Kasbah du Jardin — Restaurant in caïdat de Amerzgane

We stayed only one night. The staff - Abdullah a young graduate hotelier from Marrakesh - were jolly and helpful (arranged with the owner to take cash pounds sterling as we had run out of dirhams). ||The pool was very welcome in 40 degrees heat. ||We paid 400 for a triple room and probably could have negotiated a little bit but it felt like good value. ||View towards the citadel is pretty good.

In addition, the breakfast included a generous variety of lovely food, leaving us spoilt for choice. ||To summarize, we felt extremely at home and welcomed like family, and I would love to...

After visiting Ouarzazate and not finding anything too interesting we decided to head to Ait Ben Haddou. We found Du Jardin on the internet and we booked the room on arrival, initially downstairs. When we saw the terrace overlooking the Kasbah the manager offered us this room, so we switched with no problem.||||It’s worth the stay just for the view. Because of the virus the town was ghostly, with only 1 place open to eat. All in all though the Kasbah du Jardin was perfect for a quick pit stop on the way to the desert, I’d certainly recommend it. The manager has a great attitude, welcomes you and is...
