Where to stay in Meknes

An old madrasa in the center of the medina, with a courtyard full of detailed carvings, beautiful mosaics and great views from the rooftop. #meknes #morocco

Meknes Medina

You'll enjoy the museums and monuments in Meknes Medina. You might want to make time for a stop at Great Mosque or El Hedim Square.

Meknes Medina
One of the oldest gates in all of Morocco, Bab Mansour in Meknes was completed in 1737. This is one of the parts of the gate that I was in utter awe of it's detail and beauty. Today there is an arts and craft gallery through the doors. So cool. Definitely you need to check it out. WORTH. IT. :)

Ville Nouvelle

Though Ville Nouvelle might not have many top sights, you can venture to the surrounding area to see attractions like Heri es-Souani and Great Mosque.

Nice location
"The property is located on the side of the main road, easy drop off and pick up, did not feel welcome when we arrived, and staff was not present. The property should be a good choice for people who are looking for local style accommodation, absolutely can not be compared to real hotel, flies bugs ..."
