This 200-year-old classic Souiri residence was formerly owned by a wealthy trader dealing in tea. Thanks to Anglo-Moroccan couple Alison and Jandal, it's now a captivating combination of a traditional Moroccan dar and an English country cottage. The Teahouse's two floors of apartments are outfitted in soft hues of sage, turmeric, rose, and mauve, and filled (by Alison) with a quirky assortment of Moroccan antique furnishings. Each floor, or apartment, has two en suite bedrooms, a kitchen, and sitting room complete with fireplace, which is much needed in the winter. Each apartment can sleep four, and will accommodate an additional small child if need be. Solo travelers and couples are given the same exclusivity of each apartment. The whole house can also be rented. Alison's personal touches include lavender-scented linens, a personal orientation tour, and a candlelit roof terrace for romantic sunsets. She's also very knowledgeable about Morocco's traditional artisan history. A hearty breakfast is delivered fresh each morning, and Alison is more than happy to accompany those who wish to be totally self-sufficient to the fresh-produce souks. The Teahouse isn't for everyone, but it's definitely peaceful, homely, and attracts a slightly alternative, artsy guest.

3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
