Fairmont Tazi Palace, located in the heart of Tangier, Morocco, officially opened on November 1, 2022. Originally built in the 1920s for the king’s advisor, the palace has been carefully restored and transformed into an incredible luxury property. Featuring 133 rooms, suites and penthouses including one Signature Suite, two Penthouses, and one Katara Suite, guests will experience lavish accommodation, a wide range of culinary venues, and rejuvenating wellness offerings, all within an idyllic setting celebrating rich Moroccan history and culture.
Across the expansive grounds, the property’s landscaping reflects a unique blend between Arab and Andalusian cultures: the native, centenary eucalyptus trees have been preserved, and now live alongside thriving palm, olive, citrus, and pomegranate groves. Situated high above the city, the property offers spectacular views of Tangier’s Old Town and the verdant forest below.
Fairmont Tazi Palace is ideally located just ten minutes away from the city centre of Tangier, making it the perfect base for exploring all that Morocco’s hidden gem destination has to offer. Tangier is one of the oldest cities in Morocco, having existed for over 2500 years, and has the illustrious history to match. It is often referred to as the White City because of the pristine white houses spread across the city but you will also find an array of multicultural architectural influences from majestic Middle Eastern inspired temples to Byzantine Era cobblestone streets. Throughout the city you will be able to enjoy picturesque ocean views as the Atlantic meets the Mediterranean.
As you wander the streets of Tangier you will be following in the footsteps of some of the 20th century’s most iconic cultural figures including the likes of Henri Matisse, Samuel Beckett, Ernest Hemingway, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones, who once came to Tangier in search of escapism and inspiration. You may also recognise Tangier as the setting for cult films such as 007 Spectre, Inception, and Only Lovers Left Alive.
