Beautiful place to stay in an excellent location. Close to the square and also Medina entrance.
Pick up spot for tours was close by.
Staff were all very friendly and helpful with anything we needed. I would definitely stay here again.
Wonderful helpful staff, great breakfast included and overall we felt relaxed and that we’d chosen an amazing place to stay, the shortest of walks from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech yet an oasis of calm!
We stayed here for 3 nights and enjoy d every minute. The staff were all so kind, helpful and polite.
We enjoyed all aspects of the hotel- beautiful & peaceful sitting area, roof top terrace, pool area, spa time, and our beautiful rooms.
Breakfast was fresh and delicious each morning!
For our first trip to Marrakech, we could not have asked for a better Riad than Palais Tara. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a family feeling, coziness and intricate hospitality. The room was wonderful with its antique feeling and warmth but the star of the property is the staff. For the 5 days we were there, Hasna, Ikram and the restaurant staff were simply wonderful to us and always made sure we had everything to make our stay comfortable. It is literally a stone's throw of a walk to Jemaa El Fnaa (I found a shortcut through Hasna). If I really had to nitpick on something, it is that the property does not have an ironing board/iron in the rooms. Other than that, I would without hesitation return to Palais Tara.
A nice Riad - well located managed by very friendly and nice people trying to do their best but still young in their experience - cleaning stuff was great -
my only remark is about the noise of some families that came in numbers with children - all that giving a more holidays hotel atmosphere rather then a Riad you could expect
Nice Riad in center of Medina. Very friendly staff. No alcohol served in the bar.
Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024

The Palais Tara & Spa was outstanding! You will not find a better place to stay in Marrakech. We chose this accommodation from the wonderful reviews and pics posted on Hotels.com. Very reasonable, too. I highly recommend. They were so accommodating, friendly and a caring group. I had a medical emergency and had to be hospitalized and they were so caring for me and my roommate. I will definitely stay here if I get to return to Marrakesh. Barbara T
A complete hidden gem. All the staff were amazing and friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. They gave us lots of helpful advice for surviving Marrakesh. There was always someone in reception. The breakfast was amazing and different everyday, although we only found out you could order eggs on the last morning.
The roof top pool and terrace was lovely and quiet. Perfect for cooling off after exploring the city.
I can highly recommend Palais Tara & Spa. What an amazing experience we had. The staff were incredible. Felt like a family by the time we left. We were taken such good care of. The people above us were very loud. They offered to move us and showed us a choice of two other rooms. Breakfast was always awesome. They arranged our transportation to and from the airport, we stayed up with staff and other guests to watch the African Cup. Very close to everything….within minutes of the main square. The Riad is spotless. Everything was very clean. It is beautiful. Just a wonderful Riad and wonderful staff. I can recommend them without any hesitation.
If you are going to Marrakech this is where you should stay- a beautifully restored typical classic Moroccan home with excellent staff and Management, right in the middle of the Medina. This is not a Hilton or a Marriott, it is unique to Marrakech and so much better than the typical chain hotel!
Palais Tara & Spa in Marrakech was even more than we expected. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and full of charm, but what truly made our stay special was the amazing staff. Everyone was so warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, and they went out of their way to make us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. Their kindness and hospitality made all the difference. We left feeling grateful for such a wonderful experience and would happily stay here again.
We stayed at several riads during our tour of Morocco and Palais Tara was by far the best. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed. The riad itself is beautiful and impeccably maintained. What truly set Palais Tara apart was the level of service from everyone. They held our luggage after check-out, provided excellent laundry service, and even personally walked us to our transportation. If you’re visiting Marrakesh and want an authentic riad experience with truly outstanding service, Palais Tara is the place to stay. We would return without hesitation.
