2 Best Hotels in Tiznit, Agadir and the Southern Atlantic Coast

The design of this luxury riad, hidden behind nondescript walls in the medina, was inspired by the Andalusian and Moorish architecture of grand old residences. Large arched colonnades surround beautiful gardens, and there's an inviting swimming pool at the center. The rooms are decorated with charm and comfort, and have air-conditioning and en suite bathrooms. The hammam offers yet another path to relaxation. The hosts, Aby and Priya (who speak eight languages between them), can organize tours and activities in the town and region.

This large, budget-friendly hotel caters is the only option in town for accommodation other than a small guesthouse. The marble lobby has a winding double staircase and an enormous, five-tier brass chandelier handcrafted in Fez. Rooms are superbasic, but the hand-laid tilework, marble, and carved plaster in the public areas make for a unique blend of fine Moroccan craftsmanship and modern technology. The English-speaking staff are happy to arrange onward travel and excursions.
