The hotel has a nice decor, the staff are very pleasant and attentive. Room was of a decent size. I had a problem with the shower pressure and it was fixed the very same morning, with the man at reception giving me an explanation of what had happened and was very apologetic. It is good that they resolve any minor issues quickly. Breakfast is nearby, and also the village of Ait Ben Haddou. Pool area seemed nice, but did not use it as when I visited it wasnt hot enough.
Located in Aït Benhaddou, Riad Ouinz features a garden, terrace, restaurant, and free WiFi throughout the property. The hotel provides an indoor pool and room service.

Very nice breakfast, one of the biggest we have had in our two weeks in Morocco. Wonderful owner who helped us get to the bus to Marrakech. Easy 10 minute walk to the kasbah and other restaurants. We had lunch one day and it was also great.

Lovely place with an amazing view! I highly recommend!
Most people come here for a few hours. I stayed for 3 days and could have stayed longer. It’s a lovely friendly town where you can spend time browsing through small shops, visiting art galleries, watching the night sky and soaking up the ambiance of this historical place. The highlight was a full day trip on horseback with Cheval Aït Ben Haddou. They have a Google page.

It's a really quiet town honestly.
It's a really quiet town honestly. It is a convenient place to stop, half way between Marrakesh and Merzouga but i feel like half a day would be plenty to see it all. I spent two days and it was definitely too long. The city itself is nothing special, rather touristy. Plenty of tour buses stop for the day, so it gets crowded between 11 to 5, but insanely quiet a night once they're all gone. I highly recommend La Terraza for dinner, they actually have delicious Italian food, with charcuterie and cheese, and their pizza and pasta are authentic. They also serve alcohol which is super hard to find in small morrocan towns like this one.

The kasbah was great to visit. Enjoyed the climb.
The kasbah was great to visit. Enjoyed the climb. Found some good shops for souvenirs. Brilliant views. Stunning scenery. Not much in the town / Main Street. Just a few cafes. The main attraction is the kasbah. Find a hotel with a roof top to enjoy the view and take in some star gazing too.

The Riad was outstanding and situated about 4 miles from Ait Benhaddou itself. Taxi about 50 dirhams to get there. Admission is free to the site, although people will try and get you to give them 100 dirhams to enter. The Hotel itself is sensational and the Manager Fatima and her team are brilliant. The view to the river gorge from the dining room is outstanding .

The ksar is beautiful and takes you back in time.
The ksar is beautiful and takes you back in time. Highly recommend climbing to the top for wonderful views. Had a hearty lunch at Auberge Azaddou Tamlalte which serves delicious tagine as well as spectacular views of the ksar. Would be careful about entering people's homes in the ksar despite warm invitations as they demand money after the house tour without saying anything about it upfront.

The setting is still unique, but due to the total lack of care and maintenance the place will be eroded in a few years. It is just a crumbling background to the fleecing of passing tourist trade. A walk to the top granary is still worth it for the view, but a couple of hours will be more than enough.
We loved everything! Beautiful authentic Moroccan accommodation in a nice area close to the city of Ouarzazate and Ait Ben haddou. The food was amazing and the owners were the most friendly of any hotel we have stayed at in the world. Johanna went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect for us and gave us plenty of recommendations for places to visit and advice on where to hire a car. Stay here if you visit Ouarzazate or the surrounding areas you will not regret it!
I really liked that there was free parking, the place was clearly marked and easy to find because it is by the main road yet is was quiet at night. The receptionists were extra friendly and served a very abundant breakfast. Price was very reasonable too. Wifi worked well. There was a roof top terrace with a nice view of the kasbah. Fortunately, this hotel did not suffer from the earthquake but some others were not as lucky. Please come here to support the local community.
The Riad is gorgeous and our room was comfortable and clean with a beautiful panoramic view. The owner's family welcomed us warmly and prepared for us the best food we have had in Morocco over a two week stay. The chicken tajine deserves a special mention for having an incredible consistency and taste. Don't miss the spectacular city of Ait Ben Haddou, it's just a 10 min drive from the Riad.
this place is awesome! Mohamed was the best host on our Morocco trip. He was so hospitable, friendly, and made sure everything was fine. Even gave us a beautiful drawing of Ait Ben Haddou as a present. Bed was soft and comfy (very hard to find in Morocco so we were very happy!), the dinner was incredible, and the view from the rooftop is the best you can get in the town. highly recommend!
This was my second time staying at this hotel. It’s clean. It’s walking distance from the Ksar, the main attraction. Staff is friendly and helpful. Water is hot. They have a pool. Food is good. Free parking out front. Beds are comfy. Great value. Wifi could be better but that’s common in this country. Thank you Nouradine
Amazing place walking distance to Ait Ben Haddou. Abdel Jalil was is such a warm and helpful host and made you feel at home the moment you walk in the door. The breakfast was enormous and so delicious! We will definitely stay here again as well as recommending it to all our friends and family.
Beautiful riad-style hotel run by a charming family. Great location 5 minutes away from Ait Ben Haddou, with a picturesque view on another fortified village. Delicious breakfast. Thank you very much Mohammed and Aisha for your hospitality, it was a pleasure to meet you!
lovely hotel in aït ben haddou. We loved the food, the hammam and spa and massage (!) and the staff was soooo friendly. We got to choose the room because there were free rooms. Awesome rooftop terrace. Would really really recommend to stay!
Cute and clean Kasbah, great location for a visit of Ait Ben Haddou. Breakfast was delicious and with big variety! Also ate dinner which was nice and price worthy. Shower was not the best but the water was hot.
Very traditional style and unique feeling. The building is beautiful. The hotel is inside the village so location is great. You can climb to the roof terrace for a good view. Mohammed is very nice and helpful.
Both the breakfast and dinner are delicious. The location is convenient and about 5 minutes to the centre of Ait Ben Haddou. The room is spacious and tidy. We love the quiet environment of the area.
Beautifully decorated rooms, it’s the best location to stay in Ait Ben Haddou. Quiet when all the day tourists are gone. Only 5min climb to see the sunset and sunrise. Very friendly hosts.
Staff looked after us very well. Although situated about 1.3km from Ait Ben Haddou, the location offered picturesque views of the oasis. The sunrise from the terrace was spectacular.
Fantastic location. Very clean and comfortable. Beautiful hotel. Really good breakfast (better than most in Morocco). Amazing views from the terrace where breakfast is also served.
Real Berber experience with the owner in a small village with beautiful valley view.
Heater in the room - especially in the winter months.
Good stop over near Ait Ben Haddou
The couple who run the hotel are lovely. They let us check in early. The views were lovely. They worked around us to accommodate our timings. Simple and lovely environment.
Very unique riad inside Ait Ben Haddou, actually only one with electricity. Magical experience. Food was amazing inside cave, and great breakfast on terrace.
