Palais Tara & Spa

A great place to escape the hustle and bustle of Marrakech. A beautiful building, excellent & comfortable rooms, great food and spa treatments, however the thing that topped all of that was the amazing service. I had let them know that we were celebrating my wife's 50th and there was a lovely cake waiting for us upon arrival. By the end of just a few nights, the staff felt more like friends than staff and really couldn't do enough to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. There are many hotels around the world that could learn a thing or two from this team around what truly exceptional customer service looks like. Well done to you all and we hope to see you again.

Outstanding experience. In the chaos of Marrakesh, this is a conveniently located oasis. It offers peace and tranquillity with exceptional service. The food is delicious, particularly breakfast, and alcohol is served although not on the menu. Our room came with very high quality towels, cotton pads, cotton buds, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel (lovely smell) as well as plenty of tissues and water on arrival. You get a bottle of water with breakfast each morning, it is not replaced in the room. Not a problem! The 1.5l bottles were very reasonably priced. The staff were universally friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. This riad was the highlight of our time in the city. Thank you!

My wife and I visited Marrakech in May 2024. We can’t tell you how lucky we were to have stayed at such an amazing and hospitable place as Palais Tara. From the moment we stepped into the Riad, we were welcomed by the most amazing staff, as well as a beautiful aroma. A lovely young lady called Manar greeted us. She sat us down in a cosy sofa area and asked one of the other hosts to bring us some Moroccan tea and delicious biscuits. Manar did a thorough job patiently spending a good 45 minutes going through everything we needed to know about Marrakech. She told us all the places to visit and helped us plan each of our days there. Then she gave us a tour of the hotel where me met the owners Wamidh and Najat. We can’t tell you just how much it felt like we were meeting our own family members. They were so welcoming and throughout the stay they made sure we had everything we needed. Every day we stayed, they made a point to join us for breakfast for a few minutes to check in on how we were getting on. Najat was so caring that she even took the time and trouble to take my wife to a particular shop to help her buy something she wanted. The restaurant manager, Abde, was also very pleasant and helpful, explaining the menu items, and chatting to us about so many things. He gave us excellent service together with the other hosts, Oumaima and Anass, who were equally delightful, making us feel a part of the family. The room we had was on the first floor and a lovely size. From the moment we stepped in, we could see the care that had been taken to provide every facility possible. We had to stop to take photos of the beautiful towel arrangement of two swans and rose petals that greeted us on the tables and in the bathroom. On one of the days my wife and I indulged in one of the Hammam’s at the Riad, which was at an extremely reasonable price and left us feeling refreshed after a long day out touring. Najat had gone out of her way to arrange a special late dinner for us that day as well. The food was lovely, although we did try the restaurants outside mostly but enjoyed the breakfast at the Riad every day. It goes without saying that staying at Palais Tara was one of the most memorable parts of our holiday. The Riad was in the perfect location in the heart of Marrakech. We stayed there for four nights and would happily go back there any time. If we could give 6 stars out of 5, we would for the time we spent there. This place is triple AAA* and we would definitely recommend a stay there. A huge thumbs up and thank you to Wamidh, Najat and their whole team that didn’t leave any stone unturned to make this experience as perfect as possible.

As a first timer coming to Marrakech, our tour company (Moroccan Tours) booked this riad for us and it was amazing. It felt close to everything and easy to get to Jemaa El-Fnaa Square. When we walked in we were immediately transported to beautiful, colorful and friendly home. This riad had a few floors. The rooftop was the location for our yummy breakfasts and pretty views. The roof top was easy to access via stairs or the elevator. There was a pool on the roof but we never had a chance to dive in. The whole staff deserves a shout out for their friendliness and eagerness to make sure we were happy.

Fantastic stay at this beautiful Riad in the heart of the Medina. Super location as very close to the main square. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. Came for my friends birthday and I contacted them in advance to request birthday mimosas with breakfast and asked where I could get balloons and they said they'd take care of everything as we were travelling at the time. Her birthday morning Abdulilah had prepared a gorgeous table with a banner and balloons, bottle of prosecco and flowers and a cake. He was a fabulous host throughout. I recommend a massage and a day by the pool. 5 stars a round! Loved our stay :)

What a hidden gem! We were so lucky to have found this Riad in a quiet street in the Medina. The location, facilities, rooms, and service were all amazing. The rooftop pool was a bonus given the temperature and a welcome reprieve from the hustle and bustle. The spa experience was also fabulous with a traditional Hammam and a massage afterwards - all on site! Special thanks to Abdul and Abdullah who looked after us so well during our stay, to all on Reception that helped us with all our excursions, spa bookings and general questions, and to the housekeeping team who kept the whole place spotless. We had a wonderful few days and would highly recommend!
