The original Erg Chebbi auberge. Run by the same family since opening 30 years ago and not a day closed since then. Copied by all the others but this is the original, developing over the years. An unbelievable vista. However guests must remember that they are in the desert, not a city and respond accordingly in their expectations. A second... More

The auberge is the oldest one in the area, fantastic hospitality. I have stayed there twice before and each time the staff have been very friendly and helpfull. This year I stayed in one of the new rooms that had just been completed. Great Moroccan decor, plenty of hot water and a great view over the dunes. Even though the... More

Filthy, creepy rooms, no hot water, very dirty pool area, rotten food (all of us got sick), unprofessional staff.... the location is fantastic, right on the dunes, but that's all.

Arriving at this hotel couldn't be more exhilarating: on the road between Rissani and Merzouga, you turn off the paved road onto flat, rocky desert. Soon you see the golden dunes of Erg Chebbi - and soon after you spot the hotel, one of a few along this part of the dune line. Built of traditional mud and straw, the... More

Auberg les Dunes D'or is situated on the edge of Erg Chebbi close to Merzouga.This is a wonderful retreat to relax. My first visit here was in 2006 while riding a motorbike through the desert. I was so impressed by the landscape I returned this year in April to see some more. This time I arrived by bus from Ouarzazate.... More

It is also a great place to chat with friends or to enjoy a good book. The staff is friendly and helpful. If you are looking to explore the... More

My wife and I stayed at the Dunes d'Or to pass a night in the desert. We were picked up in Rissani in the hotel's 4x4, and whisked across the desert to the Auberge. We loved the location and view from the hotel, the camel trek, and the night in the desert. However, none of the staff was forthcoming about... More
