Walking into the Palais Faraz is an impressive experience—the public areas are beautiful and exude a sense of grandeur. However, the experience in the room was less than stellar. The decor felt dated, though the bed was very comfortable. Unfortunately, the bathroom design was not ideal for privacy. It combined the closet, walk-in shower, and toilet in one open area, with only a glass door for separation. Additionally, the shower didn’t drain well, leading to water pooling on the floor.
The breakfast buffet was a highlight, offering a wide variety of options to start the day. However, the bar was surprisingly underwhelming, missing some of the standard offerings you’d expect from a 5-star hotel.
The location is both a pro and a con—situated on a busy road but conveniently close to the entrance of the Medina.
Overall, while Palais Faraz has its moments, it doesn’t quite meet the standards of other 5-star hotels I’ve experienced. There’s room for improvement, particularly in the rooms and bar service.

Dear Marie, Thank you for your comment and recognition. Our team does everything possible to make your guests' stay pleasant and we will be happy to satisfy you to the best of our ability. I am sorry for the bathroom inconvenience, you should have mentioned it to our team to be fixed immediately.The rooms were designed by the king's palace architect in the pure Moroccan style of the old Palace, which is why they are traditional and not modern.For the bar service, I will brief our team about your comment.. Very cordially

We just returned from a wonderful stay at Palais Faraj Suites and Spa. This hotel is absolutely beautiful, from the lobby to the rooms. The staff is welcoming, wonderful and so helpful. We found the dining for breakfast and dinner to be delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay !

Fab restaurant, hotel lacking
Posted 23 Jan 2024 on HotelsBeautiful place needs attention. Wonderful restaurant and staff throughout. Floor of bathroom was dirty (unidentified brown substance), mattress high in middle, low on ends and at headboard. Pool and other areas being jack-hammered with tile removal which made sitting outside at restaurant during day unpleasant. We were emailed that pool was undergoing maintenance the day or 2 before arrival—past deadline to cancel and book with another hotel. Bathroom and rest of room so dark I had to use flashlight to put on make-up! I would recommend restaurant completely, but not a stay in the hotel.

One of the best Riads we stayed at in all of Morocco. It is just outside the medina so car can go to the property unlike a lot of others where you need to walk in the medina from car park to the hotel.
Beautiful property, had a great view of the medina, spacious and clean rooms (not common for Riads in medina), excellent service and staff, even had a gym, good restaurant with live music that we loved. Breakfast had plenty of options with a fresh omelette station as well.
Overall amazing Riad!
