals prepared by the excellent chef. The interior spaces... More

If you are looking for a real taste of a Kasbah, stay here.. if looking for regular hotel chain accommodations, please don't. Totally love the ambience. Went with a group of photographers, although, for couples or solo traveler, this place is awesome as well. More

We stayed at Kasbah Ait Ben Moro for one night; the owner of our guesthouse in Fez had stayed there the week before and mentioned it as an option when we told her that we hadn't booked that leg of the trip. Even though we had made a reservation a few days before arrival, when we got to Skoura I... More

We really liked this place to stay, it was great to stay in a Kasbah, the terrace at the back is lovely and relaxing - v Mediterranean! Food was really good too. It gets hot though so if you're travelling in summer be prepared for it, there's no ac. More
