Villa Agapanthe

Lovely hotel. Staff very lovely. Room was large. Food available on site. Ordered an omelette with salad and it was fresh. Would stay here again

The hotel is to the south east of the city off the road to Sefrou (R503) and near the Sports Stadium. You approach along a tarmac side road which becomes a dusty track. On entering the hotel it's a different world. There's a warm welcome, spacious rooms, good sized bathrooms with toiletries. The U-shaped building has a large pool which is very clean and there are even two tortoises which graze in the adjacent garden. Meals can be taken in a stylish dining room or by the pool. The bar is on the upper floor near to the reception and tasty nibbles are served with your drinks. The surrounding countryside is a delight and the views are extensive. It only takes ten minutes by car into the city where car parks are easy to find and cost very little.

When you've had your fill at the medina, Agapanthe is the ideal respite with the clean spacious and minimalist rooms overlooking a large pool and orchards.
