Reviewed Apr 1, 2026We stayed at Domaine de la Roseraie for two nights of relaxation after a hectic (but unforgettable) Sahara Desert trip, and it was the perfect place to unwind.
Tucked away in the peaceful foothills of Morocco’s High Atlas Mountains, this beautiful retreat feels like stepping into a dream. Just an hour from Marrakech, it offers a welcome escape from the city, with fresh mountain air and stunning views creating an immediate sense of calm.
The grounds are truly special—filled with thousands of blooming rose bushes, olive groves, and lush orchards. It’s easy to lose track of time simply wandering around. The cottage-style rooms are full of charm, decorated with traditional Moroccan touches, and each has a private patio or balcony that’s perfect for slow mornings or relaxing at sunset.
Days here are wonderfully unhurried. You can enjoy a swim in one of the pools, unwind in the hammam, or simply relax and take in the surroundings. There are also opportunities for horse riding and scenic walks through the nearby valleys, and even some friendly donkeys adding to the charm. The viewpoint overlooking Ouirgane Lake is particularly beautiful.
The evening meals deserve a special mention - high quality restaurant standard on both nights. 10/10.
What really sets this place apart is its atmosphere. As a family-run hotel, there’s a genuine sense of care, sustainability, and connection to the local environment.
Overall, a peaceful and memorable stay—an ideal place to recharge and experience a slower, more tranquil side of Morocco.

Reviewed Mar 16, 2026The property is unbelievable. It is massive, and there's so much to explore. We spent two of our days largely not leaving the property and just enjoying the serenity of the gardens & surrounding canyons. You can tell how much time and care is put into the grounds. Also the breakfast!!! Incredible. So many breads and spreads and the staff is delightfully attentive without being overbearing.
Very pretty hotel, lovely decorated on a lovely property in a beautiful setting ; surrounded by mountains covered with snow . Very nice and quiet place, we enjoyed very much the tranquility of the hotel. During our stay there were few other guests ( because of Ramadan and early season ) , so I don’tknow how it is when there are much more guests ( there are over 40 rooms I believe) .
Really a very nice hotel, gorgeous place. So little or nothing to complain about. We had a junior suite, a small coffee machine in the room would have been nice maybe. Curiously, the room had no shower, only a bath with a handshower.
I am afraid I have been thinking about the score for this hotel for 2 days but…my experience has been rather average.
First the positives: the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating and helpful and the diner was first notch.The gardens are absolutely magic also in winter so I can only imagine the beauty in spring with the thousands of roses blooming.
Negatives: warm shower, patchy Wi-Fi and TV and telephone non working. Frankly a patchy Wi-Fi with a war raging in the Middle East and our flights going through there was a bit stressful. Also probably because they are preparing for the season everything seems a bit “hit and miss”….pity but I am sure that my opinion is only related to the off season stay.

Reviewed Dec 1, 2025During the Thanksgiving holiday, I stayed at Domaine de la Roseraie. The experience was exceptional, and I confidently recommend the Roseraie as an ideal starting point for visitors to Morocco interested in relaxation, cultural exploration, and experiencing local hospitality. The proprietor, Nabil, along with his staff, provide attentive service and demonstrate genuine hospitality. The Thanksgiving dinner, which included traditional elements such as cranberry sauce, was notable for its quality. Enjoying Moroccan tea in a tranquil setting and walking through the gardens to appreciate the flora and fragrances contributed significantly to the overall positive impression of my visit.

We really enjoyed the dinners (set price for 3 courses with a choice of 3 options for each course). Interesting and tasty dishes and very good value. The large and comfortable beds and the very peaceful environment gave us great sleeps. We loved the history and old world charm of this hotel. The staff were very attentive and caring and made our stay easy and enjoyable.

Reviewed Nov 17, 2025The location is stunning and the grounds of the hotel very beautiful indeed. The staff are charming, they lack the expertise that goes with a truly top hotel but definitely want to help. The room was extremely comfortable.
We didn't eat very much, unfortunately we'd picked up travellers' tummy earlier in our holiday, but the food we did try was not quite as good as some of the reviews suggest (so maybe fine for less foody travellers than us). We were there for a major weather event and were a bit surprised to find we had neither a phone in the room nor an umbrella, I guess we could have used our mobiles to call for help, but a walk to reception during the major rainstorm would certainly have been challenging.

