Hotel Dar Zitoune Taroudant

Inside a walled olive grove on the edge of Taroudant, Hotel Dar Zitoune sits along Boutarialt El Barrania, a rural road ten minutes by car from the ochre ramparts that ring the old medina. Bungalow-style rooms scatter beneath the olive canopy rather than stacking into a single block, each with its own terrace facing the trees or the Anti-Atlas foothills beyond.

A working farm supplies the kitchen with its own olives, citrus, and vegetables, and guests can walk the grove paths before breakfast. The setting suits travellers seeking a quiet, low-density base near Taroudant rather than the denser riads of Marrakech, four hours north by road.
