A tranquil oasis of peace and luxury.
Pros:

View of the snow topped mountains, lovely bedding, lights and ceramics in the room.
Breakfast was very good and dining room was lovely with the open fire.
Beautiful flower arrangements everywhere. Gardens were very well maintained. Lovely pool area with towels and cushions to make sitting out very comfortable.

Lovely, peaceful, boutique hotel. Highly recommend. Book it, you won’t regret it!
Pros:

Gorgeous hotel, really peaceful. Well proportioned with private nooks and day beds all over the place, so lots of choice of where to go. You can be around other guests or have privacy as you choose. Staff were lovely & couldn’t do enough for you. I realised I had left my hair brush at home, they rang a driver & got him to pick one up for me. Owners mix with the guests & the hotel manager too, checking how your stay is going, very personal experience.

The food was fantastic. Menu changes every day. 3 choices of starter, main course & 2 choices of pudding. We really liked this as we chose things we wouldn’t have normally & everything was delicious. Really, really exceptional food.

We were very unfortunate with the weather, it was overcast, cold & raining every day. However, there are fires lit everywhere & the spa was fantastic, lots of availability, so we had a great stay.

ALL the staff were friendly, warm and welcoming, from the breakfast staff to the cleaners to the spa staff. The hotel attracts great guests, we met some very interesting people. We left after 4 nights for our next hotel; which is a 5* extremely exclusive hotel at 5 x the cost & honestly we wanted to return to the Capaldi as soon as we checked into our next hotel! We were seconds away from calling the driver & telling him to come back for us!

Cons:

The bed was a bit hard & very squeaky, so it didn’t make for the best night sleep. The pillows separated into nothing so I woke up with a bad neck. Minimal toiletries, no conditioner in the room etc. I think slippers in the room would be a good idea & the doorway is low, my husband hit his head on it on the first day, definitely didn’t make that mistake again! To put it into context though, it was a great stay and we would stay again. The room is a great size & decorated beautifully & minimally.

The Capaldi is a gorgeous, calming retreat after the hustle and bustle of Marrakech.
Pros:

The grounds, swimming pools and communal areas were all absolutely gorgeous and the staff so friendly and helpful. We did the half day hike in the Atlas which was a great way to learn about the surrounding area and customs. The food was excellent, in a gorgeous setting and very good value for money. Total luxury!

Pros:

This hotel feels like a little paradise - with stunning views on the Atlas Mountains.
The food was outstanding, the beds were comfortable, the design of the hotel amazing. At the time of our visit I was sick - they tried everything helping me too. Very nice!

Cons:

We would recommend this hotel to anyone - with one minus. Several restaurant staff members were unfriendly/lazy/ not well trained.

séjour au calme et serein. vue magnifique
Pros:

la vue sur l'Atlas vraiment magnifique.
La possibilité de faire un feu de cheminée dans la chambre
la piscine chauffée

Cons:

ces sont des détails mais une bouilloire dans la chambre, de tapis en descente de lit et un petit chauffage radiant dans la salle de bains seraient appréciables.

Just book it.
Pros:

This was our 3rd visit to this beautiful hotel.
The weather was awful and my husband was very unwell for the whole week, so if we were anywhere else, it could have been an awful time,but luckily we were at the Capaldi, where even if it rains every day, there are lovely lounges with roaring fires, a library, cinema and the suite also had a comfy sofa and fireplace which the staff were quick to light and restock whenever we liked. A pile of books and lots of restorative naps took the place of the usual hikes in the hills, or walks to the lakes.
The staff are the stars of the Capaldi, everyone from the friendly waiters to the ever cheerful Carol were always kind and keen to help.
No review of the Capaldi would be complete without mentioning the food. It is a very, very high standard along the lines of excellent French and Italian dinners but there was usually a Moroccan dish available too.
The cocktails are also great.
All in all, what could have been a rubbish week was saved by the hotel equivalent of a caring hug. Thank you, and we’ll be back
