Guest reviews for Dar Rocmarra
"Breakfast was fantastic. Owners were so nice and accommodating."
"Loved it all!"
"The place is very beautiful, and the hosts were incredible and very welcoming. The room we stayed in was small but had a thoughtful layout and was comfortable."
"Although we appreciate the ambient lighting in the room, it would be helpful to have an option for brighter lighting, as it was a bit hard to get our bearings in the low-light room."
"Jamilla is the wonderful host in this beautiful riad. She cooked a delicious meal for our first evening (we ordered chicken tagine with lemon) and a really good breakfast every day. She welcomed us with tea and cookies, and gave us a map of the city. Jallil was also super nice and brought us our wine on the wonderful roof terrace while we enjoyed the sunset calls to prayer. Our room was fantastic! Very big with a separate seating area. Comfortable bed. Lovely bathroom. There were two space heaters to warm up the room and that was very adequate. There are some steps, both up into the room, and from the room to the bathroom. The room was meticulously cleaned every day. The location is excellent! Walking distance to many monuments and the souks. They have umbrellas one can borrow when it rains. We would happily stay here again."
"We liked everything!"
"Jamila and Jalil were so welcoming and the property is very lovely with a great atrium and rooftop. Our room was perfect with a comfortable bed, roomy bathroom and lovely design touches."
"Nothing"
"Cozy Riad in the middle of the Medina, very close to the souks, Dar el Bacha and other tourist attraction. Extremely friendly and respectful staff. They accommodated when we needed to have breakfast early. When we arrived they gave us a really good introduction about the Medina, prices of the souks, taxis and tourist attractions to avoid any surprises. They gave us their phone number so we could ask if we had any concerns and they were very responsive. Rooms are big and comfortable. They are nicely decorated. Breakfast at the rooftop was very romantic. We ended up asking to stay one more night. Excellent place to stay for a couple"
"The following comments are not about the Riad, but in staying in any Riad inside the Medina. Your taxi will not be able to drop you off at the Riad as the streets are very narrow. The taxi will drop you off and you will need to walk for 5 minutes. Easy to get lost the first time, but you can use your phone. Secondly, the Riad is very quiet and peaceful. Outside there are several mosques around the Medina, so you will need to be prepared about night prayer. Again this will happen in any Riad inside the Medina. Some people may find it annoying, but for us it added to the charm."
"Well located and well appointed. Great staff. We had a small double off the main shared riom of the riad. It was quiet. Water was hot and they had a heater in the room. Breakfast was delicious and staff very friendly and helpful."

"The most lovely and caring people, the best facilities, and a wonderful experience overall. 10/10 recommend!"
"Nothing!!!"
"Great location, (easy to find in the maze of Marrakech!)Beautiful room, a lovely and very quiet place close to everything but at the same time a world away! Jamila is an amazing hostess... great communication leading up to our stay and once there, she was so gracious and attentive to our every need and question. She knew we were arriving late and was more than happy to prepare a late dinner for us. She called cabs, communicated with our driver and had someone meet as at the drop off location to help us with her luggage. She truly made us feel like special guests in "her home" Thank you!"

"Jamila was an exceptional host! The room was immaculate, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. Breakfast was both delicious and abundant. Highly recommend staying here!"
"Nothing - it was great!"
"The primary value of this riad lies in its management; Jamila is a force of nature: a solid manager and an excellent cook, and her colleagues Jalil and Latifa are no less impressive with their professionalism and discretion. The riad is beautiful and has been renovated with respect for local traditions. Our room (the berber one) was lovely and impeccably maintained by Latifa. What else more? Oh, yes, Jamila's coffee is undoubtedly the best in all of Morocco and her chili is... well... try it ;-) Cheers from Alessandro and Simonetta"
"This is not a critique of how the hotel is managed, but of the economic policy decided by the owner: there is a 2% surcharge for paying with a credit card. I understand that this is a common practice in Morocco, but from a property like this, I would have expected a clear notice on Booking or a notification via e-mail or through Booking's messaging system."

Guest reviews
"This stay in the Ziz valley felt extremely authentic and was a perfect way to end our time in this area of Morocco. Great location to stay for flights in and out of Errichidia. Hami and his family were excellent hosts and we loved our time talking, having tea, and enjoying the best tangine we had in Morocco!"
Amy Maison Zouala
"I needed a place to stay on my way through and this fit the bill. Happy to have stayed there. The staff was especially helpful."
Paul Hotel Palace Zaida
"Quiet location, garbage to store the bicycles. Shared bathroom was clean and close to the room, which had its own sink. Good hot shower. Friendly owners."
Casey Hotel Imilchil
"We had a lovely stay with my wife and our two kids. The place is peaceful and perfect for relaxing as a family. The hosts were very welcoming and the breakfast was delicious – fresh, generous, and the best way to start the day with that amazing view and the old village. Highly recommended!"
Samer Le Gite du Barrage
"I had a wonderful experience in the desert. I stayed in a bivouac room, which was beautiful and comfortable in the middle of nature. Everything was clean, well organized, and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. Mr. Mubarak and his team were amazing—very kind, welcoming, and hospitable. They really made sure we had a great stay."

"We really enjoyed our stay at “Kasbah du Bout”. The host was very friendly and made sure our needs were met. The Kasbah was very clean and well kept. We experienced a relaxing atmosphere and stay. We recommend staying here when visiting Zagora. Fred K. United States."
"Amazing camp accessible by car. We only had front-wheel drive Dacia, so it was a bit difficult to get there. If you go, lease a 4x4 for sure. We only wanted a day trip on camels, so we arrived by car. There are many camps that you can visit on a multi-day trip on camels deeper in the desert, however, if you only want a day trip on camels and have car, this is a must-visit. Personnel superb, food superb Bathroom facilities better than most hotels, in the tent (available outside of tent as well - they have public bathrooms) They booked a day trip on camels. We wanted to try this limited version before going on a multiple day trip on camels. I suggest telling them that you don't want to spend 4h on the lunch break. It's too long. 2h of break is enough. You go about 2h on camels' backs and then back after lunch. This camp was top 2 experiences we had in morocco. If you want larger and more iconic sand dunes, visit Merzouga. The dunes here are small, yet beautiful"

"The service and good care of Brahim were amazing. The lush and calm garden and salon of the Riad were great. We had an amazing time here and our daughter loved it as well."
