Rooms and Suites

Palais Amani is a family-run property with 21 rooms in the former home of one of Fez's most prominent families. The rooms include air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, free Wi-Fi, and an iPod docking station, and blend traditional and modern Moroccan furnishings. Each room features a private bathroom with free toiletries. Both the mezzanine and the luxury junior suites feature a master bedroom, an elegant salon, and a bathroom with a choice of either a bath or shower. The classic rooms are cosy and low-beamed, with views over the garden or the medina. Some suites offer garden and hill views and include stained glass windows and a living room. Selected rooms come with a hot tub.

Dining and Drinks

The hotel's restaurant provides an a la carte lunch menu and an evening set menu, offering Moroccan and French cuisine. Dishes include creamy avocado goats cheese tart and spiced roasted poussin stuffed with red olives and preserved lemons. A tasting menu allows guests to experience Moroccan cuisine, with dishes that vary with the seasons and market produce, served in the traditional Moroccan style. A daily Moroccan breakfast is served on the terrace overlooking the garden. Guests can try local wines and the Amani cocktail, created by the bar staff. The library salon bar with a fireplace is open in winter; the rooftop bar operates in summer.

Leisure Activities

Palais Amani houses a large interior courtyard garden full of citrus and olive trees, along with a rooftop terrace that provides views of the medina. The property offers a traditional Moroccan cooking class, modern Moroccan dinner under the stars, and wine by the fireside in the lounge. Guests can follow a detective trail around the architecture of the building or take a two-hour personalized initiation to calligraphy with a renowned Fez calligrapher. The Fez Cooking School at Palais Amani is rapidly gaining notoriety. A hike along the hillside provides a taste of Berber life, less than 30 minutes from the city. Guests can meet Dr. Sarah Mliyahe MD, RYT- 200h, a Yoga instructor and psychiatry resident, for yoga sessions.

Location and Access

Located in Fes El Bali, Palais Amani is a great choice for travelers interested in street markets, shopping, and markets. The hotel is near ornamented entryways like Bab Guissa and the Blue Gate, and is two minutes from a main entrance to the Fes el Bali, the city's main medina and the largest pedestrian zone in the world. Nearby landmarks include Zaouia Moulay Idriss II (0.5 km), Marinid Tombs and Borj Nord (1.5 km), Ibn Danan Synagogue and the royal palace in Fez (2.5 km), and Medina of Fez (3.5 km).

Hotel Services

Palais Amani provides assistance with organizing events. The hotel has introduced a new water filtration system to eliminate single-use plastic. Ironing facilities, a trouser press, and a dryer are available. The property features a large garden at its heart, laid out in Arab Andalusian style, with four flowerbeds planted with mature citrus trees, aromatic plants, and local flowers. Air conditioning, heating, a mini-bar, and a sitting area are standard in each room.

“This family-run property strikes me as an oasis within the Fes el Bali. I found its intimate atmosphere and focus on local culture particularly appealing, along with the draw of an extensive wellness center. The courtyard garden and rooftop bar appear to be highlights, perfect for enjoying the tasting menus.”
