Palais d'hôtes Darsor

Stylish little hotel in a former private residence with a handful of generous rooms, good beds, excellent location just outside Medina in walking distance of main sights. Could be a real gem with better trained staff, some improvements on rather standard breakfast, better heating and a more stable Wi-Fi. Credit card payment was „not working“.

This is a lovely quiet hotel with pluses and minuses, we stayed for 3 nights and it was a good experience overall: - The pluses are the rooms are a great size (ours was, it had patio doors that led out the pool), the shower was big enough to have a party in!. The Staff are friendly and helpful and the location is good to get to the main square. The negative for us, was a lack of Bar, but nothing stopping you going to a shop and buying some, although do not expect any ice from the hotel. the Air conditioning was not great but adequate for May around 30'C. The breakfast was basic, Omelette with or without cheese, bread, pancakes, yoghurt, orange juice and a hot drink. If you stay here we would recommend going to Poka - an Asian cuisine restaurant about 5-10 minutes walk away.

We started with a good typical breakfast. The cleaning and decoration of the place were also very good. And we would like to thank Fatima, Abdel and Hicham for their availability and sympathy. Also we really liked the tourist guide, Salim, on the first day, he toke us to places that alone we would never found. Great place to stay! Carla and Nuno Cunha

We have spent a weekend at darsor. It is avery nice Dar (house in moroccan). The rooms are very well made, and rthey have the sense of details. Outstanding hospitality and service, Mr Abdelilah at the reception was cery welcoming, smily and helpful. He gave us a lot of advices about our weekend getaway in Marrakech. The locatio' of this dar is also great, steps away from the medina and nightlife. I highly recommend.

Just spent 4 nights here..had a wonderful time...pretty hotel in great location..super breakfasts..great room and such friendly staff that made my first trip to Morocco a totally fabulous trip. Cant wait to go back.

I will be back to this place next time ill go to Marrakesh, i think that says a lot. Before i go to This hotel i read the reviews and i was a bit afraid for what i was reading, but i took the chance and called the hotel to check if their problems were fixed and i they were nice and honest about it. So i took the risk and booked the hotel, my husband and loved it, the welcoming with a sweets and tea just as the traditional Moroccan welcoming, the staff just amazingly caring and what to say about the rooms , beautiful modern rooms, VERY NICE SHOWER AND WE GOT HOT WATER SO DON'T BE AFRAID :). The hotel its 10 min from the old city walking , and 0 minutes from the Guiliz (modern Marrakesh we can say where are the malls and shops and restaurants). This is one of the best hotels i had in Marrakesh, With an AMAZING AND DELICIOUS BREAKFAST. Thanks to all the staff and the manager for being that nice.

I stayed in this hotel for a couple of days and overall I can say it was a great experience. The room was comfortable, clean and well decorated. The hotel is located in a quiet area but still not far from the central square. Worth mentioning the amazing stuff members who were welcoming, helpful and made our stay in Darsor really enjoyable!

As you may read from the title the biggest problem was no hot water to take a shower and this happened 3 times in a week stay! Big room,wonderfull mattress . But,the safe was not screwed; you could just run away with it! Hairdryer fixed to the wall did not work (gave us the second day a commun hairdryer). Big windows wouldn't lock,so that your room stays "open" all day and night (only solution was to close the shutters!). Breakfast good, but similar every day. Friendly and helpful employees. We ordered three trips, car was always on time. I wrote 2 mails to the owner to explain the water problem, never got an answer. This was an unfriendly treatment; it gives the impression that the owner just wants money, but doesn't really care about her guests. We won't go back there next time...

Outside the city walls with the inconvenience of being aside a much busy and noisy road. Great cleanliness both in the room and common areas. Very kind staff, nice continental breakfast but not exceeding expectations.

There are four things I look for in a hotel: a comfortable bed, good wifi, substantial breakfast and a clean powerful shower, the Darsor certainly ticks those boxes, and is a wonderful place to relax after a long day seeing the sights of Marrakesh and prepares you for the next day no matter how busy it will be. I will go back there anytime I am in Marrakesh and reccomend it.

