Reviews of Tigmi Tachddirt

Simply amazing location, and considering this, very good facilities. Tacheddirt is a small village, high and remote in the Atlas mountains, surrounded by subsistence farmers and exceptional mountains. I recommend staying at the Tigmi and using it as a base to explore around the area. At least 3 days of walking nearby, all with wonderful views and friendly people. The accomodation is very good, and the host is very helpful. If you arrive by car, then be aware you cannot just park it next to the Tigmi (there is only one road in the village, and this goes around the outer edge of the village, so not past the Tigmi). I suggest you park somewhere on the road and ask the locals to walk you to the Tigmi (they all know each other, and they will help locate the owner to open up for you). Once you've settled down then discuss with the owner about dinner and breakfast (this is the only place you can eat in the village) and agree the price with him directly. We visited with children (9-14) and they also enjoyed it very much.

The place was perfect.

The place was under renovation and soulless.

We didn't stay at Tigmi Tacheddirt and choose another local gites.

This is the closest location to the pass to the Timichi / Labasn / Sti Fadma. The village itself is not better than any other near by.

There is an asphalt road to Tachddirt, so you could expect a normal service. Instead it is a really village level with overpriced food. 1. One towel for the whole family. Big questions about it freshness. 2. Not sure if the "bed linen" is fresh. 3. No heating in the room whatsoever. 4. The only place in Morocco, where they wanted 11MAD for Euro of the Booking price instead of a fair rate. Unfortunatelly I didn't have the exact amount in euro. 5. The owner is available only on the phone. The old man at the building does not speak any foreign language. This makes the communication awful. 6. Overpriced food (7 euro per person for dinner). They will also charge you for the tea. We came from Timichi via the pass, for other options we need to walk + 30 minutes. I see no reason for you to come here just to see this village.

I like the location and the vast space inside this hostel. It’s massive! It has got many private suits with private terrace, it’s quiet and very serene. Furniture and beds are up to our expectations and no complaints on those.

First of all, on our way to Tacheddirt, I called the hostel and a lady called “Touria” picked up. She said everything possible to make us cancel our stay because “we’re driving at night and it’s impossible to find the hostel and we’re likely going to get lost”. The phone call was very long and annoying and we were already outside of Marrakesh driving towards Imlil. She later throw many other excuses at us asking us to cancel such as “the is only one old man in the hostel and he only speaks berber”. Secondly, during the entire stay at the hostel, while “Lhoussein” did his best to accommodate our needs, he is not the best staff to assign as a host. Lhoussein kept coming inside our suite and came once inside our bedroom while my friend and I were taking a nap. There were many scenarios like these where we felt uncomfortable. Then, we couldn’t take showers during the entire stay because water was so cold and never gets heated. Food was below par, we asked for entire meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). Lhoussein was the one cooking everything, while his cooking is really good, thing served were below expectations. Breakfasts are very poor, too much jam and cold bread. We were never served fresh bread although we said many times we have no problem paying extra for some good food, maybe hot water.

The place is quiet and the view is wonderful. The owner of the place Mr. Lahssein is very friendly. You feel like he is a member of your family because of his good treatment and kind words. An excellent place to clear your mind in the middle of the mountains.

It is better to add the cost of meals to Booking

Tacheddirt is deserted place in the middle of mountain. This riad was very pleasant surprise taking into account all circumstances - very nice place, a lots of space, just breathtaking terrace where we could just sit, eat, and relax.

A bit outdated equipment, but understandable taking into account location.

Tigmi Tacheddirt is a special place. The host went out of his way to make our time here wonderful. It is nestled against a beautiful mountain backdrop with a beautiful patio to sit and enjoy views. Dinner (tangine) and breakfast (typical Moroccan spread) were delicious. There were lots of extra blankets around to help with the chilly nights and there was warm water for a shower too. The hiking in the area is exceptional.

Nothing!

The gite is really huge with various rooms, big dinning room and amazing terrace with a beautiful view to the valley from which you can watch the sunset.

There was no staff when we arrived, the gite was closed and we had to wait for a local to get someone with a key to open it for us. The guy told us that the owner is away and they didn't know about our reservation via booking, whether we paid or not, how much should we pay... The dinner (tajine) which we paid extra cost the same as anywhere in Morocco and wasn't that great for the price. Toilets were not clean when we arrived. I wouldn't mind any of this in some other small and cheap gites in the area, but this one cost much more than the rest, so I would expect added value as well.

It seems the only good place to stay in this remote village, nice views We were the only guests. Tasty and big tagine. Chimney

2 misunderstandings with a room price (dinner, cost of staying). Both solved in an acceptable way, but spoiled nice feelings. Very cold on 5th January (expected), but no heater in the room, the room is not tight to save the warmth. I saw better places. Chimney makes too much smoke

The location could not be beat. We loved the views from the terrace! The staff were super kind and helpful. The food was also amazing. Really fresh and full of flavour. Rooms were as described and perfect for a night of rest after a hard trek from Imlil. A truly unique experience that we will remember.

We arrived to find the hotel totally deserted. It almost felt like it had closed down with no other guests. We did eventually find someone to help us but everyone seemed surprised we were there despite having a booking and indicating our approximate time of arrival. All was fine in the end and everyone was super helpful. It just felt a bit odd at first.
