Hotels in Meknes — What to Expect
Often overshadowed by its famous neighbors, this imperial city offers a more relaxed pace while still delivering the full force of Moroccan history. The main draw is the monumental scale of Sultan Moulay Ismail's 17th-century vision, best seen at the massive Bab Mansour gate and the sprawling Heri es-Souani granaries. Wandering the medina here feels less intense, where you can browse the Place el-Hedim and find authentic crafts without the crowds. Don't miss the nearby Roman ruins of Volubilis for a stunning day trip into antiquity.
Meknes works well as a base for exploring the region or a stop on a rail journey between Fes and Rabat, with good train connections to both. The Ville Nouvelle, with its wide boulevards and cafes, is ideal for those preferring modern conveniences, while the medina area suits travelers seeking traditional atmosphere. It's a great fit for history enthusiasts, couples, and independent travelers looking for an authentic imperial city experience without the frenzy.
On HOTEVI, you'll find around 18 places to stay in Meknes, reflecting the city's character. Options are predominantly good-value guesthouses (riads) within the old city walls and comfortable, mid-range hotels in the newer district, offering straightforward access and reliable comfort for your exploration.