Darsor is a Riad type of hotel which is perfectly situated between the Medina (the old town) and the new city, so both centres are less than a 15 minute walk. You can also easily walk to the beautiful Jardin Majorelle and the YSL museum as well. There is a supermarket about a 5 minute walk away for those last second things you may need. The staff are so friendly and helpful, I especially loved how well they know their beautiful city and will give you tips on what to visit at any time of the day. Soukaina, the manager is incredibly friendly and made my stay an absolute pleasure. This hotel, is a beautiful example of classic Moroccan architecture and has a lovely swimming pool. One of my favourites is the ‘Moroccan room’ where you can escape the noise of the city and just relax with a cup of mint tea and just get away from it all. The rooms are spacious and decorated in the local style and our room had a lovely balcony. When we arrived we were greeted by Ahmed with some lovely cookies and Moroccan tea. Thank you Soukaina and the rest of the staff

Shuttle service from Darsor Hotel was excellent!! driver patiently stayed for another 2 hours outside (cause of a delay in my flight and long line from passport control) for me! That was such a relief!! Our suite was exceptionally lovely, COMFORTABLE and CLEAN (complete room facilities + fast wifi connection). I'd like to recommend travellers to book tours in this hotel they have plenty of options. They have an awesome staff!

The hotel is a jewel a few minutes away, outside of the ancient wall of Marrakech. Tastefully decorated, clean, with an incredible staff; Ahmed, Abdul and Fatima really made my friend and I feel at home. From here on, this is where I'll be staying when in town. Thank you Darsor!

When we got there the hotel manager gave us tea and biscuits and showed us to our room our room which was amazing, spacious and beautifully decorated very clean and modern yet with traditional touches, as well as fully air conditioned, the overall hotel was beautiful with a room intricately decorated and beautiful moroccan tile. The breakfast every morning was wonderful and we were given full table service. The pool is clean and quiet as it is not a massively large hotel so most of the time we were the only ones using it. The outside had a double sun lounger which me and my boyfriend loved to chill on. The location is perfect a short walk away from both old town and new town and old town can get busy and stressful the Darsor is the perfect distance away so you feel you have a peaceful getaway from the hustle and bustle. I couldn't praise it enough I would definitely come back again!!!!

Fabulous hotel. Staff are wonderful and the room I had was beyond my expectations. If you want dinner you need to tell them in the morning. You won't be disappointed. The food is excellent. Fabulous outdoor area with a swimming pool, very handy to the Medina. I'd definitely stay again.

Lovely modern hotel that still captures the Moroccan charm. Pristine clean everywhere, lovely pool and comfortable sun loungers. Breakfast very substantial and everything freshly made. Staff couldn't be more helpful, nothing too much trouble. We brits are prolific tea drinkers and although there was no kettle in the room, flasks of hot water could be requested at any time and there was no charge for this. Decent size fridge in the room and a supermarket 5 mins or so walk away for milk, fruit, snacks, etc. Ideally situated, equidistant from the old town and the new city (15 min walk in either direction) with all the souks and the Jardin Majorelle also in walking distance. We weren't leaving until early evening so paid to keep the room on for the day, well worth it. Arrange private taxi for us to the airport at a reasonable price. Can highly recommend this hotel for a stay in Marrakech. Wifi was free and better in the lobby and on the terrace than in the room.

Do not expect a five star hotel service. Personal service with an amazing /helpful staff. Location is walkable to the old city. Breakfast is hearty, rooms are clean. food charges are a bit high. Internet is available. Recommend it

We arrived late after quite a delay at the airport and the outside of the building might not look too amazing - modern, clean but a little drab. However, the door was opened by the Suheel, the evening/nighttime manager - he is the friendliest, most helpful hotelier you will ever meet. He went to great lengths throughout our stay to make sure everything was perfect. He showed us where to go on maps, he provided a huge delicious breakfast every day, that he can tailor to suit your wishes. Our room was absolutely beautiful and really clean. It was great to go out all morning and come back after lunch to relax in the suntrap garden by the swimming pool in the highest heat of the day before, once rested, going out again for dinner and evening wandering. This is one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in and the night manager Suheel just made our stay all it could possibly be!!

Nice little hotel with generally very helpful staff. Had two great staff and one not that great, but not too bad. Great location, right by the old town and close by to the new town. The breakfast is extremely filling. The pool was too cold though, if you’d like a morning swim. Our bathroom, you could see right into through a clear glass, which was a bit strange. Didn’t mind the shower, as I was with my husband, but the toilet was a bit much. You can’t really see anything unless you are looking but if your not into that kind of thing or going to be sharing with your mum or someone like that, just something to bare in mind. You can walk to the main square in 15mins or so. We took the wrong turn and ended up in the souks the first day. So tip, the left you need to take is at an obvious cross type road and the market square is opposite a big tower, there’s loads of horse and carriages around...so it’s hard to miss. The hotel and our room flooded when we were there, hence why I haven’t given it top marks. They were great and moved us, but the room we got moved into stank and you could hear a lot of noise in the room, people walking past, flushing of toilets and walking upstairs. We were moved back to our old room, no problem, but was a slight inconvenience to the trip. They fixed the problem, so hopefully not an issue when/if you stay. Would recommend it overall for a trip to Marrakesh.
