Fodor's Expert Review Dar al Hossoun

This luxury boutique hotel is a true eco-lodge, located in the countryside 8 km (5 miles) from Taroudant; it was built using local materials and traditional techniques but offers all the modern conveniences. The rooms are individually designed and decorated with local rugs, tapestries, and earthenware. The water from the bathrooms is recycled into the surrounding designer gardens with exotic plants from around the world. Two swimming pools, a spa, library, restaurant, bar, and sundeck with panoramic views of the Atlas Mountains add much to the comfort and pleasure. The hotel has been awarded a "Green Key" in recognition of its responsible and sustainable operations.
