Disappointing Stay with a Silver Lining I recently stayed at Palais Zahia in Tangier, Morocco, and overall, it was a disappointing experience. While the hotel's central location near the port was convenient, the quality of the accommodations left much to be desired. Upon arrival, I was assigned a room with mold growing along the walls of the bathroom. After requesting a change, I was moved to another room. Though this room did not have visible mold, it smelled very musty and was extremely humid, making it uncomfortable to stay in. Another couple was placed in my initial room, instead of the issue being addressed, and also complained. The saving grace of my stay was the dining experience. The food, served on the terrace, was delightful. I particularly enjoyed the chicken Pastilla, and the ambiance was enhanced by the vibrant dancing and music in the square. Despite the enjoyable meal, the overall experience at Palais Zahia was marred by the poor room conditions. I hope the management addresses these issues promptly to improve the experience for future guests.

I’m a 57 year old woman from America travelling with my 22 year old daughter. We loved the history and the culture. The hotel room was beautiful. The breakfast was amazing. We felt very safe. The hotel staff was great. It was noisy outside until 3am, but brought my headphones to sleep. Read about the noisiness in other reviews. Totally manageable.

The Palais Zahia is the best hotel I've ever stayed in, anywhere. Everything about this hotel is stellar--the building's beautiful architecture and unique spaces, the Moroccan ornamentation everywhere, the condition of the rooms, and the various restaurant choices (some of the best Moroccan cuisine I've had). The friendly and helpful management and reception staff stand out in particular. The cooks, restaurant servers, and room cleaners also contribute to the excellent experience.

We booked 2 rooms for 2 nights non refundable and left after the first night. Though the hotel is a nice riad with attentive wait staff the noise at night is unbearable. Other reviews said it quieted down by 11pm. We found it too noisy to sleep until after 2am. And then their call to worship began between 4-5am and felt like it was in my room. It does quiet down in the morning so I caught another hour before our 9am tour. Yes, they still charged me the taxes on departure for the second night we didn't stay. Their "free" tour of the city. Sure, take it, but by all means do NOT go with them for any shopping. Disappointed doesn't even begin to describe it. It was a complete sham. Besides, you are better off buying things out of this city. Pushy and extremely rude shop owners and your "guide" helps them along. We enjoyed our day spent outside of the city so much more. So, if you must stay in Tangier (not recommended) at least stay in the modern area so you can get sleep.

Incredible value and experience.
This is a perfect haven in the middle of the bustling Medina. You enter from the street and find yourself in a calm, elegant, sophisticated and culturally rich environment which is nothing less than stunning. I will make it my regular stay in Tangier and will recommend it to everyone.