Reviewed Nov 9, 2025A beautiful, calm retreat. We had a nicely decorated room but the highlight of this property is the setting. Beautiful grounds with a large variety of trees and flowers. Fantastic mountain vistas. Friendly staff contribute to the experience. The food is good but not great.
The pools were beautiful, as were all the grounds which were excellently maintained. The lounge area, restaurant and bar were tastefully decorated and presented. We particularly loved the bar terrace and dining room with its Moroccan decor and textiles. All the staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful and the owners clearly set high standard for them.
The breakfasts were very substantial but the choice was limited and repetitive for a hotel of this standard. For example no dishes of fruits were available and those single fruits which were offered - e.g. banana were frequently overripe or underripe. We would have expected a higher standard for a hotel of this quality.
The evening meals were a bit hit and miss too - if you are not in the dining room early evening it could take a long time to be served because the waiter shows the menu to each table in rotation from a black board.There are no prices listed and we found out later that you pay the same whether you have one or three of the courses offered. The size of the portions varied widely from sufficient for one to enough for two/ three but with no indication as to how large they would be from the waiters. The food was of a good quality with some exceptionally tasty salads and desserts.
We moved rooms due to the aspect of the first room we had booked as it looked out onto dry woodland from a scruffy terrace and was very dark.The second room had no shower which was a nuisance for five nights but the aspect of the room was much more pleasant. However a locked door led from the lounge area to another room and we could hear noise from other guests staying during the day and evening and they could presumably hear us too. It was clearly meant to double up as a family suite.

Reviewed Aug 20, 2025We accompanied my husband on a work trip to Morocco, where the entire resort was booked out by production for a 10-night stay – including dinner per night, per room. This alone was a 6/7 figure sum in euros for the hotel. You’d think that would be more than enough. But no.
Instead, greed, lack of integrity, and outright dishonesty meant we walked away from a 9-night stay with a £2,000 bill.
We were charged an extra £100 per night – essentially half the price of the room again.
No kettle in the room, so you’re forced to order from the bar (with no prices shown anywhere). One complimentary water on arrival, then £5 per bottle after that.
Laundry? Over £50 for a hand-luggage-sized case.
My children, who ate virtually nothing but a yoghurt and one pancake at breakfast, were still charged £20 each per day.
A plate of plain pasta with a sprinkle of cheese? £20.
Dinner: without asking, we were served a 3-course meal (often when I only wanted one dish) – later billed at £40 each.
Meanwhile, if my husband didn’t eat because he came home late from work, that meal was still charged.
During the stay I had one coffee and two bottles of water per day. My husband – one and a half pints after a long day in the caves. Somehow this justified bar bills of £50+ per day.
Yes, the hotel itself is undeniably beautiful, as are the grounds. But the dishonesty and greed left a truly sour taste.
If you want a genuine Moroccan experience, I urge you to choose a Moroccan-owned hotel, where honesty and integrity still mean something – and not just the flashing of £££ signs in their eyes.
Absolutely disgraceful. And I’ll be letting my 2,000+ followers on social media know exactly what went on here.

It was definitely worth having a second destination in the mountains and seeing a different valley. The hotel is ideal for this as well - with a lovely pool area to come back to after hiking (the main pool area has such comfortable loungers!) and great food. It was very quiet when we visited, so I don't know how busy the pool gets in other seasons, but we had it almost to ourselves. The gardens are absolutely beautiful. and the scent stays with you as you wander around. Rooms are a very good size.

We loved the fact that there are several swimming pools and that around the main pool you can lie on mobile beds with sprung mattresses - it was so comfortable.

The rooms are clustered in small groups making for very private accommodation. And the central bar/lounge/patio is worth days of dallying with a drink and a book.

The value does not justify the high price…. Rooms were outdated (eg bathroom didnt close properly), not super clean (we had cockroaches in the room), and the staff was not at all aiming for high level service. Constantly on their phone, and if we asked for simple things like ice with our wine they really acted like we were asking a lot and look ed very bored. Concrete example is that we arrived hours after checkin time, and the room was not ready. We were pointed towards the bar without so much as a coffee to be offered, and neither did we receive any information on the resort or region. All would have been fine in a 2 or 3 star hotel but when paying more than 250 euro’s a night for a room you expect at least staff that shows a keu priority is to realize a good time

The food was fresh, tasty, and clearly made with many ingredients from the kitchen garden. I also had an excellent massage in the small but charming spa—just what was needed after a hike.
Hotel staff were warm, friendly and accommodating. Bedrooms were either traditional or dated, depending on your point of view (my kids described them as ‘retro’) but they were clean and comfortable.
We took a memorable trek through the hills and nearby Berber villages with local guide, Ali, which gave us a deeper sense of the region’s beauty and culture, ending up with delicious mint tea and fresh baked bread.

On Booking.com they had advertised an indoor heated pool and spa. They failed to mention that it was damaged in the recent earthquake and therefore closed which was a disappointment for us, (although sad for the country to have suffered such a disaster).

