Hostels in Al Haouz

"I nearly cancelled my stay here, with my 10 year old, when I read the recent reviews leading up to our stay. But my son loves swimming and water parks, so I thought we’d give it a go and not expect too much; we were only staying for 3 nights. It far exceeded my expectations and we had a great time here. The hotel and waterpark is tired, in places, and it’s not luxury, but the lovely staff and my son’s smiles made up for that. The all inclusive food was nice. I can imagine it might get repetitive after a week, but there are so many options. It was busy at peak meal times, but we were there in high season so can’t expect a peaceful dinner. The staff work incredibly hard to keep fresh food coming out and tables cleared and cleaned. We were allowed to stay after we checked out, until 6pm as my son was enjoying it so much. We would definitely go back, for another short stay, if we go to Marrakesh again. "

"Wow, what an absolutely fabulous place! It’s exactly what we hoped for - peace and tranquility. The staff are superb and cannot do enough for you. The most instagram worthy place I have ever been to! Of note for those planning a trip, we stayed in the ‘low season’ (I.e. July/August). The hotel was only 20-30% full which made the stay feel even more intimate. We guess people are put off by the temperatures in Marrakesh, however it’s at least 5-10 degrees cooler in the mountains. Our stay was hot but definitely tolerable! "

"The property made our honeymoon special by greeting us with rose petals and roses upon entry to our rooms at the Hotel. They accommodated us free of charge with early check in. Very friendly and helpful staff save and except the attendants at the “boutique” who were piggish with nasty attitudes. They ought to be changed or fired immediately as they brought down the general management and pleasantness of the otherwise perfect experience. Will recommend anyone to visit but stay away from the gift shop masking as a boutique with terrible staff and service. "

"Paradise. The perfect honeymoon spot"

"This is truly a little gem, a half hour drive from the centre of Marakech. Julia and her team have created a beautifully decorated, calm and relaxing space to lap up the sun. It’s rare to find such a relaxing space with a beautiful swimming pool. I was a little apprehensive spending five days here alone, without a car, but I needn’t have worried. Julia arranged transfers and Layla’s delicious authentic meals were just perfect. Julia is really attentive and sensitive to guests needs and is always on hand if required; her friendliness and hospitality was very much appreciated. Lovely bedding, great pillows and plenty of hot water (although not required in this heat) and air conditioning, all with great company, what more could you ask for! There is also the added bonus of having the dogs around. Julia always checks if this is ok and they can be relocated elsewhere if required. Personally they added to the experience and they were welcomed visitors. In short, if you are looking for an authentic place, where you are welcomed and you can relax and swim in beautiful surroundings, meeting great people then this is for you. Many thanks to Julia and her team, I still miss you all and hope to be back soon. Take special attention when Julia is explaining taps, as hot water is boiling, kids will need supervision to avoid scalding. This would be the same anywhere. Again, many thanks for such a wonderful stay. 😍"

"This was a wonderful part of our visit to Morocco! Everything was so magical — so peaceful and relaxing! The staff was helpful and friendly and very attentive. We were very lucky to be guests! "

"The best tagine of our 1 day trip we summited Toubkal"

"My trip was relaxing and the service and accommodations were sublime "

"Arrival was a little confusing but lovely spot on the river. Room was lovely and clean. Only minor thing is lots of wasps/bees hanging about especially with breakfast can be a little off putting. "
