Dar Imlil

The room and Dar Imlil in general was a very beautiful and quiet place – despite being right next to the "centre" of Imlil. The staff is super friendly and they arranged a trekking tour for me while accommodating my specific wishes for the tour. I would definitely recommend!

L’hôtel est bien placé au centre d’ imlil et pas loin du sentier qui mène aux cascades 🙂 Notre chambre était grande et propre et disposait d’un frigo et d’une cafetière pour le café ce qui est parfait pour les lèves tôt comme nous 🙂 La piscine est jolie et très propre mais très froide, pas d’ombre autour de la piscine et uniquement 1 parasol Le serveur Hussein est très sympathique

L’accueil assez froid le jour de notre arrivée Les escaliers assez raides pour arriver à l’hôtel donc je déconseille aux personnes âgées ou ayant des difficultés pour se déplacer Uniquement des chaînes arabes à la télévision

C’était nikel pas le bruit d’une mouche 😂👌. Ma femme aurait aimé un peu plus de produits local pour le petit déjeuner.

Rien à dire

Central location, nice pool, clean and very comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Avevamo prenotato una stanza standard ma per lo stesso prezzo ci hanno fatto un upgrade in una suite con una vista indimenticabile sulla montagna. Hussein è stato gentile e disponibile e ci ha trovato una guida con cui abbiamo fatto una bellissima passeggiata per i villaggi berberi della valle. Anche la cena è stata ottima. Sicuramente due giorni che non dimenticheremo

De host en anderen zeer vriendelijk en hulpvaardig. Je kunt hier alles regelen, en alles vragen. Het ligt prachrig. mooie uitzichten uit onze kamers. De kamers zijn ruim en fijn met dit plekken ook. Mooie authentiek sfeervol ingericht. De gedeelde ruimte beneden is ook mooi en authentiek echt dar, authentiek maar wel verzorgd en ruim ook. Buiten ook heerlijke terrassen met veel plekjes om te chillen op kleurrijke banken. Heerlijk sfeervol bij zwembad ook.

Voor mij persoonlijk te veel kleedjes op de vloeren en tafeltjes op de kamer ook ivm mijn allergie voor stof, maar die heb ik gewoon even weg gehaald :-)

The staff were incredible, the view was wonderful, very good facility

Nothing to mention

Lovely Cosy Riad conveniently located in Imlil. Super accommodating staff - very helpful to organise treks and transfers. Fresh juice great! Views and location great.

Internet unstable and slow. Challenging to arrange onwards hotel bookings.

An excellent hotel that exceeded our expectations in every way. We were warmly welcomed with tea and cookies and even received a complimentary room upgrade to a spacious, beautifully decorated room with a stunning view on the mountains. The staff were exceptionally kind and hospitable, taking great care of us throughout our stay. Our luggage was conveniently transported from the car to the room over a steep path, which was very much appreciated. There is also a secure parking area a short distance away, where we safely left our rental car during our two-day climb of Mount Toubkal. The hotel arranged an outstanding guide and cook for the trek, with a mule carrying our luggage and provisions ahead of us. A delicious lunch was prepared en route. As a tip, we recommend booking a private room at the refuge during the Toubkal climb instead of a dormitory—this makes a big difference for a good night’s rest at 3,200 meters. Breakfast at the hotel was excellent, and the pool is a wonderful place to relax. The level of service truly stood out: after our long return from Toubkal (around 12 hours of hiking), the hotel staff even picked us up from the nearby village, saving us a final hour of walking. All in all, a highly recommended hotel with exceptional service and genuine hospitality.

Please be aware that you have to climb some steps before reaching the hotel, but this is no problem, specifically as the luggage was carried from the car to the hotel by the staff.

Het personeel was zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk. De locatie was prachtig, veel mooier dan de foto’s

Niets

Heel leuk hotel, authentiek en op prachtige locatie in het dorp. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. We kregen gratis upgrade. Onwaarschijnlijk grote kamers. Mooi ingericht met goede bedden.

De foto's op booking.com vallen tegen het is in werkelijkheid veel mooier.

