The Almohad Sultan Yaqub al-Mansur (XII century) projected build the largest mosque in the world after the Samarra in Iraq. The works were abandoned after his death in 1199. The tower should be more than 60 meters, but only reached 44. At present, the appearance of the mosque is that of a thick forest of columns in which stands the great tower, the minaret sister then became the Giralda of Seville and the Kutubiyya mosque in Marrakech.

In the courtyard of the mosque also built the mausoleum of Mohammed V, the first king of independent Morocco, which is also buried his son and successor Hassan II, father of present king.

Four Seasons Hotel Rabat At Kasr Al Bahr

5/5 Excellent

"Exquisite hotel with a very friendly and helpful staff. It's a great property with superb gardens and ocean views, but it sits at some distance from those parts of the city with shops, restaurants, and cafes. The Medina section is a bit too far to walk to, but is just a short taxi ride away. "

Fairmont La Marina Rabat Sale Hotel And Residences

5/5 Excellent

"My sister and I had a wonderful stay at the Fairmont Rabat while attending a wedding. The hotel is stunning — spotless, luxurious, and beautifully designed. One of the highlights of our stay was Mohammed, the concierge. He was incredibly helpful, arranging a hotel driver, booking a hair salon, and recommending excellent restaurants. His kindness and resourcefulness truly made our experience seamless and special. The location is perfect — situated right along the Marina Waterfront. We loved taking a little rowboat (just 5 dirhams!) across the water into old town Rabat to explore the markets and shop local. It was such a charming and easy adventure. We also spent a relaxing day by the pool and enjoyed the food there — everything we ate throughout the trip was delicious. Another sweet touch is how pet-friendly the Fairmont is. We adored greeting Tiffany, the hotel’s lovely dog, every day. She made our mornings brighter. Rabat is such a beautiful city, and the Fairmont was the perfect home base. We can’t wait to return."
