Hotel Riad Amlal

In the heart of Ouarzazate — the cinematic "Ville Rouge" — this riad-style hotel is minutes from Atlas Film Corporation Studios, Kasbah Taouirt and Atlas Studios. A compact base for kasbah runs, desert trips and film-set sightseeing.

Just eight air-conditioned rooms, each painted its own vivid color, give the place an intimate, boutique vibe. Rooms include minibars, desks, electric kettles and rainfall showers with complimentary toiletries, plus daily housekeeping. The riad’s terrace and picture-ready pool add to the storybook, Mille et Une Nuits atmosphere.

Swim in an indoor pool that feels straight out of a film set and sip mint tea poolside. Enjoy the terrace, library and barbecue area, plus concierge and tour-desk services for kasbah and desert excursions. Free self-parking is available and a roundtrip airport shuttle can be arranged for a surcharge.

24-hour front desk with multilingual staff, luggage storage, laundry and car rental services. Complimentary wired and wireless internet is available throughout the property.

The on-site restaurant serves local Moroccan flavors — think tagine and mint tea — and 24-hour room service is available. A complimentary local-cuisine breakfast is served daily to fuel your kasbah and desert adventures.