Fantastic

Dar Imlil is a beautiful place to stay. Both the building and the views are stunning. The staff are also incredibly welcoming and helpful. They organised an excellent guide who took us walking in the hills. Totally recommend staying here.

Dar Imlil's position near the centre of Imlil is perfect. As it stands on a hill, there are excellent views all around. Our room had two balconies, giving sunshine and views at all times of the day. We really appreciated the underfloor heating as we went in early January, when temperatures at night were below freezing. There was plenty of hot water, and we had a kettle and a fridge in the room. The staff were exceptional, friendly and helpful. I loved the hammam, too. The food was particularly tasty, especially the tagines. My muleteer, Mohammed, was wonderful and helped me a great deal on our trip up to Tizi Tamatert, as I had injured my knee just before I came to Imlil.

I would have appreciated a non-slip mat to put in the bath whilst I was showering, as I felt unsafe standing up in the bath. Also, a curtain would prevent water from the shower going on to the bathroom floor. But I loved the hot water and the underfloor heating.

Le calme, la propreté et les conseils du staff pour choisir les meilleurs circuits de randonnée.

Ce que je n’ai pas aimé, c’est qu’il faisait froid dans la chambre. La climatisation était bruyante et il n’y avait pas de couettes supplémentaires. En revanche, la qualité du petit-déjeuner reste bonne, mais elle était nettement meilleure auparavant ; on constate une légère dégradation.

Well heated in Winter time for the superior suites

Chimney smoke smell in room. Chimney on terrace below should be higher to avoid that problem

Das liebevoll eingerichtete Zimmer war sehr groß und gemütlich. Die Aussicht wunderbar. Alles hat gut geklappt, auch die Wanderung mit Hassan. Danke!

Die steile Treppe

great breakfst, location excellent, view perfect.

Warmer swimming pool

This was our family's first two nights in Morocco and Dar Imlil made a huge, delightful impression. Our rooms were large and ornately furnished, with rose petals and towel sculptures on the bed, almond biscuits and tea-making supplies at the ready. The dar seems like it has been there a while and welcomed many visitors, but it is not shabby. It's not polished either, but sits at that ideal point of warmth and authenticity. The grounds are beautiful and quixotic, like the building itself, with well-tended plants everywhere. The views are beautiful, and there are quite a few places to lounge, read a book or chat. My sense is that it is one of the largest hotels in town, and its private outdoor spaces are a big part of the charm. It's a lovely place just to be. The staff were a big part of the experience too. Wonderfully friendly and provided responsive service with smiles at breakfast and dinner. We took their traditional dinners and were treated to delicious salads, tajines, and fruit plates. English is spoken well enough. Dar Imlil is sited is near the commercial center of the town and on the side of the river. Go downhill and you're in town. Go uphill and you're hiking toward Aroumd. I recommend hiring a guide and going to Aroumd, both to better appreciate life in the High Atlas and for the views.

The air conditioner in one room didn't produce enough heat even after someone came to look at it.

The staff were very friendly, the evening meals good, and the rooms spacious and well equipped

The WiFi was unavailable for part of my stay. Fortunately I had mobile data from eSIM

The location is great for hiking in the Atlas Mountains. The riad is eclectic but very comfortable. Enjoyed the little extras - fruit basket, nuts etc. we ate dinner both nights at the riad first was excellent the second one was ok. Loved that we ate by the fire both nights. Hussain and Hussain were amazing - very welcoming and super helpful. In fact all of the staff were very nice. We also had a guide, Ibraham take us on a hike in the mountains. He was excellent and we stopped at a house in a small Berber village for lunch - this was the best experience. The people are so kind and generous in the villages.

In Imlil so close to everything.

Un grand merci à toute l’équipe de l’auberge Dar Imlil pour votre accueil chaleureux, et un special merci aux deux Houssein pour votre gentillesse et votre professionnalisme. Grâce à vous, notre séjour a été inoubliable et rempli de belles découvertes. Nous garderons un excellent souvenir de votre hospitalité. Shukran !

Es un lugar con atmósfera local maravillosa. Lleno de mil detalles y unas vistas increíbles

We had a nice stay. Hotel is charming and the staff is very helpfull.

