Staying at this hotel was like having my own little apartment with a private roof terrace, offering a real suite experience. The room was expansive with separate sleeping and living areas, two lovely terraces, and a large bathroom. The warm and attentive staff added to the charm of the property. However, the location in a small alleyway in the Medina might not be everyone's preference.

The hotel offers a lovely view of the main quadrangle with the swimming pool and a small Hammam combination with a steam room. The room was spacious, immaculate, and had its own terrace, fireplace, as well as a hidden courtyard off our bedroom. The service was incredibly helpful, especially with a baby in tow. The location was perfect, central in the Medina but in a quiet alleyway. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of fresh options available. Overall, a great stay with minor room for improvement in pricing.

The service was top-notch, making me feel at home every moment. The location was perfect for exploring the medina, and the dining experience was truly delicious and generous.

Staying at this hotel was an absolute dream. The rooms were like stepping into a luxurious paradise with high ceilings, stunning chandeliers, and cozy fireplaces. However, accessing the balcony required navigating steps near the door. The service was top-notch, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort.
