This is a wonderful and magical place. It is like being transported back in time. It is an old family home which is carefully and lovingly being restored. It is candlelit so it makes for a very unique experience. This is coupled with Mohammeds friendly and honest welcome that makes sure you are comfortable. It is also hasslefree and you aren’t being pushed for anything. Dinner was also very good. The location is excellent and you stay in the historical city itself. A memorable experience. Best visited during slightly less hot months as there is no fan or A/C. Do stay here as it is very different!

A magical and authentic stay, like going back in a time capsule. A delicious candlelit dinner served on the terrace was very romantic. Mohammed was wonderful and very informative about the Kasbah.

It’s like time capsule, 4 centuries old, no electricity, candle light. When you arrive late night and cross the dry river, it is like entry to time of caravans. And the hospitality of the owner, loved to chat together. If you are looking for something more than just a casual hotel, that’s the place.

Conditioner would be nice.

Location. Atmosphere.

Fruit with breakfast would be nice to include.

A very uniquely beautiful, historic casbah and an experience unlike any other stay. Dining by candlelight and breakfast on terrace was memorable! By far best place to stay in town.

The furniture inside the room, not enough places to put all our stuff out of the way.

Wonderful location. Very romantic. This is a time capsule in the desert, but with modern plumbing. Get up early and watch the sunrise.

The major feature of this hotel is that there is no electricity: so not only no light, but also no air conditioner. Our travel was in late May so the room is very hot even during night time. Even the outdoor temperature was lower at night, , indoor could still be hot. It would be better to travel in a cooler season, or be ready to bring along portable fan. Otherwise, there is not much inconvenience: there is light in bathroom, can charge the phone from socket in the room, and WiFi in common area.

Staying in an old Kasbah with candle lights around, vibe is unbeatable, like traveling back in time. Exceptional experience. Diner of chicken and vegetable tagine is so delicious that even my picky eating toddler was enjoying. Location is great, walking around the old Kasbah area in late afternoon is relaxing and comfortable.

The booking page is clear that you'll need to pay for extras in cash on arrival (dinner etc.), but I somehow did not digest the fact that you also have to pay the complete cost of your room onsite in cash. We had enough dirhams to do so, but it took us by surprise. Just be sure you have enough cash to pay for your room, dinner, tips etc. before you cross the river.

We absolutely loved Kasbah Tebi - cannot imagine seeing Ait Benhaddou any other way, it was a highlight of our trip to Morocco. Dinner by candlelight was lovely, and our room was so dreamy. We arrived mid-day, and called the staff at Kasbah Tebi using the wifi at a cafe in town across the river, and they promptly sent over a porter on motorbike to help with our luggage. We followed our luggage across the river bed, entered through the ancient unesco site archway, and arrived at Kasbah Tebi with a warm welcome. After a cup of tea, we went out to explore. Being able to settle back into our lodging without leaving the site, while all the other tourists had to cross the river to continue on their journey or stay in town was quite a perk. It felt as though we had the place to ourselves for sunset. Don't even question it, stay here if you plan to visit Kasbah Tebi.

Internet was only working in the common space- in the evening, with all guests present in the common space on it, the capacity wasn't enough to make it usable

Nestled in a charming historic location, this place boasts beautifully designed interiors and a cozy, comfortable bedroom. We enjoyed a delightful dinner in a stunning indoor setting and savored a lovely breakfast on the outdoor terrace.

I enjoyed spending the nights with only candlelight. It's nice to be able to enjoy a life that has not changed in the past 400 years.

We will never forget our stay! Magical to say the least. It is situated in what feels like an oasis in the desert. Absolutely stunning. I cannot recommend it enough.

Having to leave :) Fantastic place!

Absolutely gorgeous location, great facilities, and wonderful staff. Great spot for hikes from the property with the guided they can arrange for you. Best beef tagine Ive had (the other food was lovely too)

The door to the bathroom is very small.

Very nice staff. Comunication always very easy and acessible, helped us get taxi to kasbah and from kasbah to Essaouira. Not having electricity and the subdue decor makes the stay an unique experience.

You will need to walk from the parking place to the Kasbah.

Awesome location! Nice authentic rooms with lots of space. Nice common areas. Best shower in Morocco.

Nothing. Everything was great.

A unique experience. Felt as though I’d traveled back in time. Delightfully restored building that’s been run by the same family for 400 years. Mohammed was great and collected and dropped off our luggage back to the car via motorbike. The views from the Kasbah were stunning. At night there the building is lit inside by candles. There were charging points and our bed room also had electric lights.

Kasbah Tebi was utterly magical. Crossing the river and finding the hotel was just the right sort of adventurous. The hotel itself is just gorgeous: the ceilings, the furniture, the ambience. The candle lit dinner and candle lit rooms created a night out of time. The rooms were comfortable, the shower was hot, and the bird and animal noises from the palmery were just the right shot of exotic. The staff was friendly and accomodating. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. It was a magical night I will never forget.

A battery operated light in the bathroom would be helpful. A sign in lobby that reads Cash Only would be a good idea as we had planned on using a credit card.

It provided a unique experience. Beds were comfortable and meal service was good. Lack of electricity adds to the charm but is also challenging.

Difficult to locate, but staff was sent to meet us and show us the way. No one was available to help us with our bags upon checkout. This is unacceptable.

Absolutely charming property and decor.

Wonderful people in an amazing historical location! Internet service in this area is very low so try and get on the wifi. The dinner prepared by the staff was excellent and served over candle light. Get their phone number and send a WhatsApp message and they will tell you where to park and come pick you up from the parking lot and help with bags. ATM available at parking lot was a life saver!

Warm welcome upon arrival. We enjoyed the experience with the candle light setting as there is no electricity. The breakfast on the terrace in the shadow of palm trees is unforgettable. Great experience to stay such an ancient location.