The hotel is typical marockan with a rustic touch on it. We got a nice family room on the top floor with 2 balconies overlooking the pool and the mountains. The kids enjoyed the pool during the days (it was a bit cold but nice). It’s located a bit up on the hill but very central and close to all shops and restaurants. We really enjoyed our stay!

It’s a bit old and need a bit of maintenance. I would rate it as a week 3 star. Chairs were broken at the pool area etc.

Very nice staff. Upgraded us to an even nicer room, and didn't make a big deal of it!

Photos don’t do it justice. The pool area is so pretty and they give you huge green towels. Chill out area above in the shade, room nice, especially bathroom. Good central location.

Couldn’t get the air con to work.

The view from the balcony was great!

The hotel was fabulous rugs and cushions everywhere, beautiful views from terraces. Food was delicious and staff couldn't be nicer or more helpful. Sad to leave.

Nothing. Some people might find the steps up difficult.

We stayed one night at Dar Imlil. On arrival Mouna was very helpful and friendly. Our room was clean. View from our window was scenic and wonderful. All the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Chef Hassan is an excellent cook.He prepared dinner which was delicious. Our guide Yassine was very knowledgeable in detail of the area. A pleasant person who did not mind us asking any questions related to the area. We would highly recommend this place to stay.

The property was clean and comfortable. The staff were very kind and helpful.

Our socks were knocked off by the beautiful location. The views from our two room balconies was breathtaking. Our comfy room was heated. The dinner was fantastic. The staff were kind and carried our bags up many steps despite the fact that it was Ramadan and they must have been exhausted. Five stars,

Cool place with great views and good food. The staff is fun and attentive.

Dar Imlil was a great start to our break in Morocco. There as a delay in our driver collecting us from the airport the hotel manager sorted it for us and despite arriving much later than expected, the fire was roaring and a gorgeous hot meal was waiting. The staff were amazing and we couldn't have asked for a move enjoyable visit.

Nothing to add here

Unique, traditional and comfy. Friendly and helpful staff.

Nothing

A wonderful place in the mountains. great views from the rooftop terrace with many other places to sit and listen to the river that runs just below. hiking directly out the back door. the hotel will arrange a friendly guide, abdul, showed us the villages that dot the surrounding mountains. the staff was incredibly helpful and the food was fantastic. the room was spacious and warm. we all had a wonderful time. would recommend to anyone traveling to the atlas mountains region.

All waa excelent , beautiful property , a very welcoming and friendly staff , it has all and definetly will come back again and also recommend it to family and friends.

Nothing

The location of the hotel was perfect as it was next to the river and had wonderful views of the mountains. The weather was mixed whilst we were there but the hotel set up meant we were able to be cosy by the wood burning stove in the evening and then get out on the terrace when the sun came out. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Some lovely stalls in the village to buy walnuts, almonds and figs.

Heaps of character and Moroccan-style luxury. It’s is a in central location in the village with superb Mountain view’s.The staff particularly Hussain were very friendly and welcoming. The evening meal was good value and tasty as was the breakfast.

Nothing it suited us perfectly

What a great surprise to arrive in such a nice room in this little mountain village! It was very confortable with a nice view, we had a great stay. The staff organized a guide for our hike on the day after our arrival. All worked very smoothly. We were provided an excellent picnic.

Authentic homely Riad. The photos don’t do it justice Hussein was excellent, so helpful. Made us feel very welcome. Thank you!

Hussain has taken care of us very well, and thanks to the cook for having prepared excellent food.

Not much to criticize; the water installations were a bit flimsy and need repair.

Husain was a great help organising a walk and always so helpful. All the other staff were great too. A beautiful place with great architecture and facilities.

Amazing stay at Dar Imlil that exceeded expectations. Super friendly staff. Hussein could not do more to help us. Great food. Wonderful Moroccan hospitality at its best.

Nothing.

Very very kind stuff. Nothing was impossible. Very helpfull. Special thanks to Hussain.

Everything was realy nice. Maybe breakfast can be better.

Wow, we loved this traditional Dar in Imlil. The staff are the friendliest of people and Essaine Aziam was very helpful with everything we needed. The views are amazing. And the rooms are traditionally decorated, very spacious, super beds. Truly magical.

