Palais d’Hotes

Palais d’Hotes in Fes is a traditional guesthouse-style riad with a pampering, spa-forward vibe set high in the old medina.

Atmosphere and setting: The stay centers on a restored, century-old Fassi “small palace” organized around a patio, with classic Moroccan lounge spaces for relaxing between sightseeing and spa time.

Rooms and suites: Accommodation is offered as a mix of rooms and suites (including junior and deluxe categories), designed for comfort in a more intimate, house-guest style than a large hotel.

Spa and wellness: The on-site Spa Andalous is a major draw, with an indoor pool plus a traditional hammam, sauna, jacuzzi, massage room, and a small workout area for keeping routines on track.

Terrace experience: A large rooftop terrace overlooks the medina, giving you an easy place to sunbathe, unwind, and linger over meals or pre-dinner drinks without leaving the property.

Food and hosting: There’s an in-house restaurant focused on traditional Fassi/Moroccan cooking, and the service style is positioned as attentive and personalized, including tailoring hammam scents and massage oils to guest preferences.

Location for exploring: Being in Fes El Bali puts you close to the medina’s main sights and atmosphere, while the property’s direct car access can make arrivals and day trips simpler than deeper-in-medina stays.

Potential noise: As a medina property, light sound from the surrounding lanes or evening activity may be noticeable in some rooms.

Traditional layout trade-offs: Like many riads, the historic design may mean more stairs and tighter passages in places, even with added conveniences on-site.

Pros	Cons
Indoor pool, hammam, sauna, jacuzzi, and massages on-site	Medina setting may bring occasional noise
Big terrace with sweeping medina views	Historic riad layouts can involve stairs and narrow corridors
Personalized hosting and traditional Moroccan dining	Not a large-hotel setup (fewer “big property” facilities)
