Check availability

Restored ksar minutes from Aït Benhaddou's UNESCO citadel — adobe architecture with modern comforts.

Ksar Ighnda rebuilt an old adobe village near Aït Benhaddou into a hotel that keeps the earth-built architecture and adds what the film crews and travellers who base themselves here actually want: a proper pool, gardens, good beds and reliable dinners.

The great ksar of Aït Benhaddou — backdrop to half of Hollywood's desert epics — is minutes away, best visited at dawn before the coaches arrive. Ouarzazate's film studios and the Ounila Valley's kasbah road fill the rest of a very good couple of days.