The breakfast could have more and healthier options.

This hotel was very good - staff were immediately very friendly upon arrival - offering us refreshment and our rooms were ready straight away. The rooms were comfortable and airy. There are plenty of places on the terrace / balcony outside the rooms to sit in the sun. The location is also good - there are brilliant views of the mountains from the terrace area. Only downside is that you often have to eat all your meals at the hotel - as there are few restaurants in the village and they mostly do expensive tourist food. The breakfast was good - a selection of cereals, hot drinks, bread, eggs, pancakes, crumpets - but you have a very limited dinner selection - often tagine or tangier and if you have dietary restrictions or are vegetarian there may not be much for you to eat. Apart from this an enjoyable experience and we would likely return.

Wonderful laid back atmosphere.. a sort of hostel feel but with the amenities of a hotel.. like home from home .. lots of pleasant indoor and outdoor communal places to sit and read and carry your tea around with you ..great location at the end of the road running through the town -easy access to the shops. Lovely, intelligent staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Organised a great trek for us - no stress- with an excellent guide and a generous packed lunch. Did a vegetarian tagine for us on request. The food is simple and healthy - lots of fruit and vegetables.

Nothing

Beautiful views and lovely staff. We stayed in 2nd floor room (Toubkal) - very spacious and amazing views. Was quite warm in late July but ok with doors open (no aircon). 1st floor rooms kids stayed in had aircon but less spacious. Hospitality by staff was exceptional - special thanks to Essaine, Hassan and Abdoul. Breakfast was good and we ate in the hotel a couple of evenings with very nice food. Organised a family hike via hotel with local guide for one day which was excellent. Kids appreciated the pool in the hot weather (very cold!). Outdoor seating areas have spectacular views.

Nothing. Wi-Fi was a bit patchy but certainly didn't detract.

This is a wonderful hotel. The staff are attentive and eager to help. The food is excellent - they do delicious 'set meals', and are also happy to knock up anything you fancy if you want something lighter. Comfortable rooms, lovely communal areas. Cannot recommend highly enough.

We loved the spacious room with beautiful views from two balconies. Pool was perfect. Common areas lovely. Staff, especially Essain, were great! Beds very comfy. The hotel organized transport from Marrakech and to Ouarzazate - drivers were fantastic!

Nothing.

Nice hotel, ideal startpoint for the Toubkal tour. Staff is kind and experienced in trekking, helpful in solving problems (missing gear, etc).

We've been to mountain huts and villages all over the world, Dar Imlil is exceptional. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable- the staff helpful and attentive- we had more food than we could eat. The property is authentic and beautiful, I will return.

Our family had a lovely stay! Gorgeous views, lovely cool pool and kind staff and delicious food. Would definitely return.

Perfect view of mountains especially toublak

Incredibly hospitable staff, beautiful rooms and delicious meals on site.

Nothing!

Super helpful and accommodating staff, good food and no unnecessary frills. Convenient for walks in the Atlas.

All good.

Fantastic location, easy to access, clean rooms and great hospitality. We arrived very late, the team made us fresh Moroccan food at 11pm, which was absolutely delicious! They also have a brilliant breakfast! The service is extremely good! Also great views of the mountains from all parts of the hotel. The second floor rooms have floor heating. Massive thank you to the two Hussain’s. tip - ask for Yassin for cab transfers.

Perfect location with options for great hikes. Hussain was absolutely lovely and so helpful. The food was some of the best we’ve had in Morocco so far! Room was large and had beautiful Mountain View’s and was lovely and toasty

Nothing, it was absolutely perfect!

