Endroit extraordinaire. Tout est parfait. Superbe suite bien décorée à la manière marocaine authentique, piscine avec belle terrasse, personnel courtois et attentionné, excellents repas. L’emplacement est fabuleux avec cette montagne rocheuse située tout juste derrière le Riad. Personnellement, j’y ai quasiment vécue une expérience mystique avec le vent que l’on entendait siffler à tous les soirs et l’impression d’être au milieu de nulle part. Je recommande cet endroit chaudement.

Ruhiger schlner Ort zum entspannen

Ein tolles Ressort etwas ausserhalb mit toller Lage und herrlicher Ruhe. Super freundliche Gastgeber und mit ein wenig Aufwand kann man den Hügel beim Hotel besteigen und hat eine herrliche Sicht über die Stadt und in die Weite darüber hinaus. Einfache aber sehr gut gepflegte Zimmer im urtümlichen Stil. Gutes und einfaches Frühstück. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Bel posto

A meno di 5 minuti di macchina dallo Ksar di Ait-Ben-Haddou, uno dei 9 siti del Marocco che l'Unesco ha dichiarato Patrimonio dell'Umanità, Paradaise of silence è un bellissima struttra con personale molto disponibile. Secondo me non si tratta di un vero Riad ma di una struttura turistica appositamente costruita, comunque siamo stati bene. La piscina era pulita ma non l'abbiamo utilizzata perchè la giornata era molto fredda e ventosa (inizio novembre). Posizione rialzata che ti domina sulla valle e permette di vedere la vicinanza con lo Ksar di Ait-Ben-Haddou. Per raggiungerlo vi consiglio di impostare sul navigatore lo Ksar di Ait-Ben-Haddou, già davanti al parcheggio (sulla strada) inizierete a trovare le indicazioni per raggiungere il Riad. Unico problema, se ne avete necessità: il WiFi non funziona e non è presente copertura mobile 4G/LTE.

The dinner price messed up the experience.

Most expensive dinner we’ve had in Morocco - 2x the average price for a standard-ish couscous. The building is quite nice and has a pool. If you happen to be there decline the dinner offer, there’s plenty of places in the village for a much more decent price.

Wonderful newer accommodations in a quiet location away from all the bustle of the Main Street. Easy walk to the ancient city. Muhammad has done a lovely job with the property. The common areas are nicely decorated and invite travelers to interact and share travel tips. Alas, it was too cool for us to enjoy the pool but we were served tea beside the beautiful pool area. Rooms are basic but very comfortable. Would definitely recommend this hotel. Staff was very friendly and attentive.

Trägt den Namen zu Recht! Man erreicht das Hotel von der Hauptstraße in Aiit Ben Haddou, wenn man auf der Höhe der Moschee links in eine holprige unbefestigte Dorfstraße einbiegt (Hinweisschild) und dann für etwa 500 Meter den weiteren Wegweisern folgt. Das Hotel liegt außerhalb des Ortes erhöht und sehr ruhig auf einem Hügel. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich, die Verständigung auch auf Englisch kein Problem. Die Zimmer sind um eine Halle mit gemütlichen Sitzmöglichkeiten gruppiert. Mein Zimmer war sehr einfach und sauber, hatte aber genau wie das Bad außer der Fensterbank zur Halle keine Ablagemöglichkeiten und auch keine Sitzmöglichkeiten. Aber es gibt ja die gemütliche Halle. Ich schlief in der paradiesischen Ruhe und dem bequemen Bett sehr gut. Am nächsten Morgen wurde ein gutes marokkanisches Frühstück mit Milchkaffee, frischem Orangensaft, Konfitüre und einem leckeren Nussaufstrich serviert. Man kann auch abends im Haus essen. Unbedingt empfehlenswert ist es, morgens oder bei Sonnenuntergang den Berg hinter dem Riad auf einem angelegten Pfad zu besteigen und den Rundblick auf das Tal und die weltberühmte Kasbah zu genießen. Wenn man nicht gut zu Fuß ist, bieten diverse Sitzmöglichkeiten am schön angelegten Pool und am Haus auch schöne Panoramablicke. Das Auto steht sicher und nachts bewacht direkt vor dem Haus. WLAN funktionierte ordentlich. Insgesamt: Eine schöne landestypische Unterkunft mit einer akzeptablem Preis-Gegenwert-Relation.
