Palais Amani review: our verdict
The garden is the first thing you notice at Palais Amani: tree-lined paths where the scent of orange blossom lingers, peaceful enough to pause for a mint tea and some pastries before diving back into the alleys of Fès El Bali.
Serving as both a hotel and a spa, the palace welcomes both families on stay and passing visitors. The hammam and massages are of high quality, set in impeccable surroundings with simple hospitality and multilingual exchanges. Tea, served according to tradition, is part of the ritual. You can also take a Moroccan cooking class here. Those looking for a lively hotel with evenings and music will be mistaken for their address: here, the day ends in the quiet of the garden.
The best deal: a tea break in the garden, without booking a room. The best time slot: a hammam followed by a massage in the late afternoon, after the medina.
