Readers recommend this hotel mixing local materials and modern standards, with Berber
artefacts decorating the corridors and helpful staff, who speak some English. The roof ter-
race has mountain views and some rooms have balconies overlooking the market square,
which the cafe-restaurant (breakfast/set menu Dh23/65) opens out onto.
Les Rochers Peints

fraout lives up to its name with its profusion of colourful stained glass, artworks, carvings,
furniture, rugs, textiles, Berber decor and vintage French posters. Located on the edge of
town, it has a wrap-around terrace with good mountain views and an airy cafe in recep-
tion. The only letdown is the 10 en-suite rooms, which are small and stuffy.