اولاً، لقد انبهرت بالمكان وبالجودة والفندق والمعاملة من الطاقم المرح، اللطيف، الموجه البشوش والاكثر اهميّة هو انو المعاملة اللبقة والمحترمة بالزااااااف. وصدقاً يعجز اللسان عن الوصف انصح وبشدّة زيارة هذا المكان، السحاحر مع المنظر الرهيب الاطلالة الرائعة. Dar Imlil, first of all I do recommend it! It's the best place I have visited and kept it for a few days, honestly few days I do have NOT ENOUGH THE BEST OF THE BEST workers the best treatment and the most delicious food I have tried it in this village. The second fall, the view is incredible, awesome, and satisfying, and u It's there is a very comfortable room and place to relax on it, A huge THANK YOU TO THE MEMBER STUFF God bless you and we had so much fun See you soon as soon as gossip ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

We loved our stay here. The property has incredible views of the mountains and we enjoyed our afternoons reading on one of the lovely terraces. In the evening the fire was lit and we had two delicious dinners downstairs. It is very easy to hire a guide to take you for a day hike and explore the mountains and local culture.

Wow!! Most beautiful hotel! Every detail is chosen with care, we felt very at home. Food is great aswell! The staff was amazing and helped us with everything. I loved our room with the views on the Mountains. Don't hesitate, it is a gorgeous place!

Nothing

Gorgeous room, lovely out look

Heated floor, warm, clean, big room, nice view, nice people

Location, staff, the food and the riad everything was great.

Came for yoga & hiking at end of November. Staff were kind & responsive, lit fires to keep us cosy though the sun shone non stop; loved lazing on the pretty patios. Rooms varied but ours was big & warm. Hotel has a pool, hammam & yoga room with stunning views, star gazing & hiking through the valley where we enjoyed perfect autumn colours throughout - lovely trip!

We booked in to the Kasbah du Toubkal, because our children had stayed there, and absolutely loved it. Unfortunately this top hotel suffered some damage in the dreadful earthquake that struck the region, so had to close until December. Dar Imlil is owned by the brother of the manager of the Kasbah and we were offered the Imlil room. The hotel is really atmospheric and authentically Berber. Service was excellent and the food delicious. We had a 2 day hike to the Remote Trekking Lodge, organised by the Kasbah team. This was a tough rough Hike, but really well managed by our excellent and very knowledgable guide, Mohammed, assisted By Hassan and his lovely mule Jaqualina. There is some damage around still from the earthquake, and tourism has suffered. But the Berber people are lovely and very welcoming. The whole area is safe and every visitor makes an important contribution to the economy and reconstruction efforts.

What moved me most at Dar Imlil, (beyond the beautiful room, the setting, the delicious food and the cosy atmosphere in the lobby), was the friendliness of the staff. Hussein arranged everything from a trek with mule and guide, a hammam, washing clothes etc . Always with a smile, always available. The other Hussein, the cook, conjured up tea, fruit, a salad, and the most delicious tagines out of nowhere. Their dedication really knows no bounds. I truly recommend this hotel.

Location and friendly staff

This hotel is located right beside the waterfall & right in town, but on the quieter side. There are many stairs to access the hotel and the upstairs rooms. Our room was fantastic. It was on the second floor with an amazing balcony & a great view. It was cozily decorated & very comfortable. Great access to hiking. In the summer the pool must be a great treat. It looked beautiful. Delicious tagine dinner in the hotel our first night. The staff were very gracious and helpful.

The property had amazing views. Lovely touches in the room were the local robes and slippers. Very friendly and helpful staff.

The plug didn’t fit our bath so after a long hike we couldn’t have a bath. The pool was very cold.

This is a great place to stay in the High Atlas Mountains. It’s a staging post for treks so there is not much around but the hotel has everything needed as a base. The food was good. Breakfast was hearty and simple. The rooms clean and tidy, not luxury but good for the location. The pool was totally freezing, must have been fresh mountain water! Our tour operator in the UK (via their Moroccan agent Karima) arranged a brilliant mountain guide called Ibrahim for a day trek. We spent time in his own home for lunch in a nearby village. We had a mule, not to ride but to carry the bags, and another opportunity to put some cash into the local community - much needed after the tragic earthquake. We felt a small tremor, which they said is normal. Next time we would like to do a stop overnight on the mountain refuge. The staff in the hotel are polite, mostly men, a reflection of the Berber culture. We always felt safe walking around the small town, but do expect a fair amount of attention to draw you into shops and cafes.

Nous avons sejourner a l hotel durant le tremblement de terre Merci a toute l equipe pour leur accueil et leur generosite A bientot
