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.

FAQs about hotels in Aït Benhaddou
The average price per night for a 3-star hotel in Aït Benhaddou this weekend is $67 or, for a 4-star hotel, $35. Looking for something even fancier? 5-star hotels in Aït Benhaddou for this weekend cost around $48 per night, on average (based on Booking.com prices).
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. 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.
The staff were very helpful and the facilities spotless. The room was basic but clean and the beds were comfortable. There was a good shower with plenty of hot water. The location is perfect for visiting Ait Benhaddou. A gentleman at the front desk kindly explained the site and drew a map for us that greatly aided our visit. We had a very nice dinner at the hotel restaurant which included Moroccan and western foods. We even had cold beer in a frosted glass which was delightful!
This was an oasis away from the chaos of the Kasbah in Ait Ben Haddou. It is under a ten minute drive away and we were so pleased when we walked in. The property is beautiful and the staff could not be nicer or more hospitable. The roof was great to watch the sunset from, the dinner was one of our favorite in our 2 weeks road tripping around Morocco (the lemon olive tajine is to die for). The riad is like a maze where every corner you turn to find a new little outdoor nook to enjoy!
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!
Amazing stay. This is a family run business and with the care and attention shown you really feel like a friend from the first moment. From a welcoming tea and biscuits to arranging a fantastic guide to the nearby Aït Ben Haddou nothing was too much trouble. They even surprised me with a birthday cake having realised it was recently my birthday from my passport. A lovely first night in Morocco and all subsequent stays will now have a lot to live up to!
This is a fantastic location with super beautiful views and location which is inside the Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou and very close to that famous gate where they shot a lot of films. The hotel was lit by candlelight and the luxury double has a terrace so it gave a very quaint and welcoming atmosphere. Their food is amazing as well with high-class quality, especially the vegetable spicy soup. yummy
Much better than an impersonal hotel. It’s very much like staying with a family in their home. Majid and his family are very slicing, generous and kind. The food is excellent: they should offer cookery holidays, teaching how to cook traditional Moroccan food.
The location is excellent, close to Ksat Ait Ben Haddou but quieter.
Rachid welcomed us and arranged for help with our luggage from the parking area. We were greeted at the beautiful hotel with mint tea. The hotel was absolutely beautiful and very authentic Moroccan. Beds were comfy and the location was perfect. Snacks and breakfast were great! Our hosts, Rachid and his mom, were the best!!
We stayed for the night on our way to our desert camp. It was such a delightful surprise. The expansive property is so beautiful, the staff incredibly kind and helpful. The spa and hammam was great. The hotel manager, Eric, delighted our daughter was an impressive card trick at dinner. I highly recommend!
Very friendly host/ owner who prepared outstanding meals. The riad/ hotel is on a hill, outside of the town and relatively modern, but with charm of the riad architecture with central courtyard. From our window, we saw the ruins of an old kasbah, which was interesting to visit.
What a fabulous, special place! Definitely one of our all time favourite places that we’ve stayed at. The most wonderful, friendly, warm staff! Our room looking over the valley was incredible. Being able to walk to Ait Ben Haddou was super cool!
best view and hospitality money can buy! very close to the famous Kasbah Ait Ben Haddou
great hosts and food too! thank you Yassin and the rest for giving us a wonderful time! 11/10 would recommend
Nice view, nice dinner, very nice room and accommodation. Super nice position in the old town of Ait Ben Haddou. Love the collaboration with the stable I went to and had a solo sunrise horse ride.
Great value for the price. The hotel host was very friendly and considerate. We felt well treated and taken seriously. He gave us many tips regarding trip planning and souvenirs. Recommend!
Beautiful riad with amazing staff and delicious food. 15-20 min by walk from ait ben haddou. Super kind and friendly staff. Clean and beautiful rooms. Would definitely recommend it!
Amazing place for the value, totally worth staying. The owner was very knowledgeable of surrounding places to visit and very friendly. Very spacious room and hotel overall.
