We had driven all day to arrive at Ouazazarte, via the Dades and Todra Gorges, so were very tired when we finally parked up outside Dar Amoudou - it was so lovely to be welcomed at the door and shown to our room, which had an amazing view from the balcony over a lush green valley, towards the mountains beyond. We had reserved dinner on the terrace, which was one of the best meals we had in Morocco....breakfast was also lovely, and Dar Amoudou is an excellent location for exploring the attractions nearby, including the old Kasbah, and the Atlas Studios just outside the city, as well as being a great stopping-off point between the desert and Marrakesh.

Nothing at all - a perfect short stay

All the staff was really sweet and ready for our questions. They even gave us the option to upgrade to another room that was empty and had the best view for free. The view is really special and I loved the breakfast. All the facility is really beautiful and functional. It’s run by a family and you can really feel that. The next day they let us do a late check out and even gave us a lunch as hospitality. I can definitely recommend. It’s not at the center and you’ll find a local experience, and the views are incredible. A great oasis to experience peacefulness specially after chaotic Marrakesh. I’ll definitely come back!

Nothing.

Amazing place to stay in Ouarzazate, the owner Ali is very friendly and helpful. I stayed for 2 nights with my family and its highly recommend the hotel, the food is amazing, its clean, unique interior, the view is excellent. You can enjoy both sunrise and sunset from the balcony.

Its all good and amazing, didnt have much to say that we dint like. Area of improvement will be the wifi internet at 3rd floor somehow is slow. I suspect its because of the type of wifi device, if they used the Mesh type wifi 6, it will be much better. Thanks

Everything about it. If it had a swimming pool it would be a perfect 10. The host was extremely friendly and kind. He even offered us a small fridge since we're with small kids. The room was just perfect with a huge balcony watching the huge field next to the city. The aircon was working perfectly, the beds were comfortable and the whole hotel was spotlessly clean, so was our room! The food was good and the breakfast was traditional Moroccan. The parking is just in front of the door and it's covered by two cameras. We parked a Hilux and there was still space for two other cars. Overall:10/10

No such thing

We stayed at Dar Amoudou for 3 nights on our first visit to Morocco. We were swept away by the sheer beauty and exceptional hospitality of Mr Ali and his family. Dar Amoudou is a complete Moroccan experience : it is a family run hotel built by Mr Ali's father - (Mr Ali's hard work over the years can be seen and felt ). The architecture, decor and cleanliness is first class. The hotel terrace and rooms (with a balcony) have mesmerising panoramic views of the mountains, fields and the settlements. The hotel is thoughtfully built and tastefully decorated with typical Moroccan handicrafts. The host, Mr Ali is welcoming, friendly and kind who will go out of his way to help (Mr Ali very kindly dropped us in the city and arranged a reliable tour for us to Merzouga & Marrakech). The breakfast served was fresh and scrumptious and can match any 4 star hotel. The beds were clean and comfortable. The fixtures in the toilet were traditional and clean with running hot water and shower. The ceilings in the rooms were a work of art in itself. The hotel is situated in a quiet and safe residential neighbourhood with a short drive to the city centre and Kasbah. We hope to come back to this beauty (InshAllah!!) and would strongly recommend Dar Amoudou to family, friends and travellers looking to stay in Ouarzazate!! Our prayers for Mr Ali and his family :: May Allah bless and preserve Dar Amoudou for generations to come. May you continue to serve others with love and kindness. Ameen!!

The hotel was lovely: the color schemes, the garden, the terrace, the view. It was all lovely. The hotel staff was friendly and accomodating. A prior hotel did not have the laundry facilities it advertised and we arrived at Dar Amoudou with no clean clothing left for the morning. They washed our clothes immediately so the clothing would be dry by morning. Their kind and quick response to our situation was very much appreciated.

The only thing I would note, and it's not really a dislike, just a heads up. The hotel is down two very narrow streets. If you are not a confident driver with a good understanding of where your bumpers are, the last five minutes of the drive into the hotel could be very stressful.

This is one of the best hotels we stayed in during our Moroccan trip. The room was big (the owner even gave us a bigger room that we booked), it was beautifully decorated, the bed was so comfortable and everything was super clean. The best thing was the terrace with an amazing view. Also, the dinner was delicious! The owner and staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome. We enjoyed our stay here very much and would definitely come back here again!

Dar Amoudou was a beautiful property with a fantastic view from both our balcony and the communal terrace. The staff were very welcoming and polite. The room was spacious with beautiful art work. The breakfast and dinner were great. We ate the best tagines that we had tasted! Dinner was roughly £12 per person per night. We enjoyed relaxing with a mint tea and watching bee-eaters from the terrace. The location is great if you are exploring Ait Ben Haddou by car as you can park at the property under shade.

The rooms are a little noisy due to thin walls - but we appreciate this is nothing that can be fixed and did not detract from our stay! It is quite far from the centre of Ouarzazate, but as we had a car this was no problem.

Ali and his team are super wonderful and their hospitality can be well noted. We absolutely recommend this place.We enjoyed the location which is at the edge of the city quiet and peaceful for resting after a long visiting day.Breakfast and dinner was well served. During our 3 day stay Ali was our information guide in planning our visits. Thank you Ali. From: Michel MOUSTACHE Rosie SOUVERAIN ( Montreal, Canada)

NOT A THING

It’s the most beautiful hotel I’ve been to. Gorgeos views and tastefully decorated. It is a familiar business which makes you feel welcome and cozy. Also the dinner and breakfast are exquisite. We had a problem with our car and we got to the hotel late. We asked them if we could have dinner (a bit late) and they kept the kitchet open just for the both of us. That was a beautiful detail from them. Also the host was very nice and helpful.

That we couldn’t star for more days
