We had a lovely couple of nights at Dar Zhora. The hotel is beautifully located sitting just above the Ourika Valley with wonderful views along the valley from out room and the communal terraces of the hotel. The room was very clean, spacious and had coffee and tea making facilities and mini bar (non-alcoholic). The terrace with the room had the most beautiful views west along the valley We at both nights at the hotel and the Tagines were the exceptional. Everyone working at the hotel were lovely and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel organised a guide for us for a hike to a Berber Village. Khalid was an excellent guide, full of knowledge and fun too. Please do ask for him of you would like a hike while you are there. There is a small village walking distance from the hotel where there are craft stores and food and drink along the river I would highly recommend staying here and look forward to...

It would have been a 5 star review if we wouldn’t have been heavily overcharged for the carpets we bought on our departure. They said they give us a discount and they only make a very small profit, because we were guests. We ended up paying about 680 euro for 2 carpets.

The carpets we later found were also ‘vintage’ and made by the same tribe in the mountain.
If we were on the market it would have been ‘bad negotiation’ from our side. But we were interacting with the personnel for 4 days and they even said themselves ‘this is not the black market’. I honestly feel ripped...
Read moreStayed at Dar Zohra in May 2024 for a 6-day stay.
What a heavenly place!. This is a genuine 'hidden gem' in the heart of nature (Atlas Mountains), and a perfect tranquil luxury getaway (from e.g. the high energy that is Marrakech) with still exceptionally low room rates
Everything about this place is magic and resonates elegance but with a true family feel & charm.
Danielle (owner), Zohra (daughter) and team (e.g. Mohammed & Adam rock!) are super (spiritual) souls and welcome you with their open hearts.
Organic food (most from in-house garden!) is best I tasted in Morocco, slept like a baby for days and they views rejuvenated my soul.
I feel reborn?
Amazing, will...
