Absolutely the most beautiful hotel with amazing design and decor, incredible bed, so luxurious and comfortable you felt like a sultan stepping into the room and being in it. The bathroom was stunningly beautiful too. Amazing bathtub and sink. The hammam, spa and massage was wonderful, and the restaurant, Riad and rooftop (with sea view) fantastic. Lovely airflow through the rooms, luxurious long curtains flowing with the breeze over our bed, Mumtaz Mahal is a place you want to spend a lifetime in. And the staff are so LOVELY! Especial thanks to Nouhaila at reception for her warm, helpful, gorgeous personality and service, and her lovely colleague on the other day at reception too. The place was spotless so huge thanks to the cleaning staff as well for making our stay so wonderful.

Everything about this property is amazing. The style of the room is well organized and the decor is just lovely. The view tops it off. The best accommodation I have ever stayed in!! It’s located a few seconds from the main square and the streets are very safe at night for solo travelers. (No creepy alleys) Clean room and lovely hosts. Breakfast is also lovely and varied from day to day. It was so lovely that it’s very difficult to leave the room sometimes. I had to stay an extra night because I loved it so much.