Reviewed Jun 26, 2023The grounds here are absolutely stunning. It’d be hard to find a more beautiful, extensive, lovingly cared for flower garden like this at an inn or hotel anywhere. The main, large pool is also pristine, clean, with wonderfully comfortable chaise lounges and shaded areas at the center of the property. Two other pools are tucked away elsewhere on the property and are a little less pristine than the main one but also gorgeous. We spent a whole lazy day in and around the pool main, had it basically to ourselves, and it was magical. The pathways to walk around d the property and views in every direction of the Atlas mountains are really something special as well. While I noticed before our stay in reading the reviews that many people had poor experiences with the restaurant, I’m wondering after put own stay if perhaps the food quality varies with the seasons based on what’s readily available / in season — in early summer we were so happy for all the fresh vegetables and fruits served at breakfast and dinner; while the meals weren’t life-changing, they were still very good and clearly made with care. We weren’t disappointed.
I would agree with some of the other reviews about certain details of the property (namely in the rooms) being a bit dated and in need of a little care. We had a large and super comfortable room but the AC was very loud and not very functional (specifically: it didn’t seem to have the power to actually make the room the temperature it was set to but did wake us with strange noises in the middle of the night a few times), the older mini fridge was not plugged in or cold on arrival, and the decor is definitely of another era. We were not hugely bothered by these details since it was only a 2 night stay in a 17 day journey through Morocco & our main reason to be there were the outdoor garden / pool areas and views but if you’re a traveler who really wants high-end, lux creature comforts / decor / etc. in your room this may not be quite the right stop. More of a quaint and traditional romantic stay than a modern and luxurious one room-wise.

A real shame as this is not the service or quality I am used to in Morocco!

Reviewed Apr 13, 2023De La Roserie is set in absolutely stunning verdant landscaped grounds, that are planted with rare and indigenous plants and trees which are in turn surrounded by the backdrop of the Atlas Mountains. There are little areas to discover each day as you roam the extensive grounds. Rooms are separate to the main lodge, in lovely bungalows or maisonettes, all surrounded by their own flora and fauna. The main building has a elegant ranch style feel. There are even stables where we fed the old retired horses apples each day. Dinner is served each evening by the staff and paired with very decent Moroccan wines. I really can’t describe well enough how lovely the grounds are, irrigated by a sort of levada system that provides the sound of fresh running water wherever you stroll. As further example to get to our room you walked up a path, over one of these little streams, through a lemon grove and up to our front door. All in all this is a little slice of heaven. I’m looking forward to returning one day.
One of the smaller swimming pools needs renovating. The mosaic tiles at the edge have started to chip away and the water a little murky but I’m sure it is next on their list. Our large balcony would have been put to better use with two sun loungers and a few pot plants to screen a nearby concrete roof.

Reviewed Apr 13, 2023Magnifique site avec employés dévoués et sympathique (mis à part le gestionnaire Mohammed qui est plutôt bête). Notre voyage a toutefois été terni lorsque nous avons pris connaissance du triste sort que réservait l’établissement à ses animaux au parc équestre situé à l’arrière. Mulets et chevaux maigres avec des plaies multiples non-traitées. Vraiment désolant de voir un établissement aussi prestigieux prendre aucun soin de ses bêtes laissées dans le noir (porte de leurs enclos fermées). Nous avons avisé plusieurs membres du personnel mais à chaque fois, réponses évasives et nonchalance… J’invite tous les invités à aller y faire un tour et partager vos observations aux gestionnaires. Inacceptable comme traitement.

Reviewed Mar 22, 2023The facilities are excellent - two lovely pool areas, with very comfortable sunbeds. Beautiful surroundings, set in grounds with flowers and greenery. Very nice bar area, with cosy fire for the evenings.
The rooms are a little dated. There's no safe, so you have to carry things with you.

Reviewed Mar 11, 2023Overall it was a great location, friendly staff, a good room and tremendously relaxing environment. The food was fine but never exceptional. The two major disappointments were that the spa had closed down and the tennis court was in very poor condition.
It would be good if you could get espresso coffee with breakfast (not available until 10am) and if the tennis court was in working order.

Reviewed Mar 8, 2023Outstanding! Old world estate feel with lodge style indoor and outdoor fireplaces, overstuffed chairs, library bar, lounges by the pools, all surrounded by lush gardens, including lemon groves, rose gardens, pomegranate trees etc. overlooking a river on 77+/- pristine acres. Spacious villas with fine linens, plush pillows, comfy beds, great water pressure, opening to private patios overlooking the gardens. Welcoming staff with great attitude always willing to help but not intrusive. LOVE this place it’s a magical step back in time to a quieter refined era.
Loved everything!

Reviewed Feb 25, 2023Exceptionally friendly staff. Beautiful grounds - even in winter. The standard room was spacious and comfortable. We loved the big marble bath.
We were worried about the welfare of the horses and donkeys. One horse had a skin condition (probably mange or fungal infection and probably curable with the help of a vet) and looked tired and emaciated and his eyes were shut most of the time. A donkey was tethered by a wire around one ankle only about a metre long. Future guests please monitor!
Some facilities were closed for the low season.
very tranquil. good position.
spa not operational. room a bit smelly.
