Reviewed Apr 29, 2026It's a place of refuge - when it became apparent that we were not going to make it through the pass before nightfall.
Said and his team were incredibly hospitable. We ate soup, meatball tagine and Berber omelette by the open fire.
Chatted with our hosts and other guests from Germany, Sweden and UK before retiring to a simple yet comfortable en suite room. It gets cold here at night however you can request a heater and there are plenty of blankets. The hot shower with good water pressure was very welcomed. Said even made us a breakfast takeaway as we wanted to leave early the next morning.
Be advised that there is noise, traffic and dust from the road works along the pass. Plan for delays at multiple road blocks on both sides (it took us 4.5 hours to drive 80km down to Ouirgane leaving early the next day) but use these as an opportunity to take in the views, connect with other travellers and appreciate the scale of destruction caused by the 2023 earthquake. Do not let this deter you from visiting the Auberge at the top of the pass.

Reviewed Apr 14, 2024The location in the Tizintest pass is amazing. We drove up from the Marrakesh side in bright sunshine and met a spectacular inversion of cloud rolling over the top of the pass within a km of arriving. The hotel. was in thick cloud and the temp dropped by at least 10 degrees Celsius. There was a warm welcome however and we ate good soup and omelettes beside the fire, whilst chatting to other travellers who had driven up from the other side in thick cloud all the way,
Don’t expect any luxury here, the rooms are basic and the water in the bathroom didn’t work very well and neither does wifi in the room. However there were plenty of blankets and a gas heater which you need to be careful not to leave on for too long, and definitely not while sleeping. The experience of staying up here in the mountains is special. Our boys were really excited by the whole experience and rated this as one of the top stays on our trip. You’ll meet interesting travellers staying in a location like this and we spent a pleasant evening by the fire chatting, and the boys played chess with other children they met there.
Great location for nature lovers and hikers. Tagline in the evening was good, as was the breakfast.
We loved it but if you need a bit of luxury, stop for some pics and food and then keep driving!
