Meknès Hotels and Accommodation

Meknes is the capital of the Meknes-Tafilalet region in Morocco. It is also known as one of Morocco's Imperial cities. Meknes reminds many visitors of a less crowded Imperial Capitol. Although Meknes is thought of as the agricultural center of Meknes-Tafilalet, there are lots of things for visitors to see and do. Meknes has an Old Town, known as Medina and a New Town, known as Ville Nouvelle. Don't miss the Moulay Ismail landmarks, the many shops situated on the very narrow streets of Medina, and what is known as the Jewish Quarter. Meknes has a main square, El-Hdim, that is also quite worthy of your attention. Musicians and other entertaining folks gather here for the pleasure of the locals, and any visitors as well.

You will want to be sure to visit the Medersa Bou Inania, which is a school of the Koran with beautiful architecture and style, built in the 14th century. The Mausoleum of Moulay in Meknes, which was constructed in the 18th century, is not to be missed. When it's time to find something to eat, you'll want to look along the streets that lead from Old Town into New Town for the best restaurants. Also, you must experience the Moroccan mint tea, preferably on a terrace which overlooks the city. Most of the hotels in Meknes are in Ville Nouvelle. As it is not really a “touristy” type of city, Meknes has some hotels where only French or Arabic is spoken.
