“Dar Loulema impresses with its dedication to traditional Moroccan aesthetics, evident in the individually themed rooms. Its location in the heart of the medina places guests steps from the beach and local attractions. In my opinion, the panoramic rooftop terrace is a standout feature for a hotel in this class.”
