We really enjoyed our stay here. Friendly staff who were so helpful. Excellent breakfast and we really loved the mint tea. Our room was super clean and beautifully designed. The only negative- the hotel could be more presentable from the outside- it feels like youre walking down a run down alleyway when you turn in off the road. Saying that, if we were to return to marrakech, we will definitely stay again.

Pleasant stay

It was on a busy little street which might be daunting to walk on for some. The staff are really sweet. Our room was plenty big. And felt lovely and clean. Pool was warm. The only con to the rooms, I’d say is that the tv didn’t work (despite several calls to have it repaired) and the cosmetics are low standard; you expect nicer oily shampoos / shower gel etc in a place like Marrakesh. A lot nicer. There is a man who seems to hover at breakfast time. Is it the owner? He doesn’t help the staff but rather lingers and it’s a bit odd really :)

An Oasis in the Medina

When we arrived we thought we had gone to the wrong place as the outside is very rough, but as soon as you walk through the door you are met with an oasis of calm. The hotel was lovely and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was fantastic with the exception of the bathroom which was awful and very dark. If it hadn’t been for the bathroom I would have given the hotel 5 stars.

Decent Stay in Marrakech

Decent hotel with a large pool and spacious rooms. Great service from Ahmed. Located a bit far out of the Medina on the outskirts. Not the greatest value. Overall, I enjoyed my stay, but would get a better deal and a better location elsewhere next time.

Would love to stay again

Stayed in Riad Palais Blanc for three nights. The hotel is stunning with a large pool area. It is quite shaded, but there is also a terraced if you would like more sun. Breakfast was perfect. Pastries, fruit, nuts, breads and traditional tagines too. Loads of options to suit my food allergies which was great. The staff were extremely helpful. The manager spoke perfect English and was great at offering recommendations of things to do in Marrakech. The location is ideal - close enough to everything without being too close to the hustle and bustle of the Medina.

Amazing experience in Marrakesh

First time ever in Marrakesh and this hotel is an oasis from the madness of the medina. Beautiful room extremely spacious with its own private terrace (we booked the suite and it was definitely worth it). Very good breakfast variety, attentive staff, quite large pool for a riad hotel, delicious light lunch and walking distance from main attractions. Would stay there again for sure. It has a feeling of 1001 nights meet prince of persia

Amazing place to stay

Staying at Palais Blanc was one of the best experiences in Marrakech. I've been to Marrakech on numerous occasions, this was the first time I actually preferred staying in the hotel rather than going out. I was after a relaxing stay and that's exactly what we got. Inside the hotel all you'll hear is the sound of birds. As soon as you leave the alley way leading to the hotel you're immersed in the madness that is Marrakech. The staff at the hotel were amazing, and an issue we had was dealt with in a manner way above our expectations. It truly is European customer service. The rooms are beautifully decorated, just as the photos show. There's a beautiful scent of oranges throughout the hotel. For us, there's no need to look for another place to stay next time we visit the city.

My girlfriend & I had an amazing 4 night break at Palaise Blanc. The pool is lovely with sunshine on it all day the rooms are spacious with great outside space. Only negative is the beds by pool are plastic so not so comfortable. The staff are great & so friendly, especially Ahmed who couldn't have been more helpful. Shhhh. We will definitely return .

Beautiful hidden gem

This little gem is easy to miss from the outside. But once you enter the riad, it's feels like you are stepping into a superb quiet oasis, and forget that you are in the touristic center of such a busy city. We arrived late in the evening, but still got a very warm welcome. We also got a room upgrade, so we ended up staying in this amazing suit, with it's own veranda. The room was immaculate, and had so much character - it was lovely. The staff was very friendly, and offered to arrange early breakfast for us, as we were scheduled to leave before they normally served breakfast. Can't recommend this place enough, will definitely stay there when we visit again.
