"We were looking for an authentic, off-the-beaten path experience and this was it. Having the opportunity to stay the night in the dessert, ride camels and quads through sand dunes, watch a beautiful sunset, listen to traditional Bedouin music and have a delicious meal were outstanding.

El Mouradi Douz

8/10 Good
"This hotel has so much potential if they renovate a bit, it stands at a low-income country quality, more a 3-star than a 4. I guess it was amazing at his peak back in the days. Staff is super nice and welcoming. The room are okay, outdated but comfortable, except the pillows that are cheap. No bugs. Bathroom are clean but need a good scrub to be perfect. I was there out of season so it was super calm, unfortunately amenities listed were not available like the interior pool and spa, the restaurant à la carte, and Cafe. The breakfast buffet was good and diverse, I didn't took the supper option, but it looked good too.The exterior pool was open, clean enough to swim, but the ceramic joints needed a scrub. Briefly it was good enough for a two-day stay, but would not stay for a week or something like that. I booked with a discount, but at full price, I don't thing I would have picked this hotel."
