“Felt Like A Movie Start”

This hotel was amazing, and we wish we could have spent more than one night. We stayed in room 127. The property is very large and grandiose with lots of greenery and movie props throughout.

This hotel was amazing, and we wish we could have spent more than one night. We stayed in room 127. The property is very large and grandiose with lots of greenery and movie props throughout. The rooms are spread across the property in small clusters, and in the morning when we looked out it was as if we were in a park with trees visible in our windows. It was also very quiet despite the size. The room was nicely equipped and of average size. There were a few ants and little flies in the room, but that didn't bother us. The bathroom was well designed, but like many places we stayed it lacked enough hooks for hanging towels etc. Thankfully the shower was designed so you could turn water on without getting wet. The bed was very comfortable and provided our best sleep during our two weeks of touring the country. There is a huge pool. The breakfast and dinner buffets were delicious.

Arrived late afternoon and were usher into a beautiful oasis. Stunning pool and grounds after a swim we looked forward to nice meal on the patio. Unfortunately the food was mediocre at best and quite pricey. Otherwise an amazing stay. Rooms were beautifully appointed.

“Has so much potential but falls short”

We were delighted looking at the website after our private tour company said this would be our accommodation The good: Modern rooms, nice pool area, a bar if you partake, more than one food option on site. Decent WiFi The bad: English - out of the 5 Riads and hotels we’ve stayed at thus far, thi… more

We were delighted looking at the website after our private tour company said this would be our accommodation The good: Modern rooms, nice pool area, a bar if you partake, more than one food option on site. Decent WiFi The bad: English - out of the 5 Riads and hotels we’ve stayed at thus far, this hotel has the least amount of English spoken by staff, including the front desk. It seems like their primary is French but if catering to all tourists, this seems off given other more secluded and smaller hotels we stayed at having better communication Food - we had the dinner buffet included. I can’t speak for the other restaurants, but most of the food was barely edible. Worst hotel dinner we had, although appreciate a change from Moroccan cuisine. Yes it’s “international” but all dishes were of poor quality. Drinks - very overpriced. I guess that goes along with the rate. At these prices, I’ll stick with the four seasons. All in all, I do not think the prices are commensurate with the quality of product and service

“Good but in need of some improvements”

Ourzazate is a nice location from where you can plan lots of trips. The Berbère palace is in an ideal location. Once maybe a grand hotel, it’s in need of renovation.

Ourzazate is a nice location from where you can plan lots of trips. The Berbère palace is in an ideal location. Once maybe a grand hotel, it’s in need of renovation. The entire hotel is packed with movie sets and pictures on the walls of famous actors who stayed and filmed at the Atlas Studios (which is really interesting to visit). The interior is all mixed with different styles, normally that’s not my taste but it has its charme here. The pool is beautiful and has a very good size. Half of the sun loungers around the pool fall apart and are very old. Need immediate replacement. Try the pizza with anchovies at the lounge bar, it’s very tasty. One very big point of improvement is the level of English that staff speaks, especially at reception which is the most important place in the hotel where people should understand you. I had the feeling that everywhere else in the hotel they speak better English than at reception. Staff is very sweet and tries to accommodate your wishes. A good place to go if not the only real option when you are in Ourzazate, but they really need to keep up the looks and keep up the maintenance. Just as a side note, be prepared to pay €23 for a gin & tonic and €10 for a beer
