Morocco Hotels

Morocco is a country located in North Africa.

The best-rated hotel option in Morocco is the Sofitel Palais Jamai in Fes. It's located near a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Fez Medina. There are 123 basic rooms and 19 suites, all decorated in a luxurious oriental tone. In-room amenities include wireless internet access, mini-bars and 24-hour room service. The three on-site restaurants offer French, Moroccan and International cuisines, while the jazz bar has more of an English touch.

Morocco has many moderate-lodging facilities available. A great example is the Ryad Bahia in Meknes. While staying there, you can experience a "Hammam" (steam bath) or a "Henne Ritual." Laundry services, baby-sitting and internet is available for guests.

The Dar Silsila is also a reasonably-priced option in Morocco. It's located in Marrakesh and is a smaller, more "intimate" choice, with only four rooms. A patio and terrace is available for guests and the staff is on-call 24-hours a day.

Inexpensive accommodations are easy to find in Morocco. For example, the Hotel Batha is well-rated and affordable. It's one of the older hotels in Fes, offering over 60 rooms, a large pool and an in-house restaurant.
